Ashi a.k.a. Yoshi Hatoro
Physical Adept
(Asian, Human, Male, Mid 20’s, 5’ 2”, 146 lbs.)
Description:
Framed in well-trimmed shoulder length black hair, Yoshi’s mild features draw you to his eyes, dark and somehow always aware. One might think he is oddly strong in demeanor for a human just cresting five feet and still in his mid twenties. His generally plain, straight cut clothes drape, but do not quite hide his gymnasts body.
Specialties:
Whips, Unarmed combat, Athletic, Stealthy, Degrees in Computers & Electronics, Security tactics and procedures.
Languages:
Fluent in English and Japanese, and understands a tad of Sperenthial.
Bang a.k.a. John Win
Full Hermetic Mage
(Asian, Human, Male, Late 20’s, 5’ 10”, 120 lbs.)
Distinguishing features: Eyes betray his Asian heritage.
Description:
John Win, Bang to his friends, is broke. He always seems broke at least. Even after being paid for a run, he never seems to have any money and can’t ever seem to move out of his rundown apartment in the slums.
John is of average height and slight of build: a fairly quiet man of Asian heritage. In his late twenties, John has his black hair cut very short in a military fashion and his brown eyes always seem sad. About town he wears non-descript clothes that have seen better days with a threadbare Securetech jacket providing protection. As with his clothes, the jacket looks the worse for wear. On missions however, he often swaps his clothes and armored jacket for a banged-up but still very functional suit of light security armor and helmet.
In confrontations, John often stands behind larger members of the group, almost as if for protection, but those of you who have seen him in action, know that this is not the case, as his spells are quite deadly and he never hesitates to use them.
John is a romantic who has some secret past that makes him sad. The only thing that seems to liven his mood is old “Western movies” and runs against Japanese megacorps. He often speaks out against the corps but seems to have a soft spot for Yamatetsu.
Specialties:
Conjuring, Sorcery, general knowledge of corporate politics, finance, magic and a nice selection of high level spells.
Languages:
Fluent in English and Japanese.
Chain a.k.a. Chad Shada
Street Sam
(Caucasian, Elven, Male, Early 20’s, 6’ 2”, 165 lbs.)
Distinguishing features: Large ears even for an elf, extensive chain tattoos on both arms, and meter long cyber-tail hanging off his rear.
Description:
Chad Shada, more commonly known as Chain, is an elf of medium height and build. He possesses the standard elf “good looks”; narrow face, slightly slanted eyes, and sharp chin. His hair is black and normally worn shaved close to the scalp. He has light gray eyes and pale skin with arms wrapped in “chain” tattoos. He prefers dark or black clothes and commonly wears a long coat to help cover the meter long cyber-tail that hangs from his spine. Normally Chain is quite and thoughtful, but a bit of an adrenaline junkie which explains his love of bike racing. He’s always up for a challenge, but possesses the common sense to assess a situation first. When angered he radiates an aura of quite menace and lethality. As a professional runner he fills the dual roll of security and muscle. He is a capable combat expert who specializes in stealth attacks and acrobatics. His weapons of choice are the Ares Viper Slivergun and monofilament whip.
Specialties:
Athletics, Edged weapons, Pistols, Sub-machine guns, Mono whips, Security, Maglocks, Unarmed Combat, Bikes, Art sculptures.
Languages:
Fluent in English and speaks a fair amount of Sperenthial.
Hellion
Street Sam
(Asian mix, Elven, Male, Early 30’s, 6’ 4”, 175 lbs.)
Description:
Hellion appears to be a well-built elf in his early to mid thirties. His long black hair is pulled back into a neat ponytail that hangs down to the middle of his back. His eyes are gray, and seem to always be sizing someone up for a knife in the back. He has a perpetual sneer that implies an arrogance that even other elves find a bit much. He wears a suit and trench coat, all white, even the holsters for his guns and the scabbard for his katana are a matching white.
Specialties:
Pistols, Edged weapons, Thrown weapons, Unarmed combat, Stealthy, Criminal organizations, Smuggling routes, Yakuza politics and a general knowledge on how to use just about any gun.
Languages:
Speaks English, Japanese, Chinese, and Sperenthial.
Monk a.k.a. Adrian Corso
Mercenary/Decker
(Italian, Human, Male, Mid 20’s, 5’ 10”, 245 lbs.)
Distinguishing features: White starburst birthmark in center of chest.
Description:
Adrian just turned 35, though he doesn’t look a day over 24, and he loves the adrenaline filled life in the sprawl. He is the perfect height and weight, of course, as Adonis is incapable of not being perfect. He is well dressed in the finest clothes and walks with an air of knowledge in his godlike stature.
But when the shadows fall, he morphs. Was his hair long or short… was it black or blonde. Did he have green eyes or yellow? When the run is on, the appearance changes to meet the need. He certainly complains a lot about dressing like a bum though. Standard run clothes are form fitting body armor, with securetech clothes of the appropriate quality to the persona and when possible a secure long coat.
Weapons of choice… depends on the run or fight. Lefty and Righty are mighty mighty. But we all know that the mono-edged katana is a staple of the toolbox. As are the matched set of Savalette Guardians. And for the wet work, when one shot has to count, accept no substitute – Barrett 121.
Specialties:
Unarmed combat, Stealthy, Pistols, Rifles, Computers, Electronics, Lone Star tactics, Police/Security procedures, and Data havens.
Languages:
Fluent in Italian, and can speak English, Japanese and a tad of Sperenthial.
Tank a.k.a. Jason Parish
Rigger/Decker
(German, Human, Male, Mid 20’s, 6’ 4”, 250 lbs.)
Distinguishing features: Completely hairless with a white skull tattoo covering his face, with completely black cyber-eyes.
Description:
Tank, as he is known to most, is a quiet, introverted individual who doesn’t talk much. His close friends know him also as Jason Chapel, but he prefers to go by Tank. He is a tall man, built like a football player, with dark tan skin and completely hairless. His eyes are a solid black, the kind of solidness only found through cyber enhancements. Though the baldhead and large physique tug on memories of an old retro TV commercial, the lack of a smile just says he isn’t the same guy. Smiles are saved for extremely happy events (which never happen) or when he is about to rip someone’s head off. The only time he is prone to speaking in more than short phrases, is when rambling about some new chrome he made or NewTek.
A bit of a paranoid, he is constantly looking around, surveying the areas around him. His wardrobe is dark, functional, and meticulous. Nothing overly flashy, always wearing a SecureTech or other brand of armored trench coat. He keeps all his equipment and possessions in top order, nearly in a constant state of preparedness. Tank likes to keep with the most current technology, almost constantly saving up for some tek.
In combat he has no problem holding his own, fighting where the fight is the toughest. Typically he is too busy hacking and trying to save the groups’ collective ass, getting past the security.
Specialties:
Computers, Electronics, Gunnery, Bikes, Cars, Rotorcraft, Corporate Security, Data havens, Jackpoint locations, UCAS military policies and procedures, and general Matrix knowledge.
Languages:
Fluent in English military jargon and Netspeak, and can also speak German and Japanese.
Tortuga
Rigger
(Hispanic, Human, Male, Late 40’s, 5’ 10”, 307 lbs.)
Distinguishing features: Road-rash scars on left side of face with little possible facial hair growing past the edge of the mouth.
Description:
In his late forties, Tortuga has certainly not gained the distinguished looks that come with age. He has a bad scar across the left side of his face, making a full beard impossible for him to grow. He has a goatee, but not a very good one. He is not yet graying, but he is balding. His long black hair has spit ends and is damaged, but if he just got a decent haircut it wouldn't be so bad.
This coupled with the fact that he almost never wears anything but blue jeans, a white T-shirt and a beat up leather jacket, makes quite the fashion statement. The only obvious pieces of cyberware are the datajack and the induction pad on his right hand.
He goes by Tortuga (this means turtle in Spanish). When asked, his real name is Juan Vega, but he doesn't really want to be called that. He often speaks about his "baby", the "sweet ride" he wants to build (if asked he will gladly expand on the subject). He is always planning a trip to "Aztechland" as he calls it, when asked he says, "I'm going to see my baby." He is sometimes gone for up to a week on these trips. He is always cash poor, and drinks a lot of cheap beer.
He doesn't always sleep at the "Section 8" complex, but he does have a place nearby. When at the complex he can be found either in his room, or in one of the two shops. He doesn't always feel comfortable in posh social situations, but is over all a jovial guy, and can make due. He will sit down and watch Vids with someone, but he is not likely to do so on his own. If you have had a vehicle in need of repair, he would have volunteered his assistance, and if you wanted him to he would do them for you with no problem. He would have tried to teach you what was wrong and how to fix it, if you were interested. You have never seen him on a motorcycle, but he often assists Chain with his motorcycle repairs.
Overall, Tortuga is an intelligent individual. He has very good reflexes for a fat man, but he doesn't like to run or exercise in any way (other than lifting the beer can). He is a wicked slick driver and an excellent mechanic.
Specialties:
Cars, Fixed wing aircrafts, Gunnery, Hovercrafts, Rotorcrafts, North American smuggling routes, Engineering, Combustion engines and general car knowledge.
Languages:
Fluent in Spanish and English.
Wandering Star
Moon Shaman
(Asian mix, Human, Female, Mid 20’s, 5’ 8”, 130 lbs.)
Distinguishing features: Star shaped birthmark above her left breast.
Description:
Wandering Star is tall and slender. Her every movement is with fluid grace. Her slightly slanted pale gray eyes twinkle in the evening light and a small smile plays on her full pink lips as she gazes longingly at the starlit sky. Her hair is strange however in its odd color- platinum blond on the crown of her intricately plaited with ebony strands on the lower half of her head. Yet somehow fitting for this porcelain skinned woman, a gentle reminder of the starlit sky she stares at tirelessly. Her attire is elegant in its simplicity - a midnight blue fitted gown of an old Slavic design gently frames her lithe body. Her only adornment is a delicate platinum chain, a star shaped charm crusted with diamonds dangling on its end.
Specialties:
Sorcery, Conjuring, Aura reading, Stealthy, Astrology, general knowledge of things related to magic, and vast array of useful non-combative spells.
Languages:
Speaks English, Japanese, Russian, and a tad of Sperenthial.
