Background
Born in the midst of Lugh Surehand's revolution, one Adam Stone was brought into a world of change by a family all too determined to take a hand in their Tír Tairngire independence movement. Orphaned at a young age, thanks to a NAN military response to the aforementioned movement, Adam became a drifter resentful of the culture "his people" fought and died for. Odd jobs led to the man making his way into the Seattle branch of Lone Star Security Services, eventually working his way up to the rank of detective just before the Seattle government decided to not renew their contract with Lone Star. Unhappy that his new employer, Knight Errant, wished him to start from the bottom again, the elf took his meager pension and started a detective agency in the slums of Tarislar. Failing due to a number of factors (most prominently the local syndicate, The Laésa, not wanting a detective on their turf), Adam moved to San Francisco, took on the moniker "Farsight", and hit-up his contacts to begin his career as a Shadowrunner. After a number of years of varying success, Farsight managed to find enough people willing to recommend him into a larger more prestigious organization: The ShadowHaven.
Narrative Significant Qualities
- Astral Beacon - Ever since his awakening, Farsight has been all too obvious on the Astral. Something that often serves to the downfall of those not able to sling a spell in the slightest.
- Prejudiced (Specific, Biased) (The Laésa Syndicate) - Ever the person to hold a grudge, Farsight still has a chip on his shoulder about those that ruined his former business.

Shadow Community Table
| Threshold | Result |
|---|---|
| 2 | A rather pitiful excuse for a magical detective who used to operate out of Tarislar. |
| 3 | Farsight has made a name for his ability to "commune" with ordinary objects, finding hidden meaning where none is apparent. |
| 4 | An astral explorer and sage of sorts with far too many enemies and far too few friends. A former Lone Star employee. |

Appearance
Clothing
Farsight is rather scruffy-looking for a face. His suits often don't fit as well as they used to and his armored trench coat and street clothes are well worn.
Matrix Persona
Farsight's matrix persona is rather tame, looking like a cleaned-up version of himself.
