OK, here is my first stab at a character. Please look at it and give me some ideas on how I went wrong and what I can do to fix it.
Simone Hastings, AKA Rocky Love, is an "Exotic Dancer and Escort" at the "All You Want" strip club and brothel in the Auburn Center Mall. The work is not hard and the income is steady. She is not the best=looking whore in the club, but she can dance and is energetic in her skills at entertaining clients. The small wage and large tips allow her to pursue her real love - rigging. She loves being the machine, whether it is her modified van or one of her drones. She cares for her drones like they were her children. Her birth name is Jana Varlock and she came to the Renton District strip club by a roundabout way that started when she was in the service and was assigned as part of a machinegun team. The team was left assigned as part of a military operation against a rogue NAN tribal militia, but was left stranded when the higher command made a last minute treaty, sacrificing the team. Jana and her teammates conducted a classical retreat by combat operation and almost made it out.....almost. UCAS forces had to watch from their side of the border as the team was surrounded and exterminated less that 500m from safety. Jana was evacuated to the UCAS after seven months of captivity, then court-martialed for crimes against a friendly nation. Cashiered, she went home, but no one would have anything to do with her. Broke and near starving, she was offered a job as a stripper and prostitute.
She changed her name to Simone Hastings and started working several nights a week, using the rest of her time taking odd jobs for various crime lords. Her implants are courtesy of the UCAS military, as is most of her skill training. Always a good linguist, she has learned the languages of the larger syndicates so that she could know what what was being said behind her back. The Blood Mountain Boys is a Renton Go-Gang that is making a comeback after being decimated when KE moved into Seattle and wanted to prove a point. Simone has undergone the skill test to become a member and proudly wears their brown and red colors.
