Talia

	Talia Summers feels she never got to live her life until she lost it. She was a young overachiever, a cypherpunk extraordinaire just getting into college on Earth, when she was killed in a car accident. Thankfully her insurance covered destructive uploading, and she found herself faced with a new life on the other side of the code.
	At that point… Her goals suddenly seemed faraway. She took a variety of odd jobs in odd shells just to get by, sometimes in odd corners of the Sol system. While she kept a metaphorical finger on the pulse of cryptology, she hasn't really returned to her studies.
	All that changed while she was working as a bodyguard for Jordan Whitethorn. BodyguardCrush of a sort, but not with Jordan, with his Eros bioroid, Chelsea. Jordan was loathe to give up such a toy, and rather than name a monetary price, demanded `[a service]`. `
    ` Eventually, Talia managed to pay this price, bought Chelsea, and promptly manumitted her.

	The most expensive shell is her primary shell. The others are all negative points with "Minimal Software"(-255), which can be statted, but basically means the body is unoccupied. She can occupy the cyberdoll or the mainframe at any particular time, and optionally teleoperate the buzzbot or the mini-snakebot.

	Prevents fully effective long-term disguise, but can still lead to a hostile reaction from people who feel they've been deceived, even accidentally.



	Mainframe
	A static computer. Talia mostly uses it as a "quiet" place to house her intelligence while in VR or teleoperating a small shell. The casing is “semi-smart matter” with minor sensors, enabling Talia to monitor events in her vicinity, complain about users leaving coffee cups on her, etc.

	Newshawk Buzzbot
	A miniature helicopter with two shrouded counter-rotating rotors, a cluster of sensors, and one manipulator arm. This "newshawk" model has upgraded audiovisual sensors, and the same may be used by the media observer.

	Mini-Snakebot
	A meter-long robot cobra, legal for the consumer market(i.e. no venom, fangs are soft plastic). Talia doesn't go in for the "decadent lady draped in snake" look, so she hasn't bought an animal-intelligence AI for it. Instead, she sometimes takes it out to teleoperate from her mainframe(or sometimes from her cyberdoll), since she finds occasional existence as a snake to be virtually stress-free.
