Laika.jpg
Laika
The Loyal Pooch
Laika is a German shepherd that Arc had rescued during one of his first runs from a lab performing cybernetic experimentation on animals. Most animals were being used for simple data smuggling, though Laika had been embedded with a datajack and simrig in an attempt to manufacture animal controlled drones. She had been hooked into the Matrix as they analyzed readings in an attempt to create an interface with her animal consciousness. Laika was successfully projected into the Matrix for about four seconds before her mind was scorched.

She was being taken to an incinerator along with several other failed experiments when the runners encountered the unfortunate lab tech. Arc and Laika bonded immediately. Her name was "Subject 84", but Arc named her Laika after the first dog in space, seeing as she was likely the first dog in cyberspace.
Laika's headgear is essentially ornamental now as any function it once had was fried. She has the occasional memory blackout and tends to be a bit on the twitchy side in laboratory settings, but otherwise she recuperated nicely from the trauma.

Arc arhanasuri.jpg
Arhana Suri
The Stripper Ex-girlfriend
Ahrana is both the star performer and part owner of a little faux-classy strip club called <insert name here>. She and Paul have been friends since they were teenagers. Ahrana is a human born to dwarven parents, though where other children in the community tended to shun her, Paul saw the amazing girl in spite of her race (although he always claims it's because he met her breasts before he'd ever met her face and that it was love at first sight). The two of them dated off and on for years, mostly out of convenience and much to the disapproval of Paul's family, but she decided to put an end to their unstable romance after she caught Paul sleeping with her brother Nazir. Despite Paul's infidelity and having broken her brothers heart when he ended their relationship (when Nazir caught him sleeping with someone else), Arhana and Paul have remained friends through the years. She has an idea of what he's been getting up to at nights these days, but prefers to stay on the periphery of that scene, thinking it to be in both their best interests - but she is happy to take his money and perform introductions and provide private space for Paul to conduct business meetings.
Paul often says that she's too good or too pretty for him. She always agrees with him.
