Fix Crane

Fix Crane is an agent of the Department of Floaters. He is written by Astral Void.

Appearance
Fix is about 6'1. He's very thin as a result of severe malnutrition and has a lot of scars. His hair is black and spiky, his eyes are brown, and he's fairly attractive. He usually wears tight black clothes.

Personality
Above all, Fix is blunt, crude and direct. He refuses to play games and will usually cut directly through conversations to force others to get to the point. He also refuses to deal with other people's problems and will usually tell them to sort it out. However, he is very touchy about his lack of past or personality, and will react badly to any talk of this. He enjoys music and art, quite likes cats and generally enjoys conversations.

Abilities
Fix has an organism (either parasite or symbiont, the exact details are unknown) in his heart. Whenever he experiences anything that leads to a rush of adrenaline, his nails become lethal claws, his senses become drastically enhanced and his agility and sense of balance greatly improve. However, if he consumes blood, it acts as a euphoric and a soporific- he ends up in a state of sleep happiness that is almost impossible to break out of until it wears off. Consuming blood, then, is almost always a Very Bad Idea.

History
Fix originated in a story written by Astral Void. The story was a future dystopia in which a despotic government crushed the poor and abused them for their own ends. Fix was one of thirteen youths abducted who were infected with the parasite/symbiont and had their memories wiped in an attempt to create super soldiers. Unfortunately, it all went wrong: the memory wipe didn't remove emotions, so when the youths awoke with no memories, confronted by people they hated, they attacked, wiping out more than half of the government. Five were killed as they tried to escape, five more were killed by the mob, two stopped to rest, consumed blood and were killed, leaving Fix as the only survivor. Astral Void intended him to become a rebel, leading a revolution against the (hurriedly reformed) government, but upon realising she had no plot, she decided to make him an agent instead. Fix then fell through a plot hole, landing in the Marquis de Sod's office, and after being fixed, named and convinced, he joined the PPC. Fix was assigned to The Carver, and was expected to transfer away- instead, however, he managed to beat her at her own game, and was rewarded by being permanently partnered with her. He has taken this in stride.

Trivia

 * The fact that his name is the name of the Summer Knight is a coincidence.
 * As is his similarity to werewolves and Wolverine.
 * His last name is a tribute to the singer for Australian industrial duo Shiv-R, Pete Crane. Astral Void was listening to their song 'Zeitgeist' on repeat as she thought up Fix's story, and upon making him an agent, decided to work with what she had.

Missions

 * Interlude: Fire and Whispers
