Ork-posing street kid turned burnout on the run from a AAA megacorp turned Buddhist street sam seeking nirvana.
Goals

- Achieve enlightenment.
Background
Born in Tarislar to a relatively well-off family of Tir exiles who constantly talked of the motherland and dreamed of returning there. Naturally she rebelled, and growing up at the height of the orxploitation craze the easiest way to do so was by adopting trog culture to piss off her parents. However she found that she actually enjoyed Goblin Rock, and one night she stole the family minivan to go see Crime Time perform at Underworld 93, vibing so hard to the sick beats that she Awakened on the spot.
After experiencing a night like that, there was no way she was returning back home - instead she started living out of the car and hanging around the Ork Underground, even getting tusks and some biosculpting work done to fit in better. It took a while, but she eventually she found a group of friends in the Skraacha that accepted her presence. However she was constant need of money to survive, and eventually she found an opportunity for employment with Renraku when the megacorp started recruiting workers from the ranks of the SINless following the incorporation of the OU as an offical district of the Metroplex.
It turns out that she was just what Renraku was looking for - someone in the top physical percentile of agility and reaction speed who could be used to field test their new Move-by-Wire system. They gave her a genetic treatment to maximize her physical prowess, then laced her bones with aluminum and threaded wires through her muscles and nerves; they also didn't ask her permission first, and evidently expected that the process would burn out what little magic she had. It didn't, and when she woke up after the surgery she heard the voice in her head urging her to take revenge, killing the doctors with her bare hands and fleeing before security could manage to catch up with her thanks to her new augments.
After making her escape, she took shelter with the Skraacha in the lower levels of the OU and started working for them as an enforcer, taking work where she could get it. Although she's managed to make a bit of a name for herself and earn an invitation to join the Haven, she finds herself feeling unfulfilled with a life of violence and has started seeking solace in religion, taking up traditional Buddhist practices such as yoga and meditation as she attempts to find some semblance of inner peace and quell the raging spirit that dwells within her.
