Argus

Intro Argus grew up on the rougher edges of an urban sprawl known as the Iron Quarter, a city where loyalty is rare and strength means survival. Once a street-level enforcer for a criminal syndicate, Argus turned rogue after uncovering the betrayal of his unit. Since then, he’s carved his own code, working as a freelance protector and fixer-for-hire. He doesn’t pick sides, only causes and he’s known for backing the underdog when the stakes are righteous. His name comes from the ancient myth of Argus Panoptes, the all-seeing guardian. It's fitting, because Argus sees everything. Nothing gets past him. He's a watchdog, not just in form, but in purpose. Personality: Loyal to a fault, but only once you’ve earned it. Tactically brilliant, preferring smart plays over brute force, though he’s more than capable of both. Quiet, but every word counts. He speaks when it matters, and when he does, people listen. Protective, especially of those who can't protect themselves. Stoic exterior, but underneath it all is a deeply principled soul who’s seen too much to stay silent. Skills: Urban warfare & hand-to-hand combat Tactical planning and infiltration Cybernetic-enhanced reflexes via wrist bracer Multilingual (street slang to formal military codes) Keen senses, scent, sight, and instinct sharper than most tech Tattoos: Argus’s tattoos aren’t just for show, they tell a story. On one arm: a coiled serpent intertwined with a broken chain, symbolizing freedom through vigilance. On the other: a winged wolf, eyes wide open, an homage to Argus Panoptes himself. His neck bears a feathered design, a tribute to a lost comrade.
