Name: Cleisthenes Burton. Usually goes by Burton, for obvious reasons.
Age: 41
Sex: Male
Appearance: Standing 5'11" with dark brown hair and one brown eye, Burton is easily recognizable by the empty socket where his left eye used to be. He usually lets his hair fall over the socket, as some find it disturbing.
Biography: Cleisthenes Burton was always fascinated by machines. As a boy growing up, he constantly begged his parents to buy him the robot kits that were the hottest toy at the time. The things he created, though, were far from standard. He once combined the pieces from several kits to construct a mechanical spider, which he used to scare his older sister. This talent for robotics led him to serve in the military's experimental new Synthetic Services branch. Burton was assigned to a mind-linked air reconnaissance drone when the cyber-neural interface malfunctioned, burning away his left eye and portions of his hypothalamus. The brain damage left him unable to feel some emotions, and as a result he had difficulty adjusting to civilian life after his discharge. He bummed around for a few years, doing odd jobs here and there, until he was contacted by an ExoCorp recruiter looking for a roboticist for the Genesis Project. Sensing an opportunity to start fresh, he joined up.
