-Suzanne is an average-looking ​caucasian ​girl in her early 20s. Her eyes are intelligent and lively, yet she doesn'​t emphasize them with any makeup. She keeps her hair quite short, so it wouldn'​t fall in her eyes while she's doing something. Everything about her is practical: she wears simple black t-shirts and black trousers, no jewelry or watch. She can be seen in a simple black hoodie brought from one of [CCCs](https://​www.nerd2nerd.org/​chaostreff-wuerzburg/​31c3postera3_3effectblackscreenproof.png) wrapped around her waist. Most of her apparel comes from one conference or another, and she can be often seen with the [Glider symbol](http://​www.catb.org/​hacker-emblem/​) or [Open Hardware logo](http://​www.oshwa.org/​wp-content/​uploads/​2014/​03/​oshw-logo-800-px.png) on her tshirt.+Suzanne is an average-looking girl in her early 20s.

 Most people quicky focus on her right hand, missing a palm and ending clearly with the [wrist](https://​scontent.fwaw3-1.fna.fbcdn.net/​v/​t1.0-9/​12108098_1074075216001311_1033343603226113668_n.jpg?​oh=9d3fcd567f248869f26b0f38dcec36ff&​oe=58867457). There is no obvious scarring - she could have been born like this or lost her hand long time ago. She doesn'​t wear any prosthetic and makes no attempts to hide the stump in public, using it naturally. Sometimes she can be seen experimenting with velcro bracelets to hold a phone or book she uses with the other hand. Most people quicky focus on her right hand, missing a palm and ending clearly with the [wrist](https://​scontent.fwaw3-1.fna.fbcdn.net/​v/​t1.0-9/​12108098_1074075216001311_1033343603226113668_n.jpg?​oh=9d3fcd567f248869f26b0f38dcec36ff&​oe=58867457).

A good backbone for Suzanne'​s story.
