Vivienne "Viv" Sparks
Vivienne Sparks (a.k.a. Viv)
Vivienne Sparks is a SHARP, a punk, and a street kid. She wanders from town to town with only a few contacts to help her with her endeavors.
Viv was always violently egalitarian, getting into fist-fights at school when bullies went to far - in her eyes. The staff seldom agreed with her assessment.
She was always very smart, but she found her smarts were best used to manipulate people and get out of tricky situations. She is very good at reading people and using opportunities.
When she was 17, she dropped out of high school, tested for her GED and passed, then disappeared. Her mother was heartbroken but unsurprised. A cousin of her mother's tries to keep tabs on her, though. This cousin is none other than Det. Brett Ames.
The fact is, Viv knows how dangerous her work is to herself. But she also knows that Ames will have her back anytime she shows up. He might not like how she works, but he appreciates the goal.
