Overview
A matrix whiz who considers herself to be one of the coolest kids in Seattle; this is cemented by her membership in an adeptly named Decker Group who calls themselves "The Cool Kids". She hates Corporations and anyone who works for them (unless it's NeoNET) and spends half her time playing pranks on any Corpo she finds in the Matrix when she's bored. She is obsessed with tech - especially her Fairlight Excalibur Deck - and spends most of the cash she earns as a Hacker and "Cool Kid" on upgrading her gear and considers anyone who does the same one of her "Best Friends"(though if they're a Corpo, that doesn't apply). Her disdain for Corporations inspired Kate to get into the Fixing scene - helping those who would "stick it to the man" to do so effectively and get rich doing it.
Of all the Corporations, however, the one Kate downright hates to the core is Aztechnology. She refuses to ever speak of why, and even just asking about it gives her reason to ghost you for a week or more.
She thinks she's the best Fixer around because of her hacking and networking skills, but most people say that's just her ego talking - not that Kate cares about what other people think.
