Fanon:Isis Stone

Isis Stone is the sim which was imported from the event "Create-a-Sim" which still is open. The sim is created and submitted by Starmoonie, and as such credits are due to Starmoonie where it is due. Isis Stone is the new relatively ambitious sim who stepped into the relatively obscure town of Starlight Shores, which had not yet been reconnoitered by Ecclesiarchal forces. Although Isis is supposedly a criminal under a boss, Isis's real source of income is her role in the black market, especially benefitting from the recent preparation-craze in Bridgeport ever since Kallisto's bombardment of the said town. Isis also has Akio Isador as an accomplice, who also serves as a Magician taking advantage of his status as a psyker, using the stage name "Baker Librarian."

Aspirations
Isis Stone, unlike the likes of Kallisto, didn't have a huge amount of funds to begin with. Isis had to work from the scratch, starting out as a part of the lower class. Isis however knew that work as a petty criminal isn't going to cut it: fortunately, Isis always set Kallisto as the "archrival" to topple, and as such knew Kallisto's holdings and dealings with the outside pretty well. Despite lacking the data regarding Kallisto's underground deals in the 3rd timeline, Isis was able to do something similar: selling much desired goods to warring factions, and in this case, selling plasma fruits to the feuding vampires in Bridgeport. Although Isis herself was only a small vendor (especially due to a lack of reliable supply, and much less production), Isis was able to easily supplement her meager income, and despite not noticeably jumping economic classes, definitely earning enough cash to stay afloat. While dealing in the black market, Isis found what she thought was an incredible fruitcake Akio Isador (who himself dealt there as a minor vendor): Akio was childish, clearly the kind who wouldn't even know about the black market. Isis thought Akio to be a cunning guy in disguise, and decides to offer him a partnership, which he accepted although he noted that Isis was boring.

When Akio was taken in, all of his assets (which amounted to very little) was added to Isis's asset, and Akio decides to take up a job as a Magician, something that he wished to be before his short career as a vendor, he wished to be one, only to end up as a baker. Isis didn't mind the extra income: Akio was rather inept in the realm of business, and Akio sticking to his role as a vendor would generate far less income. Isis needed the income, if Isis was to expand: her goal being nothing less than a domain in which to generate income and splendor no less than that of her self-proclaimed archrival, although Isis had nothing in mind for things like laws and ideology: mind you, Isis would happily accept an increasing population in one way or another, while Kallisto would be happy to forgo that if it meant no romance.

Opportunities to be seized
Later on, Isis was given an directive by a local crime boss to deliver a package to a local partner-in-crime at France. However, that would have meant that Isis would have to drain her hard-earned surplus cash. Needless to say, Isis decided to hold out on the directive for the time being, as Isis did not want to risk losing much needed money. From that point onward, Isis decided to put up a facade of an ordinary citizen, even if it meant retarding her monetary growth, betting on Akio's career to make up for the loss. While Isis dealt with the black market, Isis also attended sport games like an ordinary citizen and attended concerts like an ordinary citizen. Needless to say some of the fellow criminals took well with Isis' roleplaying, although not many were able to emulate Isis' behavior despite the fact that most of them were sane.

After hitting a "gold node" on the black market, Isis eventually prepares to travel to France, but is held back for quite some time due to technical errors. However, Isis did manage to build up a criminal holding of her own, and eventually ended up building her own power base, although given the likes of the local crime boss, Isis was rational enough to look to the crime boss as a suzerain.

Nevertheless, Isis held firm to her dream for a fiefdom. Eventually Isis made a deal with the Bridgeport Vampires, specifically Elvira Slayers who was cooperating with the Council of Bridgeport, and soon was having an additional income of up to 800§ per week. Having the money, Isis wished to move up the ladder and started to plot the downfall of her suzerain, starting by secretly bribing the suzerain's bodyguard and by subverting many of his operatives. Eventually, Isis was able to leech off plenty of his income, and when the suzerain started to suspect something, Isis went in for the kill, and the former suzerain was forced to be Isis' client. Isis then became one of the leading crime lords in Starlight Shores, and with that came reputation. Isis was often hunted by the law enforcement, and Isis eventually planned to move away to avoid capture.

Sunlit Tides: Reckoning with the Ecclesiarchy
Now that Isis has established a solid base, Isis was ready to take a break from organizing the criminal network in Starlight Shores that she is now the hegemon of. Isis chose Sunlit Tides, hoping to take advantage of the spas over there, as well as to take a foothold in the said region. Taking Akio, who was a critical figure in providing Isis with information regarding the Ecclesiarchy's hostility with the Bridgeport Celebrities, Isis would meet for the first time the figures that she had claimed to be archrivals to topple, or at very least, impress.
