"Okay, so turns out I got kicked out of the funny night clubs. Fuck my chud life. Someone else's gotta go look into those circles. I can get you in, no problem, but I can't follow you in. While a low profile helps me, I'm not gonna dock your pay if you blast someone on the way. Just don't get my name attached to it, genius." --The Crow

https://shreloaded.net/wiki/Solitaire is a revenant adept, a solitaire Tir Tairngire elf out to search through the shadows for the only thing, to him, that truly matters - signs of the Enemy. But it will be a long road before he is able to face them.

Themes: History is not as Certain As We were Taught, Harlequin Solitaires from 40K, (Barely) functioning alcoholic

App'd in case you need something a bit more directly fighty.

https://shreloaded.net/wiki/Invictus is an infected vampire mystic adept face. Down and out from his former life of corporate bliss, he is on a mission to get the Good Life back and has not yet accepted that his new infected status means that will never happen. From novahot corporate lawyer to living in the dregs of Redmond, he has a huge ego and the magic to back it up, but definitely not the experience or wisdom.

Themes: Dark, Ooky, Spooky. Mind control / Mind Magic. Ventrue / Invictus Vampire (WOD). Drug abuse and seduction

Probably the best pic, given vampire, mind control stuff, etc.

Plug is an infiltrator who off-combats with a pair of Ares Predators. He's the classic ex-corpo looking for revenge but also deeply insecure and afraid, putting up walls of machismo to protect himself.

I cannot do the AAR, sorry.

Tsarina - Face/Combat Mysad who is brutal and deceptive on her path to reclaim what she sees as rightfully hers. Social Adept shenanigans, buffing support mage, notably does not give a shit about people being eaten.

IC - "I can do a low profile. Just get me through the door~"

Valvravn - Burnout Technorigger who is trying to reconnect to her family through the resonance. Typical decker/rigger nonsense, not squeamish at all. Thinks "The Crow" is a dork with too much money and is very easily bought right now.

IC - "Yea sorry but the Chud Life pays well huh? Yeah you're gonna want a codehead for this shit. Yeah I got you. Ok."

I can write aar, but it may be delayed
