Summary

Witch with a cottage in the woods, demolitions and shapeshifting, with a side of assassination.

Background

Firebug was born into a lower-class family with wageslaves for parents. She was raised to work hard at dull and meaningless jobs, but her parents made sure to get out of town for at least a weekend every year, going camping in the woods. Firebug liked those weekends.

Firebug grew up to be a bit more than a normal, everyday wageslave, working in demolitions with a Saeder-Krupp subsidiary. One day, an inspector from Corporate came buy to evaluate her work. In her nervousness, and in the (at the time) unnoticed aura around the inspector (spoiler: it was Lofwyr doing his micromanagement thing) she Awakened and accidentally dropped an elemental grenade at his feet. Fortunately for her, Lofwyr was amused enough by the fact that this puny human was so stressed out by his mere presence that she Awakened to take offense at the small tickle that didn't even singe his clothes (Firebug was blown off her feet and had second degree burns). A little Assensing later, and it was determined that, actually, she's a pretty weak Awakened, barely capable of even that Elemental Grenade.

She was given a raise, of course; any Awakened is useful, after all, but it was determined that her limited abilities might actually be more suited in her current line of work. She took the weekend off, to clamp down on the stress of the Awakening, and nearly incinerating her boss, having been healed up by the medical mage on duty at the site. She went and camped, like she did with her parents, up in the woods.

There, the cleaner mana helped open her soul to her full potential as she calmed down. By Sunday, she knew she had much more potential than expected, and decided she'd rather live here, in the woods. She continued working until she had enough to buy a small cottage in the woods, and then she burnt her SIN and went off to live there. She then realised she has no idea how to survive without a paycheck, and had to resort to crime, over the course of which she picked up some new spells. Her new home in the woods helped her get in touch with her full power.

 ===Summary===
-Former construction worker fed up with the discrimination against her small size and disability on the site. After meeting a shadowrunner team when she stayed on site one night, she decided her talents were better suited to that life instead. She expanded her repertoire of skills and spells, and began running, or at least wheeling. In the shadows few care what you look like or if you can walk, and those that do are usually quite happy to change their assessment when they see what you're capable of.

 ==Background==
-Binkditinkle Overpipe disliked her parents, for reasons obvious to anyone who saw her SIN. She moved away from California Free State as soon as she turned 18, in order to get away from them. She moved to Seattle, but with her parentally-encouraged civil engineering degree she didn't have many options that appealed to her. She eventually settled on getting a job in the construction industry, by convincing the foreman at a job site she had a useful spell or two, with the help of Carlos, a barely-Awakened ork on the site.

-As a female gnome in an industry heavily dominated by male orks and trolls, she faced discrimination at every turn; she was passed over for promotion a hundred times, and her input was ignored until restated by a larger, greener man. She was sick and tired of it, and looking around for a job, when she stumbled onto a team of low-level shadowrunners performing some industrial espionage on a construction site she was inspecting. Fortunately, they hadn't noticed her first, and she managed to talk to them without getting knocked out or killed. She provided them with some blueprints, and they gave her 5% of their pay.

-After that, she decided shadowrunning was more fun and less discriminatory. Since then, she's picked up more combat spells and compensated her lack of legs with sniper skills, and repurposed her mapping spells to recon.

-* Photographic Memory
+* Records On File with Saeder-Krupp
-Salix has always been able to remember anything she tries to, for as long as she can remember. Which is quite a while. She likes to commit areas she scans with her spells and rituals to memory for later use.

 == Stuff she's actively doing ==
-* Every night she summons a force 1 Air spirit to go and cast Fear on whoever happens to be on guard at the small office building she used as a sniper perch on her first run. This is because 2 different guards there suffered fatal accidents while trying to look for her or arrest her. She had nothing to do with them other than being present. She is now trying to facilitate a story about a haunting.

+* [[Beatrix]] - Either A) A VW Bus Vehicle Spirit (Not Intangible, bound to the body of an actual vehicle) from the 60s on an eternal road trip who offers transcontinental transport (and possibly some drugs), or B) the driver of a VW Bus who provides the same.
