EDIT: forgot to add the names of the extra contacts I had (the ones not taken from the list) and how she met them.
EDIT2: added starting nuyen: if I round the lifestyle LP it goes to low (although that's luxury when compared to Lagos), so I've used that.

Physical Description: Najateh isn’t as heavy-set as most other Orcs and in fact is quite good looking. Her weight is also mostly muscle, due to her work. As she’s often outside, she doesn’t waste much time with make-up and wears her hair in a simple ponytail under a Indiana Jones style Fedora hat. But if she puts her mind to it, she can look absolutely stunning.

background
Najateh was born as a girl in the Yoruba tribe in Lagos, which meant she wouldn’t have many chances in life. Her first years were like every Lagotian, growing up in poverty trying to survive. Her life was turned upside down when she turned five. As the family had more and more problems to survive, they decided to sell her to a Cherubium (she was the best looking of the three girls). But when they wanted to get her there, she tried to get away and suddenly she was moving a lot quicker then she should be able to. A local priest was called in and he told that she was awakened.
That was even worse for a traditional Yoruba family, to have an awakened daughter. But it also meant more money, as now they could sell her to the corporations. A transaction later she was in the possession of Ares Africa. She was brought to the city of Sekondi, where Ares had a training facility for girls like her (she was hardly the only one). As an Orc she matured quicker than the other girls and by the age of 12 she started to master the more advanced classes. Between her ability to quickly master languages and her adept powers, she was being trained to be a hunting guide and protector for groups hunting telesma in the rain forest. As she could astrally perceive, she also received some training to combat spirits protecting the places the Ares people wanted to go to and with her good looks and charming personality she could also get the people out of the way (if that didn’t help, Ares could summon heavy firepower to do the trick standby). During this period she was bitten or stung a couple of times and she became allergic to ekyelebenle and bee venom. One of these teams she guided was lead by Jean O’Grady, a mage also looking for telesma. She would rekindle the relationship later in Seattle, where O’Grady ran a talismonger shop at that time.
In 2068, she was transferred from Africa to Chicago, to help the Ares teams there with some problems with awakened critters. It was quite a change for the 15 year old girl, as she was used to the African climate, and Chicago is quite a bit colder, especially in the fall. But she adapted quickly and together with some runner teams and a firewatch team they went in multiple times to search for Royal jelly. It wasn’t easy as close to the containment zone and the mana ebbs her powers would also weaken. During one of these run near the end of 2071 they were attacked by one of the many gangs in the area. Two shadowrun teams and a firewatch team pack a heavy punch and the battle was quite fierce, with many casualties on both sides. Najateh was shot early in the engagement and left for dead as both groups withdrew.
A metahuman gang, the Orc and Troll Underground (OTU) found her and brought her back to their base. During the following months she was nursed back to health and as thanks she helped the gang out on several errands and with her powers and good looks, she managed to get them some things they wouldn’t have gotten otherwise. But she was starting to get fed up with Chicago, having seen enough of the same during her youth in Lagos, and soon it was time to move on. While they can’t communicate (communications into Chicago are very difficult) she still considers them good friends. She managed to get her hands on a pickup truck and moved overland to Seattle, doing some odd jobs left and right, like crossing some borders without the guards being any wiser. Arriving in Seattle, she sought contact with Jean O’Grady, who put her in contact with people who could get her some work, like Ready Eddy and someone who could fix her weapons. When she was wounded, she also found a shaman to heal her through O’Grady.
