Pastel

"Pastel"  ~ Alejandra
Contact Of: The Ship, Claire [Primary] Status: 2 Location: [Hidden]

Special: Swan & Mallard

Someone the party had the (mis)fortune to come across on their (mis)adventure. Pastel is a contract assassin working for the Swan & Mallard who specializes in covert killings and corporate espionage.

She was captured by the party during her attempt to assassinate them, and rather than killing her the party struck a deal for her to discourage other Mallards from attacking the party, as well as providing some details to contact her for further work.

[Addendum]

Claire made further contact with Pastel, hereafter Alejandra, to request further contract work from her on a sensitive topic. It was discovered that Alejandra is a professional painter living with a large number of her family in the Imagen Core worlds. The family speaks an an unusual dialect of Terran known as "Spanish".

The direct members Claire encountered were; Xuanito, Migel, Isabella, Santiago, Jose, Xavier, Lilliana, Mateo, Maria, Hugo, Diego, the former Mallard assassin Gabriella and her now husband Gus. Little is known about what each family member does, but on close inspection many of them have minor cybernetics or expensive implants.

Claire is expected to attend a Isabella's wedding on the resort islands on the Imagen Core homeworld in a coming month, and Maria and Xavier have invited her to take dancing lessons with them.

Alejandra herself appears to have a fairly advanced operations center attached to her bedroom, with a floating holoprogram-companion Sebastian as her "Lighthouse", a blue digitized orb, which seems to flow slowly clockwise who speaks in slow, robotic Standard. It was apparently stolen, and is now Sebastian, or so it claims.

She has accepted a recent job offer from Claire.
