But In here, I'm Rori David
I've roamed these streets for 25 Years
Here's My Card
Orientation Straight
Rori's skills include writing quickly. When she is not panicking, she has a photographic memory, but only for what she hears.
Rori works as an embedded spy, investigative journalist...whatever you want to call it for Infocomp.
My cold steel Something about cyberware leaves Rori unsettled. She knows that she's one of the only people in the world who feels that way, but it is what it is, and Rori has no implants. Herweapons and tools include a Savior Studios employee badge, a notebook and pen/pencil, flashlight, a pocketknife, a laptop, and a handgun and ammunition she's not trained to use.
Here's how it goes Aurora David grew up with a stay-at-home mother, Lilly, and a father, Jonathan, in the service of the Public Relations--propaganda--branch of Savior Studios, the American subsidiary of Biotechnica. Her parents rarely discussed political issues at home. But Rori was always an observant child, and when the subject of their government or their beloved leader came up, she often noted a rise of tension in the household, and her parents would not talk--save to snap at each other--for days. Her father rarely exposed her to his colleagues--scary, sharp, and serious men and women in suits who made a young Rori wince--but Rori attended the same corporate-run and corporate-influenced schools as every other child in the United States, and Jonathan watched as the propaganda he had worked to develop for years overtook his own daughter's education. When Rori was thirteen years old, her father vanished, and while Rori learned soon after that his field colleagues were responsible, this didn't heighten any animosity towards the corporation that helped her country so. She missed her father, and weeped for his passage, but if he had planned some act of corporate espionage, it was better for the company--and for United States--that he was gone.
When Rori was fifteen, her educational track shifted, and she went into the same corporate service as her father Jonathan before her. When she turned eighteen, Rori graduated, and started working to spread Savior Studio's message or corporate infallibility and importance to a new generation of children.
During a home visit, Rori discovered a house empty save a note from her mother. Lilly was on the run, and the note listed a location. Forced to make an abrupt decision, Rori burned the note, and did not tell anyone what it had read. Leaving her childhood residence, another agent from Public Relations approached Rori, and she soon learned of his true allegiance--the man served as a spy for Infocamp.
He threatened to report her to their superiors, and Rori knew that his longevity and age would prove him believed instead of her. And his request for her to, just as him, report back to Infocamp any information possible started off as menial. But the demands grew more insistent over the years. Rori still lives in fear of her secret's reveal, and she goes by the codename 'Notebook', in what her handler at the Infocamp considers an ironic jab at her habits of recording everything in a reporter's notebook.
Additives Rori is quiet when first meeting people--she has been taught that people often share more of their secrets when they're simply allowed to talk, not when they are coerced or asked questions. She is able to switch from this very quickly, and become personable, a social chameleon who can easily learn what she wants from the unsuspecting. But she memorized the lessons of her instructors. She has trouble adapting them to field work, and has very little in the way of street smarts.
