Details
A conniving and scheming bitch who was adept at following power and money for her own selfish ends. First entered the game as The Mole's girlfriend, using him to make contacts and once she was introduced to the team it didn't take her long to dump him and start dating Dominic Webb with whom it appeared she would have more success. Webb assisted Wendy with disentangling herself from the Yakuza who demanded protection money from her street clinic. But unfortunately for Wendy, Webb dissapeared on a run for a significant length of time and she was back to scrambling for a man to cling to and take advantage of. Her first port of call was Shade, getting the poor alcoholic drunk before emotionally blackmailing then seducing him. As a good friend to Webb he felt awful about it the next day and refused to have anything more to do with Wendy in that way - which left her feeling resentful and yet still desperate to find someone to manipulate to her own ends. In an attempt to get her clinic working again, she sought backing from the Mafia, and ended up overreaching as she soon found herself in an affair with Jack Newman. In a way it was inevitable, when one goes through life seeking people to take advantage of, you'll eventually come across someone who doesn't take that kind of shit, and doesn't let you get away with it. Jack Newman was too important and high profile to let himself be controlled by a woman, and nor would he allow Wendy to dump him, perhaps his own mistake, giving her no other option but to premeditatedly pull a knife, attack, and murder him. Wendy was too smart to kill him and panic, she had this well planned. She immediately called the man who spurned her, Shade, and pleaded for help. The kind hearted and foolish man raced to help her, and found himself set up as a patsy for the murder of the mafia man - and as Shade had connections with the Yakuza this created a tense situation between both organisations that began slipping closer and closer towards all out war. Shade went to his Yakuza contacts and explained how it was not him - but they turned their back on him, saying they could have no contact with him until the true culprit was handed over to the mafia. Wendy, on the run, went to The Mole for help - and he arranged a safehouse for her. The Mole however couldn't hide this from the team, and explained what he had done. By the time the party went to visit Wendy she had already fled, but not before sending the mafia a message that incriminated Shade - she was doing a very good job of setting him up, and the idea of the mafia out to get a team member outraged one and all and spurred their desires to track her down and have the truth revealed. It took the team a long time, but after several weeks they finally had a lead on Wendy's location and tracker her down. Shade thought to confront her and demand the truth from her, but didn't account for her excellent manipulative skills - and she was doing a good job of trying to talk her way out of everything, until a mafia hired investigator arrived on the scene and started getting involved. The rest of the team turned up and a large argument/debate started. Pins finally despaired of the truth ever been known - and asked the mage that had been with the team for a run if he could get the truth. He did indeed have mind probe - and delved into Wendy's mind to get the truth - and discovered that she had lied to Shade about the way the 'murder' happened.
