Overview

Effective supply sergeants come in many forms. Some have an almost instinctive understanding of resource management and bureaucracy. Some, a talent for making themself a nuisance until their demands are met. And some have what one might call a “criminal mind.” Estelle Valka was one of the latter. While she did still fulfill her duty as a supply sergeant at Fort Lewis, her career took a backseat to her many side hustles a long time ago. By the time her service ended Estelle had enough influence to get a sinecure as a private contractor for the UCAS military, granting a veneer of legitimacy to her dealings while retaining access to the army’s storerooms. Her involvement in fixing started with connecting UCAS military officers trying to advance their careers or cover up mistakes to runners, but since then her career has brought her into contact with Shadowhaven and its multitude of clients.

Estelle is your stereotypical sleazy quartermaster (though she’s in the business less for the money and more for the love of the game). Even though she’s not a member of the army anymore she still acts like a disillusioned soldier, mostly just because of ingrained habit. She knows (almost) everyone and can find you (almost) anything, but is reluctant to leave her desk and deal with problems in-person.

Aspects Description

Aspect Description
The Grind Never Stops Estelle has a half-dozen side hustles going on at any given time, which keeps her very busy. Always make an Availability Test for this Contact with her Connection 3 higher than normal.
Milspec +2 for acquiring F-rated weapons and armor, which she will insist nobody will miss. It's probably fine.
Motor Pool +2 for vehicle-related checks. Service members love their lifted trucks and brass-ignorant modifications, after all.
Ex-Army +2 to networking with any UCAS military personnel.
Fort Lewis Fixture Estelle makes a point of knowing who's who in her area, military or civilian. +2 to networking with anyone in the Fort Lewis district.
