Overview
On the night it mattered most, Galil Ackerman committed in secret a betrayal. For long since her birth she had worked as an agent of Sirrurg's schemes. She was born into a family of those who served the Great Dragon and their desires, but had broken the familiarl bonds, keeping their work loyal, only for a farce of waiting to flee the grips of both her family and Sirrurg. When night came on September 23, 2041, she fled the clutches of Sirrurg, who himself also disappeared that night into the shadows. She believed herself free, until the eventual return of Sirrurg, which placed her in a deep state of panic and concern. Her betrayal was not unknown, and due to it she has found little safe harbor in most of the world. She values secrecy, living now the life of a shadowrunner. She slinks through the quiet of the night, roaming and cleaning her tracks after every step. Since entering hiding, she herself manifested as a drake of Sirrurg, and her hide would sell well; if not for being a drake, but for her betrayal of Sirrurg, and her actions in Amazonia since.
Galil is an apt mage, and focusses on the kinnetic combat involving the motion of her body. She's mastered many martial arts, and uses the inertia of her form to her advantage in her fighting style. Some say the way she floats is cheating, but perhaps that is some innate form of fighting only achievable by those who know how to fly. She also values combat not producible with fists and kicks, focusing on being a master of self defense in a holistic sense; she knows well how to use firearms, and even has piloted in atmosphere vehicles capable of flight. If you ask, she'll say she's been to space, though the truth of it has never been recovered, nor is it likely to be.
