Overview

Colette graduated from MIT&T with a fantastical record of beating the odds given the lack of a stipend. Despite having to jury rig handcrafted experiments with second hand equipment, her PhD about exotic particles forming in alcheras simultaneously earned her several noteworthy accolades in manatech research. Despite this great start to her academic career, post-grad work became a horrifying struggle for survival. Too proud to go back to flipping burgers in the local fast food joint and fighting a shrinking job market, Cross started looking into underworld hosts for other sources of funding. What started as simple economics help for a fee for small time gangs evolved into part-time fixer operations for street runners. Now Dr. Cross has a second life eating her evenings away, keeping an eye on job boards and bounty tickers for the few runners she chooses to maintain. But at least she has secured funding for her next few research projects!

GM Notes

  • Colette doesn't work as a fixer for characters with highly murderous or destructive qualities. Superhuman Psychosis, Combat Monster and other similar qualities will prevent a runner from taking her as a contact.
  • Note 3

Aspects Description

Aspect Description
Wary of Heat While she's happy to get people in contact with their future employers, the guts to arrange hot pick-ups and other nova-hot live situations are beyond her composure. Cross won't be of much help in extracting runners out of heated police chases and similar crises, though she can organize rescues afterwards if necessary.
Above Aspect pending approval. Please notify Thematics.
Academic Increased networking among other individuals in STEM fields.
Physicist A bonus on Networking and Knowledge checks directly involving physics and communities of physics research.
Downtowner Cross has better odds of getting in touch with someone in Downtown as opposed to other districts of Seattle.
Federal Bonus on Networking with people working with or for the UCAS government or its various organizations. This does not apply to corporate subcontractors.
Excel-ent Cross gains a bonus on anything related to economics, administration, bureaucracy and can review data related to them for runners.
Guest Pass She's not the best at it, but Cross can get runners visitor's passes into academic facilities with restricted access. This only applies on the government level, not megacorporate facilities.
