==Background==
==Background==
Alyssa Abbot was born in September 2052, to a single mother living in Downtown Seattle with her older brother (a recently retired Urban Brawl player). Her father is a low-level Renraku employee who had no interest in sticking around to raise a child. She began to develop her adept powers around the age of 12, and her uncle (with a suspicious amount of enthusiasm and urgency) took the opportunity to teach her to use firearms as well as a rigorous physical education regimen in under to help her develop her powers. As she grew up she took a liking to basic, mostly harmless pranks, attracting the interest of the Raven. With Raven's help and a judicious amount of cheating, she managed to graduate with much higher grades than she really had any reason to.
All things considered Ranger, born Alyssa Abbott, had a fairly normal childhood. She was raised by her mother with her deadbeat dad nowhere to be seen. The only father figure in her life was her uncle John Abbot, a retired Urban Brawl player who'd somehow made it out with all of his limbs still attached. Ranger's uncle was very fond of her, largely viewing her as his own daughter, and taught her how to defend herself with weekly firearms training. When they discovered she was an adept, it was also him who pushed her to develop her magical talents.


Shortly after she left for college her mother retired and immigrated to the California Free State. At school, Alyssa studied Architecture but soon realized that she wasn't really suited for the more technical aspects of higher education. In particular, she found herself largely incapable of passing any type of math classes. She also underwent more extensive training as an adept during this time-frame, learning from the hermetic tradition of magic to control her powers. The stress associated with less than stellar grades and a workload well beyond her capacity led her to to drop all of her classes mid semester, instead traveling across the country, using her powers in less than legal ways to support herself. She returned 2 years later at the insistence of her uncle and continued her studies, this time at a much slower space.
Unfortunately, Ranger didn't fair too well in school. She found herself with an acute disinterest in all lectures and reading assignments, which led to poor results on tests and papers. It was around this time she met Raven, who convinced her to use her natural abilities to her advantage, encouraging her to cheat. Not only did she do this, but she also began using her talents to operate a small business, selling test answers for pocket change to her fellow students. Ultimately, while this was small time stuff, it led to Ranger falling in with a bad crowd. At age 16 she was dealing Zen & Psyche to her classmates, at 18 she helped small gangs boost cars, at 20 it was small scale B&E's. This trend continued for several years, until she found herself in need of a place to launder her ill-gotten gains. She purchased a failing club in Seattle's downtown district and pumped cash injection after cash injection until it became what it is today: Reverb, a thriving business frequented by a number of Seattle's more well to do criminals, up and coming stars & starlets, and junior executives. It was here that she met Mary Claire, who sought her out specifically to offer a chance at a new class of crime.


The day of her graduation her uncle was nowhere to be seen and couldn't be reached by any means. She contacted KE to look into his disappearance, but she didn't hear back from them for days, and when she did they returned with the news that her uncle had been killed in an accident. No official investigation followed, she was never asked to confirm the identity of the body, and the service was closed casket. Alyssa began digging into the incident herself, and finding no evidence of an accident she decided to search her uncle's apartment which had been left to her in his will. The only thing of note she found was a cheap commlink, with 2 contacts in it, Jinx & Dr. Gotham. They initially didn't answer when she called them, but she kept calling, and when they finally picked up they had an interesting story to tell. Alyssa decided to pick up where her uncle left off, donning the name Ranger, with the singular goal of finding out what happened to her uncle that night, and avenging him if at all possible.
Ranger's uncle is currently in a coma resulting from traumatic injury. KE have no leads on suspects and the case is dead in the water. Ranger is pursuing leads in her spare time while supporting her uncle's treatments financially.


== Narrative Significant Qualities ==
==Narrative Significant Qualities==


* Bi-Polar: Ranger was diagnosed with rapid cycling type II bipolar disorder while attending college. She has a prescription for mood stabilizers issued to her national SIN and renews it monthly. Ranger is on the more extreme end of rapid cyclers so if she were ever to lose access to her medication during a run this quality would likely express itself by Ranger shifting between cycles within the span of a week (at the GM's discretion, of course).
*Dependents (Demanding): Represents Ranger's retired mother, her girlfriend, [[Kazu Kishi]], and her uncle, who is currently in a coma.
* Day Job (10 hours/a week - Bouncer): She's tougher than she looks. The shock gloves and pistol under her coat help too.
*Did You Just Call Me Dumb?: There aren't many people Ranger truly respects. She views nearly everyone as a potential mark or tool to be used until they prove themselves otherwise. Unfortunately, she isn't too great at hiding her lack of respect.
* Mentor Spirit: Ranger views Raven as her partner in crime. He's yet to steer her wrong and she doesn't believe he'll ever betray her. Unrelated, but Ranger is also fairly naive.
*Mentor Spirit: Ranger views Raven as her partner in crime. His sense of humor and tendency to stick out for #1 is something she can truly get behind.
* Trust Fund I: Inheritance from her uncle, including a Downtown Seattle apartment and a monthly allowance to cover living expenses.
*SINner National: UCAS citizenship registered to "Alyssa Abbot."
* SINner National: UCAS citizenship registered to "Alyssa Abbot."
