We carve history
From totalities beyond our grasp.
Bolt labels on the result. Handles.
Then speak of the handles as though
they were things in themselves.
-William Gibson,The Peripheral
Bob has seen heart and tragedy in the last few years. First, just after graduation as a veterinarian from UC Davis, he get's left at the altar by his fiance. Then he goes back home to New Orleans to his parents, and spends a year there volunteering as a Vet and learning the PI business from his mom. He decides to get his Ph.D. in Computer Science at UCP, since computers are as much his passion as helping animals. He and his parents went out to celebrat, but an unknown driver crashes into their car, killing his parents and sending him into a coma.
He woke a year later, wheelchair bound. He was taken care of by an older couple and they helped him learn about his new life. The husband helped him move to Prospect because New Orleans had memories of his parents wherever he went, and he is going to UCP in 2024 for a Ph.D. in Computer Science. Vet school was for his parents, though he loves animals and gets along with them well. Computers are his main passion, and he'd like to teach.
He's staying in his mother's small family home while he goes to UCP to get his Computer Science Ph.D. He's always willing to help animals, despite not currently being licensed in California. He also likes helping people. He is for hire to do research and is good at it. He also can fix, or build, outstanding computer systems.

| Bob is working on getting contacts, but he is a new guy.
Some of the people I'd OOCly like him to meet are:
- Xiu - Mysterious mentor
- Viktor - A like mind, we're working on projects together, including our chantry
- Ceilia - In the chantry Pacific Path as well, a genius scientist
- Steele - Healed me, a little strange, but fun to party with I imagine
- Lyra - Where do I start? Source of wisdom, but also more than a little scary
- Leigh - A bright light, much less dim than she seems

- Mr. Fixit - Do you need a custom computer? A new security system? Network improvements? He can do that for you, for a price.
- The truth is out there - And he can find it for you. He is making ends meet right now by doing custom research.
- Dr. Doolittle - Animals love him, and he loves them. He can even talk to them, a little, though he keeps that secret close held. Do you have a pet needing treatment? Emergency animal stitches? Need a street doc (he doesn't have much experience in that, but if approached right it is a possibility).
- Best of both worlds - He is a technoshaman, a member of the Dreamspeakers trained by a woman of the Ghost Wheel Society. He is also a member of the Virtual Adepts, trained by the woman's husband, a member of the Reality Hackers. Do you need net overwatch on some investigation?
- Heart of Gold - He can be met while volunteering at a soup kitchen or a pet shelter. He might also be found volunteering at various other Prospect Charities.
- Chantry - He's a founding member of Pacific Path, a newly formed Chantry
