Lil Bill
Ambition - Rebuild or Replace Schrecknet.
Build a new computer. - Desire
Born Alan Gates, Lil' Bill grew up in the exciting world of Cold War era Computer Technology design and programming, in Cambridge. His father and mother both worked in the field and he knew how to program a basic computer before he was out of primary school. When he was a teenager, he was participating in the early hacker society of the 1960s, which is where he encountered Memnoch - a Nosferatu hacker, who recognized Alan's talent and had his own Childe Persephone Sire him.
Eventually Alan moved to San Augustin to flee his apparent death coming to light. This was when Moloch (his online persona) was outed as a dead man, and Alan changed his name to Bill Ranson. He wasn't a big fan of being called "Little Bill", but he's warmed to it because it causes others to underestimate him.
