The Chief of Fredra's police force slid the file into her hands, with a clearing of his throat to halt her first before she dove into the reading.

"We were sent this file by the Krienshal force, who have been after this girl for months. So far no actual encounters have been had with her in this town, so... I'm afraid I can't confirm or elaborate on anything in the file."

Tracey nodded, maybe with a tiny hint of disdain in the gesture. A criminal crosses into your city, and you don't immediately make an effort to track them and find out more information for yourself? That seemed sloppily police work to her. She wondered what kind of show this Chief was running.

"Let's see..."

The manila folder flipped open, its crease cradled between her forefinger and thumb as she began to flip through, eyes scanning every last word.

Name: Mirage

Known Aliases: Kaleidoscope

Wanted for: theft, suspect of murder and public property damage

Age: seems about 16 or 17

Gender: Female

Eyes: Pale green, although vague reports of others have come in. Most reports dismissed through lack of photographic evidence.

Hair: Dark brown, worn in ponytail with silver bells.

Tracey stopped there. Silver bells!? she thought, looking now at the chief with even more disappointment, Why, isn't that how the saying goes about tying some bells onto the stealthy cat's collar so you know it's coming? How have they missed finding a girl who wears bells?

The chief seemed to notice this pause of hers, and nodded for her to go on reading.

Height: 5’ 2”

Weight: 115 lbs.

Notes: The criminal carries two knives. An officer reported burn marks left on his hands after disarming her and trying to take one of the aforementioned knives. Criminal wears leather armor. Thought to be capable of magic, although there are only few witnesses of it. Agile. Thought to be colorblind, perhaps even fully. Clever. Potentially very dangerous.

Finally, Tracey closed the case file again and stared into the middle distance beyond the chief, lost in her own thoughts and the new facts swimming in her head. This case... it seemed an interesting one, without a lot of definites. This girl was either a very peculiar thief, or... a dangerous murderer and destroyer of city property. Those were some pretty wildly different extremes. She seemed to have magic... the detective had had bad luck against criminal mages in the past, but... maybe with her goggles, and other gadgets, she'd be more successful.

However this would turn out, she was excited to see it through.

"I'll take the case, Sir!"
