Perfectionist. If it is not exactly how he wants it, it is not even remotely right. Particularly obsessive about his cars and drones, Zipperhead cannot bear to stand by and watch, he must be involved with all things at all times. A residet of South Tacoma (in Seattle), this well-muscled, tattooed, grease-monkey is a former New York City ganger. Zipperhead became a rigger after scrounging up several hundreds of thousands of nuyen through a series of robberies and extortions with the Skull Krakkers (the gang he was with). After a member of the gang ratted them all out, Zipperhead took off for Seattle. After falling into the gang crowd for a short while, he soon faded away, applying for a SIN under an assumed name and opening a garage. In early 2050 he met Gustav Havel and the two organized and ran a smuggling team in and out of the S-S Council. Late in 2051, an incident caused the two to step away from that business, taking up shadowrunning.
Having lived his entire life as either a ganger or a shadowrunner, he has brought himself up to certain standards of "professional" quality. His combat skills are in the average to above-average range. However, due to the nature of his life outside of shadowrunning (that being his garage) he has acquired other useful skills. (Of note, he acquired a Technical School Degree through a correspondence course in Auto Mechanics.) He is an expert mechanic, accomplished driver, has experience with electronics (more specifically, control systems), and has developed good negotiation skills. But after his most recent Shadowrunning team broke down he has become disillusioned and elusive. Former shadow community associates say it appears as though he going to completely retire and withdraw to his garage, however, rumors that the Amalgamated Electro-Industrial Computer Corporation still has a bounty on his head may prompt him to resume his vocation, even if only for self-defense.
