Novice Male Human, Momano Headhunter, and Titan Mercenary
Iconic Framework: Momano Headhunter
Background
Caiden lost his eye and arms when demons raided the caravan he was guarding at the young age of 19. His injuries were more extensive than that but none as immediately disfiguring. A small group of Momano headhunters were tracking the pack of demons but did not catch up in time to prevent the raid.
The Momanos took the young Caiden under their wing, and came to admir his drive to bring the fight to the demons. Caiden received functional prosthetics paid for by his new Momano friends. With them, Caiden was able to rehabilitate his body to a point he could physically accept the techno-wizard cyberware he would eventually receive.
The mental training, however, would become a hurdle. It took years for him to get into the right headspace necessary for techno-wizard cybernetics. Caiden had a lot of anger to work through, and as time passed, self image issues cropped up. His momano brothers didn't give up on him, however, and with their patient tutelage he obtained the mental stability he would need to become a member of the Momanos.
With body and mind in alignment, Caiden was finally time allowed his new cybernetics. The Momano lab team dissected him like a science experiment, taking his old implants out and replacing them with new, improved versions. They installed the ones that would let him finally aid him in killing demons and anything else needing killing.
That was four years ago, and now he has accepted a deal to work with Titan in a small town plagued by troubles. It is his first job not working together with his Momano brothers and sisters, but he believes himself up to the task.
Description
Caiden is 6'0 with slicked back red hair and one green eye. His beard is close cropped and he maintains a well manicured moustache. His arms and eye have been replaced in the latest techno-wizard cybernetics from the Momano labs.

- Bionically Augmented: Momano gain +3 Strength, +1 Agility and +1 Vigor die types—no Trait maximums for these Attributes.
- Cybernetic Techno-Warriors: Momano begin with the following additional cybernetic systems: Armor Plating (1 level), Core Electronics Package, Expanded Detection and Security Array, Nano-Repair System, Optics Package, Targeting Eye.
- Demon Slayers: Momano begin with Occult d8 linked with the Scholar Edge, plus the Monster Slayer Edge.
- Harmony of the Body: Momano start play with Athletics d6, Fighting d6, and the Chi Edge.
- Harmony of the Mind: Momano start play with Academics d6, Performance d6, and the Brave Edge.

- Recognized Defenders: Connections (Momano Sect and Allies) and +1 Persuasion when dealing with those who value the faction's exploits.
- TW Bionic Attunement: The peculiar cybernetics of the Momano are customized. With the order's training and meditations for cyber-psychic attunement, the normal Strain penalty to Psionics rolls for their starting cybernetics is reduced to −1 total, but any further augmentation could throw off this energetic harmony.
- Cybernetic Oddball: Non-TW cybernetics cause catastrophic interference, rendering a Momano's Psionics skill unusable until removed by their sect's armorers.
- Enemies: Momano are despised by demons and monsters. The CS and supremacists hate them, too.
- Limited Expansion: The Momano's base cybernetics use up all personal Strain, ever. Cybernetics may only be expanded by taking the Beyond the Limit Edge, followed by the Upgrade Edge (representing the sect's custom work). Resulting Strain penalties are halved (rounding up). The Cyber-Psychic Alignment Edges may offset Strain penalties.
- Outsider: Incur a −2 penalty to Persuasion rolls with those unfamiliar with Momano heroism.
- Restricted Path: Momano may take no further Arcane Backgrounds.
- Some Piece of Work: Momano's bodies can be Healed as normal, but damage to their TW bionics must be repaired using the lower of Healing or Techno-Wizardry (magical healing, nano-repair systems, etc. have no effect)—only with no "Golden Hour".
