Thought, consciousness, reason, whatever you want to call it, are so-called emergent properties, insomuch as there are no clear physical explanation for them, you just make a complex enough nervous system, and they are just there, they emerge.
Tala is one of these wonders.
A quick (and simple) genetic resequencing to improve her memory left her with an interesting side effect. Something no one would believe and something Corps would kill for.
Tala is, for all intents and purposes, a telepath.

Tala is, for all intents and purposes, a telepath.
She found this out soon after her treatment, and has kept it secret ever since. Tala is a part-time writer and high-level division leader for Infinity Logistics, and on a good day, she 'overhears' enough criminal and corrupt thoughts to feed a lifetime of information-gathering and prison time.
She became an information broker, selling and trading titbits of information, always careful to keep herself in the shadows.
Some fight the corruption of the Corps from the outside, with guns and explosions. Some do it from the inside, with a smile.
A test character. Gave her the Arcane background (Psionics) to see how a telepath would work in New Hades.
