Overview

Quote: "Do you want this firewall down or what? Then back off and let me do my job!"

Anna Marie Chang came to Chicago from Iowa, where she was tired of being the only Asian on the block in her small hometown. She attended the University of Chicago, majoring in computer sciences and engineering. Her one passion was baseball, and she watched every televised game she could, indulging herself occasionally with trips to U.S. Cellular Field for a White Sox home game.

She Awakened suddenly during her final differential calculus exam, exhausted and open to the cosmic forces by lack of sleep and food while studying. In the midst of a complex calculation, Anna found herself trapped inside a tesseract of numbers, each digit seeming to represent a choice, and each choice leading to more numbers. Frantic to wake up from her dream and finish the exam she somehow knew she was taking, Anna made choice after choice, solved problem after problem until, finally, the numbers fell away and she stood face-to-face with the Watchtower of the Iron Gauntlet.

Afterward, she returned to the world of final exams with a finished paper in her hand and no memory of taking the test - which she subsequently aced. A few nights later, she met Triplex, who invited her to join his cabal and used his influence with the administrators of U.S. Cellular Field to get Anna a part-time job overseeing the arena's computer system, with the guarantee of full-time employment as IT administrator after her graduation from the U of C.

Anna uses her specialized computer skills from the Geos' Sanctum, where she acts as sysop for the cabal and also performs what she prefers to think of as investigative database exploration (otherwise known as "hacking"). Her main focus recently has been to keep the Open Source Cabal from intruding into the Geos' netspace. So far, she has managed to be successful.

Description

Her almond-shaped eyes are a warm brown and she crinkles her eyes when she smiles or laughs. Her long, black hair is worn straight and sometimes held back with a simple headband or ribbon.

She dresses conservatively and somewhat dowdily, favoring jumpers and pants suits to almost all other types of clothing.
