[It's a good name. Short and evocative. Mops nods soberly.]

Plague. There was a scientist... a team of them really. They made a disease that destroyed parts of the brain while making the body stronger, and it got loose. A lot of people died outright. The rest... [Mops shrugs, though her face is troubled. The end of humanity-as-it-was bothers her, truly and deeply.] The rest became my ancestors.

I'm not sure I'm a lady. [She's not entirely sure what lady means, either, though it's used in Jane Austen a lot.] If you want to be formal, it's Lieutenant or Lieutenant Adamopolous. Otherwise, it's Marion. And you?

['Mops' is for friends and coworkers, and they're not there yet.]
