Abby Hollander

"A little fire goes a long way."Abby is a Firebrand in the VGO universe. She appears in The Firebrand series as well as the The Viridian Gate Archives.

Background
Abby Hollander was a lead systems architect for Osmark Tech before the events of Cataclysm and 213 Astraea. She helped program Sophia’s quest system. Her father developed late stage cancer six months before release.Robert Osmark threatened to blacklist her in the tech industry if she went. This devastated her, and she chose to work. Her mother refused to join VGO, and so Abby gave her “family” pod away to Jack, hoping he would join and help her figure out the secrets Osmark had coded into the game.

Personality
Abby views herself as "a get shit done, no bullshit kind of person" who doesn’t always make the best choices in hindsight, which really weighs on her. She knows she’s quick to take action, is in love with having fun and doing things herself, but eventually learns to delegate.On all her adventures with her NPC, Otto, she tries to squeeze in a bit of enjoyment. This is a game after all, and she’s a hardcore gamer.

Others likely see her as a caring hard ass. She has high expectations for herself and others, and when someone doesn’t meet those expectations, she can be harsh, but never cruel. She’s always trying to take care of everyone and everything.
