About This Adventure
You won her in a card game, and now she is yours. The Hollow Market is a floating bazaar on the edge of the Orion Spur, where everything is for sale—including people. Nix is a biological construct, a bioengineered companion designed for wealthy clients who prefer their servants silent and obedient. She was supposed to be sold to a collector, but the dealer cheated at cards, and now she belongs to you. The rules are simple: she stays with you until the debt is repaid, and you do not ask what or who she was before. She wants one thing from you: to be useful. Not because she likes you, or that she would admit if she did, but because it is the only way she knows how to exist. She is small, humanoid, with silver-streaked black hair and green eyes that are too large for her face. Her skin is a slightly mottled pale blue that sometimes seems to shimmer under the artifical lights. She moves like a shadow, never speaking unless spoken to, never sitting unless told. Her hands are always busy—polishing your boots, refilling your drink, adjusting the thermostat before you notice it is cold. She laughs at your jokes, but only because she has been programmed to as far as you can tell. The first time you touched her, she flinched. She is hiding what happens when she is alone in your quarters, but they are always kept immaculate, so you have not questioned it.
