Character Information
Summary
Dr. Jessie DeVaux is a Decker who lost her chance at an honest life after a targeted bombing happened at her college. She graduated, but with a new fire under her she turned to some old bad habits to start on a path for her revenge. She goes by Koi, and happens to resemble one in color a good bit too.
Goals
- Get under the Humanis Politiclub's skin and ruin them to the best of her ability.
- Get back what she lost (magic)
- Geek Redliner (the dude behind the Humanis drek)
- Help Isaac (contact) get back at the group that took his wife from him.
Background
Jessie is a girl who always had too much to say. For the amount of fights she got in when she was younger you would think that she would be stronger, and that was the case before the incident at her college happened. But this is skipping a bit ahead, lets start from somewhere that matters.
Childhood: Jessie can't remember her childhood, and that is because it is the soul reason for her ability to perfectly repress memories. But that doesn't mean it didn't happen. When she was young she was born from two people who both had some kind of genetic alteration, which made her come out with a small birth defect; Albinism. This lead to a mix of early childhood bullying and some friends that she thought that she had. But overall her childhood was uneventful up until she turned 12. As with most Runners, crime and criminals have been apart of her life for a long time, and she had been given a radio-shack deck for her birthday. And like anybody with the means, motive, and aptitude she began to steal things online. Starting at piracy and moving to real money. Due to her lack of experience she was caught, and her house was attacked by a few criminals who were tipped off that somebody in their home had been stealing from them and wanted revenge. The men broke in, and her parents were killed when the criminals were caught by them late at night. One of the men died on the way out as her father shot one, but the others ended up putting him down in return. She hid through the whole experience, but was still scared by it. She kept stealing, and this time got a deck that would keep her safe. She began to run with a gang in the area, but this wouldn't last long. She eventually tried to steal from a couple in town, which would go down in history as the worst attempt at thievery she would ever do in her entire life. The man she had tried to steal from was Isaac Daniels, and after seeing the potential that she had decided to take her in. And in exchange she would keep doing what she did as long as she did her best to keep her friends away from them. This arrangement never really came to an end either. (tldr: Grew up normally. Got into hacking but was sloppy at first and got parents killed. Honed her skills for revenge.)
College Life: Her college life began when she hacked a community college to spoof a transfer record and went off to a prestigious school. Thinking that if she went to college like her father always had wanted her to that she would be able to do better for herself. This went exceptionally well, but only due to the fact that she never had to study. She would sit down and read the textbooks cover to cover and spend the rest of her time using her deck to get enough money to stay in attendance. This is when she met Vega. He provided a bit of normalcy, and in exchange for her helping him study he helped her get enough money to eat. And this all went perfectly until the attack on the college happened. Neither of them know what happened, but she was furious to find out that somebody was paid to do this. Tracked him down and killed him. This took place over a painfully long time of information gathering, school work, and near vigilante dedication. And after she tracked him to a bar down town she proceeded to walk into his home and shoot him on her graduation day. He died silently in his sleep, but she felt the best she had ever been and knew that it was time for a change of pace. (tldr: went to college, was bombed, ended up getting revenge and turning to running)
Life Before becoming a full time runner: She turned to hiding with Isaac while getting herself a fake SIN and started to get herself known. But this wasn't all smooth sailing, and she ended up spending a long time as a server admin to make ends meet. She knew where she needed to be at this point, and with next to nothing left in her pockets and a burning hole where her savings used to be she moved to do what she had set out to do. Make Isaac proud, and find the people who hired the bomber.
