Frey design

Character designs of Frey and his attire. I wanted a create a feeling of retro cyberpunk that is still somewhat grounded in reality. There's nothing too outrageous about his appearance, but the bright cyan highlights make him eye catching nonetheless. 


Cyber Frey 3

"Bodies upon the gears" - Mario Savio, Free Speech Movement activist.

"There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels…upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!"

A moment of weakness.


No. 44

The fate of captured dissidents. 


Frey alternate outfit

The sweater quotes the book opening for Anna Karenina "Happy families are all alike". The text is purposely made backwards and is meant for the wearer to read when looking into the mirror for introspection. 


Cyber Frey 1

This is a cyber representation of Frey to illustrate his actions when hacking. The design is inspired by Anonymous' mascot of a headless man in a suite and their use of the Guy Fawkes masks. Frey's mask is unique, but carries the same purpose of protecting his anonymity. 


The Sound and Fury

Frey's electric violin, named the Sound and Fury.


Frey Rule 63

Rule 63 of the internet: For any given male character, there is a female version of that character.


Frey bandana

"YOU ARE FREE" - Topiary, member of the LulzSec hacktivist group.

A poignant phrase that puts the power and responsibility in the hands of the reader. 


Cyber Frey 2

The halo of code expands as he executes them. 


Cyber Frey Mask

The mask represents the layers of encryption that hides his true identity.
