Genetic modifications none Synthetic modifications Cybernetic replacements for arms, legs, and eyes (resulting from injuries sustained during shuttle crash) Reason for immigrating Private secure transit courier; relocating to new source of business Biography Jay Bridwell is the youngest son of Edgar and Bridget Bridwell, of Queens, NYC.
The Bridwells have built a small but respected secure and discreet (yet above board) small-goods interstellar shipping company - one step above smugglers, and a smaller operation than most large-scale interstellar shipping operations.
Jay obtained his degree to go into the family business as a propulsion engineer. After rising to Senior Engineer, he was severely injured in a station-to-surface shuttle crash on Mars caused by a collision with errant satellite debris.
Jay survived, but his arms and legs could not be saved; severe skull fractures cost him his eyes as well. He spent a year recovering before returning to work. Unable to tolerate low-level photonic radiation in the engine rooms of the family ships, he instead trained as a pilot.
Jay is looking to relocate to Eisa due to a steady stream of courier jobs from the region.
His experiences as a reluctant cyborg, as well as time spent with medical synths and robots while recovering in a hospital for nearly a year have given Jay an interest in robot rights - not a far stretch from his family's long history of old-style New York union rights fights and IWW socialism. last updated: 2017-11-23 03:54:24
