Character Information

Summary

Othered by society, Hibiscus was a gal just trying to find her place. Now she's let herself become a monster, and deals constantly with the banshee hunger and the feline urge to maim.

Goals

Survive, pay rent, become rockstar, SURVIVE

Background

Broad strokes:

Born in raised in SK labs

Hated that, got out of dodge as soon as she could (like 15y.o.)

Realized once out of the lab that most of the world was not like her

Scared of that

Huge feelings of being an 'other' to society

Slummed it up for a while, or broke into people's houses to sleep and eat

RENT IS A THING??

Leaning into what her body do, became a security consultant

Got better at talking to people as time went on


Hobbies include reading young adult romance, napping, watching fights (real or on TV), bar hopping, keeping fresh on her martial arts


But these were the broad strokes of things before Hibiscus joined the Haven. Things have changed significantly since then, and many would argue for the worst. Joining the Haven in October 2083, Hibiscus went on her first run and met two new friends in Cleaner Cleaner and Fluster. Clearing that she was able to meet the Haven proper on the IRC channel, where she first met Swerve and things changed for Hibiscus forever. Hibiscus took shaping her self identity to the physical, turning herself into a catgirl. She found herself still othered by those around her, despite the efforts of Mojo Joe. She longed for a community the newly-made catgirl felt she could only find with the infected. In hindsight, it wasn't the longest choice Hibiscus had wavered on. She had been talked down from joining the Triads which she had planned for years. Was it a lovestruck isolated girl or an earnest yearning for community? Who could say? Either way, she took the plunge. On January 10th, 2084 Hibiscus took actions that would change her life forever, and she let herself be turned by Heart of the Tempest. The following weeks faded from her mind as she turned from feral banshee to feral cat as she scrambled to find her sanity again. But now she's coming back - a new, hungrier woman.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

Prototype Transhuman

Watch the Suit (oi I payed for that, don't get me in shit!)

First Impressions (sheltered, but she's charming.)

Negative

Wanted (SK, 75k)

Albinism 2

Uneducated (Gods is she sheltered)

Insomnia (basic)

[SECRET PLAYER NEGATIVE]

Cattitude: Due to a slapjob of transgenics, Hibiscus now has chronic catbrain! The more cat she becomes, the harder her feline instincts are to ignore. Currently, a threshold [3] composure test to ignore! Red dots, catnip, and mice beware.

1 Images of her hanging around assorted bars around Seattle, dressed either real nice or real shit.
3 A wanted poster issued by Saedor Krupp. Doesn't say why - just the price.
6 A well shot photograph of Hibiscus at Crazy Eight's Casino

Threshold Result
1 Chica's prone to breaking into places she shouldn't for a nap. Bit of a nuisance like that.
3 Apparently one of the many research projects to design the next leg of humanity, learned Carromeleg along the way too.
5 She's been tryna get real cozy with the 88's lately. Wonder if it's cause of the bounty or somethin' else.


SINs

Hyacinth Knight - Restricted Augmentations license, Licensed Security Consultant - of no relation to Damien Knight, it's a semi-common name please stop asking

Appearance

A petite young woman, Hibiscus is absolutely tiny aside from her augmentations. Among her most defining features are the very tired blue cat eyes that glare with an exhausted disdain at the concept of daylight, and her bright white hair that "Makes [her] look like an anime character" as she's been told time and time again. Furthering this, recently she has received transgenics that have given her snow leopard ears and the ability to purr, as well as a two-meter-long exceedingly fluffy snow leopard tail.

Clothing

She's rocking the monochrome at most times, either with her black and white custom cane, her black synthleather catsuit and white hoodie, or a slinky black bodycon dress done by Mortimer of London paired with an Argentum coat over her shoulders. When she dresses up, she dresses UP. She's rarely seen without her shades in the meatspace.

Matrix Persona

It's either that of a small white rabbit, not even anthropomorphic - just a bunny; or of her in her white suit without her glasses. Her eyes look a lot less tired in the 'trix, too.
