[edit] Character History
[edit] Recovery One
He first appears in Out of Mind Episode 3, trying to break into a small shop, as he is out of work. Tex hires him in a mission to find Omega, which he agrees to out of vengeance. Apparently Omega was responsible for damaging his left eye during an unspecified incident concerning Tex, possibly trying to kill her to destroy Omega. Tex somehow was simultaneously not to blame for the damage, yet the reason his right eye wasn't harmed. York assists Tex by breaking into Wyoming's hideout, in which they both receive heavy fire upon entering. They are successful in eliminating his armed guards, but are unable to eliminate Wyoming himself. Tex had a clear shot at Wyoming, but her gun jammed, requiring York to cover for her. Moving in panic to cover Tex, York put himself in a position where he couldn't see Wyoming (due to the bad vision in his left eye) and was mortally wounded. His armor shut down once he died, sending out a Priority One signal, in which his AI is eventually retrieved by a recovery agent and his armor is "decommissioned".
[edit] Reconstruction
As revealed by Washington in the first episode of Reconstruction, York's armor enhancement was not destroyed as may have been previously believed, but taken by Washington.
[edit] Death
York was killed during Out of Mind episode 5 by Agent Wyoming.

[edit] Other
- As revealed by Tex, each Freelancer was given a codename after one of the states of America. It is obvious that York is simply shorthand for his official codename, New York.
- The fact that York, who'd been stealing for (presumably) years for himself to make ends meet has not gone by his Freelancer codename (much to the converse of Tex, who still operates in military operations). This is why York and Allison are names neither are used to hearing respectively.
- The fact that agents Texas, Washington, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Carolina (singular because she was given 2 AIs representing both Carolinas.) go by the nicknames Tex, Wash, North, South, and Carolina respectively all also support the possibility that York's codename was New York.
- Foxtrot 12 may have been an identification used for York prior to being accepted into the Freelancer program or just merely an alternate designation altogether. Be it for the Freelancer program, infiltration assignments, or any other outside military operations is unknown.
- York's healing agent is very effective. It is able to keep York alive for much longer then traditionally possible and allowed Washington to survive a direct shot to the back.
