Life
Dave was born into a 3rd class working home. His father was a mechanic working for a private company, and his mother was an elementary school teacher. He had an older sister, Melly, who aspired to be a social worker. They lived in the populous district of London, where, on the 29th of February 2066, an uprising was violently repressed by state robots, killing all of Dave's family and leaving him gravely injured.

Following the completion of his studies, he was privately schooled by Dr. Ernst Wessen, who recommended him for a position at the University in the Capital. During his admissions process, he was contacted by the leader of the rebellious group Project Gargoyle, which aims to expose and undermine the faceless government. Vying to learn the truth about the incident that killed his family, Dave accepts and assumes a new identity as Zap.
