Rope is a cat burglar from the slums of Lungmen, who got caught during a botched caper. Sent to Rhodes Island on a special recommendation from Madam Ch'en after Lungmen formed a partnership with Rhodes Island.

Responsible for intelligence gathering. Uses a rope and grappling hook in combat to disorient the enemy.

By the time she joined Rhodes Island, Operator Rope had already missed the best window of opportunity for treatment. Malnutrition and environmental factors put her health in imminent danger.

Currently, given proper care, she is in stable condition. I hope she will continue to take better care of herself.

—Silence

A coy thief.

She smiles at everyone, but it's a polite, distant smile.

Pilfering is second nature to her. She will sometimes pickpocket someone without even realizing it. At least she knows to give it back now.

Rope doesn't begrudge her parents. She knows sometimes a poor family just has to abandon a child or two. At least her parents cried when they kicked her out of the house.

Rope doesn't hate the world either, knowing that no matter how much she curses the gods, it won't give her what she needs to eat. Not to mention all the worse things she's seen from her years in the slums.

Of course, Rope never had any problem stealing. She knew it was wrong, but what could she do?

Rope actually loved prison, since her meals were taken care of, and she got a free bed out of the deal. If it wasn't for the rehabilitation classes, she would've gotten herself caught on purpose.

Of course, she'd still slip up occasionally, but she knew every one of the guards and they were impressed with her thieving skills.

She did wonder if they might actually hire her as a cop. What she never expected was getting 'sold' to a place called Rhodes Island.

Rope still isn't used to life on Rhodes Island.

She gets food, clothes, and a roof over her head. Plus there's a lot of freaks and weirdos here. Nobody looks down on her because of her background, and even when she does steal from them, they just want her to return it with an apology.

With all that, she doesn't need to use any of the survival skills she honed in the slum. It's all very foreign to her.

But it feels... not too bad.
