==Biography==
Part of the administrative staff at UNATCO, Shannon is much more than meets the eye. She is actually a talented thief who managed to gain illicit access to the armory, stealing goods and passing them to UNATCO troopers like Kaplan to sell as "spoils of war".Shannon: " Oh! JC!"
JC Denton: " Carry on with your banking. I'm just taking one last look at the old place. Amazing, if you think about it, all the hours I spent dreaming about working here... all the heroic fantasies, when really this place is just a cinderblock bunker with carpet."
Shannon: " My banking... Oh yes! Never mind me... Go ahead and escape. I won't pull the alarm!"
JC Denton: " Something wrong? Really, as long as you stay out of the way, I don't have any reason to hurt you."
Shannon: " Okay! I admit it! I'm the one who's been stealing from HQ! It was me all along. Kaplan, the false floor in Alex's office, everything that's missing... It was me!"
JC Denton: " I'm the last person who's gonna bust you for stealing. What'd you take? Anything I could use?"
Shannon: " I don't know... You sure you can keep it hush-hush? I found a few scrambler grenades I was gonna give Kaplan -- good against bots, you know -- but you could take 'em . I have three, 1250 each."
Her stash is beneath the floor in Alex Jacobson's office. Shannon is eventually caught, thanks to Simons' involvement: After identifying Tech Sergeant Kaplan as an illicit dealer in firearms, he interrogater the trooper, who quickly fingered Shannon as his supplier. JC Denton: " By the way, I found out who around here is the thief."
Sam Carter: " There's more to that story than you know. Simons got involved; Kaplan squealed like a pig. That woman Shannon's got a surprise waiting for her in the morning. Very convenient for us. Take what you need."

Shannon can be first encountered in the women's restroom during the first visit to the headquarters. If she spots JC in the restroom, she will complain to Manderley, who will tell JC to "stay out of the ladies restroom" during JC's first debriefing. After JC returns from the Warehouse District, Shannon can be found outside of the UNATCO restrooms speaking to a trooper. She will be terse with JC if she spotted JC in the restroom earlier. Otherwise, she will be friendly.

JC can reveal Shannon's involvement to Sam Carter, although he is already aware of it by that point and will also say that Shannon is about to face consequences for her actions.
