Stacy Grant--Recluse Gardener

Unread post by Mallak's Place »

Stacy Grant.

Stacy is a timid, shy and reclusive woman who has always been very uncomfortable in social situations and tries to avoid them whenever possible. Growing up she rarely spoke to anyone and then only in a shy whisper when she was forces to say anything. Her social ineptitude and reclusive nature would probably have sent her to the Vats to be remade as a biotic, if not for the fact she has a “green thumb“ (+20% to gardening & Identify Plants). Because of this the Master Gardener of Clan Howe could hardly wait to start her training when she came of age. Still very reclusive she spends practically all her time in the safety of her Host Armor caring for her plants.

Appearance: Out side of her Armor she is a slightly attractive and thin (underweight) woman, she has pale skin from wearing her Host Armor for days at a time. As a member of Clan Howe’s Gardeners Guild she has a implanted Bio-Comm, this is represented by a 2 foot long green vine growing out the back of her skull. The implantation of the Bio-Com has also changed her eyes to a bright green (originally pale blue), her black hair she wears braided together with the vine from her Bio-Com. She also has a faint floral sent from the neurolytic jelly from her Host Armor

Nice NPC. Thank you for sharing her.
"Your Grace," she said, "I have only one question. Do you wish this man crippled or dead?"

"My Lady," the protector of Grayson told his Champion, "I do not wish him to leave this chamber alive."

"As you will it, your Grace."
