(Character is transitioning from the old version 20 years ago to one more believable)

Background:
Grew up in a normal family in a normal city in Missouri, USA. Quickly acquired a penchant for oddness and left home early, legally changing her name from Megan Anderson. Worked her way through state college with a degree in Criminology. One of her roommates was a refugee from the second Rwandan civil war, which piqued her interest. Her graduate work got her a job at ACME, and she used her experience there to publish a book on investigating war crimes. Has met Neb before. If asked, she simply says, "It's a very long story".

Physical Appearance:
Reasonably physically fit for a 45-year-old. Usually wearing loud skirts, blouse, and vest with hair tied back, and wood jewelry. A smoker trying to quit, so usually holding a cigarette that she lets burn up. Has a standard service weapon but is more adept with fists than guns.

Personality
Outwardly cheery and generally at ease, but guarded about personal details. Not afraid to pick a fight, verbally or physically, but keeps that secured for use when necessary. Has an appreciation for gallows humor. Likes loud music.

Role at ACME
Not as involved in Carmen-related capers as the other agents; often jokes that Carmen is "too smart for her, so why bother". Usually in the field or at her desk, pouring over the medical examiner's report. Likes to tease Chase about agents going "to the Dark Side". Terrible with machines but exceptional at tackling cold cases.

Okay for real though, would Seldavia consider joining us on our adventures?

Any particular genre, or just loud?


Were there any cases you found particularly satisfying to crack?
For music, I like metal, Latin, techno. Anything that moves quickly and has a lot of variance in sound.

Most cold cases are more difficult than the standard, because in murders the corpse has nearly always been moved from the place the crime has been committed. Often, as in mass graves, there is more than one corpse. But there was one in Brazil where all I had to go on was a foot in a shoe that had floated down the Amazon...took a long time and a lot of help from co-workers, but I finally nailed the murderer last month.

International cold cases, then? Your office is on the 21st floor: Accolade

At which age did you start working at ACME, and under which division?

    I just heard on the news they're going to have to remove the Sakura trees in Washington because of damage to a sea wall. They have to build a sea wall and replant new trees.

    Okay wait. Only 158 of the 2,500 have to be taken down. They are also taking clippings from the cut down trees to propagate new ones

    one of the GOOD spiders you want around because they eat all the really bad bugs in the house. We put them outside :)

    @Lucy ... don't know if you really want wolf spiders in your home... I'd go for jumping spiders, they can't bite... wolf spiders are the fast movers, and they can bite.

    ((Will lose my ACP internet towards the end of the month, unless anyone knows about it ending sooner. Trying to switch my Lifeline phone to a better provider that doesn't shut me off after four and a half gigs of data, nothing but failure so far and "call here" and "it's on their end" and the back and forth crap... in the morning, it's time to demand the supervisor and might even get to harsh language (after three days of that). I plan to use the Lifeline phone tethered as Internet source, share that to my own router... I've done it before (it's messy, and not 100% effective, but it works). ))

    ((The 'net is the main way to apply for jobs now, so I need that, and I've moved/changed Lifeline providers before without an issue, so no idea what the problem is. I have active Verizon through ACP, active Lifeline through Airtalk... is that somehow the issue? If anyone knows, please let me know before I tear someone a new one (ya know what I mean). After three days of this, and two days about a month ago, I'm ready to walk there with katana in hand.))
