Elysia Bermine | 23 | Species: Human
A telling quote


Alias:

Misfortune


Appearance:

Young, slight, and arguably pretty, though few would dare say so to Elysia, as her very stance indicates that associating with her would be asking for trouble. She makes no effort to hide the tattoos on her left arm, a remnant of her involvement with the Crimson Riders; however, she has no desire to speak of those times. Perhaps her most distinctive feature is her eyepatch, an antique rarely seen in a world filled with cyberware. Clothes-wise, she tends to wear muted browns and greys, though she’ll rarely be without her armored jacket, or at least, an armored vest.


Background:

Elysia was born in Chicago to Fay and Jaeger Bermine before the city was widely known as “Bug City”. In 2058, the blockade on the Containment Zone was finally lifted, giving the world a glimpse at the lawlessness and terror that would eventually consume Chicago. Her mother was one of the early casualties as the gang lords of inner Chicago sought to gain influence. Fearing for their safety, her father joined the Humanis State. As he was a skilled mechanic, they were accepted without hassle.

The loss of Fay affected Jaeger greatly and he became withdrawn, turning to his work for solace. As formal schooling all but disappeared in the wake of the chaos, Elysia grew up wild, left mostly to fend for herself. She learned to fire a pistol at a young age for self-defense and spent most days on the street. As such, it wasn’t particularly surprising that she joined the Crimson Riders, a gang associated with the Human Brigade.

Though she was initially patronized due to her young age, she slowly earned respect for her aptitude with a pistol and her calm demeanor in tough situations. After a vicious clash with the Nko-Ga, Elysia was “promoted” and given a sniper rifle, expected to replace their former sniper, one of the many who had fallen in the battle.

Life was relatively peaceful for the next several years.Though border skirmishes were common, things never escalated beyond that. The major powers in the area had established an unspoken, uneasy truce, though no one expected it to hold. Nonetheless, Elysia grew complacent. One day, she was ambushed by a rival gang and left for dead.

As her life faded away from her, she saw a vision of the Wise Warrior and felt her wounds healing. Though she was still heavily wounded she grabbed her few possessions and left Chicago, for she was well-aware of the Human Brigade’s anti-magic stance. Since then, Elysia has spent the last four years drifting from city to city, offering her skills as a shadowrunner.


Skills:

Despite her late awakening, Elysia has a knack for magic and her abilities have improved rapidly. Her main strength lies in enchanting, through the expensive reagents and the time consuming process have prevented extensive practice. Still, given time, she is able to create simple potions and enchantments. In terms of spells, she specializes in detection and health.

Though her education is lacking, she has a practical wisdom and a sixth sense for danger, which, along with her skill with both sniper rifle and pistol, have kept her alive on the streets through the years.

Finally, Elysia has a basic understanding of mechanics. Growing up, her home was basically her father's workshop and she naturally learned some skills from watching her father. A dedicated rigger would call her designs crude and hackish, but in a pinch, it is better than nothing.


Equipment:

Ares Desert Strike
Ruger Super Warhawk
Armor Jacket
Enchanting Focus (necklace)
Alchemy Kit
Credstick
Fake SIN for “Leyla Seger”


General Nonsense:

If asked about her eyepatch, Elysia will claims that she keeps it as a reminder of her past negligence. While partially true, the main reason she has not gotten cybereye replacements is that she is inherently uncomfortable with the idea of installing cyberware - not that she'd admit this.

I hope you are all still with us here. But it is about time to get this show on the road! Intro post is now up and running.

Sweet and simple at the start as we have our little prologue here. Group, is meeting up for the first time with each other to get a nice little briefing from the Johnson's contact.

Don't worry the action will start up soon after though as right after the briefing, we will be transitioning immediately into the night of the heist where things are going to really kick off!

EDIT almost forgot sorry!

@Mercenary Lord
If you can finish up your CS, I'd still love to have you, but we might just have to brainstorm a way to get you into the action if you come in later rather than sooner. No pressure though!

The posts seem extremely detailed. I've never actually played Shadow run, and don't know if I can write such a detailed post.

@Tessaract It moves things, which is always good. Characters will probably have to legwork and research on the target and facility. Time to play tourist and start acquiring run equipment. Do they have more in PDA briefing material?
