He first encountered the nightworld after he was arrested for breaking into secure systems. A mysterious benefactor sprung his bail in exchange for his services and Mac worked for the man he knew only as Walker for just over a year, ostensibly as a computer consultant, but in reality heading up the criminal's hacking ring. Despite working with him closely, Mac was unaware was a vampire until one fateful night. When they we're walking back to Walker's building after a drinking session they encountered a vampire feeding off a vagrant. Realisng he'd been seen, the vampire attacked, forcing Walker to reveal his own vampiric nature in order to defeat him.
Faced with his boss's true nature, Mac ran for his life. He holed up in a bar on the other side of town whilst he tried to collect his thoughts and get a handle on what he'd seen.
Unbeknownst to him, he was being watched. The cult had know he was working for Walker, and of Walker's true nature. What they had wrongly assumed was that Mac was also a vampire. As he left the bar, he was abducted by the cult, who subjected him to a series of tests. Eventually, he convinced them he was human, but was shocked to be told he could never go home, that Walker had to kill him because he knew about the nightworld. As a consequence, he threw his lot in with the cult, reasoning they were his best chance at staying alive.
When dealing with computers, Mac is supremely confident. In every other aspect of life, he is somewhat gauche and inept. He has never had a girlfriend, and is very shy with women.He can fight, a little, and has a basic grasp of self defence.As a consequence, he is very good at lateral thinking in order to use what's around him to his advantage and whilst his street smarts are improving evry day with the cult, he still has a lot to learn.
Mac never travels anywhere without his laptop, a machine as state of the art as the cult could steal. He also wears a backpack with a specially built harness so he can type whilst free-standing.
He usually wears jeans, a t-shirt and a crumpled old black leather jacket.
