Description

Ikaela doesn’t look like much, but that only makes it easier for her to do her job. She’s a 16 year old ork who is connected to the pulse and life of the Barrens. Her business acumen is hidden behind an unassuming face, although she is just a little more physical of stature than average. She might live in the Barrens, but that doesn’t mean she can’t find out what’s going on in the world. But this network of hers doesn’t come cheap. After all, a girl’s gotta eat, right, chummer?

Need to Know

Thanks to her connections, “shadows” can get you a lot of information on a wide variety of subjects. For a fee determined by the GM, she can get you threshold-one level information, and it goes up by 500 nuyen per threshold. However, the most she can find is threshold-3 level information. If you need information from somewhere in Seattle, she can get the information in a couple of hours. If it’s outside of Seattle, the time is doubled because her network outside of Seattle isn’t that established.

Another File, Another Time

On the streets, you learn to do a lot of things to survive. Sometimes, you’ll leave things instead. If you need to plant information, Ikaela knows a couple who can get chips or paydata that will be incriminating enough to do the job. But she doesn’t do this for free. If you use her service to get “disposable” paydata, you’re going to need to replace it with something of equal or greater value. It can be from the company your character is running against now, or it can be nuyen. But it needs to be paid before you meet the Johnson (or his guys) to get paid.

Dark Secrets

Her network isn’t just street rats and hoodlums. The people that Shadows gets her information from are placed in all levels of society, from the street up to corporate boardrooms. The only thing they have in common? Rumor has it they’re all technomancers. Shadows can get you an extra two dice for any rumor or data search involving technomancers. And she won’t even charge (extra) for this information.
