Changes: Engie

Revision as of 09:42, 19 February 2012

Engineer (Real Name: Dr. Alexander Gromov) or Engie is the third main character in the webcomic "Romantically Apocalyptic" and is the only other character besides Sniper to be deamed "Sane". So far he has not interacted with the other characters in the comic, but knows at least Captain and has read the reports of Sniper from before the Apocalypse.

Appearence

Dr. Gromov is a pale Russian man. His face is angular with well defined cheekbones and scruffy brown hair. His eyes are obscured by his ever present amber goggles while the rest of his face is covered by a gas mask. His attire consists of a grey hooded jacket with fur trim and dark blue trousers. He also wears grey glo

ves and boots.

Background

Alexander Gromov was the head of the division controlling and maintaining ANNET, the computer system which all humans could link to via neural interface. As a result, he developed a very close bond with the network, and frequently referred to it as ANNIE. Strangely enough, the computer seemed to return his affections.

He was also in charge of Project 7 - An analysis aimed at finding the luckiest man in the world; Captain. After Captain ruined ANNETs servers, ANNET classified all humans as a threat to its' existence and killed everyone in it's facility except for Alexander, who was spared because ANNET could not eliminate his admin privileges, at least not fully. In retaliation Gromov led a small group of survivors to launch a last desperate nuclear attack on ANNET, hoping that taking out a small portion of ANNET's system will cause the rest of it to fail. He then hid in a well stocked and fortified bunker.

Personality

From his limited appearances, we can posit that he is a shrewd and logical thinker, building a shelter with several years of supplies in preparation for the apocalypse. He appears to have a thriving contempt for Captain, in no small part due to Captains actions in destroying ANNETs servers causing her to go berserk. He also appears to be a loner, shunning human company for the safety and security of his bunker.

Skills

As the head of project 7, Engineer was a top boss in computers and programming. He also showed enough skills to find and fortify a bunker to live in should the apocalypse occour.

After Captain ruined ANNETs servers, ANNET classified all humans as a threat to its' existance and killed everyone in its' facility except for Alexander, who was spared because ANNET could not eliminate his admin privelages, at least not fully. All humans linked to ANNET - which was more or less everyone, except for [[Sniper]], [[Captain]], himself and [[Pilot]] - were assimilated by ANNET and taken under its' control.  Those who were not linked were 'hugged' and forceably integrated into ANNET's collective conciousness. Realizing what had happened, Alexander was left with only one option. Using nuclear missiles, he obliterated the remaining Cities of Earth, transforming everything into the wasteland the comic takes place in, arguably making him(and Captain) responsible for the Apocalypse. However, it seems even this was not enough to destroy ANNET....
