Krissy has a blonde waifish look to her, coupled with an aura of not-quite-rightness. She is alternatingly up and down, hot and cold, friendly and sullen and it shows in every line of her face and body. She dresses oddly, with a very personal sense of style that is off-center but not so eccentric as to be comical or contemptable. She is naturally pretty and eshews makeup for the most part, though she does occasionally throw some on in a quirky slap-dash manner from time to time which oddly enough works for her and heightens her haphazard appeal. She has a pretty good warddrobe of silk steel bio-mesh outfits, so her attire is also often functional; she also always carries a handbag large enough to hold her favored gun (the sleek Jones & Strat Imperator -- which she calls her "Imp" and refers to almost as if it were a pet at times), and other necessities. |
Krissy used to be a lot more of a "together" person than she is now. Once upon a time she was a disciplined and alert bonded private security agent. Sharp creases, snap and pop, crisp and professional. She had a notorious habit of falling for the wrong guys, but other than that she had her life 100% on track. But she wanted to join the "big leagues" as she thought of it and become a Runner. Make more money, pick her jobs, and most importantly not have to baby-sit paranoid execs and idle rich jerks.
But she needed an edge. Saving up her money she invested heavily in PharmiTech, getting not one, not two, but three of the most expensive long term mega-atheletic performance enhancers on the market -- Acceleron, Duranal, and Mercurine. The kind of stuff pro-ballers take one or two of, max. She got boosted up all right; as the drugs slowly took effect vast strength, durability, and speed were hers to command but it came with a price. Krissy's sense of self and mental fortitude were heavily eroded as well, which had a marked effect on her personality and emotional stability. Now she is mercurial, prone to mood swings, and hyper-sensitive. She's an emotional rollercoaster, constantly going up and down and all around. Her unstable personality makes others nervous around her, but her aggressive boldness when shes "up" makes her a frightening combatant and she has managed to do well as a Runner. |
"...I'm telling you, pound for pound the Imp beats the G-CAT and the Mako. And it looks better too -- it's cute and sleek! See? And it fits in my purse! Anyway, I'm tired of arguing about this -- it's just better, end of story!!!!" |
Krissy took an extremely expensive devils cocktail of Acceleron, Duranal, and Mercurine a couple of years ago when she decided to become a Runner and is still riding high on their effects. Combined they give her exceptional levels of physical resilience, strength, and speed but have had a deleterious effect on her mental stability and self control. She has racing thoughts, impaired judgment, somewhat impairing impatience with others, and significantly reduced impulse control.
Prior to juicing up, Krissy was already a very competent practitioner of Jeet Kune Do (JKD), an expert shot, a crack combat driver, and also has several useful Cybernetic enhancements thanks to her career as a bonded private security agent; she has continued to maintain her proficiency in these areas. She is also a canny professional and knows the streets of San-San and the ways of urban surveillance well.
Krissy takes advantage of the fact that she looks relatively innocuous -- in fact, she doesn't look like a Runner at all. She will sometimes pretend to be a non-combatant and take foes by surprise when she thinks she can get away with it. Otherwise she relies on speed and maneuverability, takes full advantage of cover and concealment, and gets out of the line of fire whenever prudent. However, her eroded impulse control does make her vulnerable to getting swept up in the moment with a feeling of invincibility or battle lust and going full bore aggressive in combat; she has survived so far (thanks in large part to her expensive Dermaline armor) and this has contributed heavily to her reputation as a psycho-brave Scrapper with no fear of death.
Krissy uses a Jones & Strat Imperator Heavy Pistol with an Impact Load Bore customization intended specifically for bodyguard and enforcement use, a legacy of her security agent days which she would have a difficult time of replacing these days since she allowed her bond to lapse for lack of paying the renewal fees. It has massive stopping power and can knock most people on their asses even with armor on. It's a serious weapon and her pride and joy.
Krissy is planning on undergoing surgery to gain a Reenforced Skeleton soon, after nearly loosing a limb to a Yak razorboy with a VibroKnife, but currently lacks the funds thanks to having to constantly repair her Dermaline. |
