Introduction
"Is this a game to me? People always sneer when they ask that, like it's a bad thing. But think about it. If this is all 'real', then the threats are all real too. The corporations really do control everything; the Technocracy really does dictate most of how the world works, and the odds really are overwhelmingly against us. But if this is a game, then those are all just... obstacles. They're the bosses that we're meant to beat. No, it won't be easy; every worthwhile game has challenge. But it's meant to be possible. Yes, this is a game to me. And I'm going for the high score."

Aster is a young woman, a 20-something MIT dropout, freelance coder, and game streamer. Her first goal in Detroit was to find her mentor, and now she's here to help, to "fix" Detroit and put local reality back on track.

Stereotypes
Mage We are the PCs here, the ones who can move and shake this setting. But more important, we have the change to break out of the simulation entirely and find the really real world.
Werewolf Terrifying. I know they're not the bad guys, but they could tear me limb from limb if they got upset. And they get upset a lot. I keep my distance. -

Contacts
  • Jae: My mentor, the reason I came here... and now my girlfriend. How did I get so lucky?
  • Riley: The first friend I made here. Strong and devoted.
  • Maya: I've, uh, learned a lot from her.
  • Amane: Great to talk nerdy with, and she has such a cute rabbit.
  • Alexandra: One of the bosses. I keep expecting her to demand to talk to my manager.
  • Emma: One of the bosses. Good for nerding out with, but I swear, she needs to be more confident.

RP Hooks
  • Techie: She's a freelance coder and web-designer, and she can work hardware damn well, too. Need some IT?
  • Underworld Ties: She has Vice Lord contacts, and she's known as a skilled hacker for the occasional side-gig.
  • Mage: Yes, she's Awakened.
  • Virtual Adept: Specifically, she's a reality-hacking type of Awakened, who thinks the whole world is a game.
  • Here to Help: She plays like she's a rogue out to rip up the establishment, but she cares more than she lets on. If you or someone you know is in trouble, then see if she might be able to help.
