How old is your Phoenix and why did they join the agency?

Nick is, at the time of KBOOM, 34. Between the significant social isolation, the autism, and the. Other things making their brain work weird. They're not hard to mistake for younger, but that's an adult.

They joined the Agency when they were 20! They were dropping out of college, and a position as a field operative was the only option they had other than moving back into a shitty home situation. They were listed on the books for years as a "candidate" rather than an "Agent" so they could be paid less, despite being used in fieldwork prior to their formal clearance for fieldwork after their successful implant procedure when they were 32-33.

They were cleared for the TK implant in part because of their knack for spatial reasoning; even prior to getting extra TK "limbs", they were very good at interpreting 3D space internally.
