Iris Fairlight

OOC

The following article is not canon to this wiki. It is here to allow GMs to use Iris consistently and understand my (Daniel's) intentions, but Jynx does not know much of this, and what she knows she doesn't discuss

Before Jynx

Iris Fairlight was an Otaku. Misunderstood and feared by her parents upon coming into her powers, she ran away from home and led a nomadic lifestyle. She would join and leave Otaku tribes, never quite finding the right fit. She was a wiz hacker going by the handle Prismatic Shade; her Persona looked like a flat projection of a metahuman, fading off at the bottom, single-hued cycling gradually through the colours of the rainbow.

She started to Fade earlier than most, and turned to various meatspace pleasures to compensate, including many casual sexual encounters. One of these led to her pregnancy.

Determined to have the baby and give them the best life possible, she sought out one of the few relationships she hadn't burned - Connor McTavish. She'd helped him set up his tavern in Redmond; she'd made sure the right permits, licenses and miscellaneous paperwork got to the right place without getting bogged down in bureaucracy, and since then they'd been loyal to each other. He let her stay on for cheaper rent than most, and she would perform the odd matrix favour for him.

Eventually, a baby girl was born, but with her birth, the last of Iris' powers Faded completely. This was a difficult time for Iris - traditional postpartum depression coupled with the insecurity that maybe having the baby caused the Fade, maybe she even took them from her! However, she managed to reconcile her feelings, and loved the girl deeply, naming her [REDACTED]. This is the girl who would one day become Jynx.

For the remainder of this article I will use 'Jynx' to refer to the baby/child, despite her only taking this name later in life
