While crossing the North American Nations, Johnathan came upon a Wuxing convoy being hijacked by smugglers; the convoy's own security being pinned down by heavy auto-fire. Intervening, John managed to kill several of the smugglers and shift the tide of the firefight. When asked his motive in the rescue, Johnathan replied that he was just looking for work. In gratitude, the detail's security chief put the freelance madman in contact with a Mr. Johnson; opening the door for Johnathan that lead into the world of the Shadowrun.... Johnathan, along with Nova and Anne-Marie, started the A-Team under the supervision of former Shadowrunner Roy "Burning" Embers. On the battlefield he is especially dangerous, utilizing the 'kick down the door, kill everything in sight, ask questions later' methods he was trained with. For what he lacks in planning and foresight, Johnathan makes up for in volume of firepower; his abilities extending into the realms of heavy weaponry and launched explosives. On occasion, Johnathan is known to have blinding moments of insight, which hints at a deeper desire to maybe think through his actions before executing a plan of attack. During the A-Team's liberation of Glitch from Renraku, Johnathan was thought killed in a rocket attack which disabled the 'Van of Idiocy' and seriously wounded everyone else inside. With a severed arm and a chest cavity run through with the remains of a gatling gun, there wasn't much left to put back together -- but his corpse was discovered in time for resuscitation and reconstruction under the capable medicine of the mysterious organ-legger, Dr. Black. Using a variety of cyber and biotechnology, the Shadowrunner was rebuilt to specification with parts ranging from a replacement cyberchest, to a "recycled" cyberarm loaded with goodies (once belonging, he later discovered, to someone named Brundle). Owing Dr. Black more than his life, John found himself involuntarily serving the dead body man as a sleeper-on-call. So as he attempts to tackle his new lifestyle, John busies himself learning to co-exist with his "Brundle-Arm" (on occasion seeming to have an agenda all its own) while looking for new ways to somehow dodge his inevitable date with the affluent homosexual, Big Gay Al.
 * Bio:** Hailing from Vancouver, Johnathan Myers lived a relatively normal and uneventful life until he was 16-years-old. On their way home from a weekend excursion, his family's station wagon was caught up in the middle of a religious riot. In the ensuing mayhem, his father was trampled to death and his mother and sister burned alive in a vehicle fire -- needless to say, from that day forth, Johnathan had a few hang-ups about God and religious faith. He enrolled himself in a private military academy, and graduated with honors into the enlisted ranks of the Army. At 22, during a heated debate with a fellow soldier over the existence of God, what small threads of sanity John retained snapped; and in the ensuing struggle, his comrade-in-arms received upwards of 27 stab wounds. Thrown into the brig for murder, Johnathan managed to escape 2 months later while in transit to his Courts-Martial hearing. With a great deal of stolen cred, he managed to hire a decker and erase his identity, entering the realm of the SINless. He then wandered the countryside, heading south toward the CityState of Seattle.
