Description
“I am Bonnie, he is Clyde” Welcome phrase from Zoe and П-Well to the officer in command on their first day of work.
Zoe Nemova has worked and gone through a lot to become one of the best of the Clockmakers Team. Daughter of an important Tusguskan banker, she has suffered from a very serious degenerative illness since she was eight years old, produced by the mutation of an ancient American military virus. To afford the onerous biomedical treatments in Praxis, Lev Nemov, Zoe’s father, became involved in a high risk business deviating funds from banks and trafficking economic information from the Khruleff family to the Geiger family. Zoe’s operations were a success, although at 16, wetware and biosynthetic organs had already substituted 60% of her body. When everything seemed to be all right, Lev’s business went awry and the Khruleff detected the data filtration. Nemov fell into disgrace, was kidnapped by the Khruleff family and an assassination ordered against Zoe and her mother. However, Nemov’s deal with the Geiger included five years’ protection for his family. Given a new identity, Zoe studied Engineering and Cybernetics, at the same time learning from her bodyguards how to shoot and live in the shadows. When the five years ended, Zoe and her mother became fugitives, with no more protection than their speed, skills and wit. In the following years Zoe would jump from cities to astroports, from orbital bases to space colonies, working as a technician and mechanic, studying and learning at the same time, only one step ahead of the Khruleff. Thanks to her efforts and talent, Zoe entered the exclusive group of Praxis’ ArTecnodivarious, the elite of cyberengineers.
