Appearance

50%

Pretty but skinny girl in her early 20s. Willa is usually observed wearing clothing appropriate for a work environment. Even when casual, she prefers jeans and a blouse or (usually geeky) t-shirt. She self-admits to having little sense of fashion. If she is going to an event that requires it, she will plunder the Internet beforehand and determine what is reasonably fashionable enough to wear, then purchase it online.

Background

Mortal Life

Jade was born Kimberley Willa Gordon in the UK and the mortal grand-neice of Clarissa Jade of Clan Senya. She was born with a rare condition: Dextocardia Situs Inversus; due to which Jade's heart was on the wrong side of her body, and this presented many heart-related problems as she grew up. Despite this, she grew courageous and strong-willed and defied her condition, achieving the Duke of Edinburgh award, but her ability to participate in physical endeavours was limited, and regular illness caused her to spend much time at home. A precocious fast learner with eidetic memory, Jade learnt much from books and the internet, and grew extrememly capable with computers which she felt allowed her to have an active online social life despite her condition.

She achieved a BSc Honours (First Class) in Computer Science from Middlesex University, and was undergoing her Masters degree when she suffered a major heart attack due to her dextocardia. Although she survived the attack, it had weakened her already-fragile heart, and a transplant was impopssible due to her condition. Her days were numbered. Unwilling to let her die, her grandmother told her a family secret - that her own sister had not died during the second world war, but had become a vampire - though she had not seen her in decades. Kimberley used her computing skills and in time managed to track down her great-aunt and begged for help. Impressed and touched by both her plight and skill, her great-aunt Embraced her, and helped her fake her own death before bringing her to her new unlife in America as Willa Jade.

Unlife

In Ashford Jade made up for lost time, completing her Masters and then achieved a D.Eng in Computer Science; following which she has worked at her sire's Jade Technology Ltd (alias: JadeTech) company, being elevated quickly to a managerial position. Whilst working for her sire, Jade's sire also trained her in the Path of Technomancy Thaumaturgy, and other secondary paths, and ensured she gained some basic martial arts training and competence with firearms. This would prove to be a wise precaution when the Sabbat Crusade struck. The infamous Opera House Massacre left Jade without a sire and mentor, and she found little solace from her Clan, with their Primogen seemingly having lost his mind in grief at the death of Clarissa Jade, who was his paramour, and most of the clan being too occupied with their own survival or insensitive to the neonate's grief. What little attention and aid they gave was often in the form of authoritarian instructions as to what the clan required her to do - or often what they objected to her doing, as during this time Willa began calling herself simply "Jade" as an homage to her sire (who likewise rarely used her first name) and grew close to various of the Malkavian clan, inclusing the Malkavian Whip AJ which who she was rumoured to have been romantically involved at one point.

Founding of the 1337 5kw4d

50%

A white-hat hacker, Jade had at times clashed with other neonates (most notably with the Neonate "1337" of Clan Nosferatu) and become frenemies of sorts with them. She decided to approach them individually, and managed to convince them that they had more in common than they realised, and together could form a power-group that could give even Camarilla elders pause; and in the short-term, mutually protect each other and assist their clans against the Sabbat Crusade.

As most of the founding members were either anarchs, anarch-sympathisers or otherwise saw benefit of joining (not least of which was not being conquered/killed by the Sabbat), the coterie was formed under the initial alias of the D1g174L F4ng5, although this was changed later on to the present "1337 5kw4d" ("Leet Squad")) after the group established ties with the Digital Draculas coterie and other Anarch Movement Hactivists, so as to not appear to have plagiarised the name idea. The initial founding members were (in order of membership):

• Willa Jade, Clan Senya. Internet ID: 0r4cL3
• 1337, Clan Nosferatu. Internet ID: 1337Kw33n
• Peter 'Garf' Garfield, Clan Brujah. Internet ID: Ȼя4ȥ¥ MØиk3¥
• Arisha Pirozhnikova, Clan Toreador. Internet ID: Ste4mG1r7

Several weeks later, two other neonates were invited into the coterie, both with less hacktivism skills, but ability or potential with different fields of computing or digital information usage:

• Evelina Astridsdotter, Clan Malkavian. Internet ID: B00kw0rm (sponsored by 0r4cL3)
• Mackenzie 'Kenzi' Dubenenko, Clan Gangrel. Gamer Tag: K4mik3nzi22 (sponsored by Ste4mG1r7)

Whilst all the members of the 1337 5kw4d who have degrees in computing-related fields have a high degree of competence in various IT disciplines, Jade is by far the one with the highest degree of computer science education and works actively in the IT field and hacktivism. She is a master coder and expert in network and media communications. This makes her a natural master hacker (she will state she does not hack - she finds errors in code or hardware that she can exploit).
