--What is the character's name?

Edgar Michael Thomas. He hasn't used that name since He joined a Special tactics squad in 2048 (he was 23). He's gone by Jasper for so long that its become more real than his birth name.

--What is the characters race, nationality, age, sex, height, weight, hair color, eye color, and skin color/tone, and build?

He was born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the usual north American mutt, mostly Irish and and and Portuguese with a smattering of Japanese and Cherokee. Raised in the CAS he got a good southern tan. At the age of forty five, his brown hair is turning grey and he's getting a good beer gut. 4'10" and 160lbs = kinda fat.

--Where did your character learn his/her skills?

He grew up racing beat up cars and four wheelin with friends. When he joined the army they took advantage of that and trained him along that track.


--What did your character do before becoming a runner?

his short stature and southern drawl made for an unassuming personality, he got drafted into a new military project that utilized him for unorthodox wet works utilizing engineering instead of combat prowess."happy little accidents". (When maintenance fixes your car or your elevator, look for the little black box)

--Does your character have any family?

He has an Alcoholic father and a saint of a mother that think he died 22 years ago. Doesn't want to make their lives any worse. Jasper is also hoping the army hasn't dragged them into the search for him since he went AWOL, but he can't risk the visit home.


--What are your characters dreams/goals/aspirations?

He has this one dream where SINderella is licking jack Daniels out of his chest hair, but hey, he's a lonely old man. Right now he's in survival mode. trying to get a safer place to hide out, get some better gear to defend himself. One day he imagines a little compound out in the woods where he can fish, drink, tinker in his garage, and maybe even find a little woman to cook for him. I mean how much could the Army care about an over the hill rigger anyway.

--What is the characters general appearance?

You ever have a car break down in "the middle of nowhere" and pull into the only garage for miles? You seen the guy that comes out to greet you? you notice how he's up to his eyeballs in grease even though there is obviously no other customers around? He's that guy. Old ball cap and safety glasses. sweaty and greasy 90% of the time. coveralls and work boots. his second chin looks like a bean bag chair for his face. his arms kinda stick out at the side because of his round shape. and unless you're a dwarf he's probably eye level with your nipples.

--Why did they choose to be a shadow-runner?

Gotta make the money. not gonna get honest work. he helped out at a chop shop for a while until he could get himself a truck. now he's moving up from crazy taxi, to small time smuggler, to doing some serious runs. Its hard to get used to the civilian tech, and his age isn't helping. so he's been knocked down quite a few pegs.


--What is the characters personality?

A little nihilistic, a little apathetic, a little lonely. but he has a rough, relaxed, and upbeat exterior. He doesn't take things too seriously and has a blunt sense of humor. (think Foghorn Leghorn if you get that reference)

--What skills does your character bring to this group? What makes them special?

He can drive better that just about anyone. you ride shotgun in his tata hotspur, you're probably getting away. also, he's pretty good with a toolbox, almost any toolbox. I think he adds a little bit of an "out of the box" option to have around. And like the military told him people aren't always expecting the dirty, short, fat man to kill them.

--What are some things your character cannot do?

Jasper can't jump or go toe to toe with trolls in swat gear. he can't sit through church or give elocution lessons. doesn't know the first thing about magic. He can't see his toes. He can't go a week without a beer. he can't play the guitar. he can't speak a second language(although he's been meaning to learn. typical confederate American) And he can't find a woman that can cook and put up with his jokes

--What does your character hate and why?

Arrogant special forces types. The military. civilians. Chinese food(it tears him a new one). cheap tools. Wine drinkers. neck ties. running out of beer. people that hack his network. Men crying. women crying. spam. torture(when used on him). Texas barbecue. befriending people just to kill them. talking politics. short jokes (fat jokes don't bother him)

--What does your character love?
North Carolina barbecue. Smooth operations. the sound of a clean engine. cold beer on a hot day. cold beer in general. a good screwgun. new cars. old cars. good jokes. old ball caps. dogs. racing. a good card game with friends. surprising the enemy in fun ways. lots of options.

--What does your character respect?
smart tactics. magic users. loyalty. people that hold their liquor. people that keep thier word.

--How was your character educated?

Homeschooled until he went into the military

--What is your characters moral code?

he's sick of killing for very little reason. he's still working on where to draw the line now that he's done it for so long. but when push comes to shove, all is fair in love and war. he's a believer in survival.

--Does your character have any political beliefs? Religious?

He's loosley Christian, and as he gets closer to the end of his life, it seems to come up more often. he's done with politics

--What item(s) does your character treasure?

every drone and vehicle he names. if you mention dorothy, he might cry.

--Tell me at least one thing I (as the GM) should know about your character.

Jasper misses having a tight knit team he considered friends. he hopes to have that again. But he trusts no one and usually has his drones scripted to kill anything that moves if his biomoniter goes dead and they don't hear from him in 30 seconds. hopefully he'll get to know smeone well enough to share the passkey.

Background
----------
Snow Flower has been in the clan since her youth, her parents were low level street thieves,
and she spent her time skipping school and running the streets entertaining herself in
various game parlors in Chiba. In her early teens she was sent to Seattle to serve in
a Tea House, and with her skills in games and with people she's quickly earned her
money for the clan and her parents retirement. For many years she's run the evening
shifts at the Golden Tiger Garden, a Tea House front for a yakuza gambling den. It's
an easy life, but lately she's grown in her powers through some ceremonial studies,
a fact which means she may need to leave the Tea House in service to the clan.

As someone who has studied to be a Shinto Priestess, it's a given that Snow Flower
knows something of the mystical arts, however, she keeps her the true extent of her
powers carefully hidden. Especially at work in the Tea House, where the knowledge
that the customer may be gambling against someone who can read minds and summon powers
from other worlds can lead to all sorts of problems. Accusations of unfairness must be
avoided. Of course, Snow Flower has no qualms of using her abilities to make all customers
feel happy and comfortable as they lose to the inevitable house percentages. She's quite
capable of generating an incredible level of tips for herself and her shift.

On a personal level, she doesn't think the gambling is real if she uses her powers to cheat.
On command, or to stop an especially hot customer streak, or if to stop other cheats, she
can exploit her powers in service of the clan quite well. Snow Flower is very scrupulous in
distinguishing between her personal gambling fun, and when she's doing it in service of the
clan.

Part of her training as a Hostess is to move gracefully, and as is traditional, she's chosen
a disguised art of protecting herself. It would alarm the customers unduly if they realized
that the supple woman in her traditional kimono and dancing fan was actually weilding a
razor sharp war fan and performing moves designed to cut open opponents vulnerable parts.
Adding the fact the war fan is a Shinto sanctified blade capable of inflicting wounds in
the mundane and spirit worlds would only make matters more uncomfortable for the customer.

Snow Flower prefers traditional gambling games that do not rely on modern computerized
mechanics, after all, who knows how they can be rigged. It's a lot tougher to rig cards
stones and dice. Or so the customers believe. However, for Snow Flower, she's noticed she
does disproportionately worse at any game that relies on modern technology.

As with her powers, Snow Flowers suffers from some discomforting allergies she takes extreme
pains to disguise. It's very shameful to have any kind of weakness, especially ones that
opponents could exploit.

Jimmy No is an experienced bouncer at the Golden Tiger Garden, an adept with the skill to
read Snow Flowers non verbal cues, which proves invaluable in handling matters discretely.
He's comfortable and not overly ambitions, and has actually saved quite a bit towards his
early retirement, which consists of a northern islands hot springs Inn to manage back home.

Butterfly manages the associated establishment which provides shills and entertainments
for the Golden Tiger Garden. While Snow Flower is not at all iterested in that side of
the business, she's supportive enough that Butterfly is aware fo the extra
revenue Snow Flowers ability to convince customers they've been given good service
can generate, and often asks Snow Flower to help resolve issues within the Pearls of Heaven
business. Butterfly knows a lot of what is happening and has connections in diverse
areas.

Jake the Oni, to distnguish him from Jake who is not an Oni, is a cab driver Snow Flower
can rely on to get clients home through any conditions. It's an ugly cab, but it's armored
and the engine is reliable. Jake is a tough young ork who knows his way throughout the
unmapped parts of the area as well. Floating high stakes card games can be run in the
strangest places, and it helps to know someone who can get her there safely.

Burnout used to be a top mage. Now he hangs out as a bitter middle aged man who operates
a small talismongery with the assitance of his former ally spirit. Snow Flower trusts him
enough to be candid about her abilities, and with a touch of sympathetic listening, frequent
purchase of supplies, and the occasionaly advice on the Kami, has gained some trust from
the talismonger. The former ally spirit is a little jealous, but hasn't acted yet, as
Snow Flowers visits seem to soothe the free Spirit's former master. There isn't much of the
original burnout left, consdiering he's got three cyberlimbs, a cyber torso, and a cyber skull
it's realyl just fortunate that he survived.

--What is the character's name?

Hamilton Wade, though he goes by Nuke professionally, a name he was saddled with thanks to his temper.

--What is the characters race, nationality, age, sex, height, weight, hair color, eye color, and skin color/tone, and build?

Hamilton is a male of fairly pure Mohawk descent. Born in Thunder Bay, AMC on June 21st, 2047, he’s in his mid twenties. His original eyes were dark brown and he keeps his replacement cybereyes the same color. His black hair is kept cut short to keep it out of his way.

--Where did your character learn his/her skills?

His brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles taught him to shoot and sneak around. He picked up his hacking and electronics expertise from family friends and his own research.

--What did your character do before becoming a runner?

Before he became a shadowrunner, Ham was a lookout for his family’s smuggling business, watching transactions through a rifle scope and intercepting wireless communications between the other side and their own backup.

--Does your character have any family?

Tons. Ham grew up as one of four brothers, with eleven aunts and uncles and close to thirty first cousins. Most still live in the Thunder Bay area.

--What are your characters dreams/goals/aspirations?

Make enough money to retire.

--What is the characters general appearance?

Aside from the black chrome lower left arm, he looks like an unremarkable, reasonably active twenty-something human male. His clothes are never flashy, nor are they conspicuously in poor condition.

--Why did they choose to be a shadow-runner?

It paid better than smuggling and got him away from his family.

--What is the characters personality?

As the youngest of his swarm of family, he was perpetually the beta in any relationship, which left him shy, and extremely bitter.

Ironically, he likes being in the presence of others who enjoy being the center of attention, since they make it easier for him to go unnoticed.

--What skills does your character bring to this group? What makes them special?

Nuke is a very solid hacker, capable of both long term probing and information gathering and of brute force attacks and electronic warfare. He’s also a very competent sniper when more physical actions are needed. He sets himself apart from the average hacker by being a solid secondary combatant and infiltrator, rather than a liability to be dragged along by the infiltration and combat specialists.

--What are some things your character cannot do?

Complex social interactions are his primary failing, due largely to his own shyness and self confidence issues.

--What does your character hate and why?

Bullies, and anyone who else who victimizes those who can’t defend themselves.

--What does your character love?

Nuke loves living his life without the government intruding. As an extension of this, he has come to particularly enjoy hiding in plain sight, pretending to be another brick in the wall while secretly being an outlaw.

--What does your character respect?

Women. He grew up in a strongly matriarchal family and holds an almost religious reverence for aggressive women.

--How was your character educated?

He went to primary school in Thunder Bay, but dropped out at 15 to join the family business full time.

--What is your characters moral code?

Don’t get caught. Don’t steal from people who trust you.

--Does your character have any political beliefs? Religious?

None in particular. Politics are something he’s never had the time to care about.

--What item(s) does your character treasure?

His great grandfather was a member of the Mohawk Warrior Society during the Oka Standoff, and gave the bandana he wore over his face to Ham when he was four.

--Tell me at least one thing I (as the GM) should know about your character.

Nuke is a convicted felon in the AMC. After a post run exchange went bad, he spent a year in federal prison for possession of stolen property and numerous weapon and cyberware possession violations. When he was released, he fled the AMC to Seattle, borrowed some money from the Yellow Lotus Triad, and chromed himself back up using 2nd hand cyberware.
