Another NPC: Mad Jump Scientist and Bodyguard

Professor Juliux Rask

"The power to control Spacetime is the greatest power in the universe!" 

8889E8: Age 46, Scholar.

Zealously dedicated to researching the secrets of greater Jump technology and connections to the Ancients and related academic fields. As a villain, he is more of the driving force of activities, i.e., going to place X to investigate Y for scientific breakthroughs to gain power. His skill set is not very antagonistic towards possible player groups, only his goals. He would surround himself with useful people, possibly employing characters, probably in cahoots with other very antagonist other parties - he could be partnered with criminals, greedy megacorps, powerhungry governments, and the like - any of which might be Zhodani fronts.

Relevant Event: Stole research from an Enemy. I imagine this might be Jahn Rax . (If you read this, Bob, I named this character before getting the event and thinking about connecting it to your character, but now I think this guy abused similar initials and names as part of the event).

ADA872: Age 38, Rogue (Enforcer)

Rask's Sword Worlder* bodyguard with a thick accent (those familiar with that culture would recognize her accent is very low class). The nature of her relationship with Rask is not clear, it doesn't appear to be romantic. Perhaps she appreciates his lack of concern for her somewhat aggressive demeanor. Or perhaps something in their past explains her dedication to him. I imagine a Social Standing this low (lowered by the School of Hard Knocks) to be suggestive of a significant lack of empathy.
