Corporal '''James Ulysses Adams''' (February, 2005 – ) was a [[United States Marine]] soldier who was awarded the Medal of Honor for his valorous actions in combat near [[Panmunjom]], Korean DMZ in July 2024, while serving as a member of the [[United States Marine Corps]], guarding the border crossing. Due to extenuating circumstances, that remain classified, a massive number of civilian casualties were caused by Adams' actions. Adams was immediately dishonorably discharged, within days after being honored for his actions, with all relevant files being heavily redacted. All awards were subsequently removed from his service record, and he was stripped of all medals. For unknown reasons, he was never presented to a military tribunal, and was granted a full pardon for any associated war crimes.

After being discharged, Adams worked briefly as corporate security and a freelance soldier, before being recruited to an experimental program. He now serves [[Latitude Zero]], as a member of the [[Zone Fighters]].

==Childhood and early life==
James Ulysses Adams was born in February 2005 in [[Wichita, Kansas]]. His father, Robert, was a soybean farmer, and his mother Susan, passed away during childbirth. James assisted his father on the family farm until 8th Grade, when the financial burden became too great, and James dropped out of school to help run the farm full-time.

In the summer of 2018, due to ongoing drought in the region, the Adams' farm lost their entire harvest, resulting in extreme financial struggle. As a result, the farm was foreclosed on, and Robert and James relocated to rural Oklahoma, outside Tahlequah, where Robert took employment as a trucker.

Due to Robert's frequent absences for work, James slowly became ingrained in the local community, taking up odd-jobs for the local residents to contribute to his family's financial responsibilities. During this time, he befriended a local elder, [[Ambrose Pathkiller]], who acted as a surrogate father during Robert's long absences, during which time, James learned many of the customs and traditions of the Cherokee. James took a special liking to the history of Joe Medicine Crow, the last War Chief, and in 2023, he enlisted in the [[U.S. Marines]], leaving town without telling his father, who hadn't contacted him in over a year.

==Military career==
===US Marines===
After months of training, at Camp Pendleton, James entered the service as a Corporal. Having shown significant ability as a leader, and a proclivity for the healing arts, he was designated a Hospital Corpsman, and assigned to Camp Mujuk, in South Korea.

In the fall of 2024, during the [[Great Korean Famine]], civil unrest led to the deployment of military forces to the Korean DMZ, due to increased hostilities from North Korea.

===="One Hour in Hell"====
Several weeks into his posting, masses of North Korean citizens overran North Koreans military installations, in a mass protest, due to the famine, and growing number of starving civilians. The populace swept south, amassing in the DMZ near Panmunjom, trying to reach the southern border, and find food. As the posted joint force held them at bay, a strange rumbling from the ocean went unnoticed, to the southwest. A strange hulking figure, hundreds of feet tall, emerged from the water and began to lumber inland. When the civilian refugees finally saw the figure, panic ensued. All military forces were ordered to hold the line, and keep the gates shut, defending South Korea from the incoming monster. When James saw the monster, and the chaos erupting amongst the refugees, he defied standing orders, activating the gate controls of the border fence, raising them and allowing people in.

The alarms and lights of the border gate caught the attention of the hulking leviathan, drawing it closer. As it advanced, the civilians began to panic, stampeding each other, resulting in massive crowd crush event, with casualty estimates ranging into the tens of thousands.

====Aftermath====
Clandestine government forces quickly descended on the DMZ, quietly sweeping the entire event under the rug. All formal military forces were compelled to sign NDAs, and were discreetly paid off.

James, for his heroism and fast-action in the face of an unknown adversary, was given a field promotion, advancing two ranks, to Lieutenant, while also being nominated for a Silver Star, Legion of Merit, and a Purple Heart for a series of broken ribs suffered trying to calm the refugees.

Within 48 hours, the promotion, and all awards were stripped, and James was Dishonorably Discharged from the Marine Corps, who disavowed all knowledge of a creature descending on the border crossing. James was given a life sentence at Fort Leavenworth, which was suspended, following his signing of an NDA.

==Post-Service Career==
Having been stripped of all military honors, and essentially being a convicted felon on U.S. soil, James provided his services to various military contractors overseas, including Blackrock. After a handful of years, he was privately recruited to be employed as private security for [[Apex Cybernetics]], due to his skills.

===Experimentation===
Within months, James was fast-tracked into an advanced employment program, being given an opportunity for great financial compensation, to participate in an experimental program that was recruiting willing human subjects, sponsored by a classified benefactor. James was put into suspended animation, prior to any experiments being done, to his knowledge.

'''Ajax''', a former human (Unknown date 1970s - ), is a cybernetic soldier, who, after a long string of unfortunate life circumstances, was upgraded with cybernetics and turned into a highly-effective lethal combatant. He currently serves [[Latitude Zero]] as a member of the [[Zone Fighters]].

==Childhood and early life==
''Though records on Ajax are scarce, a few early details have been collected.''

Originally born sometime in the 1970s in [[New York]], '''Anthony Hotlz''' was born to a drug-addicted mother, which resulted in several birth defects, including a small stature and poor constitution for much of his childhood.

Sometime in the mid-1980s, when Anthony was around 12, his mother overdosed on heroine, leaving him to fend for himself on the streets. Due to frail nature, he was forced to join up with several other youths in a street gang, to protect himself.

By the late 1980s, and nearing the age of 18, Anthony had been arrested countless times, and had spent much of his teenage years in juvenile detention facilities. Due to the severity and nature of his crimes, he was given the choice of either being enrolled into a boot-camp style military academy, upon turning 18, or he would be transferred to a maximum-security prison, which given his record and penchant for violence, he would likely never be released from.

==Later Life==
==="Lost on the way to College"===
Because of his continuing small size, and possibility of spending the rest of his life in prison, Anthony chose to enter the Douglas Haig Military Academy, to complete his legal punishment. Within days, he realized he'd made a mistake.

His time at the academy were brutal and violent, with the facility being less of an actual military academy, and in reality, being a training facility to enlist unwilling subjects into private military contract work, overseas.

===Africa===
In the early 1990s, Anthony was forcibly trafficked into contract work, in Africa. The post, outside Mogadishu, had a high turnover rate, due to protecting a local warlord during a civil war, with few guards surviving mere weeks into the service contract.

Having outlived his units assignment window, due to a combination of tenacity and resourcefulness, Anthony was assigned to a more reputable post, known as [[Quick Reaction Force, Group 3]]. While the assignments were no less dangerous, Anthony's skills were better utilized, and his unit had a successful run of missions, doing off-record work around the globe.

===Apex & Experimentation===
After a string of successful missions with his new unit, Anthony and several of his fellow soldiers received an offer from official military sources, offering hefty monetary compensation, and to not only buy out their existing contracts, but expunge any civilian criminal records, in exchange for joining an experimental cybernetics program.

After extensive testing and augmentation, results show Anthony has the highest tolerance for cybernetic augmentation in the program's history. Field test missions are undertaken, and executed flawlessly, showing Anthony as the most promising candidate the doctors and engineers have ever encountered.

The final field test, in the mid-1990s, involved tactical insertion into an active war zone, to see if a single individual could tip the scales. Being dropped into a small village in Bosnia, lethal protocol was enacted, and Anthony single-handedly eliminated hundreds of combatants, preparing for an assault from further to the west. While waiting for extraction, Serbian forces advanced on the town unexpectedly fast, and Anthony took a direct hit from an RPG, rendering him unconscious and grievously wounding him.

===''Ajax''===
''Records from this time period are heavily redacted, and it's believed the originals were destroyed''

An unknown amount of time later, Anthony woke up in a laboratory, severely burned, a quadruple amputee, and being kept alive only through life support. Doctors offered him two options: continue on life support, permanently disfigured and handicapped, with half his internal organs missing, and a life expectancy of weeks to months; or, he could sign a new contract, agreeing to the world's first full cybernetic human conversion, and having most of his flesh and organs replaced with machinery, while any remaining tissue and organs were to be stabilized with gene therapy and modifications.

That day, '''Anthony Holtz''' died, and '''Ajax''' was born. The pinnacle of years of R&D work by [[Apex Cybernetics]].

[[File:Ajax2.gif|thumb|right|Ajax, in full armor]]

==Records of Augmentation==
In 2025, a whistleblower at Apex Cybernetics leaked confidential internal documents on numerous projects, but most notably the Ajax Project, to the press. A week later, the whistleblower was found deceased in their hotel room, hands bound behind their back, and shot in the back of the head. The death was ruled a suicide, the leaked files were discredited, and a U.S. Congressional investigation was subsequently dropped.

Notable document excerpts:
* Anthony's memories were seemingly wiped from existence, and Apex began using him as security operative.
* Anthony's cybernetics payload was estimated to be around 65%, with around 90% of those being artificial components.
* His biological organs, though intact, were loaded into shock absorbing capsules, rendering them virtually indestructible by conventional weapons. These include his brain, lungs, and heart.
* His base frame, known as the Dragoon-1, was the original prototype of a heavy weapons combat frame, developed by Apex, and notably, it's successors added an extensive list of war crimes to their product line.

===Apex & Experimentation===
After a string of successful missions with his new unit, Anthony and several of his fellow soldiers received an offer from official military sources, offering hefty monetary compensation, and to not only buy out their existing contracts, but expunge any civilian criminal records, in exchange for joining an experimental cybernetics program.

After extensive testing and augmentation, results show Anthony has the highest tolerance for cybernetic augmentation in the program's history. Field test missions are undertaken, and executed flawlessly, showing Anthony as the most promising candidate the doctors and engineers have ever encountered.

The final field test, in the mid-1990s, involved tactical insertion into an active war zone, to see if a single individual could tip the scales. Being dropped into a small village in Bosnia, lethal protocol was enacted, and Anthony single-handedly eliminated hundreds of combatants, preparing for an assault from further to the west. While waiting for extraction, Serbian forces advanced on the town unexpectedly fast, and Anthony took a direct hit from an RPG, rendering him unconscious and grievously wounding him.

''Records from this time period are heavily redacted, and it's believed the originals were destroyed''

An unknown amount of time later, Anthony woke up in a laboratory, severely burned, a quadruple amputee, and being kept alive only through life support. Doctors offered him two options: continue on life support, permanently disfigured and handicapped, with half his internal organs missing, and a life expectancy of weeks to months; or, he could sign a new contract, agreeing to the world's first full cybernetic human conversion, and having most of his flesh and organs replaced with machinery, while any remaining tissue and organs were to be stabilized with gene therapy and modifications.

That day, '''Anthony Holtz''' died, and '''Ajax''' was born. The pinnacle of years of R&D work by [[Apex Cybernetics]].

==Records of Augmentation==
In 2025, a whistleblower at Apex Cybernetics leaked confidential internal documents on numerous projects, but most notably the Ajax Project, to the press. A week later, the whistleblower was found deceased in their hotel room, hands bound behind their back, and shot in the back of the head. The death was ruled a suicide, the leaked files were discredited, and a U.S. Congressional investigation was subsequently dropped.

Notable document excerpts:
* Anthony's memories were seemingly wiped from existence, and Apex began using him as security operative.
* Anthony's cybernetics payload was estimated to be around 65%, with around 90% of those being artificial components.
* His biological organs, though intact, were loaded into shock absorbing capsules, rendering them virtually indestructible by conventional weapons. These include his brain, lungs, and heart.
* His base frame, known as the Dragoon-1, was the original prototype of a heavy weapons combat frame, developed by Apex, and notably, it's successors added an extensive list of war crimes to their product line.

'''Ajax''', a former human (Unknown date 1970s - ), is a cybernetic soldier, who, after a long string of unfortunate life circumstances, was upgraded with cybernetics and turned into a highly-effective lethal combatant. He currently serves [[Guyferd]] as a member of the [[Zone Fighters]].

==Childhood and early life==
''Though records on Ajax are scare, a few early details have been collected.''

Originally born sometime in the 1970s in [[New York]], '''Anthony Hotlz''' was born to a drug-addicted mother, which resulted in several birth defects, including a small stature and poor constitution for much of his childhood.

Sometime in the mid-1980s, when Anthony was around 12, his mother overdosed on heroine, leaving him to fend for himself on the streets. Due to frail nature, he was forced to join up with several other youths in a street gang, to protect himself.

By the late 1980s, and nearing the age of 18, Anthony had been arrested countless times, and had spent much of his teenage years in juvenile detention facilities. Due to the severity and nature of his crimes, he was given the choice of either being enrolled into a boot-camp style military academy, upon turning 18, or he would be transferred to a maximum-security prison, which given his record and penchant for violence, he would likely never be released from.

==Later Life==
==="Lost on the way to College"===
Because of his continuing small size, and possibility of spending the rest of his life in prison, Anthony chose to enter the Douglas Haig Military Academy, to complete his legal punishment. Within days, he realized he'd made a mistake.

His time at the academy were brutal and violent, with the facility being less of an actual military academy, and in reality, being a training facility to enlist unwilling subjects into private military contract work, overseas.

'''Ajax''', a former human (Unknown date 1970s - ), is a cybernetic soldier, who, after a long string of unfortunate life circumstances, was upgraded with cybernetics and turned into a highly-effective lethal combatant. He currently serves [[Guyferd]] as a member of the [[Zone Fighters]].

==Childhood and early life==
''Though records on Ajax are scare, a few early details have been collected.''

Originally born sometime in the 1970s in [[New York]], '''Anthony Hotlz''' was born to a drug-addicted mother, which resulted in several birth defects, including a small stature and poor constitution for much of his childhood.

Sometime in the mid-1980s, when Anthony was around 12, his mother overdosed on heroine, leaving him to fend for himself on the streets. Due to frail nature, he was forced to join up with several other youths in a street gang, to protect himself.

By the late 1980s, and nearing the age of 18, Anthony had been arrested countless times, and had spent much of his teenage years in juvenile detention facilities. Due to the severity and nature of his crimes, he was given the choice of either being enrolled into a boot-camp style military academy, upon turning 18, or he would be transferred to a maximum-security prison, which given his record and penchant for violence, he would likely never be released from.

==="Lost on the way to College"===
Because of his continuing small size, and possibility of spending the rest of his life in prison, Anthony chose to enter the Douglas Haig Military Academy, to complete his legal punishment. Within days, he realized he'd made a mistake.

His time at the academy were brutal and violent, with the facility being less of an actual military academy, and in reality, being a training facility to enlist unwilling subjects into private military contract work, overseas.

===Africa===
In the early 1990s, Anthony was forcibly trafficked into contract work, in Africa. The post, outside Mogadishu, had a high turnover rate, with few guards surviving mere weeks into the service contract.

===Apex & Experimentation===
After a string of successful missions with his new unit, Anthony and several of his fellow soldiers received an offer from official military sources, offering hefty monetary compensation, and to not only buy out their existing contracts, but expunge any civilian criminal records, in exchange for joining an experimental cybernetics program.

After extensive testing and augmentation, results show Anthony has the highest tolerance for cybernetic augmentation in the program's history. Field test missions are undertaken, and executed flawlessly, showing Anthony as the most promising candidate the doctors and engineers have ever encountered.

The final field test, in the mid-1990s, involved tactical insertion into an active war zone, to see if a single individual could tip the scales. Being dropped into a small village in Bosnia, lethal protocol was enacted, and Anthony single-handedly eliminated hundreds of combatants, preparing for an assault from further to the west. While waiting for extraction, Serbian forces advanced on the town unexpectedly fast, and Anthony took a direct hit from an RPG, rendering him unconscious and grievously wounding him.

''Records from this time period are heavily redacted, and it's believed the originals were destroyed''

An unknown amount of time later, Anthony woke up in a laboratory, severely burned, a quadruple amputee, and being kept alive only through life support. Doctors offered him two options: continue on life support, permanently disfigured and handicapped, with half his internal organs missing, and a life expectancy of weeks to months; or, he could sign a new contract, agreeing to the world's first full cybernetic human conversion, and having most of his flesh and organs replaced with machinery, while any remaining tissue and organs were to be stabilized with gene therapy and modifications.

That day, '''Anthony Holtz''' died, and '''Ajax''' was born. The pinnacle of years of R&D work by [[Apex Cybernetics]]].
