First glance? Adler doesn't exactly match the Virtual Adept stereotype. Okay, so she's usually wearing something horribly unstylish like a graphic t-shirt and cargo shorts, or worse, just her pajamas. Her hair's a mess, and the concept of makeup is utterly foreign. Not THAT out of the ordinary, so far. The weird thing is she's actually kind of hot; a little under six feet tall, a toned, athletic build, and I guess she has boobies or something. When she puts some effort into appearance, she more than stands out in a crowd, but that doesn't happen very often. Oh, and sometimes she wears a suit. How weird is that? I thought that was a technocrat thing.

Why do you care about what Adler's life was like before she Awakened? She's got a shitty dad, no mom, and no friends. Ever. School? No friends. Work? No friends. Personal life? She doesn't have one, and never has. The thing you can say about her is she's clever, and likes to show it. That's how she got into computers, and hacking specifically. It's not about getting money (which she does) or the feeling of control and power when she doesn't have either in real life (also true). It's about proving she's smarter than whoever's security she's annihilating or fixing (depending on who pays better; she has to make a living, right?), and then suddenly she DID have a friend. There's this girl, Nemissa. Occultist, hacker, the only person Adler's met that can come close to matching her. Something something strange feeling called 'friendship.' This was less than a year ago; twenty-three years old and she finally made a friend! Yaaaay!


Kind of. In case you hadn't guessed (or read a couple lines below), she was Awakening, and Nemissa is her Avatar. This only came to light a month or two ago, mind. She has yet to sort of fade into the background, as Avatars are wont to do. More important to try and get Adler to operate on her own, which is a full-time job in and of itself. Enlightenment can come later, like when she doesn't need her spirit guide babysitting her to ask a girl out. One thing at a time. This paragraph is really short and I want to tell some other stuff so this isn't going to exactly flow but it's important. It turns out our heroine really doesn't like being cripplingly shy and alone. She recently learned the Virtual Adept (YEAH, THAT'S HER TRADITION, WHAT A SURPRISE, AM I RIGHT?) stereotype she doesn't adhere to is the badass cyberpunk dual-pistols-and-a-catsuit hacker, and is endeavoring to fix that. Can't wait to see how that turns out.
