Gear
Regular Semester Allowance: $250 + $100 (TA)=$350 ($255 remaining)

Lime green LG Rumor

Laptop
Pocketknife: $10
1st Aid Kit: $25
Walkie Talkies: $60

Vehicle:
A nice safe bicycle and a public transportation pass, allowing free travel within Pinebox and ETU. Going further out, such as to Lake Greystone, means bumming a ride from a friend.

Extra Curricular:
English TA: Angel TAs for Dr. Melinda Mork, an English professor. Usually that means Angel corrects papers and acts as the frontline for open office hours - walking students in remedial Comp I through run on sentences, split infinitives, and the importance of the Oxford comma - but sometimes she picks up other odd jobs for Dr. Mork too. She makes $100 per semester, has the Connections Edge with Dr. Mork, and has the keys to the school building/office/classroom where she works.

Volunteer: Angel volunteers at an Secondhand Hounds, an animal shelter not far from campus. She starts with one extra Benny per game session for her good works and gets a one time use of the Connections Edge this semester with a +2 bonus to the Streetwise and Persuasion rolls.

Background
Angel was raised primarily by her mother, Marmie Deerdahl, in a trailer park called Green Haven despite there being nothing green or Haven-ish about it. Her older sister, Brandy, ran off with some guy a couple years ago, leaving Angel as the new caretaker for her younger half-siblings - fifteen year old Sunny and seven year old Chase while Marmie works at the elementary school cafeteria and dates some guy named Larry...or Ricky? Or was this one Bud?

Anyway, there's no way Angel would have come even close to thinking about attending ETU until she got the wild idea to apply for a scholarship. The name of the scholarship took a little getting used to - The Fund for Underprivileged and Deprived Youth - but her personal essay about living in Green Haven won her a full ride to ETU. They even gave her a laptop! It's pretty spare as far as features go, but...you know.

The news wasn't well-received by Marmie though, who reacted by accusing Angel of thinking she was better than everyone else and being ungrateful for everything she's done for her. After that, Angel pretty much tuned out. When she left home for ETU, there were no tearful farewells. Marmie didn't even get up from watching a rerun of Wheel of Fortune. But she's here now, and she's going to figure this thing out!
