Man, it's a good thing I decided to roll with a Phantom, then. We've already got two special snowflakes murderbeasts. Speaking of, my character's mostly done. I've just got to put together a background and it'll be ready to post...unless I decide to wait for B to post his dude, since I think there's a joke I'll be able to make.

Can't blame people for wanting the cool Tagers. I look forward to seeing what you've got. Starting to seem I'll have to provide N.P.C.s for the Lorekeeper and Operator roles, the way this is going.

I was torn between Spectre and Vampire for quite awhile. But I finally chose Vampire :169:

Plus having someone else with a Hybrid limit will help if we run into anything we really shouldn't be fighting.

Name: Shury
Pack Name: Inaba
Allegiance: The Eldritch Society
Profession: Operative
Race: Nazzadi
Virtue: Optimist
Flaw: Foolish

Physical Appearance: Inaba is small and fragile-looking for a Nazzadi, generally wrapping herself in a long, white greatcoat when she's out and about in Wilmarth. On the other hand, she is Nazzadi, and has little problem wandering around completely naked whilst safely hidden away in the Wetworks, although she will often wear a vest and shorts to stop her equipment harness chafing if nothing else. She has several scars on her dark skin - they stand out starkly, considering her lack of the usual Nazzadi tattoos. She only has one, an inch high white rabbit stencilled onto her left calf. The only other thing she wears on a day to day basis is her stylish glasses, shaped to make the most of her narrow face and large, red eyes.

Background: Inaba came from the American Midwest. She proudly claims to be the child of a mixed race family, although she will sheepishly admit to being a pureblood herself. She refuses to explain more of her past than that, instead rambling off into strange faerie stories and lies when questioned, and never the same ones twice. Whatever happened, she has a powerful distrust of humans despite her flirtatious bluster.

For the GM:[hide]
Hunted by: KKK (Especially Knights of the White Camelia)

Background: Shury grew up with her Nazzadi mother and human step-father in a small town in east texas. While she learned English to function in normal society, her parents spoke nothing but Nazzadi at home, and she considers that to be her native language.

When she was fifteen, she dated a local human boy, Angel Cook for several months. On the night of her sixteenth birthday, he took her up to the overlook, a small hill from which the whole town could be seen. She believed he had intended a romantic rendezvous, but his actual designs were far more sinister. Angel was to be inducted that night into the Knights of the White Camelia, and she was to be his initiation.

Tradition demands that a cross be anointed with the blood of a sacrifice before burning, but Angel had other ideas. He planned to cuff her to the cross itself and let the fire do the killing for him. Shury struggled, and Angel was the one who burned.

The Code of the White Rabbit;
- I always keep my word.
- I will protect the downtrodden and the needy.
- I will always avenge a personal insult.
- I cannot fail in my service. I will succeed or die trying.
- I will never turn my back on a friend in need.

The Compulsions of the White Rabbit;
- Always washes her face after eating.
- Always flirt with dominant personalities.

The Damage of the White Rabbit;
- Humans are vicious, treacherous monsters. Inaba can't trust easily,
but especially not humans.

The Dark Secret of the White Rabbit;
- Inaba's first boyfriend was a Klan member who seduced her in
a bid to acquire her for ritual execution. She killed him.

The Delusion of the White Rabbit;
- Inaba believes in fairies.

Background: The daughter of scientists, Kaly was pressured at an early age to follow in her parents' footsteps. However, their constant pressure led her to spurn their wishes and instead become something of a party girl. Her wild life and string of questionable relationships eventually led to trouble when her latest boyfriend revealed himself as a Dhoanoid. Needless to say, she had trouble accepting this. Not too long after, she was approached by the Eldritch Society and joined, becoming a Tager. Unfortunately, the bonding process and everything else she has seen since joining has left Kaly quite jaded.

Background: Inaba admits she grew up in the southern USA, and that she was raised by her mother and a human man she took as a husband. Any further questioning, however, is met by a variety of strange and unbelievable faerie stories that change with every telling. What is known, however, is that something left her with several knife scars and that despite her flirting she is rather distrustful of humans.

She is hunted by the Knights of the White Camellia, for they desire vengeance. For now, she is safe, living and working at the Wetworks for the Eldritch Society whilst maintaining a cover as a freelance counter-hacker. It amuses her no end that her main client while acting in the role of samurai is Crysalis Corp itself.
