I had made a query about a similar possibility for Heather from the GM. However it was not granted because we were all supposed to start in the same situation. Now there's no way anyone could have known such because I asked via PM. But basically everyone came from the prison and the whole thing is new for them. There isn't supposed to be contact with the outside because they're hated by the public and it's a secret government sanctioned project. And even they aren't really pleased about it.

Well I assumed the GM was pretty much okay with it since even the bio (I looked over it again and yeah its iffy)  basically said she was a sort of Government contractor. Then again I suspect that the moment Shelly decides to not work with them they'll force her to. Still the GM should probably look over the character again and explain Shelly's role in this a bit more. I can sort of buy it if she's essentially unknowingly on a very tight leash and the realization of that will be very difficult to stomach.
