Takeshi Lev Kovacs is a native of Harlan's World and a former member of the Colonial Tactical Assault Corps. Kovacs is of Japanese and Eastern-European descent, and was a teenage gang member before enlisting in the UN Marine Corps. After leaving the UN military, Kovacs turned to the Envoys, eventually becoming one of their most respected and feared members. Following the defeat of the Uprising, Kovacs returned to criminal life and became a mercenary, and was eventually imprisoned, his cortical stack stored without a body for decades at a time as punishment before being paroled or hired out to work high-risk situations. His consciousness was eventually imprinted back into a new sleeve in 2384.
