Clair's been around many places in the country due to personal affairs and money issues, but currently, she lives within the confines of Reno, Nevada. She's stuck with this place as her long-standing home not only because it's a bit closer to her (former) job, but because it's a whole fuck ton nicer than living in the cesspool known as Las Vegas. It's provided some pretty cool benefits such as being a hot spot for programmer work and of course, being home to a fuck ton of great foods and meals due to being a hot tourist spot.
It also practically gives her a free excuse to work from home nowadays.
Clair used to get her money from a solid programmer job that she had gotten in the area, all thanks to a job fair that had her exchange business cards with a high-up suit from a business company, however, due to a recent downsizing, that job ended up drying up its worth and leaving her with a manageable wallet. Nowadays though, she gets her paydays from mostly working freelance jobs here and there that detail either working on Website CSS, Database Server Optimization, and in some cases, even programming for the odd indie game.
With this money, she mostly spends it on keeping things up like paying off the apartment bills, paying off the bills needed to keep her site up, etc. Though if she has a decent surplus of it, she'll spend most of that shit on things like computer parts/equipment, obscure media CDs/Tapes, and of course extravagant meals.
Before the contracts came and set the warpath for what was to be, Clair's life mostly was just what you'd expect from someone in her position. About average and as normal as things could get. Clair would mostly spend her days waking up, going to work, grabbing dinner on the way home, then heading to bed and repeating the whole cycle again.
It wasn't until the contracts that then she realized that she could finally break this cycle of boredom and not only just that, but also spread the further word of her revelation...
