• About

  Hermit is a young man and ridiculously skilled mechanic who can fix anything from toasters to weapons and androids. Still he hides away from the world. Living on rough planet by himself, far from any cities or civilization, like a scavenger, he had earned his nickname.

• Personality

  Though living solitary life he doesn’t actually dislike or avoid people. He just thinks it’s easier to stay away, especially on T77, where the most of the residents are all more and less criminals. It’s somehow tidier and causes less problems.

  Often Hermit seems serious and melancholic presence and it’s not easy to make him laugh. It doesn’t really mean he’s unhappy. Actually he considers himself being at least content most of the time. He is the happiest while working or being useful somehow.

  He is also a thoughtful and careful person who avoids being center of attention and gets anxious if he must make a big number of himself. He likes to think he’s a very neutral party in all big world problems, but he has very strong sense of justice. It sometimes can make his point of view to be very black and white, and mixed with this passion for freedom makes him all but biased.

• History

  Amos never knew his true parents but considering the harsh war-ridden world he was born into it isn’t particularly rare to be an orphan. He was considered lucky, though, since he ended up in the orphanage with some other surviving kids from the wastelands. It was a small facility and the kind and determined people who run it did their best but it was still occasionally attacked by raiders.

  During one of those attacks someone spotted a young, skilled grease monkey, and Amos was snatched by the raiders. For years he worked for them, fixing, building and modifying whatever they needed. He eventually managed to get away, though he believes, it probably wasn’t for good. His old group might still be looking for him, and he doesn’t want anything to do with people like that anymore. It is one of the reasons he left the planet and hides faceless at the outskirts of the known universe.
