Character Information
Summary
Maid assassin? Maid assassin. To be slightly more specific, Sasha (Bleach) is meant to be an infiltrator in the Solid Snake style - specializing in hard infiltration and flashy exits. Trained in the art of stealthy unarmed takedowns and able to fight spirits hand to hand, she's capable enough when keeping quiet so long as there's only one or two targets. She's no slouch with a sniper rifle, even if she doesn't have one now. And when it's time for things to go loud? A shotgun and a heap of grenades are enough to keep guards reasonably occupied while she escapes.
Goals
- Kill Gojira Gaki.
- Build a network of contacts to secure her position when she's out of the game.
- Figure out why she's still running when she could quit today.
Complete:
- Get a roof and a car. Then, get a better roof and a better car.
- Get good equipment - net cost is gonna be to the tune of 150k.
Background
Bleach was born someplace in Yakuza territory. She doesn't know where, when, or even who was involved. All she knows is that when she awakened early in her street rat life, she was picked up by the Kenran-Kai - who promptly began moulding her into a servant. First, by making her do mundane cleaning work, then doing various unspeakable things to ensure obedience. Only when her loyalty was believed to be assured was she then trained as an adept and assassin. Perhaps the story could have ended there, but while quietly cleaning, she overheard some dirty business of a rather important enforcer ( https://shreloaded.net/wiki/Gojira_Gaki ) - something he'd do anything to cover up.
Death was on the table, so she disappeared into Redmond, then fled to less hostile territory - a city where the Finnigans had prominence, not the Yakuza. Her skills proved worthy, and she'd have had a happy life in Dallas were it not for one small problem. The boss needed to discreetly check in on the family out in Seattle. Sasha's one of those he sent, but she has a couple of special tasks while also keeping deeper cover than the rest. That's partly for the sake of keeping another city's hitman (hitmaid?) under the radar, and partly to keep her from being in the gaze of the Yakuza - and keeping her from getting eyes on them. She'd happily kill as many of them as she can, and they'd surely be happy to claim the open bounty on her head.
So here she is, back in her hometown with the gang that wants to kill her and a family she can't call on for favors (yet). Her wetwork kit is lacking, her home is an abandoned bank vault, and her daily diet is best left unspoken about. So what do you do when you're a poor adept with loose morals, a chameleon suit, and a shotgun?
Well, that's obvious, isn't it?
Narrative Significant Qualities
- Vindictive: Does not let any perceived slight go, will pursue immediate revenge unless she holds herself back.
- Vendetta: Holds a deep hatred for the Yakuza, and the Kenran-Kai especially - foot soldiers, enforcers, collectors, doesn't matter, she wants them dead.
- Wanted: Knows something about Gojira Gaki - a Kenran-Kai enforcer - that he doesn't want spread around - something life ruining. She has a price on her head, put there by the Yaks.
- Made Man: Bleach is an assassin on call for the Finnigans. She will prioritize their interests if there is a conflict. About 20 hours of her week are spent being muscle if there's not something more important going on.

Symbols and Signatures
Matrix Search Table
| Threshold | Result |
|---|---|
| 1 | Bleach is an abrasive cleaner, used in... once through all of the junk results, searching for the runner eventually places her on her home turf in Dallas. |
| 3 | A similar face was passed around in Seattle's Yakuza circles a few years back - passed around in the hopes that some aspiring soldier or enforcer would kill her off. They did not, and the heat has cooled since. |
| 6 | Narrowing to searches related to the runner, she's appeared in pictures at multiple private Finnigan family events in Dallas, Texas. Some police records indicate her as a Person of Interest in ongoing murder investigations due to her mafia connections and skill as an adept. |
Shadow Community Table
| Threshold | Result |
|---|---|
| 1 | A relative unknown from Dallas. Rumouors from down south peg her as a fairly solid infiltrator who can hold her own in a fight. |
| 3 | A woman wanted by the Kenran-Kai for some incidents about five or six years ago. (Note: Yakuza members will have an easier time knowing about this.) |
| 5 | An assassin in the employ of the Finnigans in Dallas. Her presence in Seattle has curious implications for the family branch here. |

SINs
Katrina Solomon (Fake, Rating 4, CAS)
- Adept License (Fake, Rating 4)
- Bodyguard License (Fake, Rating 4)
Appearance
She's middling height, middling weight, tan-skinned and blue eyed. But - her contacts are crimson. In terms of mannerisms, she's always moving - looking around, eyeing decorations, looking at people and things and places. In spite of it all, she's a big smiler most of the time. Especially when it's time to clean up.
Clothing
Force of habit has made Bleach pick cleaner's clothes a lot of the time - it's not uncommon to see her in a janitor's jumpsuit, or the slacks and button-up of a corporate office cleaner. Or a maid outfit, which is her personal favorite, of course.
Matrix Persona
A magical broomstick, a la Fantasia, is Bleach's matrix icon.
Her matrix persona is a publicly available maid avatar, lifted from a popular gacha game she'd never admit to playing.
Character Plot Hooks
Here are characteristics of the character that GMs may take advantage of to add complications to runs, or to otherwise use when she's in use. If you want to use them in a run unrelated to Bleach, please ask first.
| Aspect | Information | Related Run(s) |
|---|---|---|
| Consequences Matter | I like consequences, because they lend weight to the game. Obstacles needing surmounting are what makes playing worth the while. Don't be afraid to create runs which aren't milkruns! This is, incidentally, why I pay minute attention to disguising and would like the effort made recognized. | This applies everywhere and isn't really tied to any specific run. |
| Contacts for Life | Contacts matter a lot. They're people. This is why Jenny hangs out with them in downtime and generally tries to do favors for them. | This applies everywhere and isn't really tied to any specific run. |
| Antiheroes | Jenny doesn't delude herself she's a hero(ine). She knows she's the anti- bit, breaking the law to put food on the table. She wants to be better than bad and do damage control with her crimes. The world is not black and white - we operate in the shadows of it. Feel free to introduce emotional oomph. | Of Gangsters and Tea Parties, for example. We were hitting the oyabun for the Finnigans and his daughter was an innocent, so Jenny worked around scaring her (or introducing her to the life). |
| Careful Around HMHVV | Jenny has the "be sympathetic if not given the reason not to, but extremely careful" around infected. She always wears a bangle from real wood (unless specifically stated otherwise). She wants to be respectful, but her healthy fear of HMHVV is a relevant character trait. Strain 1 feeding, for example, would probably freak her out big time - consider this if you want infected NPCs other than gnawers and non-feral ghouls, who can believably sustain themselves off graveyards, for example. | Saving Private Blackhawk is best, Pests for Progeny starting, You Ottern't Stay as an example of working with an infected PC too. |
| Children Are Innocent | As per her negative qualities, Jenny really doesn't want to see kids suffer, let alone contribute towards it. On all runs, expect her not to want to engage in plans which would put them at risk. She's also very likely to interact with child NPCs encountered. | Of Gangsters and Tea Parties, Groceries for Granny Tusk - in both cases, she tried to limit dangers to kids and enjoyed interacting with them. |
| Ren Tanaka | On her first job with the Finnigans, Jenny met - and, looks like, actually befriended - Ren Tanaka, the daughter of the Shotozumi-gumi oyabun. Ren knows her in her Aiko Arasaki SIN, a Shiawase SINner, and has one of the burners with a few digits of the commcode changed. It's up to Axiomshift if the girl fixed it and thus can contact Jenny when the burner is online. Frequently - on jobs, really - it isn't. | Of Gangsters and Tea Parties - really, the run explains it all. |
| Cute and Fascinating | She really enjoys learning about animals and magic, which bleeds into all sorts of runs. Sometimes, it's out of "forewarned is prepared". In other cases, it's a matter of fun interactions like with Geoff Montgomery XLII the Raccoon, Crazy Otter and so on. | Pests for Progeny freaks her out with invae and leads to research of magic despite being mundane. New Year's Thieves marks meeting Geoff (and interest in food). You Ottern't Stay kickstarted the partnership between Geoff and Crazy Otter (as well as increasing connections). |
| Cooking with Class | Deep down, Jenny really misses a normal home - which, with her negligent parents, she never had. Part of that normality manifests as interest in cooking, which she's trying to learn to do better, prompted by contacts like Gran NY, Geoff Montgomery XLII the Raccoon or Granny Tusk. Besides, tasty noms make excellent bribes! | Groceries for Granny Tusk would be the best example. New Year's Thieves would also count. |
| Pathfinder Multimedia | Jenny doesn't really have negative qualities associated with that anymore, but her time at Pathfinder Multimedia could maybe result in a slightly harder time if you somehow made Mark Pierce make a comeback. In the flicks, she's effectively impossible to recognize, because she would be an alien sidekick in full makeup, with ware to boot, but she cannot conceal her aura. (Poor mundies, us.) I don't mind hardships I can overcome, so if you want her past to return to haunt her, why not? Saying something OOC beforehand is very welcome, but if it makes a lot of sense, I won't whine if you don't either. | None yet, really. |
