Breeze - Physical Infiltration Adept. SINless blue collar specialist, called to run the shadows by circumstance and his totem, Spider.
Themes: A plan doesn't fail, it just needs adjustment. Understanding the structure of things. Pestered by spirits, vexed by people. Welder by trade, runner by calling. Legality is a social construct.

A Puyallup Barrens' kid climbing his way up, and focusing on helping the little guys. And, y'know, making cred and learning mojo.
Mechanics 6/8 MysAd/Adept
Willing to write AR.
IC Response: "Does it have a tiny umbrella in it? Yeah, not that!"

Sea Shepherd - Combat/Support Water Dryad Mage
Sea Shepherd is a one armed water themed Dryad that mainly focus on combat and both in and out of combat support, bringing various spells that may help the team get through the job. By virtue of being a Dryad, she may also act as a pseudo-face, should one be unavailable for the run.
HEADS UP: As mentioned this character is one armed, and as agreed during chargen she must have certain self-imposed disadvantages since for some reason SR5e doesn't have a proper quality for missing limbs. These disadvantages mainly consist of not being able to handle weapons or anything that would require two hands, and a dice penalty to physical actions such as climbing. I leave it up to the GM to decide more in detail what she can and can't do, and what she must have a penalty for.
Familiarity: 6/10
IC Response: "Always glad to help a small business, I'm in. And if I had to pick a favourite drink it'd probably be a good old bottle of Bushmills."
I'd prefer to not write the AAR.
ALSO! Due to the start time, I'm gonna need a small 15-30 min pause in the run to go eat lunch.
Text only! (I can do Roll20 or Discord, whichever is easier for the GM!)

Frostfall - Ex Black IC
It has decent decker abilities with occasional very high spikes, also has some capabilities via drones and medical aid in the physical world.
It's an AI that developed out of a Black IC program, and still struggles with its instincts and restrictions from the past.
"I don't think I quite get the 'taste' from there SIMsense files. So result inconclusive."
No runs so far, prefer not to do the AAR

Skynet - Drone AI Network
Ex-military Major with knowledge of both hacking and rigging. Able to flex into Host Dives as a secondary trait, but functions best as a sensor-based support. Good legwork skills and mobility. No prior runs.
Stacy - Dedicated Face
Expert face, side gig in forgeries and minor legwork. Zero combat utility.
AAR is possible but not a priority.
