Lifestyle positive qualities Concerned Neighbors Easy-going Landlord Privacy Screen 3 - Physical Lifestyle negative qualities Crash Pad Living by Commitee Green plan Network Bottleneck Karma Spent: 24 Karma Total: 25 Starting nuyen (Middle - 4d6 x 100) (4d6=17) (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3055229/) = 1700Y Physical Description: Not so tall for an ork, just something about 7 feets, Nina looks almost innocent. She is wearing her tribal tatoos and colours proudly, but without arrogance. The history teaches that pride will have a fall...and Nina doesnt want anything like that happen to her people. The history teaches those who listen. Those who dont...those are condemned to repeat it. Well there are many of those seconds...and Nina never planned to be an easy prey. She was always living close to the borders. Watching the sprawling Emerald City down to the coast...dawns, when the Sun first disappeared from the view in poluted clouds above the city...and transforms itself in thousands and millions sparkling lights throught nights. When she was a child, she thought that the Sun fell from the sky at the evening and break itself like a fragile ball to myriads of shining shards...but the sun keep waking again and again on the other side of the mountains... The same with the people living there. Her grandfather was wise and respected warrior of the tribe, who danced the dance of war with Thunder Tyee. He told her, that not too many city dwellers are honest, brave and clever enought to be allowed to pass throught the tribal woods. Her parents tought her a lot about them...how to track them, how to hunt them down...or how to stay hidden once there is too many of them. Mother and father...They were both mighty warriors, protecting their people, patrolling the borders, because times were crazy back then and not the month passed without large group of smugglers, desperate squatters or gangers or some hate militias tried to cross the borders and take, what doesnt belong to them. Not that it ever changed. Once on the patrol they run across the Dead...and the Dead take them. It was the year of the new star...year of the Commet. When the new star ffades away, a new life began for Nina. Practicing, traiining every single day, she tried to become strong enought to make her ancestors proud. Her grandfather teaches her a lot of things, and under his wise lead she began to learn a lot not just about how to hurt people, but also how to help them. She signed for molitias when she was 14, and after she broke some arms, noses and egos, she became part of regullar border units as a field medic. Investing every fortune into improving herself, she tried to keep the track with gifted warriors...and slowly loosing herself and her bond to the land. With every new augmentation she travels to the Emerald city...and with every piece of ware, returning back to woods was more and more difficult. Her Grand father was an Elder now, and since she was the only relative to him, she didnt wan`t to cut her ties to him. When Carnation-Seattle ranch was founded, she saw the oportunity. Talking her way to the right people, she managed to become the part of NAN unit moved to the Carnation and settle down to maintain the tribal order in the tribal land, protecting both the NAN borders and the fragile cultural balance in Carnation territory. Well things moved forward, and Ninas contract expired. Her grandfather became too old, and she rather have him located here than back in the wilderness, because this was a land of piece for now, and he deserved peace at the end of his life. Yet, for the continuing residence she need to pay. She quickly realizes that her reserves wont last forever, and she tried to find the place when she can use her skills. It wasnt easy search. She began with helping charity shelters, working as a doctor most of the time. She saw it all. Crash zone, Glow City, even plastic jungles at the north. She worked in Supermall for a short time, but this place is no longer the option for her. Finally, she found the place at Hollywood hospital. Working there for a small amount of money, rest of her time spent outthere in the urban wilderness, providing help to those who need it, she made more contacts, both Ork underground and Metroplex representatives. Grandfather was living in safety now, speaking most of time with his old frins and spirits, he is slowly fading out...but he still have his beautifull smile, the sense of humour, wise advice and the trust in his eyes the she is doing well. Neverthless, resources began to dry, and with only a few months of rent paid, Nina needs to find more lucrative, and maybe also more dangerous work to cover their expenses. Hopefully, some of her friends would have the right idea.. Attributes

It's hard to comment without a background to go with those numbers, or any of the character's 'ware listed (I can tell she has some, because of things like augmented ratings for Attributes, Essence score, and IPs). Not quite optimized for either role (combat, medic), but decent at both.
Is your GM using a house rule for knowledge skills? Normally, in karmagen, you have to spend karma on them.
Maybe the backstory will answer this, but:
The SINner quality seems a bit off, since the Redmond Barrens are a place where the SINless with nowhere else to go end up, and the Body Mall is a dubious clinic right near Glow City, that Tamanous has its hooks into. So what is someone who still has a valid SIN, and marketable skills, doing there?

There's no prying eyes that look into Redmond, generally speaking. Neither Lone Star nor Knight Errant want anything to do with the place. So we have in Redmond a large number of orks who are generally suspicious, but I would imagine they are better disposed towards trusting another ork over a human.
Seattle 2072 describes Hollywood Hospital's administrator as an ex-MCT combat surgeon who got kicked out for "giving aid and comfort to the enemy", or actually showing some iota of human kindness.
I personally will wait for the backstory. :)
Good evening monsieur Operator. So Ive heard the call and Im currious about the rest of it. As My friend here told before, Im experienced field medic...well I have extensive Salish millitary training and history, so Im capable also of some different tasks. Good with the long shots, capable in the hand to hand combat. Ive paid my price for those capabilities...well it doesnt affected my physical or mental balance, just my relationship to the nature..in the spiritual meaning. There are some weaknesses you should be aware also...Im better with moleculas then with electrons...possibly every teenager would be able to hack my comlink...which is now offline because I got spammed too much on my way here.
In the urban terrain situations I prefere to use my close combat abilities, but yes, Im capable of using smal firearsm, and also I`m equiped for this. About the urban social situations...well, Im working in Redmond Hollywood hospital most of my time, so Im acknowledged with many results of this kind of "Social situations". Im not a skilled negotiator, well Im able to find my way around, even get some more informations using contacts i have in the city.
Now, the most difficult question...
As Im trained Salish warrior, it is a question of my personal honour not to take action against civilian population. Corporate targets are the option, only in the case there is strong lead that they are abusing their power to commit the crime. Criminal syndicates, gangs, mercs...those are possible targets of oportunity, if assigned, I prefere to use clear, precise hit, minimizing possibility of collateral damage.
Generally, you could say that I have no problem with hurting people who hurt people.
Good.Now, If you are done questioning, let me ask something about you, the team, and the work we are up to.
First, you seem to be surprisingly liberal about metas. Not too much Japanese would have a drink at one table with two orkish women. Understand me. I dont want to be an expendable asset on some supremacist`s list of resources.
Im glad to hear that.I know Seattle just across the borders, being in the civilized parts of the city only for a few times only. Part of the team that was provided by the council to provide field hospital when Renraku incident occurs for example. Strange, most time Ive been here Ive spent with hands painted red by human blood. I hope that our job would not be the case...
So, Id better return to Redmont and get my shift done. Enjoy your ale, Ill see you tomorrow. I suppose I should came fully equiped, we will go for the job right after the meeting, right?
Calm down, chère amie. I am a field chirurg. Working with my hands in someones viscera with lead flying around my head. It takes more than a few biggots to make me mad.
Operator>> Well, I cant say I miss the old days that much. We have been brothers and sisters in arms, that is the fact, well on the other side that meant Ive seen the worst shit metahuman is able to do...and Ive almost lost my soul when fighting this...now there is so much hardware in myself that sometimes I feel completely disconnected from happiness of living. It`s an insane feeling, Op. I only hope my wise elder would stay alive long enought for me to gain enought money to remove that trash from my body and heal my soul once again...
A man was walking in the jungle when he heard a sound behind him, he turned and there sat a tiger. Fearing for his life he ran and the tiger chased him. Ahead of him he saw the edge of the trees and when he crossed out of the jungle he found himself on the edge of a cliff. Frantically he climbed down the side and as he looked up he saw the tiger staring down at him. He continued to climb but as he glanced to the ground below he saw another tiger emerge from the jungle. A tiger above and a tiger below, the man rested on a branch jutting out from the side of the cliff. The branch was sagging and starting to creak with a noise he knew ment he was not long for this world. As he sat there waiting he saw two mice, one black and one white scurry into a hole, looking from wince they came he saw a single strawberry hanging from the branch. He reached out and took the berry. As the tigers waited he took a bite and realized how sweet it was.
You may leave now, but before you go, know that you already knew the answer to your question. It is unfortunate that there are no strawberries for you.
A sign of your intention? What the dreck do you think is going on here? Shotozumi-san gets a call that some lowlifes are in his daughters home, after she disappears and one of his favored men, who was in line to marry her and take over the family, is dead. He comes here wondering what you are doing here and you tell him to basically slot it because you don't think he is who he says he is, when he asks you politely to explain yourself. Shotozumi-san does not need to prove his identity, you need to prove your intentions so he doesn't kill you. That's how it works not the other way around. You tell him that your loyalty lies with that shark Kanaga, well subtlety and patience nothing, your boss will be taken care of soon enough and like I said you would be dead right now if it wasn't for that man in there staying our hands. You better find her and find her soon because we've got a date in the future you and I, and I am going to take great personal pride to make that appointment.
