Kit Ballenger – Agent # 000415
Agent Ballenger’s story is a tragic one, yet also a typical one when it comes to the histories of the agents of Bureau 13. Though Kit’s particular defining moment you could say was the result of just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Kit was an Army sharpshooter, husband, and father of three and by even his own account, had a good life. He decided to not resign for another tour and retire from the Army, seeking to spend more time with his family and the kits he barely knew. It was a public family event at the now-defunct Zootopia Embassy that a bombing occurred and caused several large sections of the building to fall onto the public below. Kit’s wife and children were killed in the incident and Kit himself critically injured in both legs and right arm.
Despite the lifesaving efforts of the mammals at Zootopia General, Kit was resolute in not trying to survive, deciding to join his family in death. However, Agent Ellison intervened and convinced him to join Bureau 13 to avenge his family’s death and put a stop to the council and it’s dealings so that no other families suffer a similar fate.
Agent Ballenger's augmentations include prosthetic legs from the kneecaps down, right arm entirely replaced. Several standard internal augmentations similar to Kaiden’s, enhanced vision giving him his trademark blue eye glow, enhanced hearing, smell, just to name a few.
Kit’s style of fighting is dissimilar than that of his more energetic partner, being more pragmatic, patient and calm, he will let his targets come to him and take them out with a long rifle if he can. Though Kit is calm in his demeanor that doesn’t mean he is cold and unfeeling, he’s a very passionate and caring individual and because of that, he feels he must temper his emotions to maintain focus on the mission at paw.
