Brooke Warrington

Brooke Taylor Warrington, also known as Brooke Hathaway and Zero, is a human who worked for MODUS during the Unification War, and subsequently serves as the current OverDirector for the UHE's Office for Anomalous Defense. Publicly, she is known as a senior member of the Hawthorne Culinary Society, and operates a series of restaurants across the UHE territories.

Although it is known that Brooke shares a connection with the late Booker Warrington, the nature of this relation is not fully understood. It has been suggested that the two fill the same role within their respective origin realities, but evidence for this is severely lacking.

Early Life
According to Brooke herself, she was born on a planet under the jurisdiction of the United Union of Uniting Unionists, under a name she has refused to divulge. DNA testing has confirmed her to be majorly of European descent, similar to citizens of the former Galactic Union.

While little else is known about Brooke's childhood, many facts have been gleaned from various conversations:
 * She had a pet dog named Benito, after Benito Mussolini.
 * She received some form of combat training from a short stint in the military, which ended with her being honourably discharged.
 * Knife-throwing was taught to her by her father, beginning in her early teenage years.
 * She was exposed to a version of the FY33 serum at the age of 29, halting the ageing process.

Arrival in the Human-Hyalean Empire
As a result of a malfunctioning phase device, Brooke was deposited onto Mt. Tenebrous on the planet of Frindalis in 2528, resulting in a tear in reality at the location of arrival. She was unable to return to her former multiversal coordinates, even after commandeering a phase-capable UCF troop carrier from the city's barracks. This incident resulted in her capture by Daimyo Elizabeth Dunham, upon which her similarities to Booker Warrington were discovered. UCF scientists were, however, unable to explain the significance of this detail, leading to Dunham keeping her on a retainer indefinitely.

Conflict with the Consortium
When the 2533 Tartarus Elections arrived, Daimyo Dunham was among one of the many individuals with the influence and wealth to finance a major candidate. To ensure victory, Dunham sent Brooke to Decimus in an attempt to hamper the progress of the Union-funded Consortium. Brooke succeeded in assassinating General Abraham Hame, the Consortium's liaison with the Galactic Union, and prevented the installation of an electronic backdoor into the Tartarus polling devices. Eventually Brooke reached the Escher Vault, where she first encountered Booker Warrington attempting to teach the Tartarus server in order to modify the election results. After a brief scuffle with her counterpart, Booker revealed that their encounter had been a ruse, and that the newly-elected Tartarus board members had been successfully assimilated by Sophie Beumers. Defeated, Brooke returned to Dunham, but
