*Wow, is THAT not going to happen... sorry for the interruption kids, but if anybody is going to be spilling all my proverbial beans and baring my secrets to the Matrix, well, then my goodness is it going to be me:*

*<- That's me right there, everybody's fav Dwarf Decker (sorry D-Icer :P ).*

*Gosh, now that I've got the mic, I don't even know what to say about myself. I'm a Dwarf, I'm of an age that I no longer mention what that age is, I'm single despite how self-evident my cuteness is, I love dogs but I own cats, etc etc*

*But I suppose what you all REALLY want to read about is my illustrious professional career. Especially the juicy bits that don't show up on my regular identity's CV (and yes, I do still have the SIN I was born with and no, you will never find out what that is. Trust me, better deckers than you have tried).*

*My early life is actually pretty boring up until the late '50's, blah blah Childhood, blah Collage blah Valedictorian blah blah Corporate Job blah, ugh, just all the usual things. I took all the right tests, dated all the right, boring, kinds of girls, made all the right career moves. Until, very suddenly I didn't. What happened then was none of your damn business, but the upshot (or is that 'fallout') is that I was no longer in a Corporate Job, and definitely no longer in a position to do all the right things. And thank goodness for that. Doing all the wrong things has been way, Way, WAY more fun*;)

*Now for the increasing number of you shadowkiddies who don't remember it, the late 2050's was kind of a real boom in the shadows, between* *Chicago becoming Bug City, the Election of ‘57 and a couple of other lamentable but profitable disasters it meant there was more work in the shadows than anyone could handle. It really was a 'runner's market. Ah, the good ol' days. Anyway, to capitalize on the sudden glut of opportunity, I teamed up with the legendary Troll Shaman Si-Te-Cah (Wolf keep you buddy, you're missed) and we gathered a little team you MIGHT have heard of, the original "Five Stars”. Besides Si-Te-Cah and myself, the others of the original five were Mjolnir, the big blond teddy bear himself as our muscle, the beautiful and dangerous Puck as our, well, other muscle, and my then-main-squeeze Roar as our wheels (although that wasn't to last, either as our rigger or as my main squeeze, but that's a whole other story that we don't have space for...)*

*Now, I don’t want to brag, but I’d like to think we made a pretty good team and we seem to have done all right in the Rep department. In fact, while I'm shucking the midwestern self-effacing thing and blowing my own horn, I was right in the middle of it. The big Dakotah Financial  break-in of '60? Me. Hunting down those three Shekinah Agents in the TCTA  database before they could turn GridGuide into a kamikaze machine in '65? Also me. Oh and while we're at it, you ever notice that the Humanis Policlub just couldn't seem to keep their matrix presence up and running during the election of '68? C'est Moi. Although that last one was for free.*

*But all good things must come to an end, and after nearly twelve years. Si-Te-Cah was starting to get on in age for a Troll and decided to go home to the Ute, Ricer (our last Rigger) got out while the getting was good, and last I heard was running street races in Kowloon, Mjolnir had saved up his pennies and went into semi-retirement, Puck is doing... well, whatever  Puck is doing these days. And as much as I loved my time with the Stars, I wanted more time to devote to my other pursuits...*

*...a surprising number of which are ACTUALLY legit. No. Really. They are. I do pro bono matrix site setup for charities that I like (big fan of Mothers of Metahumans, BIG fan), and making money the legitimate way, through stocks and currency trading (its not as honest as the nuyen I used to make shadowrunning, but there's an awful lot more of it). I also do, well, let's just say I'm my own Ms. Johnson these days and if I take a job, or make a job, its because I want to, not because someone's paying me, and that means its going to be done MY way. I won't work for you, but, If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find me, maybe you can work WITH: CloudBurst.*
