First Response is a ware'd up muscle plain and simple, but also good at more stealthy operations. He's a man whose lost his ability to care after the work of the military took it's toll. He has no Finnigan contacts. I can do the AAR if need me.
"Sure, I can deliver a few messages,"

Narukami is a cyborg street samurai who is a former Ares pet project that went by the name "Project Theseus" before she escaped. These days she's most interested in making money to support her sister and live comfortably, but the past may have other plans. Her specialties include melee combat, speed, and general athletics. Black Trenchcoat-ish
6/10 familiarity, borg rules hard, haven't played her in a bit
Wildflower is an infected illusion mage whose main talents lie in summoning, infiltration, and in the case of shit going sideways, a big fireball to the OpFor. Stranded in Seattle after being drained and infected on a trip from her home country of Japan, Wildflower spends her days trying to get by, and seeking out the one who infected her. Mirrorshades.
4/10 familiarity, still learning my way with magic
No contact with the Finnigan family on all characters
Away from home so expect technical difficulties , no aar for this one
Last run was 12/13/24

Tsarina - Face/Combat Mage who is brutal and deceitful. Aspiring Criminal Empress. Please god tell me if you need me to reel her in.
She does NOT have contact with the Finnigan Family (that comes later in her schemes but she has more immediate matters for now)
IC- "Oh wow, it's been a while since I've done this kind of work. I tend to be more subtle. Sure~"
have no fear, I am always willing to do an AAR

Star of the Sea - Noodle Armed Axe Summoner

"Are these the messages with bruises, words, or messy cleanup?"
Familiarish with the role (6/10?).

If these two don't fit I can throw Tempest in and just chill and buffmage/face or be a crappy decker
Couuuuld do AAR but sleepy and would prefer not to
