Background:

Eclipse grew up in a triad controlled part of Hong Kong with her two sisters, her uncle ran a noodle restaurant in Kowloon area, consequently he had to pay the triads protection money. Her father was never around much as he was in the navy and travelled quite a lot. From an early age Eclipse started to hang around with the local Triads in the area, she had always been a bit wild and her friendly nature and good looks made her a natural hit with them and she was soon helping them out with moving packages around the area. This gave her the opportunity to make more contacts outside the Triads. While she was doing this she got hooked on pirated Hong Kong action films as they were big business for the Triads, so much so that she even started to learn Kung Fu and how to use two guns so she could do what they did in the films. Being ambidextrous she found that she was a natural at using two guns at the same time.

However it all went wrong when she got stopped in a planned operation by a young Knight Errant detetective called Kenjo Tan. She got caught with a kilo of cocaine, he had hoped that as she was young she would crack under pressure and tell him who was smuggling the drugs. Eclipse who had been brought up with the mentality that all cops are corrupt told him nothing, Detective Tan persisted as he knew she would be a valuable source of information if he could get her to talk. Eclipse realised she was in a bad situation but saw there was a way out, she could give him some information in return for him helping her get a reduced sentence and then helping her out and giving her information when she got out of prison. He agreed and she was sent to prison for 3 years.

During those years she met a few people and made a few more contacts. When she got out she started seeing Detective Tan, it started as a business relationship but developed into something a bit more serious. She stopped working for the Triads but continued an underworld existance. This didn't sit well with Detective Tan and they broke up a couple of times before getting together again, on a trial on again off again sort of relationship.

She continues to work in the underwold, negotiating for people and doing work as a low level fixer. She keeps in touch with all her contacts and when she can she puts work their way. She can usually be found at a drinking den called Moe's Tavern.
