    "Twenty Questions"/Background:

1.) Where from?
    Seattle, Puyallup Barrens, Loveland

2.) Does your character have a family?
    Yes. Mother & little sister, both human. Father was a soldier from Ft. Lewis (so Mom says). Mother doesn't like Nona (hasn't since Nona goblinized; this was part of Nona's 'move' to the streets) & spends most of her time either chipping or whoring. Little sister is twelve.

3.) Ethnic background
    Quarter Salish. Mother is half Salish.

4.) Appearance
    Black hair cut in a rough shag & shoulder-length (gets slicked and pulled back into a ponytail for work), dark brown eyes, average-looking for a female ork (thus 'ugly' in human standards or at least plain), slightly taller than the average ork, very athletic/in shape, knife-scars scattered over her body from knife fights, left temple shaved for the datajack and behind the right ear for the chipjacks and the nape of the neck for the VCR, and a 'tribal' raven tattoo on her right bicep.

5.) Dress:
    Dress up for chauffeur/bodyguard work (see armor and clothing), and down for everything else. Very self-conscious about cleanliness bordering on neurotic (remarks about orks smelling like pigs don't make her real happy).

6.) Physical quirks:
    Cracks knuckles when tense and/or nervous.

7.) Where were Active skills learned?
    Mostly on or from the streets/gang and self-taught; a few were initially taught by bodyguard contact (bodyguarding, corp etiquette, pistols).

8.) Knowledge skills?
    Same, with more being self-taught (rebuilding engines, area knowledge, etc.).

9.) Where did the gear come from?
    Some was boosted, the rest being 'earned' either through work (chauffeur/bodyguard deal) or blackmail ("Discretion comes with a price.")

10.) Where living?
    Puyallup proper, trying to 'move up'.

11.) Likes? Dislikes?
    Likes - Her sister and anything that makes her sister happy. Dislikes - being ignored in favor of 'bimbos' and 'slitches' &/or thought stupid for being an ork AND a woman.

12.) Goal(s)?
    Get kid sister out of Mom's house & to a good school (kid may be[come] a shaman). Get better, more 'high-brow' work.

13.) Personality quirk
    Opinionated. She'll keep her mouth shut about them until irked, however.

14.) Views on role as a shadowrunner?
    "Do what it takes" - shadowrunning is a slightly evil necessitty for survival and getting ahead in the world. Won't take 'really twisted' jobs or ones that compromise her dignity (kidnapping kids, wetwork on the 'undeserving', prostitution, and so on) but will do just about anything else.
