Already is a new arrival to the commune in Bluffington Beach. They used to drive an armored truck for the grocery app Potato Potat.to through the area each week. They no longer have this truck but they know its hidden location (although they do not know if it still works). They are unwilling to talk about what happened to lead them to abandon their truck.
They had spent some time in the Remnants and got into delivery work that way. Through this work, they were able to acquire a cell phone that still gets service from Potato Potat.to. It is a limited company phone with a solar panel on the back. This battery only charges when the Potato Potat.to app is in use; whenever the phone is used for anything else the battery drains rapidly.
Samantha was the first person to offer them a stiff drink.
Appearance
They are described as having a tired frame, with sagging shoulders as though their body is constantly looking fro something to lean on or lean against. They have short, closely-cropped hair, and a heavy and textured craggy face.
When seen in "Dream Askew", they wear gloves and their old work overalls. The overalls were first said to be from their time working in the metro tunnels of Bluffington Beach. Later, in "Give Way to Open Sky" the overalls were described as their Potato Potat.to uniform, faded green and purple with a shopping cart on the front and an anthropomorphized potato on the back. They keep their overalls zipped down and tied around their waist, showing a mesh top they stole from a nightclub, described as "Rhianna style" in appearance.
Relationships
Duke
Prior to their arrival, they found their dog Duke (originally named Rocky), a small, angry, muscular french bulldog (in "Dream Askew") / pit bull (in "Give Way to Open Sky"). She is two and a half but “still has that puppyness about her”. Already has not had time to train Duke, although she does know how to do one trick.
She is often fed scraps from Samantha's Bar and loves Samantha. Duke chases gophers out of community garden and rowdy customers out of Samantha’s bar.
When making deliveries, Duke sat up front with them.
Abilities
When society shoves you out, you don’t really have time to process. You need food, shelter, friends. The Arrival found their way to the enclave. Can they barter a measure of amnesty into a permanent home? The Arrival is an individual in flux. Their power is contingent, technical, and suspect.
- Whenever someone gives you an opportunity to prove yourself to the community, they gain a token.
