Streetwise 3: You've heard about the O'shannon family in Chula Vista. You don't know much about their hierarchy, or if they have any kind of leadership. But they certainly seem to be taking orders from somebody.

Streetwise 5: It's not a myth anymore. Almost all of the cartel presence in Chula Vista has been pushed out by the O'shannon family of the Irish mob, and that family is headed up by Lyra herself. She's been exceptionally visible to people at this level of knowing, likely to make some kind of point.

Chula Vista: It's hard to call anyone royalty these days. But if anyone deserves that title, it would be Lyra. She keeps a VERY close eye on the city, and everything that goes on within it.

Alignment: Long story short: Lyra is not a good person! Keep this in mind!

Legitimate Business: Lyra is the owner of the Lady of the Lakes in Chula Vista. An upscale Celtic pub in the Lakes district, and the Lucky Shamrock card room in the Downtown district.

I am not interested in TS. Also, this character can be Not Nice™! The opinions and actions expressed IC are NOT the author's. Promise!
