Killa is a member of the [[Knights Hospitaller|Order of Hospitaller Knights]], originally from Los Angeles, PCC. Having lived through the repeated disasters that have torn apart Los Angeles, Killa has learned to survive through banding together with those she trusts.

Inspired by the discovery of the Deep Lacuna, Killa dedicated her life to using her gifts to create new places for people to live and thrive. Her insistence on actually doing help led her to the Order of Hospitaller Knights, and she has since risen to become a prominent magical and parabiological researcher in it.

Overview

Killa is a member of the Order of Hospitaller Knights, originally from Los Angeles, PCC. Having lived through the repeated disasters that have torn apart Los Angeles, Killa has learned to survive through banding together with those she trusts. At the same time, she has learned the importance of reaching out to establish new trust - when the world itself might any day rend apart, it is the bonds between communities that allow life.

Inspired by the discovery of the Deep Lacuna, Killa dedicated her life to using her gifts to create new places for people to live and thrive. Her insistence on actually doing help led her to the Order of Hospitaller Knights, and she has since risen to become a prominent magical and parabiological researcher in it.

Her interest in field work and samples leads her to be somewhat involved with shadowrunners - the ones often on the field. Mostly, she simply pays them to recover particular objects or take measurements, but ones who have proven they won't misuse it might be able to negotiate for some of the Order's magical resources.
