Richard 'Rich' Story (Specs Two)
Full name: Richard Fenster Story
Biography: A computer genius par excellence (and a nerd
in the most classic socially-awkward sense), Rich went to college in his native Seattle,
breezing through his classes by day and hacking into underprotected computer
systems with a group of like-minded friends all night. At least, until his
junior year, when an FBI sting rounded up a good three-quarters of his fellow hackers and put most
of them in jail. Through an incredibly lucky fluke Rich was neither caught nor implicated--his
record is utterly clean--and once he got over his scare he was not slow to see it as an opportunity.
A chance to go head-to-head with the best hackers in the nation and prove who was the best?
(A chance to do all sorts of not-quite-legal things under the protective
wing of the government?) That sounded much more interesting than anything else he'd
thought of to date.
Trivia: Despite being one of the team's techs and therefore seldom, if ever, actually in the line of fire, Rich is one of the best shots on the team, if not the fastest draw. Author's note: That's not his PDA. Rich hates PDAs; he thinks they're idiotic overpriced executive toys. However, Simon most certainly did not ask him to break into that one and copy out the notes inside it. |
