Overview
Meet Grani, a seasoned professional with a unique journey that began at the age of 18 when they joined the Finnish Defense Force. After completing their mandatory service, Grani transitioned into the corporate realm, finding a place within the ranks of the AA-rated company, Erika. The road was not without its challenges, as Grani grappled with the shadows of their past, navigating the complexities of managing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Despite the rocky start, Grani carved a niche for themselves as a field agent, demonstrating resilience and determination in the face of adversity. Now, retired from the front lines, Grani continues to contribute to Erika's operations by keeping a vigilant watch over the company's assets abroad. Their journey reflects a fusion of military discipline, corporate acumen, and a commitment to overcoming personal struggles for the pursuit of professional success.
Yet in the shadowy expanse of Seattle's corporate landscape, Grani finds themselves entangled in a web of complexities, struggling to navigate the city's intricate nuances. The relentless pressure from theor Erika superiors to safeguard local assets, the menacing presence of Saeder-Krupp operatives, and persistent connections attempting to unearth their drake status create a maelstrom of challenges.
Seattle's sprawling matrix, a realm of digital intrigue, holds its own perils for Grani. The lurking threat of a malevolent persona, haunting and attempting to blackmail them, adds an additional layer of stress to an already tumultuous situation. The matrix becomes both a battleground and a maze, where Grani must tread carefully to protect their secrets and maintain their sanity.
Amidst the chaos, Grani grapples with the need to open up about the looming matrix persona. The realization dawns that confronting and sharing this burden is essential for long-term stability. The weight of secrecy, coupled with external pressures, threatens to erode the very foundation Grani has worked so hard to build.
Yet, beneath the surface, there's a resilience that promises endurance. Grani's journey in Seattle is a testament to their ability to weather storms, to confront both corporate and personal demons head-on. As the city's enigmatic allure and formidable challenges shape their experience, Grani is poised to find stability and perhaps even triumph in this intricate dance between survival and revelation.
Loyalty | Potential attitude |
---|---|
1 | Strictly Business, no voice calls. |
2 | Reticent and voice availlable, no physical meets. |
3 | Available to meet in person, occasional personal chit-chat, will ask how they are doing. |
4+ | Genuine care, and struggles to differentiate between work and personal life, will open up about themselves and their contacts willingly, will offer services without being asked. |
Aspects Description
Aspect | Description |
---|---|
Not Supposed to be here | Grani is selective about who he works with. Notoriety has a double penalty when dealing with him: subtract twice the runner's Notoriety from any check he is asked to do. |
Hiding from Saeder-Krupp | He believes Finland has enough problems without the Saeder-Krupp sniffing around his business. Treat his Loyalty as two lower if you have a positive rep with the corporation. If this would drop Loyalty below 1, you cannot take him as a contact. If you develop a positive rep with those circles after buying him, he isn't lost, but will not answer your messages unless you lose your rep. |
Derealized Ego | Having spent time in the Military, they have points in their life where they lose touch of themselves, making it easier for them to slip into the military 'do-or-die' mindset. When being tasked with potentially dangerous work, they can often slip back into that mindset and will be able to help out without fear. |
International Transport | If requiring international transport either too or from Finland, Grani can help you acquire fake sins and connections into and out of the country, provided you're not doing something that could potentially hurt Erika. |
Drake | Grani is a drake, but keeps it very secret. |
Blackmail | Grani can help potentially dig up and use information to use for blackmail, especially against corporate targets like those from SK. |
Matrix Tag Team | Grani can help potentially tag team a matrix search on request at double the normal cost. |
