Romy Wigua

Character Background
Romy was born to immigrants in Silicon Island. His parents were granted special refugee Visas when the Soviet bloc started showing increasing signs of aggression in the Pacific. Samsung Corp. stepped in to sponsor many of the citizens under an undisclosed contract. What is known is that these contracts guarantee housing, work, and education for those who accepted. These were the only stipulations that were disclosed at the time.

Romy went to the schools provided by Samsung and Lockheed Martin. His upbringing was filled with physical and mental capability tests. Weekly testing from professors and doctors were the norm. Conditioning in class was also common. He had a strong upbringing to uphold the “American” way of life: capitalism and consumerism. Because of his immigrant status, Romy and his family lived a privileged life. He later finds that this is because of his achievements at school.

Romy eventually went to Samsung University and was on track to be an technical engineer on Silicon Island. He focused much of his work on creating advanced V.T. for the company. He believes that these superior machines will be the key to crushing the Soviet bloc in the near future.
