//SUBJECT RESILIENCE[+] Cybernetic Augmentation = Possesses an unrelenting strength that exceeds the capacity for a normal humanoid, even for the subject's size, subject Hollow has been recorded overpowering even the most physically adept non-humanoid species. Further augmentation includes the eyes, which are capable of seeing in total darkness, along with the ability to read vital signs. Various other implants have been made to boost situational awareness, tactical strategy, and reflexes. What's more, Subject Hollow possesses two cybernetic hearts that are both capable of a hard restart should the subject flat-line, become incapacitated, or lose one of the two artificial organs.
[+] Cocktail = To further pursue the identity of a living weapon, Subject Hollow is given an extensive regiment of drugs in order to induce a state of psychosis to instill fear in the First Order's enemies. This also makes the subject quit emotionally and physically numb and able to carry on a fight without becoming exhausted or losing combat effectiveness, unwavering to mercy or the concept of sympathy.
[+] Hard-drive = One of the specialties that Subject Hollow has among its vast majority of cybernetic enhancements is the ability to be connected to terminals and leech information for the usage of First Order intelligence, and should the subject fail its objective and be captured during such a procedure, a fail safe will activate and encrypt all information; should it be tampered with, said information will be erased and the subject itself will detonate.

//SUBJECT FLAWS[ - ] Instability = Subject Hollow must be frequently monitored and kept under stasis before being deployed; failure to do so will cause subject Hollow to go into a frenzy on account of the cocktail of drugs coursing through its system. Subject Hollow will hold extreme prejudice and hostility towards those who within its vicinity, which shouldn't be confused with a treasonous act, merely the ever-degrading mental state of the weapon.
[ - ] Humanity = Subject Hollow lacks any capacity for morals, emotion, nor even the desire to be cultured. This gives it the nickname of "Hollow", otherwise referring to its apparent lack of anything beyond the surface of its facade, fooling most whom come across it and believing it to be an actual humanoid capable of being civil.
[ - ] Lifespan = Being so heavily augmented and frequently experiencing detrimental effects due to its nature, subject Hollow has a disturbingly high mortality rate; yet, it has not met its end just yet. A high resilience and mission success rate keeps it from kicking the bucket, as well as frequent re-calibration and being flushed of old drug injections to keep them from becoming toxic inside the subject's body.

//NOTABLE QUALITIESSubject Hollow is barely shown outside of its suit or helmet, causing for quite a sinister and shady aesthetic. Clad in black from head to toe, subject Hollow blends in well with poorly lit environments and operates even better in complete darkness, only adding to its eerie nature and appearance.

Records on Subject Hollow tell of a very troubled past, but only date back to the first finding of the candidate upon a First Order occupied planet where he was captured and questioned. Interrogation revealed that the Atrisian, whom referred to himself as Valtilus, had defected away from the Galactic Alliance and subsequently the Jedi Order. Further information reveals that, while attempting to obtain the intruder, guards had quite a bit of difficulty. It was understood that Valtilus held a connection to the Force, which is the sole reason he was not killed outright for trespassing on a First Order outpost without permission. But it was the assumption that the individual could have been a sort of spy to garner information, which was later proven to be a false accusation. Upon the findings that Valtilus was a Force Sensitive, it was discussed among officials of drafting the young man into the ranks of the Knights of Ren, as he could potentially be a valuable asset to the plans of the First Order, as well as finding a true place to grow unlike the teachings of the Jedi, which had already been somewhat engraved into Valtilus' mind. He showed a certain reluctance at first to the idea of serving a group that dedicated themselves to a darker path, but when faced with the certainty that he would die, Valtilus changed his mind. At first, there was a degree of hardship for the lad, always falling behind and not living up to what was seen upon his incarceration. A part of him still clung to the threads of the Jedi teachings, but with time, those too would become fleeting just as Valtilus fled.
As time passed, the young man started to harden in his personality. He became more cut-off from the world of caring about what was right or wrong, or even the husk of who he once was when he was discovered. The boy's training was exceeding all that the First Order had planned, and those observing him. He showed promise, and in his heart, those that felt the Force could feel his dedication and anger towards the Jedi. It was obvious that the real reason he continued this route was to claim revenge. Valtilus felt wronged, lied to by the ones that were supposedly meant to bring peace to the galaxy. They had given him nothing but a detrimental perspective on how his power could be used, they were simply wrong.
- 1 Year After Initial Training -
Darkness, anguish. It was all that Valtilus could see and feel. A mission gone terribly awry, the now Disciple of the Knights of Ren had suffered extensive bodily damage as well as internal. His first conflict with the Jedi had taken an unexpected turn. Nobody understood what happened except for Valtilus' alone, and it was his course of action that became his imminent undoing. Upon being frantically questioned, the Disciple did not return an answer to the query. Only silence and anger, tears welled up in his eyes and streamed down his scarred face. With little time to spare, he was rushed to a medical bay where he underwent extensive surgery and cybernetic augmentation before losing consciousness. Even in the realm of dreams and immaterium, Valtilus still clutched to his very soul that struggled between slipping away and remaining broken and twisted. Whispers invaded his mind, coaxing him to release himself into the darkness and let it embrace him like a mother coddling a child. The pull of the Light beckoned Valtilus to let go, to seek redemption through leaving the tainted body that was no longer his true self. But the hatred was strong, and it understood him; and he understood it, for it held justification and a means of strength. As the Light faded, the whispers grew stronger. They multiplied and intensified until Valtilus regained a shred of consciousness. His vision was blurred, and he witnessed several dark robed figures standing around him, all speaking to one another.
Valtilus could only pick up small parts of the conversation, but one thing was certain. They were not going to let him fade. He could feel it.
And then, back to darkness.
"Begin the procedure. We will return for him."
A kind of prototype that was classified by the First Order was demanded to be put into effect. A king of experiment that would ultimately ruin the life of anyone it was tested upon, making them less than who they once were, or killing the personality entirely. To weaponize someone's raw anger was only ever discussed briefly between those of the Ren and the scientists of the First Order, and the latter did not believe it to be necessary or even practical. But in this case, it was worth a shot. By all accounts Valtilus should have died, but for the sheer fact that he did not proved a kind of worth. A respect was bestowed upon the Disciple, and a grace that not even the Jedi could offer. They would have let him die.This procedure would render Valtilus no more as a man or a person, for that no longer existed. He would become hollow, an empty vessel for the Dark Side to inhabit and bless him with gifts many would fear him for and grant him respect. A thing of malice and animosity, no longer even human.
Subject Hollow was born.
