Physical Description

Julius Frakes is a hansome, polished ork, with a massive build, standing 6'5" and wearing a gray pin-striped Armante` suit which contrasts his light-green skin tone. He looks to weigh around 275 pounds. There are no severe blemishes on his clean-shaven face except for a few small scars. He wears his black hair pulled back into a small, low tied pony tail that starts at the middle of his neck, and goes no lower than his shoulders.

History --- Julius Frakes was born into a small, one parent family in an ork commune set up in the Puyallup Barrens. He was the oldest of four, and never knew his father. When he was 7 he discovered an old ork changeling who lived in an abandoned library. The old ork saw the will to learn in Julius' eyes, and proceeded to tutor him for years to come. Julius saw this ork as his mentor. And it was the closest thing to a father figure he'd ever had. After several years his sister and 2 brothers ran away, and his mother fell into illness. He stayed by her side all that he could, but she couldn't be helped. She died a few weeks later. So at the age of 16, with his mother dead and his siblings scattered to the winds, Julius left to make a life for himself. Out on the street, with no shelter, and no nuyen, Jules soon found himself a full-fledged squatter. That was until he had his first run-in with a small group of Humanis Policlubbers. He fled, but they persued him. Soon he found himself cornered by three of them, all of them armed. A battle ensued, and Julius killed two of them with his bare hands. The third was pretty scragged. Julius had no idea why he wasn't remorseful, all he knew was that he had to get out--fast. He looted all three of them, collecting about 2,000¥. Using his looted cred, he rented out a small room at a local motel and purchased as much cheap soy-food as he could from a local Stuffer Shack. After the cred was nearly depleted, Julius decided to have a night out on the town with the last of his "petty cash". After a little scouring he decided to wait in the extremely long line of Dante's Inferno. After about an hour he was admitted. The music was raw, the vibrations of the basslines were superb. He actually found himself having a good time. Then he found himself in the middle of a drunken brawl. Suddenly all hell broke loose, and he was right in the middle of the scuffle. He reacted surprisingly quickly, taking down the drunken fighters. He had them down for the count before the bouncers had even reached the bar. Later in the evening he was escorted into the back by a large troll. To his surprise he was offered a job at the club. It turns out that Dante himself had viewed the little skirmish, and was very impressed with Julius' way of handling things. Julius started work as a bouncer for Dante's Inferno. From there he muscled his way up to Dante's personal bodyguard. Dante, truly satisfied with Julius' performance, asked him to begin handling some of the shadier business for the club. Julius readily agreed. Dante even paid for Julius to get spurs and a smartlink installed. Before he knew it he was involved in various assignments from money laundry to wetwork. He found that he particularly enjoyed the latter. After a few years he left Dante's services on very good terms and moved on to shadowrunning. Julius prefers a natural touch to his work, hence the lack of any real "chrome". Instead he's worked at honing his meat body to near perfection. He is a true force to be reconned with, and is by no means to be underestimated at any length. On one of his earliest runs, which took place in the Carribean League, Julius met with a large dose of white phospherous. Leaving his back severaly burned and scarred. In September of 2054, Julius accepted a run where he and a team were to kidnap the newest "anti-everything" punk band--the Acolytes. The band had a concert the next night, and were staying at the Hilton West. Julius was hired into a team who's mission was to kidnap the band and bring them successfully back to the Johnson. A few of the members were natives of Seattle, so they went out for a night on the town. While the others stayed behind at the Hilton. The team split up into 2 groups. Julius' group was to take the ones at the Hilton. While the others were to pick up the stragglers who were scattered about Seattle. Jules' team consisted of himself; Oni, the physad; Smith, the elven samurai; Gloomy, the pacifist mage; Samadi; the mercenary, Darren, the human sammy; and Lorthian, the raven shaman. After formulating a loose plan on capturing the band in their penthouse suite and having the team scrooge out on paying 5k total for Julius' rigger friend, Clarice, to pull them out on call--they hit the penthouse. The standoff at the door with the band's ex-mercenary bodyguards soon escalated into all-out hell. Gloomy took two rounds to the chest and was down for the count. Oni ended up killing Lorthian with a swift strike to the back of the head because the shaman deemed it fit to leave the team in a bind (Julius took Oni's discarded SPAS-22). Samadi was killed in he and Darren's stand-off with Hilton security. Julius nearly had his groin crushed and his leg snapped by a surly dwarf, whom he promptly exterminated. And when a white phospherous grenade rolled out into the corridor, Julius risked his skin to drag Gloomy out and hurl him into the opposite wall. He lost his longcoat to the explosion. Julius, Smith, and Gloomy banded together and raided the suite while the rest of the team made use of their firepower to keep the security at bay. Julius took three of the bodyguards out with the SPAS, while Smith off'd the other two with his assault rifle. They retrieved the three band members and, to Julius' surprise, Clarice came hovering up to the side of the building in her Stallion. Smith went to help the others while Julius, Oni, and Gloomy took the kids and hopped their ticket out of there. After a heated dog-fight with the 'Plex Guard, Clarice dropped the crew on a rooftop. In their haste they forgot the members in the chopper and cursed themselves as they watched it fly away. Not wasting any time, Julius made quick work of the door to the stairwell and lead the team into the building. They ran into no opposition in the closed place of business until the first floor, where they ran into two guards who nearly wet themselves watching 300 pounds of ork shamble through a doorway and level a shotgun at their chests. Julius didn't see them as any kind of threat so he handcuffed them and knocked them out. Oni, on the other hand, didn't know compassion. As Julius exited the office Oni quickly killed the unconcious guards. Jules led the group to Patch's clinic, where he got his leg stitched up and Gloomy's chest sewed. He decided it would be a good idea to turn on the trid and catch the news. That's when he saw the report. Oni's folly had all been captured on the security cameras, and pinned Julius and Gloomy with accessory to murder. He told Oni to get out, upon which the physad took to the street (he was killed later in the night in a stand-off with Lone Star). Julius and Gloomy then discussed ways of clearing themselves of the charges. But they saw only one way out. As Gloomy went on his way, Julius made a call to Helen, his fixer...

History in Quebec - After being falsely accused of accessory to murder, Julius Frakes fled the UCAS for Quebec. Using his fixer, Helen, he was able to get through customs on a one way suborbital. His gear was delivered to him, as promised, in a large duffle bag. Feeling sorry for himself, he drowned his sorrows in a local bar for the next two weeks. One seemingly normal night, Julius was halfway through a cheap glass of synth-bourbon when an apparent regular began starting trouble with him. The man was a rough militant type, in combat boots, fatigue pants, and a muscle shirt. Julius thought nothing of the half-smashed joker and simply ignored him. That was until the guy got physical. He pulled a knife and charged Jules from the side. Julius promptly caught his arm in a twist hold and the joker ate bartop. Feeling the situation was getting too heated, he headed out. But the man apparently wasn't so easy to quit. Before Jules knew it he was blindsided by a barstool. Afterwards a large fight ensued between him and the stranger. When the dust settled there was Julius, chest heaving, standing over the man. Feeling he was no longer wanted, he left for the ratty doss he was renting. About 6am the next morning there was a knock at his door. Julius answered and was greeted by none other than the same joker from the bar. He introduced himself as Cobra. As it turned out the man was impressed with Julius' fighting, seeing as it had been years since Cobra had been defeated in a brawl. Julius was, from there, invited to join a small mercenary group called the COTA. This led to a long time relationship between Julius and Tiger, the team's ork female shaman. Living and working with the mercs was truly something new to Julius, and his new-found love made things just right. But throughout everything, Julius still ached to once again see home. During the three years he spent in Quebec with them he learned various tricks of that trade. One of the most significant was his training in combat driving. The money the team made was enough to keep Julius fed and bathed, and he even had some left to spend on late night drinking binges. He even got his Boosted Reflexes that he'd been saving for. But throughout all this he ached for home. After the third year he finally decided to return to the city he loved. He begged Tiger to return with him, but she saw it as she couldn't leave the team. So Julius, now sporting a thick beard, returned to Seattle, alone. Upon arrival to his city he sought out Dante and got a temporary place to stay. Shaving his beard and donning one of his long unworn suits, Julius returned to the shadows of the urban jungle...

Post-Quebec History --- Julius took a few simple runs until word spread through the shadows that he had, indeed, returned. He joined up with a team of runners highered to rig the 2057 Gubernatorial Elections in favor of Schultz. The team banded together afterwards to form Damage, Inc.. They soon broke up and Julius moved bakc to freelance work. After a particularly harrowing run involving a bounty hunter named Fork, Julius got reconstructive surgery for all of his body scars. Leaving only a little of his back scar and the hole in his chest from a Barret 121 as a reminder.
