Characteristics:
Eugene was one of the partially-infected survivor cases that was brought in when Mobile Security Forces were starting to locate infected and trace the locations of High Value Individuals to Zephyr's offices in Fairview. Initial documentation showed that he had a happy-go-lucky attitude for affairs and was showing classic signs of internalizing fears of what was going on. Some of this is unknown as to whether it originated with the Fairy strain he was infected with. Eventually, he (now sie) is adapting quickly to life in the mutated present, showing an aptitude for wanting to help others.
General Appearance
Euoia has been wearing a white and blue magical girl outfit which is suitable for being a Rainbow Warrior. Minor adjustments are made in nano-fab clothing when she develops wings. The magical girl outfit seems to be based on some cosplay for a forgotten show.
Background
Born in New Holland, Pennsylvania, Eugene Augustus Underwood was the eldest child of two hippies that never stopped the free love of the 60s and 70s. The Underwoods lived a modest life in a small farm. Eugene Abigail Underwood (father) and Sara Flemming Underwood (mother) were actually a pair of eccentric rich folk who made more money then they could ever want to spend during the late 70s with the riches trickling down from Eugene Abigail's father, the late Edward Augustus Underwood's coal mining business.
Eugene's siblings number two girls, Elanor and Michelle, who both looked up to their brother as a dreamer for a bright future. Eugene went through public school, in spite of the rising homeschooling trend that had been slowly rising. After spending time on the wrestling team, he later went into acting, and was a major player in a few school plays. He also had a bi-monthly column in the paper, giving advice to the students of the school about various questions they might have. He graduated as valedictorian of his class, and went on to Massachusetts Institute of Technology to study robotics.
While studying robotics at MIT, he saw the rise of nanotechnology and shifted majors to go into nanotechnology research. While he wasn't a leading mind snagged into private industry for his skills, Eugene did stay on at MIT as a lab assistant and eventually graduated with a doctorate in Medical Engineering and Medical Physics with a specialization in nanotechnology.
When society decided to crumble due to the outbreak of the Prometheus virus, Eugene was in a secure, well stocked lab using remote nanites to alter rat dna to remove birth defects at a remote lab for InTech Pharmaceutical Research and Development. Eugene was working when the outbreak occurred. Sealed in his lab, his research continued with no notice of what was going on.
Eventually, clean food and water supplies were running dreadfully low. Each scav run he would do turned up with less and less edible food and higher chances of running into infected. Lastly, the HazMat suit he was using started to develop a gash in it after his last scrubbing down from a trip outside. Eugene had no where else to turn to... and then he picked up a broadcast from Zephyr.
It took Eugene a few weeks to establish a satellite network connection with Zephyr's labs in Fairview. He was granted the Login name EU-OIA short for Eugene Underwood - Office of Internal Affairs. Through this network connection, he learned the fate of everything that happened outside, and offered to turn over his test subjects and the little research he had for a guarantee that he could continue trying to further what Zephyr was doing to find a cure or a temporary fix to buy more time for the long run. He admitted his food supplies were running out, and that containment was breached. In order to save on supplies, he secured as much of the lab as he could that would be difficult for infected to breach and went to sleep. Eugene sighed and saw one last message on the screen. A thank you for the donation of his research notes and an assurance that they will send a force over to extract him.
Eugene woke up, barely remembering anything, scared of why he was hooked up to IVs, and uncertain of who he was. Memory of his name was masked by the fairy nanites he was infected with.... and the only clue he had was a login name when the extraction team blew open the lab's door, giving him a concussion. Later, he woke, memory of everything temporarily gone... and only his log-in name imprinted in his mind.
