Character Information

Summary

A young hacker who used cybernetics to look like a catgirl.

Goals

Keep her internet fame and create chaos.

Background

Neko was born into a working class family in Neo-Tokyo.  Her parents worked developing the code for computers for Renraku Computer Systems.  Due to her parent’s career, Neko got introduced to the world of the Matrix and hacking early on in her lifetime.  These skills would improve as her life went on. Her parents were able to get her into a good primary school using their own corporate SINs.  She found it hard to focus on school and the Matrix at the same time, and only got decent grades in her primary education.

Her excessive use of the Matrix took a toll on her.  Her social and physical skills started to deteriorate.  She never had many friends outside of the Matrix, and through a combination of excessive Matrix use and isolation, Neko started to become more and more eccentric.  She would often pull Matrix pranks, to such a point that it became part of herself. She started to become more inclined towards chaos as time went on, using her hacking experience to cause strife.  Neko would eventually start gaining fame and enemies because of her hacking. Her online moniker was Shironeko because of her white hair and love for cats. As her fame grew, Neko started to encapsulate her online persona more and more outside of the Matrix too.  Her personality started to get chaotic and cheery, and she got cosmetic enhancements to look more like her persona.

After graduating high school, she made plans to move to Seattle.  She never needed a higher education as she made a livable wage using the Matrix.  Despite this, she decided to get a job as a barista in a local coffee shop in order to have some spending money.  She met most of her contacts through her day job, including a Hon-zo Shimeda, and old Chinese man, who happened to be a fixer.  Once they learned of each other’s criminal activities, they became fast friends. Now Neko is a decker, taking shadowrunner jobs to stave off boredom.
