Warren's father was a fallen English catholic priest, kicked out of the church for impregnating Warren's mother, an IRA demolition's expert who had been taking sanctuary within the church.  His father's dismissal and forced marriage changed him and he became abusive towards both his wife and son.  Growing up in Belfast was difficult, and while attending catholic school he learned just how hard life can be.  He was beaten by the other children after they learned of his father's scandal, the scandal also caused him to be scorned by the nuns of the school.  At home his father would beat Warren because he reminded him of his sin,.  His mother was the only one who seemed to care for him, and he devoted himself to her.  Then when he was 16 he found himself dating a protestant girl.  It was then that his mother became active again at the request of old comrades.  Tragedy befell when a bomb made by his mother killed his girlfriend and several other people out side the American Embassy.  He disowned his family, his religion, and his country on that day.

He found himself in England running with a street gang and was gaining himself a small criminal record and fast on his way to becoming an alcoholic, when he was picked up for assault after a gang fight.  The judge gave him two choices, military or prison, he chose the military.  He quickly fell into place here, and soon found himself in the SAS, and while he was reprimanded for his drunken behavior several times he found this life to be to his liking.  After a a few years of distinguished service, and earning an impressive combat record, he was switched to a black ops team.   He began to relish in his work, and was sent to china for the covert assassination of a known drug trafficker.  It was here that Warren had first felt peace in his entire life, he began seeing a young chinese girl named Shennie May Chong and things looked well.  When he was ordered to complete the mission he grudgingly set to work.  Then when he found out that his job was to eliminate the target, his wife, and 2 small children Warren went berserk, killing 2 of his teammates and escaping with his chinese fiancee' into the mountains.  Shennie-May had come from a village high in the mountains, and it was here that Warren found a way to control and Focus his alcoholism, with the help of a master of Tsui Pa Tsien.   Warren married the girl, and seemed to straighten himself out, especially after their child was born.  Then once again misfortune struck, the surviving members of his old team found Warren, and ambushed him and his family as they were driving up the mountain, returning from town.  Warren tried to evade the attack, but it was too sudden and too fierce, and his car careened off a cliff.  His wife and child were alive until the car hit bottom then burst into flames, Thrown from the car at the last moment warren watched helpless as his family burned to death.  The crash had cost him his family, his faith, and his right arm which had been ripped off his body in the fall.

Warren escaped, and after some checking found out that it was widely believed he died in the crash, Warren used this to his advantage, calling himself only Redemption, he hired himself out as an assassin, a mercenary, whatever he could get so long as it was dangerous, and allowed him to keep his anonymity.  He worked for years all over the world, when he happened to meet with Char in the Caribbean.  Char instantly took a liking to him, and hired him, making Redemption his long reaching arm.  Keeping him unknown from all but the inner circle, and using him as an advance assassin, sent in to eliminate competition in an area before Autumn Blade moves in, and to eliminate foreign enemies who are untouchable by normal means.

Warren feels tremendous guilt for his wife and child's death, thinking that if he had been more skilled, or if he had left Shennie in the first place they would be alive to day.   This is why he chose the name Redemption, feeling that the only way to redeem himself is through a violent death.  Redemption is a master at infiltration, blending in so well you could look right at him and not notice it, he is an alcoholic, and a womanizer, and a master of drunken boxing.  He is also highly skilled with handguns, explosives, and just plain dirty tricks.   He is an expert at what he does, and that is remaining undetected before and after a hit, and he plans his marks very carefully.   He has recently befriended Blaine Callow, after the youth helped him and his old comrade Gypsy out of a very difficult situation, and even more recently on his assignment in Neo-City has found himself falling in love with a young singer named Crystal.  Personality wise, Redemption is arrogant and boisterous, sometimes prone to depression, but underneath it all he is a consummate professional.

Chance came from a middle income family living in the suburbs, his father, the local newspaper publisher, got him a job delivering papers when he was 12, and hoped that it would interest him in joining the profession.  Instead what Chance realized, was that he loved being out on his own, on his bike, and when he turned 14 he quit working for the paper,  and hired himself out as a courier to some of the local businesses.  He was soon gaining a anem for himself as one the best couriers in town.  When he was 18 he bought 2 motorcyles, A Takata 9000  and a custom freestyle bike.  It was around this time he fell into a motorcycle club and began racing in his spare time.  The races were simple street races, usually for pink slips, but Chance never lost, nor did he ever have any interest in racing professionally.  It was during one of these races that Chance was noticed by Scott Harada.  The two became friends, and would often ride together, although they talked little of their professional lives at the time.  It was when Chance confessed his need for excitement that Scott introduced him to Char, and he has served as Autumn Blades courier ever since.

Chance is impeccably loyal, if caught he will resist, then give a very convincing cover story, all the while stating that he isn't sure who he works for, that he has never met his employer.  Although most of his work is legitimate, working officially for Nakajimo Imports, and subsidiaries, he has also ben known to deliver packages for Autumn Blade itself.  Chance isn't much of a fighter, and doesn't really like guns all that much, relying on his bike to get him out of most situations.  Still he does understand his work can be dangerous, and carries a Norse Technologies "Fafnir", his philosophy being, "If I am gonna shoot something, its gonna die."

Personality wise, Chance is friendly outgoing, and courteous, and just a bit of a scoundrel.  He lives for speed, and is happiest when racing his bike at break neck speeds through heavy traffic.

Born in the "combat zone" to parents who just didn't care about anything but their next fix, Maddoc's life was difficult.  His childhood was spent getting into trouble one way or another, usually of a violent nature.  When he was 12 he left home one evening and simply never came back, preferring life on the streets to life in his home where he was either beaten or simply ignored completely.  He fell heavily into the drug culture, and started mugging people to pay for his habit.  A few months after his 15th birthday, Mark Stryker ended up saving Maddoc's life from a small booster gang he had just ripped off, and the two have been inseparable ever since.   A chance trip to Jamaica came to be a disastrous choice after Maddoc killed a police officer after he tried to confiscate his drugs, and the two ended up in prison where they met,  and escaped with "Rasta" Mike, Blaine Callow, Gypsy, and Alex Archley.

At 16 years of age Maddoc is the juvenile delinquent bodyguard of Mark Stryker, and while he doesn't officially work for Autumn Blade, his relationship with Mark provides that Autumn Blade keep informed of his activities.   Maddoc is dangerously addicted to drugs, favoring hallucinogens, and speed, but taking anything he can get his hands on.  He is also known for using women, slipping drugs into girls drinks and having his way with them, all the while keeping his two girlfriends Hairy Moo Pie and Sarah Thompson, inline through the use of drugs.  Maddoc is extremely dangerous, and is wanted in Night City for multiple counts of rape, drug possession and distribution, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, assault, assault with a deadly weapon murder (including the murders of 3 police officers), and robbery.  For someone so young, Maddoc is extremely violent and dangerous, and his habit of mixing any and all drugs he can get his hands on only escalates the situation.  Strangely enough, Maddoc is very charismatic, and possesses a strange sort of streetwise charm, it is almost hypnotic, and even though the majority of people he comes in contact with would normally despise him, they end up liking him, very strange indeed.  Maddoc's most prized possession is a switchblade knife, it was the only thing he took from his parents, and while he has been known to carry a gun, he always has the knife on him.

Alex was born a motorhead, working as mechanic in his fathers autoshop.  He continued his education through college, and his exceptional prowess with machines got him a job teaching shop at NCU.  Unfortunately, Alex has one other love in his life besides mechanics, synthcoke.  His addiction to the drug got him fired from his teaching position, and eventually landed him in jail.  This is where he met "Rasta" Mike, Blaine, Gypsy, Mark, and Maddoc.  His affinity for makeshift devices was one of the key contributors to their escape, and is the main reason his friendship with them has persisted.  Alex was hired along with the rest of them after the Redemption operation.  Alex and few of the other team members have recently begun traveling with a band of musicians on tour, as it is a perfect cover for "Rasta" Mike to distribute the weapons and drugs that Autumn Blade sells through him.

Christina comes from a suburban family, and after high school attended medical school, Unfortunately it was while at college that she developed a drug problem.  She began abusing her privileges, illegally procuring morphine and taking it.  In her third year she was caught and summarily expelled from school.  What at the time was possibly the worst moment in her life, also was one of the luckiest.  During the hearing at the board of inquiries, a woman named Karen Nagel, who had been touring the school while waiting to present a research grant from Militech, took notice of Christina.  Seeing that she could well use a young medical students expertise, and knowing her lack of a Degree of medicine would keep her loyal to the company (or at least to her).  Karen recruited young Christina, after  a brief conversation revealed she specialized in cybernetics.   She found herself working for one of Militech's cybernetic R&D subsidiaries.  This is where she met Nathan.  She is the head medical officer in Nathan's group, her expertise in cybernetic application is very promising.

Her role in Autumn Blade is the same as Nathan's, as is her knowledge of the organization.  Although her role is of dual importance, as it always helps to have friendly doctors you can call on in an emergency.  Christina is somewhat cold, and while she is very flirtatious when it suits her, she is really only jovial with Nathan.  Her bedside manner is especially detached, and her patients refer to her as the ice princess.
