Character Information
Summary
Druggie detective and professional ghost-puncher just trying to make it in life. Is she paranoid, or is she just stoned? Probably both.
Goals
- Continue to stay off the Laesa's radar as much as possible.
- Discover more about the secrets of the universe and the hidden past.
- Figure out what this whole drake thing is all about (specifically regarding her draconic heritage).
Background
Born in Tarislar to SINless parents, the youngest of three children. Her parents both died in the chaos of Crash 2.0, and her older brother ran off to join the Ancients soon after, leaving her to be raised by her older sister until she died of a Tempo overdose in 2072; she awakened soon after and started "seeing ghosts". Survived on the streets for nearly a year before being taken in by the Laesa, and almost ended up as a razorgirl before her talent was noticed and put to use. Worked for the syndicate for years after this as an astral bodyguard and psychometrist, never really receiving much in the way of magical mentor-ship or developing fine control over her abilities - she started using deepweed and loco speedballs to help herself focus, and even got an illegal genemod to enhance their effects.
In 2078 she left the Laesa, cutting all ties with her former employers and moving out of Tarislar after one too many traumatic experiences. Struggling to make it on her own, she took to running small-time cons on wealthy individuals and eventually met a mark who she impressed enough that they became a sort of patron, advertising her as an "artist" and enjoying having her at social events as arm candy and a party trick. After spending several years in a drug-induced haze at high society functions, her employer was suddenly assassinated by a runner team in front of her; evidently they felt a bit bad about it, because a few of them took her on as a dependent after. One day they didn't come back from a job, and she managed to put two and two together - and to find the emergency credstick with their fixer's contact info on it.
Entering the shadows, she returned to the mean streets of Tarislar and started putting her skills to work as an independent contractor.
Narrative Significant Qualities
Positive
- Drake (Western)
- A fledgling drake who recently discovered her nature.
- Delphi is unsure of who her draconic progenitor is - based on the timing of her birth and the Draco Foundation's interest in her she believes (and hopes) that she is one of Dunklezhan's last brood, however Hestaby has also taken an interest in her affairs.
- A fledgling drake who recently discovered her nature.
- Explorer (Seer) + Astral Bouncer
- An accomplished aura reader, diviner, and psychometrist.
- Mentor Spirit: Oracle + Chosen Follower
- She has an imaginary friend to help her solve mysteries.
- Oracle appears to her as a classic hard-boiled noir detective, complete with trenchcoat, hat and ever-present cigarette and 5-o'clock-shadow, who helps points out clues that she might have missed and provides an ongoing inner monologue to her investigations.
- She has an imaginary friend to help her solve mysteries.
- Analytical Mind + Photographic Memory + Speed Reading
- A keen eye and an inquisitive mind can be an asset, but perfect recall isn't always a good thing in the shadows.
Negative
- Wanted
- People will pay a lot of money for drake scales...
- Disheveled
- This girl really needs to find herself a decent stylist.
- Insomnia
- Even with the sleep regulator it can be hard for her to get a good night's sleep.
- Curiosity Killed the Cat + Down the Rabbit Hole + Lack of Focus + One Born Every Minute
- She might be smart, but as it turns out pattern recognition skills have their downsides sometimes.

Appearance
Clothing
Favors casual styles in dark colours, sometimes with wiccan symbolism and other occult iconography; "dressing up" consists of an off-the-rack suit, along with a trilby and trenchcoat to complete the detective look. Typically wears a pair of black velvet enchanting gloves in order to block out unwanted psychometric impressions.
Augmentations
Has an obvious right cyberarm - a sleek matte black affair, inlaid with silver in a distinctive scale-like pattern (the right side of her skull is also cybernetic, however it is covered up by fiberoptic hair). Has a datajack on the back of her neck and a skilljack behind her right ear. Has a small LED tattoo on her forehead in the shape of a third eye, which she sometimes likes to turn on while assensing for dramatic effect.
Matrix Persona
A trio of personae that she switches between depending on the situation and the device that she's using:
- An androgynous elven seer, white-haired and blindfolded, clad in a blue-grey hooded robe and boots with a third eye on the forehead and an owl (agent) on the shoulder.
- Used with her Nixdorf Sekretar (form-factored to resemble an analog wristwatch) for casual browsing and legwork.
- An android private eye, half-obscured by ever-present shadows, clad in a brown trenchcoat and hat with a featureless metallic skull and a flickering digital cigarette.
- Used with her EvoTech Himitsu (form-factored to resemble an old metal lunchbox) for reconnaissance and spying.
- An gynoid with a half-transparent wire-frame body, sporting long pink hair and a digital third eye, shadowed by an avatar of her cat familiar (agent) as a companion.
- Used with her Shiawase Cyber-4 (form-factored to resemble a cyberarm-mounted wrist-computer) for serious Matrix work.
Character Plot Hooks
Aspect | Information | Related Run(s) |
---|---|---|
Civilian Life | Delphi received a UCAS SIN from the Draco Foundation in Detective Denouncement - she is legally employed by the Dunklezhan Institute of Magical Research as a consulting investigator, and is currently taking classes at the University of Washington. She is exceptionally careful not to leave any trails between this identity and her shadow activities, however her operational security isn't perfect and she may slip up at times. | |
Drake-ness | Delphi awakened as a drake in Detective Denouncement - there were several witnesses, and more people know about this than she would prefer. In addition to about three dozen cultists from The Pantheon, several PCs (currently Mara and Zenith) and NPCs (Argent, Informer and Cynthia Rochette to name a few, as well as Ryan Mercury, and the Great Dragon Hesteby) are aware of this secret. | |
Shiawase Brazen Heads | In The Denverite Debacle, Delphi inadvertently allowed a series of brazen heads (skull-shaped CCUs created by the Marketing Information and Forecasting Department as divination aids and information gathering devices) to be distributed around the world in secure locations in order to spy on people and help predict various trends. There are approximately 150 of them in total, and she is keen to see that they are all dealt with. |
