This Nadeshiko MK-4 drone originally belonged to an eccentric saiko-komon of the Yamaguchi-rengo in Federal District of Columbia who had a thing for former Vice President Daviar. Used as part bodyguard, part mistress, the drone's pilot surprised the saiko-komon when it emerged as a full-fledged AI a couple years ago. Making a deal with the Yamaguchi-rengo, Chikage was allowed to take out a loan from the rengo in order to buy the drone from the saito-komon.

Riverside Homes is a housing complex within sight (barely) of the Snoqualmie River in the Verge area of the Redmond Barrens. All told, it is actually one of the nicer areas of Redmond. Crime, for instance, isn't nearly as bad as it is in other areas of the district. Security consists of plenty of cameras, mechanical and electric locks (which are all serviced regularly), and metahuman patrols.
Chikage's house is a nice 100 square meter affair with a small yard in the front and a garage attached to the house. What food and drink she keeps in the house is of the nonperishable kind, naturally, with a soy dispenser as well, for those rare times when she has company, but they are good quality all the same. The appliances all work, and her closet is filled with midpriced clothes bought new, or sale items from Zoe or Vashon Island. Comfort-wise, Chikage's home is tastefully decorated, and includes a well made furniture, even though it is mass-produced. A set of drones tends to the housework, and the AR paint on the walls is still fresh. She has a fine collection of trid shows and movies for her entertainment system, and is a regular at Tux's virtual nightclub.
Glow City "Penthouse"
Comforts - Low (2 LP)
Entertainment - Low (2 LP)
Necessities - Middle (3 LP)
Neighborhood - Street (0 LP)
Security - High (4 LP)
Qualities
Escape Tunnel (3 LP) - Her 'penthouse' has a private elevator that leads to an old parking garage
Dug a Hole (2 LP) - Search time of every extended test to find you raised by one level.
Well Made (1 LP) - The place is comfortable enough year round.
Haunted (-4 LP) - Being in the middle of Glow City, sometimes toxic critters and other nasties may show up.
No Privacy (Astral) (-3 LP) - Spying on this place via the astral is child's play.
Worse Neighbors (-1 LP) - A den of ghouls live in the basement, and have the run of the building.
Trigger-happy Landlord (-1 LP) - The landlord is always quick to demand payment.
No Privacy (Physical) (-3 LP) - Due to being one of the more visible buildings in the area, spying on the 'penthouse' is fairly easy.
Total: 5 LP (500 nuyen/month)
All right, so it isn't actually a 'penthouse' in the normal sense, but considering the area (Glow City), having the top floor of a small apartment building is as close as the neighborhood gets. Fortunately, drones are not as affected by radiation as, say, metahumans, which makes this area a fairly good place for a secondary residence. Security is no less stringent than it is at her primary residence, the only difference being that instead of being patrolled by Yakuza, the building is patrolled by ghouls (not all of them feral).
There's little in the way of comfort here. Basic furniture, and a single, older-model drone to do the housework, and cheap AR paint on the walls. Entertainment consists primarily of cheap trid and music, but at least it is better than nothing. The apartment covers 100 square meters, and has a nice patio with a view of the toxic zone. Non-perishable food and bottled water are the norm for when guests are over, and her closet contains similar clothes to her normal residence.
Total Lifestyle Cost: 5500 nuyen/month (1 month paid)

Contacts (28 free Karma, 8 Karma paid)
Yamato (3C/3L) - Fixer, Yakuza
Yamato is a kobun in the Kanada-gumi in Redmond. While his jobs are primarily for the Yakuza, he does keep an ear out for other jobs as well.
Rose (3C/3L) - Arms Dealer
Rose (along with her Steel Lynx "Guns") is one of the new arms dealers who set up shop in Redmond just recently. She stays away from Ares products, especially after the whole 'Excalibur' thing burned a couple contacts she had (one quite literally, since it blew up in his hands).
Kylie Lowe (3C/3L) - Gang Lieutenant
Kylie is a lieutenant in the Desolation Angels. She travels widely through North America, and in addition to her duties as a gang leader, she seems quite knowledgeable about insect spirit activity in the region. She SURGEd recently after exposure to a manastorm, developing compound eyes, like those of a preying mantis.
