DOB 2035 Sex Male Height Tall Build Averahe Nationality EVO
Description: Renaissance is a product of EVO’s transhumanist culture, fully embracing the melding of man, machine and magic to form a greater whole. Unlike some who have had cyber limb replacements, he voluntarily had his legs replaced with the digigrade raptor design to make himself taller and faster. After serving some time in the corporate security services he dedicated himself to close protection work. The exact story of how he left EVO’s employ isn’t widely known but he has subsequently set himself up, highly successfully, as an independant contractor and has an impressive list of pleased clientelle. He never stays on one posting for more than a year but that doesn’t stop him getting some top drawer details.
Uses: He keeps a close eye on events in the parts of the world he serves in and is a good general source of knowledge on local events. If you can get on his list he can offer bodyguard services too Places to Meet: Matrix Contact: Commcode Available: Very rarely in person, he’ll call you back!

DOB 2076 (when she became free) Sex Female Height Short Build Slight Nationality None
Description: Petal was once Dream's ally spirit but when he was turned the shock and trauma set her free. She tired to remain by her former master's side, but the growing darkness in him, as the virus took over more and more, forced her away. Eventually she was unable to stand by and watch as the man she'd loved succumbed to the virus. She went her own way until the Old One offered her Dream's position in the Choir. She was reluctant at first but the Old One is difficult to refuse and her intimate knowledge of the Choir's goals made her final acceptance almost inevitable.
Preferred Runners: Hooders Uses: Magical knowledge and support Places to Meet: In person

DOB Unknown Sex Ambiguous Height Varies Build Varies Nationality None
Description: The Child appears on the astral as a multi-limbed spirit, and this is perhaps its truest form, however it recognises that some find that disturbing and when it materialises it usually takes the very non-threatening form of a little girl. It is a seer and plys its trade with the Cirque de l'Ombre as a sideshow freak, telling fortunes to those that come to see it. Its motivations for doing so are as alien as its true form but it is clear that it meddles in events, prodding at the skiens of fate according to some unknown plan of its own.
Uses: Obscure future knowledge, metaplanar gateways Places to Meet: At the Cirque Contact: In person Available: When the Cirque is in town

Name & Principle Alias Dominique Dubois ""Festivale""
Ethnicity & Metatype Caucasian Human
DOB 2050 Sex Female Height Average Build Slight Nationality French
Description: When she’s on the stage she’s a blazing force of nature, off the stage she’s much closer to the ashes of the Phoenix’s life cycle…for those she runs with it is a mixed blessing that she considers shadowruns to be part of her grand performance. That’s not to say she will deliberately do things to make the run more risky but she would rather be the blaze than the whisper of smoke.
Preferred Runners: Those with a sense of style Uses: Info on the music and media scene in Seattle Places to Meet: Clubs she’s playing, party venues Contact: Commcode Available: At night usually

DOB 2062 Sex Female Height Average Build Willowy Nationality Renraku
Description: Song appears to be a corporate princess in open rebellion to her former corporate masters, an image she doesn’t mind fostering as it makes many in the shadows underestimate her. She is grateful for the skills she picked up with them and is more than happy to use those in service of others, even against Renraku. The circumstances of her defection to the shadows are hazy and she clams up when questioned about them but those who have worked with her respect her skills and are forced to acknowledge that a hacker that can ply their trade without dropping in a heap on the floor is valuable on any run.
Uses: Intel on the Japancorps, AR hacking Places to Meet: Matrix hangouts or decker bars Contact: Commcode
Name & Principle Alias Min Lai ''Song''

DOB 2060 Sex Female Height Tiny Build Tiny Nationality None
Description: The rustic idyll of a fae tribe on the edge of the Seelie Court might appeal to some, not so to Poppy who resented the slavish adherence to the Old Ways and the worship of the mighty Elves set above them. She craved the bright lights of the modern world glimpsed on the edge of their domains, to such an extent that she was ostracised from the tribe. This wasn’t enough for some of her peers and on the day she was due to leave they dragged her in to the woods and beat her almost to the point of Vanish…but she was stubborn and refused to fade away. Instead Fate, or Chance intervened and she was found by scouts of the UnSeelie Court. Broken and spent they nevertheless tried to patch her back together as best they could and eventually smuggled her out of the Tir, a debt for which she still owes them.
Despite her uneducated upbringing she has striven to teach herself about the New World and has become an accomplished decker…in the matrix size really doesn’t matter and she can hide from her own broken form.
Preferred Runners: Ones that are happy to work with an anonymous hacker Uses: Matrix intel, occasional support Places to Meet: In the matrix, seldom in her iDoll’s flesh Contact: Commcode Available: Most of the time, she’s another matrix addict that rarely sleeps

Membership: 100-1000 (+2), Scope: Local Area (+0), Finances: Limited (+1), Magic: Some (+1), Matrix: Limited (+1)
Description:The Mechanicals are an urban tribe now holed up in a geothermal plant on the outskirts of Orting in Puyallup. In fact they’ve taken over much of the small town below as their demense and walled it off against outsiders like an old school motte and bailey fortification. They are steampunk enthusiasts with a penchant for scounging tech and repurposing it as well as hydroponics farmers and they even offer limited medical aid to the locals (there aren’t all that many locals in the ash wastes around their home).
They’ve had bitter experiences over the last few years since teaming up with the FreΣdom Tribe, facing off raids and even a devastating ghoul attack. They are understandably wary of strangers but they have big hearts and once you prove yourself to them then they are extremely loyal.
Uses: Juryrigged but servicable tech, steampunk styling, a place to lay low in an emergency Places to Meet: Orting or at the Crime Mall or local scrap heaps Contact: Face to face
Name & Principle Alias Cam
Ethnicity & Metatype Caucasian Ghoul
DOB 2050 Sex Male Height Average Build Gaunt Nationality None
Description: Cam had a reasonable life, possibly even a good one by the standards of Puyallup, as an enforcer for the Mechanicals urban tribe. That was until the late summer of ’75 when, for as yet undetermined reasons, some sick fragger rounded up a load of feral ghouls from the barrens, herded them in to the back of a container and then dumped them on the tribals in the middle of a celebration. Although the tribals fought them off it wasn’t without significant cost…for Cam it was a very personal cost as he contracted the Kreiger strain. Thankfully whatever strength of character he possessed has enabled him to retain at least a semblance of his original personality.
He is driven, both to cling to his humanity and prove his worth to the tribe. Almost inevitably he has become cold and distant, for self-preservation from the pitying looks from his peers as much as anything else.

DOB 2055 Sex Male Height Tall Build Robust Nationality Welsh (SINless)
Description: Dafydd was born in the wilds of the Welsh mountains to a small clan of giants. Although he has never relinquished his love of the wilderness he never the less felt the draw of the bright lights of civilisation… being small for his race may have had something to do with it too. He left the clan when he came of age and sought his fortune, first in Cardiff, then London. He quickly realised there wasn’t much call for his skills in the big cities and so set off around the world to see new sights and explore new wildernesses.
Preferred Runners: Ones with a respect for the wilds Uses: Wilderness guide Contact: Commcode

Ethnicity & Metatype Caucasian Giant
Born 2055 Sex Male Height Extremely Tall Build Robust Nationality Welsh (SINless) Description Whether Dafydd was named as a joke, he is slightly small for a giant, which is to say ridiculously tall for the modern world. His bark-like skin is even more pronounced than some giants making him look very much like the Ents of that story.
DOB 2047 Sex Male Height Short Build Overweight Nationality None
Description: Weaver was a co-founder of the FreΣdom hacker Tribe alongside Prospero but differences of opinion on how the tribe should be governed led to a parting of the ways. Weaver was fond of the comforts that illicit hacking could bring and found Prospero’s desire to stay on the fringes of the barrens to be lacking in vision. He still maintains connections with the tribe and has even lured one or two away with the promise of a better life. When Silk came to him with her stories of the Pattern he had an epiphany of sorts and has subsequently agreed to work closely with her and her Patterners, all with the intention of furthering his own quest for personal wealth and the comforts of the VR world.
Uses: VR matrix support Places to Meet: The Matrix Contact: Commcode
