===Summary===
 
A shifter adopted by a Halloweener Rager before her Awakening, Hotdog has since discovered an supernatural talent for manipulating twolegs. And burning drek. A proud member of her found family, Hotdog is always down to cause chaos and stick it to Seattle's other gangs.
 
Following an attack on a Halloweener BTL production facility by other ShadowHaven runners which lead to close friends being injured and other brethren dying, she's adopted an entirely new persona to hide her affiliation and bide her time while waiting for an opportunity to prove her gang isn't the joke they're treated as.
 
Now running under the handle "Raum," he presents himself as a recent immigrant from Neo-Tokyo looking to find his place in the Emerald City.
 
===Goals===
 
* Reinvent ourself. We let people think they understood us, let ourself be a target, that was a mistake.
* Sell the lie. Maintain the facade for as long as possible. Gather our strength unnoticed.
 
* Avenge those lost and injured in the Bitter Lake attack.
* <s>Make Mother of Mayhem the bestest Rager in the sprawl!</s>
** She's the boss, we'd do anything for us, and that'll never change. But for now, we need to focus inward.
* <s>Figure out twoleg society, drek is complicated!</s>
** This has gotten boring, approaching the puzzle the same way. We're changing things up, proving ourself as a proper social infiltrator. We ''are'' good enough.
* Burn the Ancients that attacked Mother's underlings.
** Eye for an eye, blood for blood. We'll get what we're owed, one way or another. We just need to be smart about this, or more of our family gets hurt.
* <s>Make the Halloweeners the top gang ever!!!</s>
** We're already the best. We were always the best. One day, they'll all know that.
* <s>Meet Borderline.</s>
** Fuck her. She wasn't there, hasn't been there for years, ran off to be a hotshot JackPointer instead of sticking with her family.
 
==Background==
===Hotdog===
Originally an exotic pet kept by a member of the Watada-gumi who was ignorant of her magical nature, Hotdog became stranded in Redmond as a pup after her owner's private plane was shot down by shadowrunners. Her original owner was finished off after the crash, but the fox survived with injuries and was left behind. Eventually, a squad of Halloweeners came by to loot the crash site. Hotdog doesn't remember much about her life in Japan or her original owner, but cemented in her mind is the memory of the 'weener's Rager, Mother of Mayhem, finding her in the rubble, taking pity on her, holding her, pressing a gun to the forehead of a street doc who said he wasn't gonna operate on a fox and that he was booked for the whole day anyways. He found the time. "Hotdog," as she was named after devouring a package of soydogs once taken back to Mother's home, found a family. Mother regularly took her along during gang business, to parties at the Jackal's Lantern, almost using Hotdog like a mascot for her little section of the gang.
 
Mother was shocked when Hotdog figured out her abilities a year later. Mostly because she came home to a confused naked woman with a fox tail in her apartment one day. After a tense, borderline nonsensical explanation full of tear, she stopped pointing a gun at Hotdog and told her that she was still loved, that nothing had to change. The rest of the gang might've been suspicious of the strange girl suddenly hanging around with the Rager, though, so Hotdog was burned in, made a proper member of the Halloweeners. She wears the scars, and her colors, proudly.
 
Hotdog's magical talents made her a useful member of the thrill gang, both when causing destruction and dealing in more delicate business. She didn't really get ''why'' she was setting elves on green bikes on fire, or arguing for the number for a brick of white powder to go down, but she was good at it and it made Mother happy! Learning the business has been a slow process, but Hotdog is determined to do her best. Learning to read from Mother's old horror novels helped.
 
A recent raid by the Ancients has seriously depleted the resources of Mother of Mayhem's section of the gang, threatening her position as a Rager. Unwilling to let that happen without doing ''something'' to help, Hotdog has started selling her talents to others as a shadowrunner. Anything to help her Mother.
 
== Narrative Significant Qualities ==
 
===Positive===
* Candle in the Darkness + Rank: Raum has his own weird sense of honor, based on the rules of the streets and loyalty to his gang. That devotion and his own personal strength have recently allowed him to start climbing the ranks of the gang, leaving a small gaggle of gangers under his command. Unfortuantely he's chosen to break that creed for the first time in pursuit of his goals, shaking the faith of many of his allies.
* Erased: Information about Raum seems to have a tendency to fall off of the Matrix. No social media presence, no mugshots in the evening news, nothing.
* First Impression: Something about Raum just puts you at ease, at least until you get a chance to learn the type of bastard he is. A confident swagger, a perfectly timed smile, all the little things that add up just right.
* Mentor Spirit (Chaos): There's voices, in the back of Raum's head, nudging him into causing trouble. Mouth off when everything's going smoothly, "accidentally" let a friend's secret slip, shout fire in a crowded theater... Chaotic images swirl around Raum when he works his magic, flashes of black flame and grasping tendrils.
* Rabble Rouser: A performer at heart, Raum knows how to keep his cool when he's the center of attention in front of a crowd.
* History Is Not As Certain As We Are Taught: Looking into the Cult of Transcended Flesh has exposed Raum to certain Truths about that which seeks to destroy all of creation. He's always ''believed'' in the Old Gods, but perhaps he'd be better off having his faith remain unproven...
===Negative===
 
* Addiction (Mild, Novacoke): A history of relying on the drug to ease up in social situations has left Raum with a slight dependency on novacoke.
* Code of Honor (Thug Life): Despite living in shame by wearing plain clothes instead of his colors, Raum is entirely devoted to the growth and protection of his gang.
* Lack of Focus: Easily distracted, Raum has to spend considerable effort to stay focused on a single task instead of immediately moving on to the next thing.

Hotdog:

|LowResult=Hotdog is a loud and proud Halloweener face and mage of some sort. Predictably, she seems more than a bit dumb and has novacoke habit. Seems to have some vulpine features like a tail and slitted eyes, unclear if they're biomods or something else.
|MidThreshold=3
|MidResult=Horrifying imagery seems to manifest whenever Hotdog works her magic, and her spirits usually take the form of Eldritch abominations. A Redmond decker by the name of [[R@M]] has been spreading her story after the events of [[Johnfidence]].
|HighThreshold=5
|HighResult=Hotdog is most likely a shifter, although being raised by the Halloweener [[Mother of Mayhem]] has lead to her embracing a fucked up version of metahumanity more than her animal side, most of the time. She is easily distracted, prone to violence and bombastic actions, and loyal to her gang to a fault.

==Appearance==
 
In her natural form, Hotdog looks like a red fox of above average, but not extraordinary, size with a few burn scars.
 
In her metahuman form, Hotdog appears to be a young Japanese human woman of slight build and below-average height. Her wild, fiery hair and amber eyes with slitted pupils and irises that are just a bit too big catch one's attention. Those eyes are full of mischief, rarely focusing on one thing for long, wandering and searching for the next thing that'll catch her attention. She's usually wearing face paint of some kind, although the specifics change according to her mood.
 
Burn scars lick up Hotdog's neck, along her arms, her back. A reminder of her initiation into the Halloweeners. She wears these symbols proudly, often rolling up her sleeves to expose her arms. What she does try to hide around strangers, however, is a bushy fox tail that she tries to keep concealed beneath her clothes. The results are mixed, especially when she gets excited.
 
=== Clothing ===
 
Hotdog has a limited wardrobe, but most of it is in orange and black. She tries to stick to baggy pants and large jackets to better hide her tail, and has developed a taste for the punky, scavenged post-apoc style common among Barrens dwellers.
 
===Matrix Persona===
 
Still struggling to figure out the Matrix, Hotdog sticks to her Renraku Sensei's default persona, a samurai lady wearing a kimono. One of her friends uploaded a jack-o-lantern pattern for the kimono, but that's the only bit of customization she's been able to add.
 
==Character Plot Hooks==
