Xayah de Solei, a woman with an exceptional intellect from when she was very young. Born under the light of a comet, blessed with intelligence and charisma, she forged out into the world at a young age. Excelling at most things she tried, she picked up a corporate sponsor. Horizon lifted her from her life in the Barons. Opting to give her exceptional skills as a decker to set out on finding information, and eventually as a member of a secret project within the confines of Horizon's walls. One to which she still starkly speaks of.

Time passed, she flew through the ranks as she accumulated more and more knowledge before she was placed on a small sub project of an asset the company had come by. Koi, or rather, a woman named Jessie. She lacked a real last name, but was given the task of forging her a new identity as she makes her way into Seattle to work. So, piece by piece, she laid the foundations and paved the road ahead of her for success. Until she didn't... seeing the horrors of the runner's life, and experiencing second hand the dissonant code that she had contracted. She wasn't the same afterwords. Months passed, and the foundations shook as Koi rocked her world. Her plans failing to take her to victory, inches from discovery. Xayah pushed her off the path she had set for her, and Koi's life came crashing down outside the loose grip that Horizon kept on her. Koi died, and with her she took a bit of Xayah with her. She had built her life from scratch, and the abrupt and visceral nature of her death... The fact Xayah had been accessing her memories during her death, trying to tell her not to do it. Xayah's memories had been ripped from her in an instant. Koi's death stripping her of her sanity as the death took a fragment of Xayah's soul with her.  
Her tranquil life ended when corporate hunters captured her, drawn by legends of an albino bear with mystical powers.

The vestigial tail she bore was a subtle reminder of her true form.


Xayah was unceremoniously fired. Horizon not knowing the asset they let slip through their fingers, the strange code awakening a line of thinking in her head which she cultivated. The world reshaped, she *felt* the technology around her instead of through her deck... which Horizon had reclaimed from her. She forged out, desperately clinging to the life she once had while trying her hardest to prove to herself that she wasn't the monster she thought she was, and trying to find where her memories had gone.
Driven to fight the evil she had witnessed, Xayah became a shadowrunner. Using her talents and strength to protect those around her. Though her control sometimes slipped, she constantly strove to control them to avoid harming innocents.

Background

Xayah was born under the full moon in the ancient forests of the Pacific Northwest, an Ursine Shifter with Dryad heritage. As an albino bear cub with shimmering, bioluminescent fur, she was a rare being blessed by nature, but destined for things far from it's comforts.

Her tranquil life ended when corporate hunters captured her, drawn by legends of an albino bear with mystical powers. Imprisoned and subjected to cruel experiments, Xayah's latent metagenic traits were forcibly awakened through a Sudden Recessive Genetic Expression (SURGE). However, the experiments had unforeseen consequences. She shifted, the allure that she had before multiplied as her sentience and SURGE awoken inside of her. The corporation intended to exploit her new abilities, but with the aid of a spirit and new mentor that had taken to her, and a surge of mystical power, Xayah escaped. Now free yet lost in the urban sprawl of Seattle, Xayah grappled with the challenges of metahuman society. Uneducated and unfamiliar with technology, she relied on her intuition and deep connection to nature. Her Glamour drew people to her, while her albinism and bioluminescent glow made her stand out. The vestigial tail she bore was a subtle reminder of her true form.

Driven to fight the evil she had witnessed, Xayah became a shadowrunner. Using her talents and strength to protect those around her. Though her control sometimes slipped, she constantly strove to control them to avoid harming innocents.

Fiercely loyal, she embraced the principle of "No Man Left Behind," risking her safety for her companions. Her intense emotions often led to impulsive actions, a manifestation of her Poor Self-Control. Despite the hardships, Xayah sought solace in nurturing pockets of nature within the city, fighting to keep others out of corporate hands.
