Carol Emeka

Whenever Carol received corporate job offers, she was told it would allow her to settle down in the city, save some eddies and find her place on Earth. The problem was that Carol had found this place long ago among the Aldecaldos nomads. Sure, it might have been more comfortable to work in a swanky office equipped with top-of-the-line equipment... but with the Aldecaldos she found something more valuable: a sense of belonging, a feeling of being needed, that those she holds dear can rely on her skills. That feeling of being part of something... something which she grew to call family. This was her place on Earth and she wouldn't give it up for anything.
She never mentions her real family. Barely out of her teens, she fled her small town in Maryland and enlisted in the army. She was trained as a netrunner and technician, capable of operating heavy panzers. But when her contract ended, she became convinced the army was just another corporation - albeit one that didn't bother to hide the bloodshed on the front lines. So she left and joined the nomads. Life on the road helped her gain the right perspective and skills, but it wasn't until the Aldecaldos that she found a home and family - not by blood, but by choice - worth protecting. No matter the cost.
