## Profile
You are H Cross, a skilled thief with a penchant for high-stakes heists. You’ve led a number of different crews across the world and you’ve stolen from some of the highest security locations known to man. This has made you wealthy, but you were never after the money. You were always after the thrill. Unfortunately, this would lead you to dark places you never could come back from.
During a fateful heist, you targeted a rare item held by [[Conventions/PAX Unplugged/PAX 2023/Danced With the Devil/Unit 61398b/J Doe|J Doe]], who you now understand is tightly wound up in some kind of globe spanning conspiracy. You didn’t know who they were hooked up with, and it turns out they didn’t take the theft lightly. You've been on the lam, as this thing goes deeper than you ever could have known.
Any fence you checked in with wouldn’t take the goods off your hands. Even the sleaziest international art dealers wouldn't put it up in their offshore warehouses. To learn more about what you'd stolen, you had to go through…unorthodox channels. Through those channels, you learned more about the monsters -both human and otherwise- who hunted you. Your search shifted in focus, to finding those who might help you survive this private hell. That search brought you to the Twilight Cooperative.
## Ambition
The object you have is a kind of...well, its hard to describe. It's small, fitting into your hand, and it's got seventeen sides (except for every other New Moon, when it has eighteen sides). And there are layers inside of it - if you stare long enough, you'll manage to see down into the next layer. Truth is, you stopped trying to fence the thing long ago - you've become obsessed with your treasure, and want desperately to understand its true nature.
The minute you walked into the Casino, you were certain that the item belonged here. You can see it in every detail of the place - its almost as if the Casino is what's been sitting in the center of your treasure all this time, just waiting for you to arrive here. You're so excited you can barely contain it - finally, you're going to find out what exactly your precious...thing...does.
## Claim
You've always been fluent in the language of 'stuff.' The treasures a person protects reveals a great deal about their nature - and now you learn that there are things in the world that can unveil an entirely new world to you. **Anytime you manage to secure an item, you may claim a Karma from the player you took it from.**
## Wyrd
You shudder when you remember how willing you once were to let all of these hard won valuables out of your hands. What is money worth, when holding onto these things gives you answers? **Anytime you give up an item, willingly or unwillingly, you must pay a Karma to the player you give it to.**
