Karl Tobias Zendik (born October 19, 2017 in Mannheim, Germany) is a highly respected private bounty hunter and formerly an officer of the German KSK (Kommando Spezialkräfte) 5th Platoon. He was cashiered out of the KSK at the end of the SiRu War in 2054 and was granted an EU Bounty Hunter's licence the same year. In 2057 he was hired by Reznor Security to track down and detain Major Richard Warner, an escapee from Wight Max-Pen, UK.
Early Life
Karl Tobias Zendik is the only son of Mikhail and Agnetha Zendik. His father was an ex-serviceman in the German Heer (Army) and his mother a succesful business woman in the Bavarian city of Mannheim. He also has a younger sister, Marianna (born June 4, 2021). His school record showed an aptitude for physical actiites and a keen sense of pattern recognition and problem solving. From school he was admitted to the ESMT (European School of Management and Technology) in Munich, where he seemed set to follow in his mother's footsteps.
While at the ESMT he met and fell in love with Kristiana Schmidt, who he later married at Speyer Cathedral on May 1, 2036. He graduated from the ESMT the following year, at the same time as his wife gave birth to a daughter, Natasha. Afterwards they moved to Frankfurt and he quickly secured a civilian administrative position with the Bundeswehr. Impressing his superiors he was expected to do well in his career when his life was almost ended.
On the evening of March 22, 2039, he was returning home to hiw wife and daughter just as violence erupted in the city. Armed para-military gangs over-ran police checkpoints and the streets turned into combat zones in moments. Caught in the middle of this Karl was hit in the head by a stray bullet. Over fifty hours of surgery and the insertion of a second generation neural bridge were needed to stabilise him, followed by several months of intense therapy to integrate his new implants.
