Zhao's body is a patchwork of high-end chrome and artificial flesh, a testament to the extremes of experimentation he conducted on himself since the acquisition of source. Matte-black carbon fiber plates interlock seamlessly with patches of synth-skin, creating a topography of man and machine. Quantum processors enhance his psyche and speed of thought, while a spiderweb of subdermal wiring pulses beneath translucent sections of his skin, glowing a faint neon blue when he's jacked in. Sleek, retractable mono-filament whips are housed in his forearms, while his fingers end in titanium-alloy tips that can interface with any port or lock. A low hum emanates from his chest, where a military-grade cardio-booster keeps his system overclocked: his legs are a marvel of cybernetic engineering, with high-tensile synthetic muscles and bone-lace reinforcements allowing for bursts of superhuman speed. The freshly enhanced shadow is as much at home in under the spotlight as in the back alleys and filthy underpasses of the world.
