Example CS: [hider=Edge] Name: Sakarushi Hirotaka Street name: Edge Age: 29 Gender: Male Appearance: Edge is heavily built, even for an ork. He has pale green-white skin, and is very tall. His tusks are prominent, and he is completely bald. He has cut scars on almost every visible part of his face. When not on a run, he dresses simply due to a combination of financial problems and personal preference, preferring to emphasise his build and never hide his ace despite the scars. Psychological description: One word. Aggressive. Edge talks tough because he is tough. He is prejudiced towards elves, sees them as dandelion-eaters. Even if one proves him wrong, he'll do little more than begrudgingly repect them and think of them as the exception that proves the rule. Even so, there is one kind of person to him that's worse than an elf - a pretender. He hates it when a human, who has had the good fortune not to be an elf, tries to look and act like one. After all, if you're weak [b]and[/b] stupid, what good are you? Edge is also somewhat self-destructive - he seeks death, but sees this desire as weak, so tries to hide it. Instead, he takes huge risks in the hope that they will be his last. His preferred weapon is the monofilament whip, a famously dangerous weapon both to the target and the user. The cause of his self-destructiveness has come from psychological damage after a painful run-in with a rat shaman while hiding out in the sewers - also the cause of his facial scars. Notes: Suffers from clinical depression but is unable and unwilling to get help. Low-light vison.

He spent most of his time desperately trying to get by, earning scraps of money using his considerable strength to perform manual labour. His family had been killed in a racist attack when he was barely nine years old. He survived, barely. As a teen, he quickly realised that as an ork, he had no chance getting a legal job that was worth the drek he’d be paid for it. He started pit brawling for cash. He was good at it, until one late night he got a knife in the back from a rival of his. The only reason he survived was because they thought he hadn’t. He woke up the following morning with blood covering the alleyway. That morning was spent stumbling to the hospital, before collapsing at its doors. He decided pit brawling wasn’t for him. But his story hadn’t gone unnoticed – it even hit local news. It wasn’t long before a representative of Shiawase Corporations turned up, with a lucrative offer. They wanted him as something of an attack dog, to sabotage other megacorps so they could get ahead. Something like being a shadowrunner, actually, but having a megacorp backing you and a reliable paycheck. For Edge, this was too good to be true. He was successful. He made a lot of money, and had military-grade gear and cybernetics installed courtesy of his employers. But it seemed like the world truly did hate him, because after a few years he discovered a corporate secret – the kind most people would be killed over. He already knew this, and that he’d have to go underground. He wiped his SIN, moved his gear to a safehouse and did everything he could to wipe his trail, effectively dropping off the planet. This leaves him in an interesting situation – he’s been living off his earnings since he left Shiawase, spending as little as possible and generally using what the Underground taught him. He has high-grade skills and weaponry, and no SIN. In other words, he is the perfect start towards becoming a shadowrunner. Non-contact relations: Non-existent. Edge couldn’t take that risk, plus he’d only get them killed if he was found out. [/hider]
