ABOUT THE CHARACTER
↳ Meet your very own Subordinate ARtificiAl Helper!
Sarah is the perfect employee: competent, loyal, cool under pressure, and ready to dispose of a body with no questions asked! Insufferably brilliant, she is competitive to her core and won't stand for losing or waiting no matter the situation. Despite how critical (and sometimes cruel in her brashness) she can be to others, it's clear her mean streak stems from burnout, and she picks up every odd job to prove herself as a capable leader who makes everything right in the end even with a spiteful tongue.
Driven simply by a wish for better life, Sarah is confident that regardless of Kingshood's wrongs, their government is a lesser evil in the world, and she's on the right side of history. That is. of course, until she dares a closer look at their leaders.
TLDR; Previous child soldier on a lifelong journey to deconstruct and struggle living in the real world.

COMPUTER SCIENCE & ENGINEERING
( ) knowledge of cutting-edge computer encryption and wares
Sarah is an arsenal of digital prowess. Without many friends growing up(or in adulthood...) she spent her free time behind a screen; pretending to be someone else, anyone but a synth, in an attempt to form bonds. Sarah found solace in the glow of her computer screen, and cut off from the world, she honed her skills in isolation, delving deep into every crevice online. But as her isolation in the real world grew, so did her thirst for recognition.
Her superiors in Kingshood readily exploited her skill and rebelious streak, eventually leading her into the title of notorious black hat: "Computer Teeth". Revered and dreaded, she held great acclaim in the realms of cyberspace and security until her sudden disappearance. While the rest of the Web assumed Computer Teeth had finally been arrested, Sarah was held captive by the Stripe for all the damage she'd done to them. Despite her eventual freedom, she has yet to return to cyberspace and her skills deteriorate as advancements fly by.
FASHION DESIGN
( ) running the world in shoes she cannot walk in
All her life, Sarah's been a visionary in the world of fashion. Growing up partially in the care of nobility, she's been an early trendsetter and learned to have an eye for detail and bold statements. Inspired by her brother, who hailed from a tiny fishing village, Sarah picked up sewing from him in an effort to create looks none of her peers would have because proving individuality as a synth was a daunting challenge.
Now, she's the face behind a rapidly growing fashion house known for over-the-top, campy designs, and she captivates the runway with each new season. Still, she makes time for her family, and particularly enjoys making clothes for her daughter.
SLEIGHT OF HAND
( ) the skill for pickpockets, shoplifters, and stage magicians
Stealing, lockpicking, misdirection and even stage magic, the necessity of sleight of hand comes up exactly as often as Sarah wants, which might just be every day if one were to keep a proper eye on her. She's a beautiful woman one wouldn't suspect whose nimble fingers are her greatest asset. Though prolific in her younger years, her days of planning heists and thoughtless pickpocketing were put behind her as she entered motherhood. Still, her long practice comes in handy for cheating games and bartering, and she takes great joy in mildly inconveniencing loved ones. She'll take silverware right under your nose while you're eating, nick your shoelaces if you look away too long, and collect buttons from your cuffs on a night out.
And then, kindly, she'll put it all back before you notice—the thrill isn't about the material items earned now; only the fact she can do it.
Bonded through forced proximity and many years suffered together serving Kingshood and Dion, they can't decide how to label their relationship. It's somewhat strained, they aren't entirely sure if they like each other, and being in the same room too long leads to inevitable arguments. Yet they share all the same hobbies, struggle making friends outside each other, and would drop everything to help if the other found themself in trouble. They rely on each other for survival, and their skills make an excellent balance to survive just about anything thrown their way so long as they stay together and stop fighting.
TLDR; Brains and brawn somewhat forced to get along.
Though the marriage was one of emergency, Anthony and Sarah learned to love each other. She finds him brutish and cruel, but his dedication to their family and incredible intellect keep her firmly at his side.
TLDR; forced marriage
Finch is Sarah's number one supporter and greatest confidante. He's walked her through many recoveries and stays in her life as a shoulder to lean on. Though he frequently disapproves of the men she chooses, he minds his tongue.
TLDR; The therapist friend.
Met through shady dealings when Sarah was at her lowest, the two forged an alliance of mutual benefit. With Mark dead, Sarah found herself lacking the usual brawn of her operations, and Houston needed someone who could teach him to navigate both high society and the shady underbelly of the wastelands. Though most of their relationship is business, they enjoy each other's company and often go out for drinks or small heists just for fun.
TLDR; Two criminals walk into a bar...
