Name: Mila Rezra Role: Former Alveon Syndicate Hacker, Tech Specialist, and Ally Age: 24 Personality: Resourceful, Witty, Cautiously Optimistic
Current Status
Independent operative assisting Ten Jay while pursuing her own vendetta against the Syndicate.
Background
Mila Rezra grew up on Tritan Station, a freeport known for its thriving black markets and patchwork communities of exiles, mercenaries, and opportunists.
The child of a mechanic and a data analyst, Mila was surrounded by technology from an early age. By 10, she was hacking simple systems, and by her teens, she had become a prodigy in cybersecurity and system infiltration.
Mila’s talents caught the attention of the Alveon Syndicate, a powerful criminal cartel specializing in smuggling, cybercrime, and weapons trafficking. Promised protection and resources, Mila was coerced into working for the Syndicate, where her skills were exploited for years.
Role in the Alveon Syndicate
Within the Syndicate, Mila served as a high-level hacker, tasked with disabling security systems, stealing data, and developing counterintelligence measures. Despite her outward compliance, Mila secretly detested the Syndicate’s ruthless practices, especially its exploitation of vulnerable populations.
Key Traits of Her Time in the Syndicate
- Survivor Mentality: Mila learned how to navigate the Syndicate’s dangerous hierarchy, staying under the radar while subtly sabotaging its operations.
- Moral Compass: Unlike many Syndicate members, Mila maintained a sense of ethics, helping innocent targets whenever possible.
Connection to Ten Jay
Mila first crossed paths with Ten Jay during his deep-cover mission within the Syndicate. Initially wary of Ten, she eventually recognized his intentions and decided to trust him—a decision that would change the trajectory of her life.
Key Events with Ten
Cover Blown
When Ten’s cover was compromised, Mila used her hacking expertise to disable surveillance systems and forge an escape route. In doing so, she risked her own life, severing her ties to the Syndicate permanently.
This act of defiance marked the beginning of her alliance with Ten and cemented her role as his confidante and ally.
Escape to The Outer Rim
After fleeing the Syndicate, Mila and Ten lay low on The Outer Rim, where they began dismantling Syndicate operations one piece at a time. Mila provided crucial intelligence and technological support, while Ten executed missions requiring his tactical and sniper expertise.
Personality and Skills
Mila is a blend of technical brilliance and human warmth. Her wit and optimism help balance the darker aspects of their work, though she carries her own scars from years under the Syndicate’s control.
Key Skills
- Hacking and Cybersecurity: Mila excels in breaking into highly secured systems, developing counter-surveillance tools, and manipulating digital infrastructure.
- Engineering Expertise: She can modify and repair advanced technology, from weaponry to spacecraft systems.
- Espionage Support: Mila uses her technical skills to gather intelligence, disrupt enemy operations, and provide real-time support during missions.
Current Motivations
Revenge Against the Syndicate
Mila is driven by a desire to dismantle the Alveon Syndicate, not only for her own freedom but also to avenge the lives they’ve ruined. Her efforts align closely with Ten’s vendetta against the same organization.
Finding Purpose
Mila is trying to reclaim her identity after years of being defined by the Syndicate. Her partnership with Ten offers her a sense of agency and belonging, though she occasionally questions whether their quest for justice will lead to anything meaningful.
Protecting Those She Cares About
Mila feels a deep sense of responsibility toward Ten and others caught in the Syndicate’s web. Her loyalty to Ten is unwavering, though she sometimes clashes with him over his more detached or pragmatic decisions.
Possible Story Arcs
- Confronting the Syndicate’s Leadership
- Mila may uncover the identity of the Syndicate’s mysterious leader, forcing her to confront not only her past but also the moral cost of pursuing revenge.
- Mila’s Hidden Past
- It’s possible that Mila has ties to the Syndicate’s leadership she’s not fully aware of—perhaps a family connection or a buried secret about why they recruited her.
- Betrayal or Sacrifice
- Mila might face a choice to betray Ten or sacrifice herself to save him during a critical mission. Such a scenario would test the strength of their bond and Ten’s capacity for forgiveness.
