Technomancer: Using Technology To Clear the Tower
Alexander Kingsley is a 42 year old single father, who is about to lose his position as project manager at a multimedia advertising company, to a younger employee who just so happens to be related to the CEO of the company.
The unfair demotion leads Alexander to have an angry outburst, and during which he accidentally shoves another employee to the ground. The employee ends up hitting their head on the corner of a desk, and sues Alexander! Faced with charges of assault, and legal fees he can't afford, he opts to kill himself so that his debt cannot be passed onto his only daughter.
Alexander took a jump off a bridge, down towards the icy cold river beneath, but when he jumped he began to regret jumping.
But it was too late.
As he plummeted towards the water, he was overwhelmed with regret and guilt. Guilty that he would do something so selfish instead of making things right. Leaving his daughter to deal with the death of a parent.
These were the thoughts that Alexander thought as he watched the surface of the water fill his vision. Right as he hits the water, his thoughts seemingly slow down. He felt face hit the surface of the water, which retained it's surface tension, and his bones break upon impact. He felt his neck snap.
One vertebrae.
Two.
Then his vision went black, and he thought death had finally claimed him. But instead he found himself laying on the floor of a dark cave.
[Welcome to the Tower of Wishes!]
[Floor 1 will now commence.]
[Activating Gift.]
[Technomancy Gift awakened!]
[Hosts health critical! Performing emergency treatment with materials on hand.]
Alexander found a new, mysterious lease on life, and finally figured out a way to potentially solve his financial problems.
