Background
Not much is known about this runner beyond his exploits in Seattle and the reputation for his unusual weapon skills that precede him from the London haven.
Brown-haired, brown-eyed, and darkly olive-complected, Courier stands at 1.8m. (5'10") tall and weighs roughly 68kg. (150lbs.) of lean muscle. This twenty-two year old human archery genius is tricking and innovating his way to becoming the fastest and most reliable transport in Seattle. A London sprawl transplant, Courier makes most of his money running goods - and people - for corporate executives. Many times it's documents that need to get where they are going without a hiccup, but he is building a reputation for being a man who can get whatever those who hire his services want while keeping it under the radar. He may not think much of the clients, but their nuyen spends the same as any other. With his low-tech profile and developing keen eye to discern authentic goods from forgeries, he is well on his way to becoming a decent fence and forger himself someday. The charisma and polish, well... That'll have to come later. He's more about fast moves than fast talk.
Goals
- Live fast.
- Be great.
- Profit.
- Die pretty.
Narrative Significant Qualities
| Aspect | Qualities | Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Limitbreaker | Acrobatic Defender + Aptitude (Archery) + Natural Athlete + High Pain Tolerance 1 + Pie Iesu Domine, Dona Eis Requiem | He swings through cities with the greatest of ease: not only does Courier substitute his Gymnastics + AGI in place of his usual WIL when utilising Full Defence, he also gains a +2 modifier to all Gymnastics and Running tests. Because he pushes his body to the limit every day like many elite athletes - "No Pain, No Gain!" - , his body never completely has time to heal. Because he is constantly striving for physical perfection, he starts every run with one spent box of Physical damage. This has given him the ability to endure discomfort and pain, which means that he ignores 1 box of damage per rating point when calculating wound modifiers. His experimentation with Aikido and Kyujutsu are elevating his already prodigious bowmanship talents. |
| Say Less | Aptitude (Archery) + Creature of Comfort (Middle) + Did You Just Call Me Dumb? + Signature | The downside of being top of class so young is acquiring the ego that goes with it. For Courier, that comes out in his silence. He's not a man of many words, and those he does say tend to come across as patronising, especially to veteran runners and Johnsons. He has a taste for the finer things in life, prefering a High lifestyle, but comfortable in a Middle one. Luxury brings too many eyes and too many people, and Low or below can't afford the amenities that help him stay in peak physical condition. Or cover the DocWagon subscription that safeguards him from any truly damaging incidents. He's so confident in his ability to outpace and outwit the competition or any opfors that his unusual arrowheads leave a very unique wound pattern: not that there are all that many archers loose in the city to begin with... Oh, well. They can't kill what they can't catch. |

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 in use. If you want to use them in unrelated to runs, please ask first.
| Aspect | Information | Related Run(s) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rose in Bloom | Arrowheads are unique enough for forensics, but Courier's are fashioned in a particular floral pattern that resembles a rose. This is true of everything he fires, but is particularly obvious when using a barbed arrow. His confidence in his abilities and the overall agility and stealth with which he operates mean he does not give much consideration to whether that might ever circle around in future. Best case, a new client is impressed by it, and worst case potential competition or enemies are intimidated by it. What could go wrong? |
