Overview

Sahalé Peterson maintains her surname - a Christian imposition on her ancestors - purely for the sake of making paperwork with the UCAS convenient. For the most part, she simply goes by Sahalé or 'White Owl.'

Taciturn about her past, Sahalé sits in the grey area between legality and the shadows. In polite society, she maintains a conventional business that networks local tour guide services with international travelers. But to the shadows, she is a peddler in false credentials, fake SINs, and plausible alibis. Rumor has it that she has government connections among the tribes comprising the Salish-Shidhe Council, who see merit in having a back channel of communication to Seattle's runner community. Regardless of the truth of the matter, she offers the services of both a fixer and a purveyor of illegal documents.

Appearance

Rarely seen in person, Sahalé maintains the matrix persona of a white owl with golden eyes and iron talons. In meatspace, she is a woman of middling height, brown eyes, a tawny complexion, and slightly wavy black hair. She enjoys the bold strokes of white and black Salish facepaint, but in her case the traditional charcoal and chalk have been replaced with the convenience and clean lines of more modern cosmetics. Her manner of dress frequently combines the formality of a business suit with the flourishes of bison bone jewelry, painted beads, and a hairpin decorated with a tuft of pale owl feathers.

Personality

Sahalé is brisk and well-spoken, employing the kind of confident diction one might expect of a keynote speaker at a business convention. She accepts the pretenses and norms of the shadow community only begrudgingly, preferring proper names instead of common jargon such as 'Johnson' and 'OpFor.' Regardless, she will use the appropriate terminology when operational security is an issue.

Sahalé will pay lipservice to the general anti-corp sentiment common among runners, but is ill-inclined to raise the subject of politics herself. Regardless of her true convictions, she will stand by her runners and advocate for them when the chips are down.

The woman has a strange affection for baseball and is an avid fan of the Seattle Mariners.
