Buzz is a Storm Lord Ithaeur member of the BMX (Black Moon Extreme) Pack in Colorado.
Background[]
Buzz knows who shot JFK. It was a multilateral conspiracy between the CIA, an ancient vampire king and the Azlu. She claims that Kennedy was aware of the idigam who manifested in Roswell and was going to use his authority as a member of the secret government agency code-named Majestic-12 to form a paranormal task force to shut them down.
A lot of people think Buzz is nuts, but she doesn’t care. She knows she’s right. Her packmates believe her (they say) and that’s all that matters. The exact nature of The Truth changes, depending on what the spirits tell her and what she reads on the Internet.
For all of her eccentricities, Buzz is a very talented young shaman, and many elders believe that she would achieve greatness someday, if only she’d stop chattering about Grays or MK-ULTRA. The elders also cannot deny that she has good success at tracking don her pack’s enemies (even though BMX chooses to pursue vampires in foolhardy fashion). Her usual method is to retreat into her sanctum at the pack’s hideout. She sits in a comfortable recliner and picks up the remote control that has just one button. When she presses it, a wall of television and computer screens flash on. They’re programmed to flash between random channels and web pages every couple of seconds. She enters a trance state and communes with information-spirits. When she’s done, she’s spiritually drained for a few days, but had some crucial bit of information that leads to the pack’s next target. While these rites do not always lead to the undead, they always take the pack someplace interesting.
Her Fissium fetish is a vampire’s fang, trapped in amber. When activated, it softly vibrates when a vampire is within 1,000 yards of it. The pitch increases as the wielder gets closer to the undead creature. The fetish’s abilities are not selective enough to pick one vampire out of a crowd of humans, for instance, though once they are close enough, the werewolves are able to pick out the vampire by smell.
Buzz shaves her head every few days. She has multiple piercings, which she claims help mask her from NSA monitoring. Although she doesn’t touch drugs, she usually looks a bit stoned. (This is due to her habit of compulsively checking the Shadow Realm every few minutes.) She wears plain T-shirts and jeans or leathers, depending on her pack’s agenda that night.
