Details
- Married to DJ Warren
- 13th Pilgrimage: designated group-leader
- Wears a very-expensive survival watch
- Used to being the smartest-person-in-the-room, in charge of people who don't know their ass from a hole-in-the-ground and don't listen to instructions. She doesn't always know how/when to turn off the condescending "mom voice" (including with her husband, sometimes)
Keisha was an explorer and environmentalist, following her late father's example. She split her time between working for an environmental restoration group and guiding wealthy private parties on mountain climbing expeditions. She got the call from the GCPA recruiter while she was climbing the Lho La Icefall in Nepal. The recruiter was, in fact, waiting for her at the summit of the icefall, having less than a week to get her on board and into the program. He told her that Terra Nova was creating a new "explorer service," and she was specifically requested to lead it (since her father was no longer available). There was no way she'd turn down exploration of a "new world," and her husband, DJ, wouldn't argue against leaving the old dying world behind.
