History
"Do you know what I am? Just another guy who was trying to make money at another's expense. The only difference was that I am royally screwed now. I was a data trafficker. You know, one of those guys who've undergone cybernetic surgery to have a data storage system implanted in their head. It was all going fine, until she came along.

I met this girl; she stole my heart, my wallet, and then left me in a ditch to rot and die. Sure I live in the Sprawls, but man, love at first sight is love.

So she left me without letting me even say goodbye. I was a complete mess afterward, doing some stuff I shouldn't have, but I got good at it. Really good. Misfortune, however, always comes back for seconds.

I found someone better than me, and they weren't pleased with my progress. But they were the civilized kind of people. They even let me make a Hobson's choice; either help them expand the influence of their company or get fed to a pack of War Wolves. So here I am, waiting to get gunned down at the front lines.

When you are in a position like me, life is pretty funny. I look at the lo teks, meat puppets, dealers, and other riff-raff, and can't stop laughing. They gave me this net device.

It's called an Unitology Obelisk marker, but I just call it an Obelisk. It gathers information from the surrounding area and puts it before my eyes. We take bets on which of the lucky bastards will die first.

Oh, I forgot to tell you? There are more than a few people like me. To be frankly honest I can’t imagine how many there are. Well, isn't this just grand? Here you are listening to this dumb hacker's life story and you still don't know my name.

They call us Immunes, don't know why. It really doesn't matter what I say to you. In a few seconds, you will forget this conversation ever happened.

Take care my friend; you are going to need all the help you can get. After all, the world is just ripe for the taking."

The Immune Systems Engineer is the result of the latest advancements in modern technology. A seamless mix of machinery and human ingenuity, they are expert hackers capable of capturing any structure from a safe distance. The computerized brain interface breaches the enemy network and takes it over with a computer virus. Any valuable resource can be repaired by the Immune thanks to their vast collection of Micro-Softs, which allow them to pull up simple-to-read instructions for any possible situation. The Immune is also capable of assembling an Obelisk that reveals large portions of the map to the player.

Immunes, named for the field engineers of the Great Eorzea Empire, are forcefully recruited from the illegal hackers within the Sprawls. They are a diverse lot, some dangerous criminals concerned only with money, others digital resistance fighters against corporate rule. Freelance hackers are disliked by the Syndicate because they tend to do damage exclusively within the Syndicate.

If a hacker is arrested for breaking corporate ICE, they are given a choice; a contract with Legion Security, or a shallow grave. Once inducted into Legion Security, Immunes are tasked with the corporate espionage that keeps Legion Security the biggest name in private military contracts, as well as combat engineer duty.

As most other factions don't use computers the way that the Syndicate understands them, Immunes are forced to get creative, and to their credit, they do an excellent job. Using microwave signals, hijacking telephones, or even power landlines, splicing into radio broadcasts, through a variety of means Immunes can use their technological superiority to deny the enemy assets from a distance.
