Character Information

Summary

Unkindness is a Raven shifter who commands a conspiracy of mundane ravens and realistic raven drones. He commands them as he flies within the swarm, and relies on the drones to do most tasks for him. Together they form an effective B&E team, able to break into buildings via unexpected routes and disable security so the rest of the team can get in. In situations calling for more violence, few people expect the creepy ravens watching them from above to unleash a volley of automatic fire on them.

Goals

Unkindness's mission is to rescue shifters from places where they are not given rights and smuggle the refugees into more civilized lands. He takes shadowrunning jobs to help raise money for that, as well as to take care of his shifter family and large flock of Ravens who live with him in his zeppelin.

Background

Unkindness was born in western Siberia 45 years ago, and moved to Yakut when it gained independence. He lived there until the recent civil war between the natives and the shifter-backed spirit ruler. As a shifter who wasn't willing to join the shifter army he fled with his family rather than risk reprisals from both sides. He headed east, since to the west lies a Russia which executes shifters on sight. He eventually ended up in Salish-Sidhe lands, where he learned about the oppression of shifters in UCAS territories and decided to do something about it. In the process he made contact with Ether, an Ancients lieutenant who has been getting him jobs and eventually suggested he apply to join Shadowhaven.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

Linguist - He has picked up many languages during his travels.

Educated - Though he has spent the majority of his life living in the wilds, in his decades he has been able to learn more about metahuman society than most shifters do

Negative

Severe Silver Allergy - Those new-fangled shifters with their silver chains need to get off his lawn Vindictive - Mundane ravens are known to hold grudges against humans who wrong them for years, and Hobgoblins are known to be vindictive. Unkindness is a perfect storm of the trait. Don't wrong him. Yakut SIN - Unkindness is still officially a citizen of Yakut, though he has no plans to go back.
