Firefly is an inhabitant of the Deadlands, a bleak and unforgiving wasteland outside The Strata. She is tough and resourceful, quick witted, sociable and loves spending time with her friends. A long time ago she lived in the city, but eventually grew tired of the rat race and the selfish people who surrounded her. She left the city and went far away to pursue a simple life at a remote outpost. It was here that she finally found contentment.
Recently, however, she has fallen on hard times after being exiled from her home at the small outpost of Drayton Swamp. Now, alongside her friend Grout, Firefly finds herself in a fight for survival in the wasteland. Preferring to scout along the coastline, the pair spend their days looking for supplies - primarily to keep themselves fed. Although even finding the basics is a difficult task, the pair hold out hope that they may be able to find something valuable enough to buy their way back into Drayton Swamp where they belong. Little do they know that somewhere along the shoreline a discovery is waiting that will change their lives forever.

(Responding with disdain after Grout suggests they try selling a newly discovered artifact to a powerful faction in The Strata) “Trust me, the only ‘reward’ those bastards will give us is a bullet to the back of our heads. And besides, how are the two of us going to get inside The Strata without credentials anyway? It’s not gonna happen.”
(Firefly has stumbled upon a secret facility where innocent people are being imprisoned. Here she urgently tries to explain the situation to a couple of newcomers) “Listen to me, both of you.. The man you’re working for - this filthy worm-sucker Dr. Becker - he’s bad news. He’s captured dozens of people and locked them away down here so he can torture and kill them. I’ve heard them screaming.”
(Patiently trying to convince Grout that they should make a trade with a group of people they meet in the wasteland. Grout, for his part, is wary and does not trust them) “So... as far as I can tell, the only thing we have worth trading right now is this thing lying on the deck of our wave-skimmer. Let’s hand it over to these people, and then maybe... just maybe, they’ll give us some rations in return, like last time. After we make the exchange, we get the hell out of here as fast as we can. All right?”
