Character Information
Summary
Sticks, born as Desmond Brown, is an Elf born and raised in the city of New Orleans. He ran from his parents and their increasing pressure for him to lead in their crime family, becoming a shadowrunner out of pure survival and a need to lay low. This led to him having a personality rather unfit for a shadowrunner: with a go-getter optimistic attitude, empathic nature, and a fascination for cats that would likely keep him out of more morally dubious runs.
Goals
Sticks, at the moment, wishes to pay off the mortgage he has sustained thanks to Desmond's Cajun Delights. Afterwards, he wishes to buy an actual house for himself in Touristville and open a cat sanctuary for the feral colonies in Seattle.
Powers
Sticks is a full A-Priority Magician under the Shamanistic tradition. He is currently at Initiate Grade 1, not quite powerful as a runner (yet) but has the potential to get stronger. He specializes less in his spellcasting and more of the interaction, summoning, and banishing of spirits; however, he has a sizable spell list, and has a bonus to Illusion spells thanks to his Mentor Spirit. Eyes In The Dark is a free spirit that has imprinted on him, and may be summoned if the GM feels it's appropriate.

Fake Rating 4 SIN- Desmond Green
Appearance
Sticks is a 5'11 black Elf of a skinny, lanky stature fitting for his title. He sports frosted, tightly braided dreadlocks that droop to about shoulder-length that he ties into a ponytail during missions. He has dark hair, hazel eyes, and an intentional scar on his left eyebrow. He typically sports a small amount of makeup and war paint to match his Shaman image: most notably three stripes of black paint on each side of his face, starting at his jaw extending toward his cheekbones, somewhat resembling the stripes of a tiger.
Clothing
For casual clothing (and low-risk runs), Sticks sports a chest-length crop top and a black leather vest with worn-down skinny jeans and a pair of (formerly) nice but (now) worn-out sneakers. He usually sports various bone-related jewelry typical of a Shaman, namely a pair of alligator-tooth earrings and a necklace of various small bones from rats, rabbits, or birds (he considers it a "gift" from his cats). For more formal occasions, like a party, he may choose to wear a mesh shirt instead... Otherwise, not much changes about his appearance due to a lack of funding.
Matrix Persona
Character Plot Hooks
Here are characteristics of the character that GMs may take advantage of to add complications to runs, or to otherwise use when in use. If you want to use them in unrelated to runs, please ask first.
Aspect | Information | Related Run(s) |
---|---|---|
Aspect 1 | Former Crime Family | Sticks had to run away from the Brown Family, his biological family, so he wouldn't be forced in. They didn't like it. (Contact Tidanshock if you want to do this; he has his own plans for it) |
Aspect 2 | The Archaic Society | Since the Brown Family are allies to The Archaic Society, he is, at the very least, negatively viewed by them. |
Aspect 3 | Desmond's Cajun Delights | He is the proud owner of a restaurant and bar known as Desmond's Cajun Delights. This can be a meeting place for the J if desired. |
Aspect 4 | Man of the Spirits | Sticks has a special relationship with spirits. He currently has the Free Spirit contacts Wusan, Murmuring Brook, and Eyes In The Dark. He's also very willing to perform spirit markers. This should be noted for any spirit-related runs. |
Aspect 5 |
