Player GM Name Leonard Baxter Streetname Lenny Archetype BTL Dealer Race Human Sex Male Date of Birth July 7th, 2024 Status Unknown SIN UCAS-751023486-C Description Lenny is a pale-skinned creature of the night - but not in an intimidating way. He has long, dirty-blond, unkempt hair and unfortunate features that make him look slightly helpless and incompetent. Usually dressed in clothing that's two seasons out of fashion, but still representable, but sadly he wears it in such a way that it just adds to the image of helplessness. But that's not Lenny's most prominent feature, though. You see, he's clumsy, but not only in a physical way, but also in a social way. He stutters sometimes, gets nervous really quickly, and fumbles for things instead of decisively picking them up. There are only a few people that can stand him for very long, because not only does he look as sickly as the clients he deals his poison, too, but he also acts like he's constantly chasing. Lenny is a bottomfeeder in the techno-underground society of the 2060s. Personality Lenny was diagnosed with heavy case of Attention Deficit Disorder, or ADD, and it makes him act like he's constantly on edge or nervous, when in fact it's just his mind unable to focus it's thoughts in one direction, and where his mind goes, his body follows. Which is why he constantly keeps picking at things, fumbling for objects, stuttering, moving, and generally making people around him, as well as himself, completely uncomfortable. The only people that seem to be able to take his nervous shit are the junkies he deals to, because their craving for a new fix often makes them display the same problems, only worse. Intelligent, but unsure of himself, Lenny tries to make his way through life concentrating on the only thing that calms him down; Neuropsychology and Direct Neural Interfacing. So very skilled and very smart in the ways he manages to splice simsense recordings into untapped pleasure centres of the brain, it might explain why he's still in the business of BTL pushing without his personality getting him geeked. It is also his personality that kept any of the syndicates of "recruiting" him, so far, and him remaining a relative free agent all these years. History Born in Snohomish, Washington, amidst the farms and the agribusinesses Lenny always had trouble at school, and found little help from his proletarian parents who didn't know how to help him properly. He failed at every class but managed to finish highschool with relatively good grades due to his incredible compensation in biology and chemistry. At the age of 17, he got accepted to the University of Washington on a full scholarship and happily moved to the city, away from his misunderstanding parents. The move was not without some rancor, because his parents refused to understand why he needed to move out, after "all they had done for him." With that, they really just meant "all that we've put up with." Dispite having long, drawn-out arguments with their neurotic son, they still didn't realise that which they realise now; that their son moving out would be the best thing for his relationship with them. We found several records of domestic disturbance in the Lone Star databases between mid-2040 and mid-2041, in which Lone Star had to come and mediate between Lenny - who had locked himself in the bathroom trying to escape his father - and his father, who had been threatening to kill him out of sheer frustration. We couldn't find any cases of domestic disturbance from the time before Lenny decided to move out. When Lenny arrived at the university campus, there was some trouble regarding his housing. I'm unsure what happened, but it shows that Lenny lived off campus for the first year, renting some storage space for most of his things, and living out of coffin motels close to university grounds. It would be here where Lenny first got introduced to the beetle chips. Before graduating cum laude with a degree in Applied Neuro-Chemistry in 2047, having done much research into the effects of DNI overload and the damage it causes, as well as helping on research into the effects of psychotropic intrusion countermeasures, he was admitted to two different hospitals on three different occassions with neural shock resulting from the use of beetles. When done with university, he moved back into a coffin motel and put his things back in storage. He found it hard to find a job in his field, due to his personality. Many different recruiters found his personality hard to incorporate within their "corporate vision," and soon Lenny found his money running out. He worked several odd jobs from 2047 to 2050, after which he got arrested, and did time for several counts of BTL production and distribution. His personality and criminal past making it near impossible to get a foot in the door to sell his genius to any of the corporations in the field he studied for. And so Lenny's career got started. Comments >>>>>[I feel quite sad that we had no alternative but to hand him over to the Vory. I seriously doubt if he will ever be seen again.]<<<<<             · Proteus [12-01-2004 / 05:49:49] >>>>>[Hmph. Better him than me. Lenny, if you're out there, it was nuttin' personal. Just business.]<<<<<             · Grind [13-01-2004 / 10:18:14] >>>>>[Ahh, Americans. Always so quick to assume the worst, and always ready to write it off as "just business". Pay attention, people. We _do not_ waste resources as useful as this. Obviously, I'm not about to tell you where he is at the moment, but suffice it to say that his talents are being put to good use.]<<<<<             · The Cagey Bee [14-08-2004 / 13:52:00]               gone but not forgotten >>>>>[Whoever you are, you better pray I never find you, tovarisch. You talk too much.]<<<<<             · Borya [14-08-2004 / 15:25:11] >>>>>[Yes, Borya, I'm sure you'd looove to maintain matrosskaya tischina while these people make us look like Yet Another Bunch Of Hoods With Funny Accents. Information is a weapon, but it is useless if constantly concealed. If the entire organizatsiya were judged by your record, _nobody_ serious would have any more reason to do business with us than with anyone else. I will turn this into an organization with a professional reputation, mat tvoyu, even if it kills me. You and the idiot who fed us that bullshit on Isabella aren't helping. I'm having this discussion with you in public, BTW, to let you know just where you and I stand.]<<<<<             · The Cagey Bee [14-08-2004 / 15:48:40]               gone but not forgotten Click here to leave a comment!   wrx://characters/handle WizKids, LLC has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video and/or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun.
