Overview

X-POS-A, or just X for short, is a dogged and driven investigative journalist. Or - that's what they bill themself as. More accurately, they're a resident of Redmond with a knack for writing eye-catching headlines and in possession of a moderately followed blog. Always looking for the next scoop, you can never trust anything to stay secure when X is around - information is meant to be shared, after all! Especially if it gets them the attention of a proper network that'll pick them up or hire them.

For now, they largely work within Redmond, and really don't have a good enough fake SIN to cross the district borders.

X-POS-A's articles all carry a distinctive, rambling writing style. They go off on tangents midway through posts in nearly every instance, and will tend to sensationalize everything they write. They also have a powerful anti-corporate streak.

Aspects Description

Aspect	Description
It's in the name!	If a runner tells X-POS-A tells them something that might make a good scoop, immediately make a test of loyalty. On a failure, the information will end up on her newsblog in one form or another, even if garbled through her usual... style.
Above Aspect pending approval. Please notify Thematics.
Bad SIN	X-POS-A has a poor fake SIN, and doesn't have the resources to acquire a new one. Unless a runner acquires her a burner on a run, treat her as having a Rating 2 SIN, and she'll refuse to cross district borders.
Above Aspect pending approval. Please notify Thematics.
