Dolce Reinhart
Noticable Marks/Physical Traits:
Seemingly an androgynous child, it has, with the passing of years, (seemingly) become clear that this virtual form does not mirror Dolce's true form. Mostly because the form hasn't changed. At all.
Personality Traits: Introverted, Secretive, Stubborn, Sarcastic, Silent. Inner Potty Mouth, Very hard to anger, but once you're on their shitlist, you're on there forever, unless proven framed.
History:
Dolce is a bit of an enigma to most. Easily identifiable within the virtual world, no one not already in the know about their identity, has succeeded in linking them to an actual person, and that's just how Dolce likes it. Being untraceable like this does have its risks, but Dolce seems to deem them acceptable.
In truth, Dolce has very little choice in the matter.
You see, Dolce was a (voluntarily) test subject quite some time back, in some of the first experiments to digitize people. They knew it would not be a guaranteed success, but did so anyway, driven by the need to pay for medical bills for their younger sister. The digitization itself was a success. It was the way back out that turned out to be a problem.
In the end Dolce was officially declared dead. Ofcourse that judgement has long since been overruled, due to the precedent it set in a time in which datadiving had become common, but it happened. Dolce still spend over a decade as a test subject with very little rights.
By the time of the new judgement overturning Dolce's status, Dolce's sister had died, and the rest of their family had accepted Dolce's death, even if they knew that technically Dolce was still out there.
This embittered Dolce to them. They knew Dolce was out there, they even were aware Dolce wasn't treated well, and still they didn't fight for Dolce. Dolce knew that they wouldn't have won anyway, but they still did /not/ even make an attempt, did /not/ even entertain the thought.
So when the offer from a certain secretive organization came, Dolce took it, not looking back once.
Dolce has since become capable of returning to the real world, but rarely does, having very little reason to return anyway.
.exe files and special abilities:
Scan.exe - A versatile program allowing them to easily find anomalies, as well as figure out the weaknesses of obstacles.
Sandbox.exe - Cuts of the affected system(s) from the rest of the server
RepairFile.exe - Restores affected data to a previous state
Keypoint.exe - Allows for easy traversing to landmarks
Arsenal.exe - Gives Dolce access to a limited armory
Barrier.exe - Stronger and more versatile than a fire wall
AbsoluteBarrier.exe - While Dolce uses this rarely, it is there, and has an entire server dedicated to the computing processes needed to make it impenetrable.
Ghost.exe - Versatile program allowing them to bypass pretty much anything. It can pretty much make Dolce invisible and intangible in combat too
BigBadButton.exe -???
More to come
Organization: Classified
Dolce is rather tightlipped about who they're working for, but they have dropped some hints over the years, with terrifying implications. If humans can enter the virtual realm to wipe out viruses and come back out safely, should it not be possible for viruses to enter the 'real' world? And if so, what's keeping some idiot from doing exactly that?
Miscellaneous
Secrets: You mean aside from their true identity, looks and affiliation? They're terrified of tentacles.
Opinions on other Datadivers: Varies. A section on this will be added once actual roleplay occurs.
Weaknesses: Their solitary nature. Fear of tentacles.

Epic Battle Moment:
Dolce had been talking with his psychologist, Jane, when the alarms on base went of. Both of them remained calm. Even if Jane wasn't an Agent or Datadiver, she still worked for the Organization. Having chosen a more civilian occupation didn't diminish her Quality in the least.
"Mind if I..?, Dolce asked, while motioning towards the door.
"Ofcourse not Morgan", his psychologist answered dryly, "I love my continued existence, as you well know. Now shoo. And remember to reschedule an appointment this time, will you?"
Dolce sighed and duly answered, "Yes Ma'am".
It wasn't like Dolce (who had opted to be male this time) was avoiding his appointments, because even he knew how important it was to work through the shit his life had been so far. That time had involved days of fighting and recuperating though. Thoughts of needing to reschedule her (at the time) meeting had been completely forgotten until Jane's notice came.
It didn't take long for Dolce to be digitized again. Within the seemingly empty room he stretched, relishing in the infinitely more familiar form. Not that he disliked his form in the 'real' world, the difference in size just caused a bit of dissonance, having become used to this shorter reach over the years.
"Welcome back Dolce", a female voice sounded.
"Thank you Iris", he replied to the AI. "What's the situation?"
"We're under attack by a Scorpio Virus", she answered
"And they sounded the alarm for that?", Dolce asked incredulously.
"Not initially", the female voice hedged.
"Oh God..."
Organization Codex
Scorpio Virus: This is a virus that takes the form of a giant scorpion. This virus, if not taken care of in the right way, will duplicate itself upon defeat. It's difficulty rank tends to be in the lower medium range, not accounting for this special characteristic.
"What kind of idiot does not take it's duplicating ability into account?", he whined, as the virtual walls slowly turned see-through.
He gaped at the scenery below him for a moment, not having expected a screw up to this extent.
Upon seeing the hundreds upon hundreds of building-sized Scorpions attacking the decoy district Dolce despairingly asked, "How was that idiot even deemed quality?"
Iris didn't answer that, merely making a non-committed sound.
A keening noise escaped Dolce. "Fine. Just fine. Send me down already, will you?"
"With Pleasure"
Before Dolce had the time to process that statement the floor, which had already turned invisible, turned intangible too. As Dolce fell down a
"Nooooooot liiiiiiiike thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!!!!!!!!!!", could be heard.
All joking aside, Dolce executed Ghost.exe, and the virtual gravity lost its hold on him. His free-fall turned into controlled flight as he raced towards one of the Scorpions, who was about to strike down another Agent. He set down quickly, and held out his hand, the slightest hint of Barrier.exe covering it, as the Scorpion's stinger raced towards him. Just when it was about to hit, the barrier grew, and quickly covered the Scorpion's form.
Dolce's opened hand turned into a fist, and with it, the barrier shrank down, increasingly crushing the Virus until it dissolved into motes.
The agent in question aimed his gun in Dolce's direction, and shot out a paralyzing round. It flew right over Dolce's shoulder, hitting yet another Scorpion, which Dolce disposed of with ease afterwards.
"Thanks for the assist, Dolce.", the Agent said, her grin unnaturally wide.
"No problem Kuchisake", Dolce paused, "Forgive me for asking, but why are you even out here? This is a bad matchup for you if I ever saw one."
The now identified Kuchisake shrugged, "My kid recently joined. I'd hate it if I didn't watch him fight at all."
Even after all these years, Dolce couldn't quite fit into that mentality, but he didn't condemn her for it either. "Fair enough"
They both went their separate ways after that.
