Why They Matter

An Altered-Soldier Program operative whose exacting telekinesis made him indispensable to the Chosen Circle's tactical quarter.

Who They Were

Jordan Miles was recruited into Project Øpus's Altered-Soldier Program and trained to turn telekinetic precision and kinetic-energy manipulation into controlled field capability.

The choices that still follow them

The Story That Made Them

Project Øpus grouped Dime with Zara Adom, The Fade, and Backstab as the Altered-Soldier Program expanded.
He later joined Red Tail and AR in the Chosen Circle's Quarter of Technology and Tactical Support, where precision matters more than spectacle.

The Moment Everything Changed

Dime's abilities were shaped inside a program built to enhance useful operatives. His place in the Chosen Circle tests whether skill created by an unethical institution can be reclaimed for a better purpose.

Capability ratings use a separate 1-7 scale, with higher numbers indicating greater capability in each category. They apply to biological, technological, mystical, and other abilities. Provisional values are estimates awaiting verification. These ratings are distinct from response levels and Judd Metrology's scientific findings. Empty channels indicate an assessment is pending, never a zero rating.
