Barbara Kwashi She was born into a large, low-income family, with her parents, grandparents, and five siblings huddled together in a small apartment. Unfortunately, her father had a gambling problem. With his violent temper, the rest of the family feared confronting him. Her older siblings moved out as soon as they could, her grandparents eventually passed away, and her mother--now tired of her father-- found someone else and moved out, leaving a young Hatty behind. Her father eventually lost the house, taking his remaining daugher with him to live on the streets on the outskirts of Night City. She spent much of her childhood roaming aimlessly without supervision, living in a long since abandoned camper van, and learnt to fight fiercely for everything she had. At some point, she managed to get her hands on a Cyberdeck, and that Cyberdeck became her world. Unfortunately, feelings of abandonment and resentment left a mark on Hatty, eventually bearing a young woman that withdrew from society and indulged in Virtuality. Although she often dealt with Nomads and Fixers for work, she never truly connected with anyone. Despite her ornery and somewhat violent disposition, she hadn't offended anyone enough to make any enemies. Her straightforwardness and blunt honesty, however, made her a reliable Netrunner, giving her value as a freelancer.
