Training: Satsuki is a computer programmer and hacker matched only
by her brother(who taught her) and second to none. Her
personal computer, Val, she treats
as a friend and confidante; she has improved him to the point of near-human
sentience, and surrounded
him with enough layers of security
that he is virtually unhackable. She LOOOOOOVES her computer…
^-^;;; She usually leaves the
killing side of the business to Kanoe,
but is good with a knife and a decent hunter.
Biography: Kiko’s parents were successful businesspeople who realized
that they couldn’t keep their jobs and raise their children at
the same time, so both she and her
brother were raised in the best creche that could be found, where they
were loved, pampered, and
well-raised. However, when Kiko
was seven, the creche leaders took Suzuki away because he was teaching
her his hacking skills. She
missed him terribly, and out of guilt
they gave her a laptop computer - Val, whom she carries to this day.
In some ways, Val took
Suzuki’s place, but Kiko never stopped
missing her brother. She continued to work on her computer skills,
determined to find out what
had happened to Suzuki, and became
a bounty hunter to gain access to that network of information. She
met Kanoe when she was thirteen,
and has worked with her ever since;
Kai is a recent addition to their team. She treats “E-chan” as a
respected older sister and Kai as a
good friend, but isn’t quite ready
to accept him into her little family. She tries to act as hard and
cynical as her namesake, but has trouble
keeping it up; on the inside, she’s
a cross between a cute, happy five-year-old and a valley girl. She
shows little interest in the dating scene,
other than a mild distaste for Kanoe’s
girlfriend Kisha, but does think that Tetsuya is “purty” and freaked out
when Kai shot him.
