I have only played D&D. Was asked if I want to play shadowrun tonight with a group and trying not to be the irritating newb with character build. So was told to come up with a back story, and then given some basics to use.
Aoife (street samurai/Human) Given this name from her family, it means Life in Hebrew. Grew up in a farming village of human and elves. Always felt the need to protect and defend(which ended up in a lot of fights growing up) Joined the military, but left after feeling dissatisfied with the justice she received from her village being demolished. Does not trust easily, but is the most loyal friend if she does. Believes the punishment should fit the crime, and she is the one to deal it out. Family is number one, and if you are in her circle, you are family.
(So quick, hard-knocks logic, strength, and can take a hit if needed)
I have 29 karma points left to use and not sure how to use them(was just told to divvy them up)
