Pipan Stra - Trips
Pipan Stra or Trips is a street grifter, verging on kleptomaniac. She used to spend most of her time conning and lifting money from people's purses but now has the more risky job as a runner for Mama.
Description
Trip enjoys the career change but can often find it hard to give up old habits. She is fairly secretive but trusts most of her team mates, mostly because she sees some of them as too incompetent to be traitors. She tends to stay out of fights and her main skills come into play when she has to break and enter. She knows some of the more seedy spots of the local area and never really strays too far from the red zone.

Bio
Trip grew up in the Red zone after being orphaned at a young age. All she has from her parents are the memory of their languages and their optimistic view on life. Trip’s parents, a French father and a Russian mother, taught her to speak their native languages before being killed in the Red zone where they lived, not being rich and being confined to the Elven Ghetto.
Trip had a harsh childhood, begging and often stealing money to eat, finding shelter under bins and generally being treated like trash. It wasn’t until Mama and Papa G took her in with other street kids, giving them places to sleep, that she began to regain her optimism. Trip took advantage of her status, going unnoticed through crowds of people, honing her skills as a con artist and pickpocket.
One close encounter with the law sent Trip running to the shop and purchasing Cyberware implants, starting with feet to run faster, she eventually gained eyes and ears. She graduated from pickpocket to burglar when she was 16 and found she could make a stable living off this and managed to grab a fake SIN from someone to let her continue. She started getting more daring and ventured into the Yellow zone. She got caught trying to con a small time gang there and got fairly heavily beaten up, this not helped by the proximity to a vast quantity of copper, which she later found she was allergic to.
By the time Trip was 21, she was an accomplished thief, by her standards anyway, then one day she got a message from Mama requesting her presence…
