Lu Li Cabrone
Street Name: Braid
Archetype: Stealth Specialist/Second Story Worker

She was born in 2050, in Manila, Philippines. Her mother worked in the Azanian Embassy as a contract AR/VR data processing technician.

There she met and had a relationship with a member of the Azanian Embassy Social Exchange Staff. Since he was very good at social skills, he was able to convince her to go beyond a friendship.

They had several trysts, in various paid for locations, once in one supplied by the Social Exchange of the Azanian Embassy. After several months of this relationship, she discovered that she was pregnant, she told her lover, and he basically laughed. He then told her, he had another lover, and she could do what she wished with the child, it was not his.

Soon after that her Catholic conservative parents found out, and cast her out from their home. She was able to find a place and work at the Azanian Embassy, but work at the Azanian Embassy was getting a bit strained as her pregnancy began showing. Towards the end of her pregnancy, her supervisor found an error in some work she had done and they terminated her contract with the Azanian Embassy.

She was able to find work where she could in Manila, and when Lu Li was born, things got worse, since she had delivered a Souvenir Baby whose father was obviously not Filipino, her jobs she had been able to find, were no longer available to her.

Her mother was able to find ways to survive for several years, her mothers family refused to help or assist her.

When she was 6 years old her mother died during a firefight between Japanese government forces and the Huk.

She was turned over to her grandparents due the laws at the time; her grandparents were less than pleased at her arriving into their custody. Her being of very dark skin and taller than average height, made it known that she is a half breed.

So her grandparents were able to contact a buyer of young girls, she was sold to this buyer, and her grandparents told everyone she had died of disease.

The buyer later sold her to the Yellow Lotus Triad in Hong Kong, where she was trained be to be a Bunraku. During her time with the Yellow Louts Triad extensive alterations were performed on her, to enhance her appeal to certain type of well playing clientèles.

After several years of working for the Yellow Lotus Triad, more alterations were performed on her, many at the specific request of specific customers.

When she turned 14, while working with a customer, the Red Dragon Association Triad conducted its elimination of the Yellow Lotus Triad in Hong Kong. Her customer did not survive the Red Dragon Association Triad assault but she did.

She acquired by the Ten Thousand Lions Triad, and worked for them as a Bunraku.
After working for them 2 years, there was an attack on the Bunraku parlor she worked in by two groups Sie and Rote Zora.

She along with several of her female coworkers were removed from the Bunraku parlor and smuggled out of Hong Kong to a Mother Earth deprogramming facility. After many months of deprogramming by Mother Earth/Sie/Rote Zora, they gave her training to assist them on similar missions against places of prostitution around the Far East.

She spent 4 years working for the Mother Earth, Sie and Rote Zora. But she/they felt that she had been too active, and that her appearance made her more of a liability in the Far East for too long, and the Far Eastern Syndicates, Mafia and Vory were getting wise to there methods and attacks.

She then requested a change in area of operations or a vacation for a while. It was granted and she chose Seattle due to its Syndicates and brothel activities. The Seattle Syndicates had no description of her, and Mother Earth/Sie/Rote Zora activities in the Seattle region were non existent. So certain Mother Earth/Sie/Rote Zora agents were being integrated into the Seattle area.

There she was able to blend into the Changeling scenery, with no one being the wiser. It made an excellent cover for her too.

She has two contacts Bobbitt (Sie contact), and Ball Shotz (Rote Zora contact). With home she reports any intelligence or rumors to them.

Due to her past history and her working relationship with Mother Earth/Sie/Rote Zora, she has very strong feminist views, but can suppress her urge to do something drastic of some Hanger if he gets too far out of line.

She is 5’ 6’ in height, has chocolate brown colored skin with flawless tones, and no blemishes.

Her eyes are Asian shaped and a deep emerald green in color, and glow like a cats eyes in the dark when light is shined in them.

Her lips have been adjusted during her time as a working girl, are much fuller than she was born with, and tattooed a permanent ruby red color.

Her teeth were also adjusted, so now they are very white including the fangs, both upper and lower ones.

Her hair jet black, long down to her knees and very thick, she wears it in a single braid with will shorten it in length to about her waist. Due to her adjustments any cutting of her hair results in extremely rapid growth to the programmed length. All attempts to recolor the hair have failed, the coloring does not adhere to here hair strands. At several points in her working days she would suspended by her hair alone.

She extremely well built for one of her size, but she tends to dress in tight but not too revealing clothing.

That's actually a pretty scary concept. Imagine a mentally traumatized, radical, vengeful sex toy coming back to wreak vengance upon people who run and partronize bunraku parlors. Looking at such a person it would be hard to take them seriously because of how they look like a sex toy and yet they probably wouldn't be afraid of dying and would be capable of extreme, impulsive, and merciless brutality against anyone they see as connected with the social institution of bunraku.

Organized crime historically has often kept populations in line by sewing fear or terror, i.e. pay us protection money or we'll break your knees. But I would think that organized crime would begin to break down against large numbers of utterly suicidal and fearless former victims bent utterly on revenge. I think that in a hypothetical situation, 1930s mafia versus jihadist suicide bomber, the suicide bombers win, because the mafia guys are mostly concerned with self-preservation and gaining luxury, money, and comforts, and thus would not even want to be connected with, say, bunraku parlors if the money they got from that was cancelled out by having crazed suicide bombers kill your relatives every other week.

@Wounded Ronin
Are you familiar with the organizations of Mother Earth, Sie and Rote Zora?

I do not see suicidal attacks made by her, but she was counter programmed into a Feminist by those organizations, so one never knows.

Nice work.

To your first question, no.

To your second question, I'd suggest that suicidalness would stem from extensive psychological trauma moreso than from the intentional postmodern feminist training.

Mother Earth is a feminist organization, Sie(She) is a splinter group from Mother Earth with more extreme views, same with Rote Zora. All three are from SR source books.

Don't about the other two but Rote Zora are a RW reference. They carried out bombings in Germany in the 70's 80's and 90's.

Are the girls and boys in bunraku parlors chipped all the time, or only while they're working? If chipped 24/7, I'd expect that the kids would have severe mental atrophy. I remember hearing stories of orphanage kids with little/no stimulation or social interaction who become incapable of learning language, etc. Would this be a logical extension of this scenario? Would kids who spent what's supposed to be their formative years have to chip language and social skills for the rest of their life just to function?

@Apathy
IIRC the personafix chip is used only when a customer is "using" the puppet. There can be a wide range of personafix chips available for each customer to chose from.

I see most of the having data filters installed, but most of the time when not "working" the data filter is not active.

Again for the reasons you have stated being under a personafix chip and data filter engaged 24/7, will/could cause the "merchandise" to be less desirable over a long term time.

...even intermittent use of a personafix is not without it's dangers to the recipient. I could easily see an ex bunraku "worker" picking up the Multiple Personality Disorder quality.

In 3rd ed there was a flaw called Incomplete Deprogramming, which reflected the conditioning though drugs, brainwashing, and use of Aliasofts (personafix chips) to prepare covert agents for the various missions they were assigned to. This was a bit more random in that stressful situations were the trigger rather than simply rolling to switch persona. I believe the persona was also determined by the GM. This was a 4 pt flaw so it would probably translate to a +15 or +20bp NQ.

Aaaahhh! No more quotes! Do you see what the catgirl thread has done? Everyone knows what "working" means. We get it, it means SEX. It's just too "fucking" many quotes. Get it!?
*whew*
That said, it sounds like a fantastic concept for a character. It's not, "My va-jay-jay has a bear trap in it, teehee." It sounds like an excellent concept for a very real character who will have a great personality and no shortage of issues to explore, and it looks like it will all be done in a tasteful way that will contribute to the fun of everyone at the table. This is exactly the type of I-want-to-play-a-sex-puppet concept that would get approved at my table. Thank you for giving such a great example of why and how this sort of subject matter can/should be handled in SR, and please forgive my quote rant. ;-)

And I completely agree that someone who spent much of their life on personafixes should have some problems, but particularly if this character is going to be played in any kind of a social role it might be best to just let that be handled through RP rather than using negative qualities.

Oh, I see. Remove all the quotes so that now I look like a ranting idiot. Shrewd, Mr. Skins, very shrewd. But no matter. You're too late, for even as we speak the world leaders are unwittingly....*blink blink* :|
I mean...ummm.....
I'll be the first to admit that my rant was overly...enthusiastic, but there's a line between innuendo and know-what-I-mean-wink-wink-nudge-nudge-say-no-more and you, my friend, were over that line. ;) ;)

@ the OP

This is a really great character concept, and with a few tweaks here and there could fit into most any shadowrunning group a lot easier than a furry.

Good job.
