Sarya Banahatti was always a little bizarre. Their parents were wageslaves in India and while the birth of the tiny albino thing might have driven most families apart, the parents were further spurred to love and care for the nartaki. It wasn't easy either and it only got harder when they sprouted an extra pair of arms at age four. Their albinoism, nartaki-ness and variety of other health concerns made keeping them alive, happy and healthy was expensive. Their parents perpetually at work, they found themself along at home and their parents got them a nice datajack to connect to the matrix. Keep them entertained. Little did they know the child was about to meet the God of the Matrix. | |||
Sarya encountered the Deep Resonance. Or Deus. Or something. It was all kind of a blur. All that mattered was that for the time being they were free to make the matrix into their playground. If they had stuck around longer, they might have met others. May have joined a cult to Deus, may have done all sorts of interesting things. Unluckily, or perhaps luckily, almost a year after the little Sarya emerged as an otaku, the second matrix crash fell upon them like a tidal wave. | |||
The dumpshock was legendary. By all rights, they should not have survived. And yet, to their dismay, they lived on. The doctors would not let them die, try as they might. After years and years of expensive treatments and a rotating ensemble of drugs and doctors and scalpels, moving all the way to UCAS for specific doctors and treatments, they were declared fit to go. At some point their father had died and they would blame the financial stress their near death experience had put on the household. They spent the next few years going through the motions but nothing would ever come close to those few months of matrix freedom. | |||
When the existence of technomancers became common knowledge and then the existence of those otaku's who had re-emerged into technomancers, Sarya went down a rabbit hole. They were determined to re-emerge. They prayed to a dozen different Gods, went down every avenue of matrix research in the hope they could find that freedom again. One particularly dark evening, they followed down a shady lead to a dark place and wound getting jumped by some gangers, stabbed in the gut, robbed and left for dead. As they lay there on the ground, still stubbornly refusing to die, they considered their quest. Was it worth it? They crawled their way to docwagon. | |||

After a few years dawdling in the matrix, putting their skills towards hacktivist work, they got a call.

Summary
An albino Nartaki who was an otaku for a few months. After feeling the freedom of gliding through the matrix and having it stripped away, they are willing to use all their charm and all their decking skill to get it back.
Goals
Emerge as a technomancer
Infiltrate the Heavenly Host
Bring down the forces of oppression on the matrix

Sarya Banahatti was always a little bizarre. Their parents were wageslaves in India and while the birth of the tiny albino thing might have driven most families apart, the parents were further spurred to love and care for the nartaki.

Their parents perpetually at work, they found themself along at home and their parents got them a nice datajack to connect to the matrix. Keep them entertained. Little did they know the child was about to meet the God of the Matrix.
Sarya encountered the Deep Resonance. Or Deus. Or something. It was all kind of a blur. All that mattered was that for the time being they were free to make the matrix into their playground. If they had stuck around longer, they might have met others. May have joined a cult to Deus, may have done all sorts of interesting things. Unluckily, or perhaps luckily, almost a year after the little Sarya emerged as an otaku, the second matrix crash fell upon them like a tidal wave.

Appearance
A thin albino Nartaki. Their eyes are a soft red and their skin is a porcelain white. They are very attractive with sharp, almost fey-like features. While they do have four arms, they like to hide the lower two within their coat whenever possible. They style their hair into a choppy pixie cut and their dress is immaculate. They speak slowly, softly and deliberately. As a result of lifelong frailness and nearly lethal dump-shock, they walk with a cane.
Matrix Persona
Their persona is that of a masked humanoid in brilliantly white robes. The robes obscure their form underneath and the mask is in the shape of birds beak, similar to a plague doctors mask. It USUALLY has 4 arms but that number changes like the wind.
