Overview

Elle Palms, originally a Tampa local, is trained in everything an Aware can do, but can also take care of herself (and others) in meatspace and on the Matrix. For the last three years, she worked in North Beach, Miami, Caribbean League, as a freelance Aware security contractor. Difficult to baffle or otherwise catch unaware, she mixes assensing with screening people socially, but she's no slouch with a heavy pistol either. In March 2084, her contract at the University of Washington in the capacity of an Astral Combat trainer for undergraduate students begins. Her seer capabilities can be found useful for the lighter touch, which she definitely possesses.

Aspects Description

Aspect	Description
Working Hours	A healthy balance between work and private life is paramount if you don't want to burn out. Elle doesn't, so she tunes out of business matters outside of normal PST office hours (9-5, Monday through Friday). Add +5 to the threshold of her contact availability test if trying to contact her at other times (very early in the morning, late in the evening, on the weekends).
Aware Freelance Security Contractor	Aware, she can see the astral, although she lacks more flashy abilities. This translates to a focus for what she can do. With light betaware she saved up for and purchased at the EVO Miami clinic, she maintains a healthy score of 4 on Dumas's Scale, IG2 (Masking, Flexible Signature). She trains her limited capacities vigorously: Assensing, Astral Combat and Arcana receive +2.
Seer	Elle is a seer, which means attuning to the astral takes a complex action for her, but she knows Psychometry and Sensing innately. And she takes advantage of both in her work.
Profiler	She believes in the metahuman element being the weakest link in security, so she pays minute attention to social behavior, including profiling potential security breaches (a la the Profiler quality). +2 to Perception, Computer and the Influence skill group.
A Dedicated Performance	She likes to dance, yes, but catching a suspect lying is even more rewarding. +2 to the Acting skill group.
Pretty Pistol	Semi-automatics, especially her heavily modded Savalette Guardian, for her - nonlethal ammo, but she knows damn well how to use them. Pistols (Semi-Automatics) as well as the Stealth skill group are at +2.
Security Procedures	She's done her homework and keeps improving. Knowledge skills related to security, especially the magical kind, such as Law Enforcement Procedures, Security Procedures, Security Design, Small Unit Tactics and Magic Theory are at +2.
