Overview

A Draco Foundation artificer who created Mo shlighe fhèin and Ryan Mercury's staff. She's a lover of good drinks, magical items, and trash trids. But a highly accomplished and competent magical crafter and talismonger. While she grew up in Tir na nOg learning the Path of the Wheel, she left when she awakened as an Eastern Drake and decided to travel beyond the fog wall to better understand her powers.

Aspects Description

Aspect Description
Draco Foundation Loyalist Kiri owes the Draco Foundation a lot. If you contact her during a run and use the information or gear provided to work against them, roll a Loyalty check. If it fails, she immediately burns you. If it succeeds, you owe her a chip to re-earn favor with her.
Everybody gets one. Only one Kiri gets bored working on the same things over and over. Once she has made a focus of a given type for a character, trying to get her to make a different focus of the same type requires the Availablity Roll to be treated as 4 higher. (This does not count for upgrading an existing focus, but will for replacing a lost focus)
Build-your-own Most of the resources that Kiri has access to are earmarked for existing or future projects for the Draco Foundations. If you want a focus or imbuement above Force 3, you will have to provide your own reagents to her. This also helps give the focus a personalized touch.
Awakened Drake Kiri is an Eastern Drake wearing an elven metahuman form most of the time.
Elf on the Dragon's path Having grown up in Tir na nOg and dedicated herself to the Path of the Wheel then undergoing Dracomorphesis, Kiri can create foci attuned both to Path and Draconic Magic
Want some ink while you're here? Kiri is a talented tattoo artist in her (limited) free time and can act as an instructor for Artisan (Tatoo) for a price of 500 nuyen per skill rank. She also gains +2 to identify tattoo styles or artists
Foci Afficionato An expert in foci of all kinds regardless of tradition Kiri can identify types of foci and force from a quicksilver photograph or a detailed image of the item
Once More with Focus Kiri doesn't like to fail in her work. If you fail to gain a focus of any type (other than power or weapon foci) when going through Kiri, you may reroll the Availability Test once and must take the second result. If you do so, Kiri gets +1 chip on you. You may not use this ability while you owe a chip to Kiri for any reason
I know who has that! Need a rare magical compound or hard-to-find formulae? Kiri has connections across the world to various talismongers and awakened vendors. Even if she doesn't have it, she can connect you with someone who does or knows where you can find it in the wild
This may hurt... Want a drink? Kiri has a healthy appetite for alcohol and keeps some nearby at all times. If you need help identifying something or just need something to party, she can give you recommendations
Qi Foci Specialist Thanks to her tattoo work and magical prowess, Kiri is especially adept at making Qi foci tattoos
Leaving a Legacy Kiri is both naturally talented and well trained in the art of artifice that she is able to create foci that deserve names. +2 when creating Foci at Force 7 or higher
Disenchanting, for the right price Need to get rid of some form of magic or foci in a hurry? For 2000 nuyen per level of Force, Kiri can perform disenchanting services.
Vault's in the back While not as adept in Alchemy as her other craft, Kiri is known to experiment from time to time, and can provide preps below force 5 for 1000 nuyen per point of force.
