Name: Shif'Ziihad vas Usela (or Shif)
Race: Quarian
Class: Engineer
Biotics: None
Age: 29
Height/Weight/Bodytype: 5'7"/180lbs/Average Build by Quarian standards
General Appearance: (See above image)
Personality: Paranoid, and a bit flighty, Shif is the kind of guy who is prone to assuming the worst is bound to happen in any given situation. When he's not worrying over trivial things he is poite, though cautious about who he lets get close to him. He can be easily excited.
Normally Carries: Omni-tool, miscellaneous wires, an older issue of Fornax, modified assault rifle, shotgun, explosives and grenades.
Quirks: Shif can't stand to stay in one place too long, and is fascinated with explosions and fire. If you happen to bring up anything involving these things, he will literally talk your ear off, or the equivalent depending. He also enjoys observing people...and Asari soap operas.
Motivation: Survival and guilt.
Personal History: Born on the Rayya, Shif'Ziihad was an ambitious Quarian, though he lacked focus. He spent his time learning how to construct as well as deconstruct bombs and various explosives. One such learning experience caused a small fire, which of course caused his access to such materials to be severely limited. Due mainly to the fact that Shif knew his way around things that went "boom", eventually he found himself a part of the Migrant Fleet Marines, though he reluctantly became a part of such. However, the thought of blowing things up soon made the idea much more appealing.
Not everything can go your way forever though, and Shif learned that the hard way. On a mission to collect data his squad was ambushed and wiped out by Geth. Suit punctured and greatly outnumbered Shif was lucky he escaped with just a fever and delusions. Ashamed for being the only one in his squad to make it out alive and for fear of what the others would think, Shif did not return to the Fleet, and now works as a freelancer of sorts, taking odd jobs and occasional sabotage.
