Fight the urge. Don't give in. Stay human. [TEASER]

I'm definitely interested... Dark plots done well are rather hard to come by.

Shadowrun: The Big Easy

So, I was looking at an archetype that isn't in the list; the Face, social specialist and manipulator. Would I be able to build that or just roll those abilities into something else?

The Consortium

Could you perhaps be in need of a grizzled, old Dwarf quartermaster?

@Skwint

I'm already looking forward to the interactions between my grizzled orc cook and your grizzled dwarf.

Dark Dagger

Name: Callista Felmir
Sex: Female
Age: 36
Race: Half-elf

History:
Callista was born in an elven enclave of Ironkeep, to an elven father and human mother. Her parents are quiet folk that live happily as simple grocers, but Callista was always easily bored and spent her early life with the local gang of troublemakers, a bunch that called themselves the Red Ravens. They mainly busied themselves with petty theft and vandalism, but as they grew older they began aiming higher, pushing the boundaries with bigger thefts and the occasional mugging.

Callista herself had little taste for violence, preferring to rely on her skill and wit; it was for that reason that she is the only member of their group that avoided imprisonment or worse. Instead, she put her skills to work as a con artist and cat burglar, managing to line her pockets with her victims none the wiser until it was too late.

When the King's Bounty was announced, Callista felt a thrill run through her. Here was a job that would test anyone, and it was perfectly legal! Even better, it would pit her against the thief who'd managed the most impressive heist she'd ever heard of. If she could outmatch them... Well, now it was a matter of pride. She gathered her tools, secreted them away in her outfit, and strode confidently through the castle gates.

Other: Callista is the kind of thief that values charisma slightly more than skill. If there's a chance to talk her way past an obstacle, that's where she shines.

What first impression do you make? "Don't screw with me. Ain't hard to make that impression when you're the biggest in the room and seen more fightin' than all of 'em put together."

What are you like in a high stress situation? "I am the high-stress situation. Can't remember last time somethin' managed to rattle me."

What are your best and worst qualities? "Been around the block, learned the hard lessons. Don't mind teaching 'em, but I got no patience if someone's too dense to listen. Really, ain't got a lot of patience to start with."

What is something about yourself that you would never admit to anyone? "That's the dumbest question I ever heard. The hell makes you think I'd just tell ya that?" (Part of me... misses the fighting. There's nothing like the thrill of combat, even when it costs... everything.)

What are your dreams? "Settle down without settlin' down. Seen too much fighting, but I also ain't about to sit on my ass til I kick it. Figured I'd keep on the move, maybe see some things I ain't yet."

How do you want to be seen by others? "Someone who gets her job done." (Someone they can rely on. No matter what.)

How do you see yourself? "Someone who gets her job done." (Someone who tries.)

Do you tend to make snap judgements, or stop and think about things? "Go by instinct, usually. My mind runs off if I try'n think too hard on something."

What haunts you? "I been fightin' all my life. What doesn't haunt me?" (That last rebellion. The one we lost... We lost so many lives.)

What is your philosophy on life? "Just take care of you and yours. Ain't no reason to get into everyone else's lives."

ℍ𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕪:

Morag grew up poor on a mining moon in the Tartan System, a place where United Planets law meant little and where workers were treated as disposable resources by the corporate-industrial Coalition that administrated the area. Both her parents worked to support her until they died from the harsh conditions. Left alone as a teen, she took to the streets and became involved with an underground movement that planned to rebel against the corrupt government that had such power over them. Not long after she joined the cause, a labor dispute escalated into protests, then riots, and then a bloody uprising.

The war she found herself in was horrifyingly brutal, and Morag embraced that brutality as a way of life. She became admired among the rebels for her dedication to the cause, and feared by the mercenaries that she fought. She earned the moniker "The Butcher of Sun Valley" after a particularly deadly rout, where rebel forces under her command managed to trap a Coalition battalion in a ruined area and slaughtered the entire force.

After years of fighting, the rebels were able to declare victory. For Morag, however, victory meant that she no longer had a cause to fight for, no purpose to strive toward. Everything she'd wanted had come true, and it just felt hollow. She tried to make a life for herself in the following years, but she couldn't feel satisfied without something to fight for, and eventually left her home when the planet it orbited became embroiled in its own war of independence.

She continued to fight her way through the system, traveling from one conflict to the next, always joining the side of the oppressed and gaining a fearsome reputation. Eventually, though, she began to tire. She couldn't deny she was getting older, and seeing the same fight play out again and again wore on her soul. When one lunar rebellion was crushed despite her best effort, the Butcher disappeared.

Now, after staying off the radar for three years, she surfaces on Iyananor, seeking a way to build herself a new life.

Interested... I can see playing a thief to catch a thief. I take it from the overall tone that this is something of a dark fantasy setting?

I'm intrigued... Thinking of something along the lines of a grizzled half-orc soldier-turned-cook.
