Background
Born an elven SIN-less, to Human Runner parents, Astrix grew up in the shadows, her family moved frequently. Her parents were careful to keep her separated from their runs, never taking her with them, or letting her meet anyone from their team- leaving their daughter woefully unprepared for the life that she was destined to live. She has met one member of their team, a Shapeshifter Techno, he showed her all she needed to know. The Matrix can be manipulated. And he showed her how- the downfall- he is the one that killed her family. All she had in the world, was riding on him, and he drove them straight into a line of gunfire.
Her parents died when she was ten. Leaving her alone in this big, dark, shadow of a world. She left her home after being evicted and lived on the streets for a while, picking up enough fighting skills to be left alone. Eventually she found the School, a non-profit that had rooming. She lived there for years, learning and educating herself. Teaching herself how to get in and out of the Matrix.
Her roommates joined her life soon after she moved in. Alyss and Jamey. The two who seemed inseparable, always together, always online. Once she started disappearing for long periods at a time they became worried she would get herself in trouble. They decided they would be joining her in her ventures and have since become Runners, Alyss leaving her almost-normal life behind without a second thought. The three see each other rarely outside of the room, but they spend a lot of time staying together and talking in their room.
After she got the hang of it she would do small jobs, Pirating, Snagging info she shouldn’t be able to get a hold of. Just generally being a nuisance. As she was so young people would tend to disregard her, making her a good Tail, and a good Pickpocket, thief from Stores and homes. Small things.
