Prometheans, both citizens and proles, generally display the following traits regardless of occupation or station.
Character Types
(Ex) Legionnaire.
You are one of the elite soldier-citizens of Prometheus, trained in the use of the much feared power armoured battle-suits of your metro-zone. You have either completed your service or are still serving in one of the dreaded cyber-legions and may have even been rewarded with some level of bionic enhancement. You are a hardened professional techno-soldier who has prevailed against the horrors of the outside world thanks to your training and the superior technology of your weapons and equipment.
Ex-gladiator.
You are a hardened survivor of the Promethean arena and battle pits. You have earned your freedom by entertaining the crowds with bloody combat. Over time you have lost count of the enemies you have defeated but they have included all types of mutants and monsters. Consequently you have little fear from what the outside world has to offer as you have already encountered much of the worst of it. Since gaining your freedom you have found that your combat skills are in much demand outside the arena. At least it stops life from becoming boring.
Sekutor.
You are a member of the sinister internal security force of Prometheus. You are responsible for rooting out mutants, deviants and other traitors, as well as maintaining general law and order. You are constantly on the alert for anarchists and other subversives, many of who are extremely dangerous and desperate. Consequently your combat skills are of a high order and you are normally partnered with a security panzer. It is because of people like you that Prometheus remains strong.
Persekutor.
You are part of a specialised group of internal security agents that protect Prometheus from the threat of psychers, demons and other psychic forces. You have been carefully selected for your suitability and receive special training and equipment to prepare you for the dangers you will encounter. The enemy you hunt is insidious and cunning so you have to operate carefully but resolutely. Your continued efforts allow other citizens to sleep safely at night.
Panzer.
You are one of the general combat panzers produced in the thousands by auto-facs in the metro-zone. You are based on a simple, well-proven design and are capable of most combat missions. Your programming has made you loyal to both your companions and your city as well as an implacable enemy to your foes. As you continue to operate your own personality is developing, making you a unique entity despite your mass production background.
Levy Soldier.
You are a soldier in the Promethean Levies, recruited from the teeming masses of the Proles and trained to defend your metro-zone. The Legionnaires may get the glory but you know it is the Levies that do most of the fighting. However, if you survive for long enough you can earn your citizenship and enjoy all the privileges that go with it. Life as a Levy is dangerous but it is better than the drudgery of the factory floor. In the meantime, you survive through a combination of skill, instinct, group loyalty and luck.
