As the story goes...
Predominantly known as “Ransom,” ace hacker [!#ERROR] <!--N1CE TRY P4L--> knew the ins-and-outs of the hypernet like the back of his neuro-sim. In the morning, he used his void laser barebow to launch corrupt data into the systems of Deepwater Dublin. In the evening, he stole nuclear codes to distract from his plan to rename Earth to “Ransom World.”
As demand for his <!--5UP3R C00L 4ND 1MPR3S5IVE--> skills grew, Ransom’s enthusiasm for corruption began to rub up against the limitations of reality. He wove together a series of jobs involving malware infused tiger drones, a stolen logic matrix core, and several “reply all” emails. The resulting chaos gave the Algorithmic Houses enough of a reason to declare war against one another. More importantly, it gave Ransom everything he needed to digitize his consciousness.
Fusing with the hypernet granted him unlimited freedom, dangerous new powers, and a maniacal ego <!--N0 1T D1DN#U+0027T--> MBFC created the Virus Latrodectus system to classify and monitor his existence. Ransom rendered it obsolete 13 seconds after launch. His lightning-fast reaction and metaphysical techno infiltration abilities remained legendary long after he ceased operations in Miami Dome.
Ransom’s self-invited arrival came as a shock to many in Valhalla. After much thought, Odin declared that cyberwarfare was still warfare and permitted him to stay. Gnash is henceforth banned from the Hall of Computers, however.
