Vorgan Shex

Previously a neighponese scientist and programmer that was involved in the creation and refinement of the mobile suit initiatives user interface, Shex was removed from the project as a result of his fascination and multiple attempts to meld pilots more completely with their suits. A pursuit that was both intended to enhance the response time of the suits to their pilots commands at the cost of their previous bodies (post nerve assimilation and grafting) and as a way for him to escape the disease that threatened to claim his life. Disgraced and wanted on several charges of illegal experimentation on both willing and unwilling subjects, he fled with his last remaining days to a forgotten belt of wreckage on the edge of neighpon controlled space. It was however in the wreckage that he found his solution and his ascension. The 'Reactivation stone' as he now calls it, was discovered in the hold of one of the many derelicts of the belt. Examining it, he could not determine if it was of either magical or technological origin, but it all the same made any technology around it flicker with life, and even seemed to revitalize him through the simple act of holding it. Compelled to complete his previous work and escape death, he slowly but surely began to replace his ailing body with the resources offered by the wreckage field until all but his soul, seemingly now contained and sustained by the stone, was replaced with metal. With the stones power to breath life into dead tech, Vorgan has begun the reconstruction of the derelict field into his new abode. Content to work and while away the years in efficient solitude.

While he might enjoy his lonely existence surrounded by his creations, he is not entirely self-sufficient. He does require materials and tools that can not be salvaged or manufactured within his domain. As such, he attempts to keep a small network of middlemen to acquire such needed resources in exchange for access to his advancements, reautomated 'labor force', and perhaps even physical upgrades to their bodies. Some even seek him out in a last ditch effort to escape their own illnesses through the radical and highly experimental treatments that the old automaton revels in. The saving of a life second to the discovery's that might be made; whether such discoveries be made in success of failure.

It is rare, but Vorgan has been known to venture beyond his lair in search of exceptionally rare items, resources, celestial events, or creatures that he desires to collect or study for seemingly little other reason then to be there when it happens and/or study these events.
