Wynne Garland

Overview

Archetype

THE CAPTAIN/

Question// My mentor was one of the old exojocks, one foot on the voidship bridge and the other in the machine shop getting more metal put into him. He had an internal fab unit, primium armor and CNT muscle that let him chop steel girders in half with his fists. What they turned him into, hijacking all that and turning the systems against the man... it wasn't pretty. He's long-suffering now, and there's no question in my mind that I'd pull the trigger. I'm just not sure if I could bear to watch while I did it.

Primary// +3 Willpower, +1 Charisma, Leadership 3, Legendary Attribute (Dexterity)

THE ACE/

Question// When I was a little younger, yeah. I flew an old Cessna into a corporate tower during a mission and accidentally killed a high-ranking vampire... 'prince' was the title, think. All the attention from his friends and the DHS were a good excuse to leave Earth for a while.

Secondary// Pilot 3, Prodigy (Prodigy)

Background

Wynne Garland is the surviving scion of a once-respected family with strong ties to the Union, many of its members having become Electrodyne Engineers and Explorators in the Victorian heyday of the Union. The schism was damaging to the Union but powerfully so in microcosm for the Garlands, who lost much of their prestige and were forced to hunt their own rebellious members down. Wynne's parents served in and died at the destruction of Mus, leaving her in the care of a family friend until she was old enough to be enrolled in special enhanced-learning programmes run by the Void Engineers.

She enjoyed a remarkably normal childhood until then, and proved herself to be an exceptional and prodigious learner as a pilot trainee. She was skilled enough to skip ahead of her peers and received placement in an EDE crew

An incident where her mentor made a stand-off with a number of Agents, allowing her to escape with her life. An attempt to recover him from the Umbrood court he was held in a while ended in disaster, with her unit unharmed but her own body damaged terribly by the dimensional entity's abilities. The mistake was not considered her own due to unforeseen circumstances, so she was allowed to retain her newly promoted status in exchange for an assignment to a remote field team.

Devices 10//

VF-37 Void Phoenix 14// A cutting-edge transatmospheric void-capable superfighter. It costs about as much as a full wing of shuttles, cause twice times as much property damage on a sortie. Listed on the Talk Page.

Void Engineer Light Environment Suit 6// Arete 3, Primal Energy Storage 10/10. A skintight spacesuit that provides d2 Soak (d4 vs heat, cold and radiation) with a bypass dif of +3, keeps comfortable in a temperature range of -20C to 55C and full life support for vacuum, depths of up to 100m and immunity hot or cold when the helmet is deployed. Every 2 hours of life support costs 1 Primal Energy.

Enhancements 5// A retroviral cocktail designed to compensate for deterioration imposed by the Umbrood's 'curse'.

+2 Dexterity, +1 Strength/Perception/Wits

Genius 4// Wynne has an extremely powerful Eidolon, manifesting as moving war machinery and rider connected as they soar to battle. A superstitionist once told her it was a manifestation of the Chariot tarot, but she isn't convinced.

Influence 2// A high-ranking field commander, Wynne's authority is somewhat hindered by questions of her condition and a damaging family history.

Requisitions 5// Has strong ties to the general supply chain, in large thanks to connections through family friends from her parents' time in the Union.

Secret Weapons 5// Made some friends in Q Divison from a short stint as a test pilot, and never lost the habit of trying out new gear. Experimental tech is fun, even if it isn't necessarily useful.

Merits and Flaws

Merits

Legendary Dexterity// Add 1 to natural maximum for Dexterity and ignore a single rolled 1 on Dexterity-based rolls. All Dexterity-based rolls get 1 automatic success.

Pilot Prodigy// +1d Pilot rating.

Flaws

Echoes// Experiences physical effects when interfaced machinery is damaged, although relatively limited: Wynne experiences a twitch reaction when a vehicle is damaged and has all but her last -4 level filled with Stun damage from dump shock if it is destroyed while she's still connected.

Paraplegic// The result of a terrible curse by an Umbrood lord spurred on by one of the devious Residents. Cannot walk or effectively move lower body, confined to a wheelchair. It may be getting worse.

Genetic Flaws

Constant Hunger// Found eating something in order to abate high calorific needs, usually nutrient bars or high-energy shakes.

Kaleidoscope-Red Eyes// Has bright red eyes flecked with a number of colors that never quite look the same depending on the light.

Nervous Tick// Has an oral and hand fixation, needs to either chew or tap something with some sort of haptic feedback to remain calm.

Synaesthesia// Sensory experiences are mingled, leading to color and sound bleeding into one another.

Uncanny Reflexes// Fingers move unusually fast and dextrously.
