Willow's Grifter: Rabbit (odinvincent2011)

Name: Rabbit, like the cereal mascot

Age: Wouldn't you like to know? Fine, early twenties, but that's all you're getting.

Gender: Female, probably

Mastermind: Rabbit was hired by Willow for reasons she can't quite fathom. Ms. Zheng, being as organized and logical as she is, should never in a million years have hired someone as spontaneous as Rabbit. Maybe it's some ego boosting attempt to tame the chaos that swirls behind Rabbit's eyes, or maybe she was the only grifter available. Either way, she's got bills to pay and if Ms. Zheng wants to give herself an ulcer trying to deal with a chaotic grifter, that's her problem.

Expertise: Rabbit has a gift for subtle manipulation. For her, lying is easier than breathing and is just as instinctual. Grifting, therefore, is just one of her areas of expertise, the other being interrogation. She can charm her way past most security measures and can get secrets out of the most airtight of lips in a matter of minutes. If charm doesn't do the trick, Rabbit has a few unsavory methods of information extraction that she's more than happy to use. Elaborate? No thanks.

Mugshot: Unlike most grifters, Rabbit doesn't feel the need to hide her true identity. She doesn't really have one outside of her criminal enterprises, so silly disguises are deemed inefficient and unnecessary. She has an average face and an average build and, strange fashion choices aside, her only two identifying factors are her naturally white hair and her geometric tattoo of a rabbit with a pocket watch on her lower thigh. Wigs work fine for the hair, and unless you're one of her marks, you won't get close enough to see the tattoo. She dresses in whatever her job requires, be that a sexy cocktail dress or a hoodie and jeans, but she's most comfortable in her red and black bustier, black thigh highs, fishnets, and her signature white fur coat. Can't forget the gloves, Rabbit never goes anywhere without them. It won't do to go leaving fingerprints all over everything, now would it?

Criminal Profile: It's hard to tell what her real personality is because as far as anyone knows, Rabbit's always playing a role. She's a pathological liar who prefers to know other people's secrets without ever revealing any of hers. That said, most people claim that when she speaks she makes little sense, and that she's probably at least a little insane. Rabbit definitely agrees which is why she makes little effort to change her public image. Insanity and slightly obscure quotes aside, she's nothing if not professional when doing her job and the more sense her speech makes, the more likely it is that she's trying to charm you.

Criminal Record: Not much is known about Rabbit or her introduction to the criminal underworld. She just appeared one day, steadily making a name for herself as the uncrackable girl who trades in secrets. Despite few efforts to hide her identity, it's notoriously difficult to hire her, as Rabbit is extremely picky about what jobs she takes on. Some claim that her older brother got her started, others that a notorious cleaner named Clarence had something to do with it. All anyone can agree on is that she got started much too early for her own good, and that she probably stays due to poor social skills or extreme psychological problems. She's been arrested for solicitation once or twice, although she's never actually solicited anybody and was never charged, although that might have more to do with her "charming personality" than the cop's lenience.

Signature: Rabbit is a collector of sorts, but it's not jewelry or money she's obsessed with. She collects secrets and stores them in her brain for when she needs them most. If she could survive off of information she would, but unfortunately bills have to be paid. At this point in her life, Rabbit has so much dirt on so many people, she would qualify as any FBI agent's dream informant. However, Rabbit is anything but disloyal, and though many have tried over the years, she's kept those secrets locked away inside her brain, only using them for leverage when absolutely necessary. Other than that, she does have a penchant for collecting various Alice in Wonderland and rabbit themed knickknacks, but she's perfectly willing to pay for them if she has the money.

Other: She'll never reveal this, but underneath that crazy exterior is a burning desire for revenge. Rabbit wasn't always like this, and the person that made her this way will pay some day. Rabbit's been planning her revenge for over ten years, and when the time comes, God help any person or thing that tries to get in her way.
