Rab (Embankment Station)

Rab was a 21st century computer genius.

Early life
Rab was a non-white, working-class man living in London. He did some phone-hacking for Naomi Davies, getting him in trouble with the law, but he was able to avoid prosecution by doing "a few favours" for certain parties. After this, he swore off hacking phones in the future.

Naomi implied that he hacked into the CIA's mainframe and stole software (AUDIO: Embankment Station) and Woking had reason to believe that he was connected to every major hacking scandal over a ten year period. (AUDIO: Ruffling)

The Embankment phenomena
Rab was aware of the strange goings-on following the Embankment tube station tremor and met with Naomi Davies at his usual café, using software that he had made to enhance her video of Charlotte Pollard and Robert Buchan being transported away from Embankment on stretchers and agreeing to try to find out who they were. He called Naomi later that day to tell her that Embankment had been closed again after two naked corpses were found; he then hacked into the CCTV and observed the Identical Men, whom he told Naomi about when she made her second visit. He also told her of the connection between Embankment and six suicides. (AUDIO: Embankment Station)

Rab went with Naomi to Embankment and was, like her, arrested after unwittingly entering a cordoned-off zone. They were taken to Woking by the Minister, who believed that they might be Charley and Robert, and they agreed to sign the Official Secrets Act and assist Woking in stopping the Identical Men. Rab was told to sit still when the Identical Men attacked but he attempted to leave with Naomi, Charley, Robert and Bertram before they were stopped by an armed Woking. (AUDIO: Ruffling)

Personality
Rab felt safer in crowds (AUDIO: Embankment Station) and did not trust the government. (AUDIO: Ruffling) He was not good with the sight of blood, fainting after Woking vomited blood. (AUDIO: Seed of Chaos)
