Valerie Morgan (Valkryie) is a Wednesday-esque juvenile sniper. She's a Goth, heavily into the whole death, angst, and oh-god-aren't-I-cool scene. Black, straight hair, black kohl around her eyes, black lipstick, black fingernail polish, lots of silver rings, black clothes. Thin as a rail and about as expressive; her longest sentence to date has been the extended "pop" of a thick wad of Juicy Fruit. She may or may not be the daughter of a wealthy corporate, but she plays the cello proficiently and she has a taste for real food.
Well, she breaks down the Barrett, lugs it to a roof, reassembles it, and kills PC's from distances of over a mile while singing various Cars songs:
"I don't mind you coming here . . .and wasting all my time-time . . . 'cause when you're standing oh-so-near . . . I kinda lose my mind . . . "
No, she doesn't put the Barrett in her cello case. Sheesh, what are you? Weird?

Yeah, you could probably make a better one. I admit it. But let's do some arithmetic:
Reflex 10 (unboosted). She's got a base 21 to hit, since the Barrett has an accuracy of 10 with its add-ons and her Targeting gives her an additional 1. This bumps 3, to 24, when her Sandevistan Speedware is up (which it will be, if she has a PC in her sights). Under ideal conditions (in the dark), thermo adds in an additional point for a grand total of 25.
For all of you out there screaming, "Munchkin! Munchkin!", just take note of the fact that this kid is designed to wipe out powerhouse PC groups from a long distance away. It's humor, people! She's not a PC! Deal with it! Plus, the ammo costs a shitload:
The Barrett fires accurized .50 (12.5mm) rounds, costing
between 50eb and 200eb apiece:
What, you've never had the urge to minimax? Sinner!
