Character Information

Summary

Erika is an attack Technomancer through and through. All her life has been spent beating up Matrix bullies and Corpo goons that go after her. This has earned her online fame as someone who stands up to the G Men, and sticks up for her kind throught the world.

Goals

Erika's biggest glaring fault is experience. Growing up she had no real education as a Technomancer. Her hacking skills are on point, but the other aspects, including dealing with sprites, needs some work.

Background

Erika is the orphaned daughter of SEAL Third Class Daniel Rawlings of the CASN, and Lieutenant Patricia Rawlings of the CASAF. Her mother died in an incident involving undercover MCT shock troops off the coast of England, who were there to assassinate a high ranking Royal Navy Officer. They failed, but casualties on both sides were large. Erika was 4 at the time.

She was 9 when her father died. It was an incident on a cargo ship in the Atlantic. His team was sent to investigate a suspicious vessel that had gone dark. The vessel turned out to be crawling with Strain III infected. The whole team was KIA except for the lead SEAL and their Commander. This lead SEAL, we know as Katherine Tyler. Coincidence...?

Turns out not. Kate is an old family friend. Erika doesn't hold her responsible for what happened. She knew the last thing Kate would ever want was for someone to get hurt. It was a colossal fuck up, and Kate wears it still to this day. In fact, Erika's desire to stick up for others came from Kate's values.

Growing up she bounced from gang to gang, learning the tricks of the trade that kept her alive. Ready to move into the adult world, she seeks to tread her own path into the Shadows.

Erika moved out to Seattle for the thrills. She heard it was the Wild West, and she wanted a piece of it.

She spends most of his time browsing the stacks at the Seattle Public Library. She spends her off time cutting a (virtual) rug at Dante's. She spends her time in the Shadows investigating leads, and finding Corporate Deckers to beat up.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

Better on the Net(Firewall) - All warriors need their shields, even in the Matrix

Common Sense - Good to have, especially when evading G Men

Instinctive Hack - Easy to act fast when moving at the speed of thought.

Online Fame - As an elf Erika is pretty unassuming. But on the Trix? People know her. Her friends know she is there to help, and her enemies best stay out the way.

Paragon (Shooter (The Soldier)) - Erika's sword to match her shield. The Shooter guides her, mentors her, and shows her the way.

Shoot First Don't Ask - Even in the meat you have to be quick. Reacting fast has saved her life more than once.

Unique Avatar - A blue-haired Pixie that sports a sword and shield is bound to turn some virtual heads.

Negative

Down the Did You Just Call Me Dumb? - Because if you did, she'll show you she's more than just a pretty face.

Force of Chaos - Erika is a bit wild. She doesn't mind working with others, but tends to think her own way.

Lack of Focus - ADHD is present, even in the Sixth World.

PSC Thrill Seeker - Of course an offensively oriented person such as her would be a thrill seeker. The bigger the challenge, the better!

SINner(CAS) - Erika was born and raised in Charleston, SC

Taint of Dissonance - Sometimes pulling at the corners of the Matrix opens up paths to darker places. Dig too far, look too deep, and sometimes something looks back.

6 A thorough search ties the name to the famous Persona Stardust, hacker extraordinaire.

Shadow Community Table

Threshold Result
1 A newcomer. Comes out of the CAS, unproven hacking skills.
3 A young elf. She can do very sus things in the Matrix. A practiced eye might tie these things to possible Technomancer abilities.
5 The name and face are tied to the famous Stardust. A hacker with a heart of gold for her friends, and a nightmare for her enemies. Further events might prove that whole Technomancer theory.

SINs

Real - CAS

Fake R4 - UCAS - Anna O'Rourke

Appearance

Tattoos and Scars

No scars, but she has a memorial tattoo consisting of a SEAL Trident, and the 160th SOAR emblem on her left shoulder with the names of her parents and the dates of their deaths.

Clothing

Typical college girl stuff. Loose jeans and hoodies, scarves, basic accessories. Stuff to blend in. Typically wears her hair up in a ponytail

Matrix Persona

As nondescript as her physical presence is, her matrix persona is quite the opposite. Few who meet the red hot hacker Pixie Dust ever forget her. A literal sprite on the Matrix, her chosen form may hit a little too close to home, but she has never been worried. Few know her outside the Matrix, and in there she is just another Persona.
