* Passionate nerd about ''infrastructure'' of all things. Want to hear all about trains? Roads? Bridges? '' Our crumbling sewer system won't someone think of the children for god's sake?''  Coda will happily go on about it. At length. He goes to city hall meetings as a concerned citizen. It's a whole deal.

* Apprenticeship for 5. His mentor's name is John Random.
 +
 
 +
* John is a curmudgeon. Coda often got on his nerves. John went on vacation almost immediately after declaring that Coda was a Chela now. Call him only if the world was ending, that sort of thing.

* Coda himself had a stellar reputation for being a high integrity fellow until Rune. He chased the (Nephandus? Maurader? Rumors aren't clear) Morrigan all the way to New York. Morrigan died in the confrontation. As Morrigan and Rune had shared a twisted mentor, Coda brought Rune in.
 +
 
 +
* Coda did not approve of Rune's sentencing. He fought against it. He said Rune was innocent. He visited Rune regularly. He may have used up some political capital to make the sentence lighter than it was.
 +
 
 +
* Coda's reputation is now okay-to-neutral-to-not-great. He's been living with Rune for five years, for his own reasons, working closely with him. Those who are inclined to judge Rune harshly are inclined to paint him with the same brush. On the other hand he's still known for high integrity, and he is known for being a pretty damned good investigator and person to have on your side when you've got a problem. YMMV, Your Opinion May Vary.
 +
 
 +
* Big math nerd. A lot of his magickal practice is rooted in mathematics, sacred shapes, sacred numbers, equations, probability, statistics. This includes things people don't normally think of as math, like music.

CodaHeader.jpg
Info

The stranger at my fireside cannot see the forms I see,
nor hear the sounds I hear;
he but perceives what is;
while unto me all that has been is visible and clear.
.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow - Haunted Houses





The Man

  • Day trader. Freelance.
  • Passionate nerd about infrastructure of all things. Want to hear all about trains? Roads? Bridges? Our crumbling sewer system won't someone think of the children for god's sake? Coda will happily go on about it. At length. He goes to city hall meetings as a concerned citizen. It's a whole deal.
  • Drives a Rivian R1S.
  • Has been in San Francisco all his life.

The Mage

  • Euthanatos Lhaksimist
  • Awakened 10 years ago.
  • Apprenticeship for 5. His mentor's name is John Random.
  • John is a curmudgeon. Coda often got on his nerves. John went on vacation almost immediately after declaring that Coda was a Chela now. Call him only if the world was ending, that sort of thing.
  • Coda himself had a stellar reputation for being a high integrity fellow until Rune. He chased the (Nephandus? Maurader? Rumors aren't clear) Morrigan all the way to New York. Morrigan died in the confrontation. As Morrigan and Rune had shared a twisted mentor, Coda brought Rune in.
  • Coda did not approve of Rune's sentencing. He fought against it. He said Rune was innocent. He visited Rune regularly. He may have used up some political capital to make the sentence lighter than it was.
  • Coda's reputation is now okay-to-neutral-to-not-great. He's been living with Rune for five years, for his own reasons, working closely with him. Those who are inclined to judge Rune harshly are inclined to paint him with the same brush. On the other hand he's still known for high integrity, and he is known for being a pretty damned good investigator and person to have on your side when you've got a problem. YMMV, Your Opinion May Vary.
  • Big math nerd. A lot of his magickal practice is rooted in mathematics, sacred shapes, sacred numbers, equations, probability, statistics. This includes things people don't normally think of as math, like music.
RP Hooks


Don't see an RP hook you like? Page me! Maybe I'll see an RP hook I like on your page. Or we can brainstorm a little. I'm generally happy to RP with anyone. My times are Sundays, then Tuesdays through Fridays between 5 CST and Whenever.



General Roleplay Hooks


  • Day Trade the Day Away - Need your money managed? While Coda mostly makes his own money for himself he does have a professional trade account and can take on clients. He doesn't, not often: he's discerning about who he'll help. But those he does help? Have a tendency to make bank.
  • Dances Like Commander Shephard - It's awful. Really. And he wants to figure out how to do it better. Are you the one who can help?



Specific Roleplay Hooks


  • Unlikely Investigator - Day trading pays the bills. What he's really passionate about is helping people who need it. Finding lost items. Finding lost people. Sometimes trying to solve the murders of people nobody else cares about. If you've got a problem and no one else can help, and so on. He does, in fact, have an active State of California Private Investigator's license, though you won't find him actively advertising his services as such anywhere. He uses it for things that capture his own interest, or, at times, receives a referral from a friend of a friend.
  • Infrastructure Nerd - Do you also have a passion for infrastructure issues? Are you involved in local politics? Coda's a concerned citizen and a dedicated nerd for all things civic infrastructure. He's very involved in local politics as a result.
  • Are You a Haighter? - Coda lives somewhere in Haight-Ashbury and is often seen in shops and businesses around the neighborhood. Maybe we've run into each other?
Case Files


Despite being a licensed PI, Coda doesn't advertise himself as any sort of an investigator. He may not be running an investigator's business, but he keeps extensive files on things he's looking into at his file cabinet at home.
