Donovan XF4
Donovan is an extreme example of an animal hybrid clone, having very little resemblance to his human progenitors. Decanted and plugged into braindance by a DNA lab at OTEC in 2016, Donovans XF1 through XF80 were put through a variety of braindance educational and entertainment routines. Most of the series were deemed failures when the procupine skin/quill DNA failed to take properly and either left the skin only partially formed, or so thick as to be practically immobile. Only Donovans XF4, 23, 55 and 72 were kept, and both 55 and 72 developed massive skin cancer anomalies during the two years of braindance training.
Then OTEC had to figure out what they were going to do with a pair of juvenile clones covered in quills. Since XF23 was the better-looking of the two, he was dragged around from conference to conference to show off OTEC's cloning technologies,a nd XF4 was left at the original facility with his creators who took care of him and attempted to train him in technical work. The problem of course being that it was impossible to work in close quarters with "Don" without wearing some relatively thick body armor... So he learned how not to be in the way, and had his time on the equipment when the staff was off-duty.
Then on December 12th, 2021, the facility was dragged into the fourth corporate war between OTEC and CINO. Using his skills in hiding (and since the attack by CINO troops was aiming at a specific Biotech project and was not attempting to kill the research staff), Donovan XF4 managed to keep low and then sneak out after the team pulled out of the torched facility. Running scared through the city, Don made friends with some scavengers in no-man's land where his technical skills could be of some use and his form was not a detriment.
Now Donovan has begun integrating himself with the local street culture, and most people pass him off as a very strange exotic. He can often be found skulking around the outsides of hot Netrunner bars and warez exchanges.
