Dirk Mulker
Archetype: Human Corporate Mail Boy
Can't be more than seventeen and the
poster boy for the executive wanna be. He is nice, courteous, and smart. Very
smart.
Although Dirk can play the pretty boy,
his life outside the corporate building is much different. He spends most of his
time running the sewers, looking for new shortcuts and new adventure underneath
the city. When he isn't doing that he's raging away at some underground club or
drowning his wage slave sorrows in BTLs. But Dirk is far from messed up. He
knows exactly what he's doing.
Dirk contains vast amounts of
information concerning goings on within his corporation and the building itself.
He is also familiar with the surrounding area and knows of many secret ways to
get close to the building's basement, perhaps even into it. He also has a small
group of friends he runs and clubs with and whom, together, can provide quite a
detailed map of that part of the city's underground. Dirk lives with his
parents.
Chan Koler
Archetype: Human Street Kid
Chan, sixteen, never leaves the sewer
which has drained his skin of virtually all of its color as with his eyes. He
always carries his sub machine gun and pistol in full view and has two grenades
on his belt. He smokes heavily.
Chan and Dirk are as close to brothers
as you can get without a blood tie. They would die for each other. When the two
talk they always do it in secret. The pistol Chan carries is actually Dirk's and
he hands it over to him when they meet underground. One of the grenades is also
Dirk's.
Chan always mysteriously shows up when
Dirk meets with Danielle and Mank, seemingly appearing out of the black, and
disappears when he leaves. Where he lives, nobody but Dirk knows.
Mank Farnek
Archetype: Human Street Kid
Rather chubby, he is always eating
something. When in a hurry, though, he is unbelievable quick. He is attempting
to grow scruff, but at twelve the odds are unlikely.
Mank is the brains of the operation,
mechanically at least. His hobby was electronics before he was abandoned several
months ago. After Dirk met up with him, he quickly became skilled in the
art of lock picking. He can also Jerry rig small devices and is a non-cyber
computer nerd.
Danielle Coby
Archetype: Elven Street Shaman Adept
Danielle has a steel plate covering the
left side of her face, minus the eye and the right side of her face is scarred
and burnt. She wears shamanic clothing, walks with a skip, and plays a small,
very old flute. She is thirteen.
Danielle was found abandoned in an alley
by some runners, badly mauled, when she was ten. They delivered her to a low
quality cyber shop and continued on with their run, never to appear again. The
cyber technician did the best he could with the materials he had to reconstruct
her badly mauled face, eventually being forced to cover half. He then dropped
her off at a mage friend's house.
As Danielle healed her memory of her
past remained lost and she was bounced from location until finally she found
herself on the streets at age twelve. Only recently she has discovered her
magical gift and has cultivated it to the point that she can cast a couple of
small, low level, and harmless spells. The damage to her body has permanently
lowered her magic rating and it is unlikely she will ever achieve her full spell
casting potential. She and Mank live in a small chamber off of a small sewer
line.
