History: She was born 41 years ago as nobody. Your regular administrative office worker with no special hobbies, mundane interests, naive ignorance about dangers of city live and predatory attitude of people you trust the most. She has relatively solid personal capital. Had no debts, steady employment, and had apartment unit in direct personal ownership. No kids, no partner.
3 years ago she fell in love with idea to have her mind and personality recorded and stored in a security deposits. As advertised your mind was suppose to serve as a part of living history data-collection and archival entry for future generations. Similar to reproduction and food banks. This practise wasn´t particularly new one, but was only recently introduce into public with myriads of small offices opening every hour to meet exploding market demands.
Practice popular and guaranteed by everyone, and yet... she became a victim of elaborated identity theft, together with other unlucky personas sighing for Soul Diary inc. Managed by bankrupting crime organisation they decided to milk lacking funds out of people of stable background and no family ties. Instead of promised "soul" copy your mind was placed to memory unit and ditched away while your body with all your bio passes were used as temporary vessel for Soul Diary associates. Purpose was simple, to easily obtain large sum of money with little effort and maximum efficiency. After the operation they simply destroyed unwanted biological shells. Several missing person reports later, few months after she disappeared, police finally started with proper investigation. They raided former Soul Diary inc. labs and retrieved majority of memory units marked with nothing more than serial numbers. Her memory bank was not there as it was already in use. She found herself in a body of cybernetically enhanced body of young girl. In a city she didn´t recognize and on planet she didn´t know.
It´s been 2,5 years now. And very quickly she understood that nobody believes in crazy stories of a slum-scum child.
