Adil Hakim — the name is synonymous with technological warfare and technological terrorism. The man is a genius. As a child he was always fascinated with computer technology — in particular, the internet. Living in a poor home, he and Moshat never had the luxury of owning a computer. They had a small Nintendo between the two of them that they could use, but that was as far as it went. However, at school, Adil oft spent his time using their computers, hiding in the library, hacking into the network. The majority of the time, he succeeded. Then he studied IT for GCSE. Adil was always bright, no matter the topic — but computing was his strongest subject. During his teenage years, Adil was heavily bullied. It disrupted his experience from enjoying school. And the only reason he enjoyed school was because he was able to use their computing systems. 

Once he was old — and able — enough, he hacked into the school’s network and altered his attendance. He gave himself 100% when, in reality, it was more like 75%. The teachers found out, but had no idea how he had done it. And then one day, when he was trying to do it for a friend of his, a teacher caught them and together they got busted. Somehow, though, and perhaps rather unsurprisingly, Adil was the only one who was punished; his “friend” managed to get off scot-free. 
 

After the death of his parents, Adil and Moshat were adopted by a stranger. There, the stranger learned of Adil’s ability to hack into things. Subsequently, Adil was placed under more strenuous tasks: hacking into local cafe networks, then libraries, train stations. Intrigued, their saviour sent him away to the Amazon Rainforest, where Adil learnt everything he could about hacking, technological warfare, and the like. Once they had returned, and under the guise of trying to live a “normal” life, Adil went to university. Cambridge. His degree: computer sciences. Not to anyone’s surprise, Adil excelled. In fact, he surpassed the entire course and the rest of his classmates in his second year. And by the time he got to his final year, he left. 
 

The only reason being the fact that he and Moshat were preparing themselves for their attack, so he needed time to prepare the necessary equipment. By the age of 25, Adil was able to create a person out of thin air, falsify multiple documents, create an EMP device unlike the world had ever seen, and hack into every communications system in an entire city.
