Contacts
Miklos Fehrer, Troll, Wuxing Dockworker 6/2
He was born twice, the first of them 37 years ago in a small town in Poland, where he was continually rejected by metahumans traits; the second a couple of years ago, when several members of Policlub Humanis, harried him when leaving his work place at Wuxing Inc. docks.
Fortunately, Tenzin had just landed in Seattle, and wandered lost for the docks, when he heard the noise of the scuffle between Miklos and Humanis. Approached, and asked them to leave him in peace. The Humanis, seeing the Tenzin elven condition, thought they would have a double catch that evening. Three minutes later, two of them lying on the ground with several broken limbs, while the rest fled in haste.
Miklos, grateful, showed Tenzin the most important spots in the city and how to get around it. He drove him to the motel where he lives, in the International District, and helps the elf with everything in his hand, eternally grateful for having saved his life.
Vitaly Zhirkhov, Dwarf, Street Vendor 4/4
When Tenzin left Hong Kong, his liutenants in Tolo Vory gave him a contact in Seattle, who was responsible for placing on the streets of illegal material sent from Seattle Pacific. Tenzin and Vitaly have worked together assiduously since then, and the dwarf has got some minor runs for Tenzin,
at service of local Russian mafia groups, the "Vory v Zakone", which rules illegal inmigrants traffic, military hardware smuggling and extorsion businesses in Seattle. Working together, they have built relatively strong bonds of trust each other, and Vitaly has become Tenzin's usual provider of all types of
materials needed for the street, both legal and illegal: weapons, perception and infiltration gear, cyber...

Background
[ Spoiler ]
Metahuman Tenzin Dhargey is a distinctly Asian features elf. It is a little higher than normal between the elf population, reaching almost two meters. However, it is not too big, but has a slim athletic nature. His eyes are coal black, like his hair, which is usually short, almost shaved. His face is sharp, like its sleek nose. Small mouth and thin lips, his most distinctive facial features are its pointed ears, which clearly show metahuman nature. The eyes are deeply torn, ranging widely over the sunken cheeks.
The earliest memories of her childhood kept by Tenzin belong to the Buddhist monastery located in the small town of Jiuzhu, situated between Lake Manasarovar and Rakshastal, in southwestern Tibet near the Indian border. He spent his early life, running and playing within the walls at the foot of the Himalayas.
Buddhist monks of the monastery were in charge of their education and seeing some incredible physical skills (High Agility, Lightning Reflexes) in the young Tenzin, also addressed his introduction to physical training. Tzen-Hui Yan was appointed mentor of the young, and under his tutelage, he began to show amazing progress in such a young age.
When Tenzin reached the age of twelve, Tzen-Hui revealed something that has marked his life since then: he had been found, at the gates of the monastery, a pleasant June morning, a group of monks who went to fish to the nearby lakes, despite making many inquiries in Jiuzhu itself and in nearby towns, it never turned out the origin of the baby, or who his parents ("Lost loved one" negative quality).
Seeing the tremendous progress that his disciple was getting every day, both in the spiritual realm as in the physical realm, Tzen-Hui decided to send the Buddhist Monastery of Mount Kailash, the sacred mountain of the Buddhist tradition. The monastery is one of the most important of all the Tibetan Buddhist tradition and is home to Nyimabumo, the "Daughter of the Sun", the State Oracle of Tibet. There are met the most outstanding sons of the Tibetan nation, to be trained in the sciences, arts and wrestling, and be placed at the service of the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan people.
There the holy brothers would judge their capabilities, and decide the role it could play Tenzin to serve as best as possible to tradition.
The Mount Kailash Buddhist brothers surprised by Tenzin skills, decided to continue their education and training under his own tutelage. The boy got up early to work at nearby mines, where all manner of ore mined and materials suitable for the manufacture of chemicals, which are abundant in the foothills of the Himalayas. Then spent much of the day to exercise physically and dominating Kung-Fu technics, both unarmed and with edged weapons (Unarmed Combat Skill, Martial Arts Positive Quality, Blades Skill). The remaining hours were devoted to the Buddhist tantras, meditation and the study of chemical processes in the monastery used to produce multiple components with the materials extracted from the bowels of the mountain (Chemistry Skill).
Soon, Tenzin took his place as one of the most advanced disciples in the monastery since the age of 18, took his vows as a Buddhist monk.
When the Oracle predicted that the next incarnation of the Dalai Lama would be found outside the Tibetan border, a committee of wise men in the monastery was responsible for selecting the most qualified among the young monks to be sent to the capital Lhasa, and pass part of the Lotus Throne sect, whose challenge would be to look to the next Lama across the globe.
In Lhasa, and under the direct orders of Jangbu Tak-Shin, the Tibetan Prime Minister in the absence of the Dalai Lama, met the best disciples of the Tibetan tradition. In 2064, they were sent outside Tibet through the Maya Cloud, under the protection of one of the Five Seals, to fulfill the mission entrusted to them.
Tenzin's fate, along with other monks of the sect, was Hong Kong. There they settled in a Buddhist monastery in the center of the city as mere initiates, to go unnoticed and begin research on the identity of the 16th Dalai Lama. During 6 years, Tenzin and his Lotus Throne Sect fellows, toured the metroplex in search of some sign, some clue, but no luck.
These multiple movements, despite the caution and the expertise of Tenzin and other monks, raised the interest of some local mafia groups, integrated into the structure of the Triads (Negative Quality, Enemy). These groups managed to find the origin of Tibetan monks, and one night attacked the monastery, hoping to find there one of the Five Seals, opened their way through the Maya Cloud into Tibet.
It was a massacre. Of the 33 members of the monastery, 28 died that night at the hands of the Triad, only five managed to escape with his life: Tenzin and his Lotus Throne fellows, thanks to their incredible fighting abilities.
Unable to prove his true identity in the rest of the metroplex Buddhist monasteries, were stranded in Hong Kong, and harassed by the mafia who had assaulted the monastery, and they knew they had escaped alive.
To survive, they decided to part ways and take a trip to different parts of the world, seeking to fulfill the mission entrusted to find the new Lama. Tenzin sought refuge among the Tolo Vory, an underworld group with Russian origin, operating prostitution basically in Hong Kong. There he would be away from the Triad. He put his skills to serve the organization, which emerged rapidly as an outstanding wrestler and became a teacher of small arms fire (Pistol Skill), which had hitherto been strangers.
Within the Tolo Vory, Tenzin began to hear talk of a metroplex located on the west coast of North America, call Seattle, full of life, of people from all over the planet ...
Desiring to leave Hong Kong, where the search Lama had not produced positive results, and seeing in that city a good opportunity, decided to seek a loan to the local Tolo Vory leaders, to put Seattle ahead to begin a new stage of life there.
With that money, he purchased passage to Seattle aboard a Wuxing Worldwide Shipping boat, and got ready to cross the Pacific.
To be continued...
