Overview
Northwind has kept a pretty tight lid on her origins, but she's been floating around the UCAS runner scene for years. Working mainly as a pilot, Northwind ran blockades, smuggled goods, pulled her teammates to safety, and well, sometimes inflicted the opposite. She's a talented rigger, with a proven history of skill and cool thinking under pressure. She's also a rigger who's entirely lost her taste for being shot at. Using startup capital from her jobs and the plethora of connections she'd acquired, Northwind changed her line of work. Now, she sells gear to other riggers, keeping connected and keeping all of her blood where it's supposed to be.
Notes for GMs

- Blatantly thinks that pilots are better than riggers focusing on the ground.
- She's happy to give professional advice if people want it. It's all one community.
- Northwind still flies a lot. She just doesn't do it for J's anymore.
