Sarah Ruben (Gerosha Gaming Universe)

Tabitha Mahalia Pang is an outlaw, freedom fighter, and Sodality of Gerosha member, being the leader of a gang called the Twirlflame Trio. This version of her features in Sodality: Battle for Metheel, the Swappernetters Character Pack for The Sims 3, as well as in the Swappernetters: Frontliner Story Pack for The Sims 4.

Powers, weaknesses, and accessories
When inheriting Marge's Mapacha del Feugo powers, Sarah inherited most of the same abilities as Tabby; with one key difference: Sarah didn't have the neural ray to incapacitate enemies. Instead, she gained a very limited W axis traversal capability, allowing her to effectively walk through walls on a whim. Therefore, when stealing intel to bring the Tug down, Sarah is the primary thief.

She goes back and forth with Tabby on leading and masterminding operations in the field - that is, when Trista doesn't come up with a better idea first. The two girls feed off each other's strengths. This means that Sarah is the prime burglar; whereas Tabby is usually a decoy.

Early life
Tabitha may have adopted the Swappernetter lifestyle, having been born with the Order of the Oraphim as her real destiny. But Sarah? She was a part of the movement, since long before birth! Sarah lost her family early on, while state officials in Arkansas, prodded on by Obama officials, were pushing Arkansas to eliminate all matter and form of learning apart from the very strict Common Core curriculum.

She was 3, when the FBI in 2015 showed up at her father's door, and blew him away. She managed to escape, hiding, scared, with Sneakernet Underground-affiliated neighbors, while her mother was slaughtered like an animal. She always wished she could uncover answers as to why her family was subjected to a Ruby Ridge-style massacre. Yet, she feared she'd never know the real reason. Perhaps what angered her the most...was that the news media never even made mention of it, not even on local news! It was as if her family never existed!

Theories raced throughout her head from age 11 onward. Was that really the FBI, or were those FPB in disguise? Were they Hebbleskins? UN? NWO? Screwworms? CIA? LGBTQPIZON militants? Phaletori? Rogue SCALLOP agents? Who hated the Ruben clan enough to pose as FBI, and slaughter everyone they could find in the house? No single answer seemed any more or less credible than the last one. But the lack of any media coverage told her that it was someone powerful, who had a lot to hide - and needed her parents dead!

She jumped around from foster to foster since her parents' demise, a drifter in the world - seeing the entire world as her real classroom. The idea of swapping lessons on flash drives, and living freely apart from that, always appealed to her. The thrill of needing to avoid capture by statists hellbent on taking that freedom away from her, the sense of danger that came with that, only upped her desire to keep doing it. She got to resist evil and resist illegitimate authority, and be a "rebel" in a noble fashion - without having to shame God in order to do it!

Yet, she always wondered if she'd ever be willing to give it all up. If there were ever anything more immediate, concrete, and Earthly, that she'd ever be willing to surrender all that freedom for. What could be worth it?

Capture
Her answer came to her in the summer of 2026. During the Beliah Amendment Enforcement crackdowns, the various still-active factions with vested interests in filling the power vacuum left by the Hebbleskins' defeat came to a head. It seemed like an agenda free-for-all. Discovering that Sarah was an inactive Phexo with potential to become a Centhuen Prototype, SCALLOP's new director, Lex Philippine, wasted no time trying to secure her internment at the SCALLOP Juvenile Containment Center. He reasoned that if she ever manifested, she'd be viewed by the Screwworms as a new Ciem. They remembered well what Candi McArthur and Michelle Winston had done as Chilopod Crusaders, and were hellbent to ensure there'd never be another one!

Around that time, the ultra-leftists in power in Arkansas (who got in via vote fraud) decided that the best approach to dealing with an aggressive new Rappaccini onslaught - was to simply give Arkansas to him! The need to capture Kirby Act targets for their safety, while also coordinating Team Spaghetti Liberation behind everyone's back, led to SCALLOP's Lex Philippine deciding that protecting Arkansas was a low priority. The Phaletori, and the growing situation on Phaeleel, only further complicated matters.

With multiple factions all after the Swappernetters for one reason or another, Sarah and her then-current professor found themselves in a dire situation. In order to give her professor a chance to escape; Sarah agreed to go with SCALLOP. On trumped-up charges of trespassing, among other details, they placed her in SJCC as an Altered Delinquent - low-level threat. She became cellmates with Tabitha Pang, and introduced the latter to thinking like a Frontliner.

The two girls would help themselves, Jordan Sterlie, Frank McArthur, and fellow Frontliner Tobais Reno to escape from SJCC alive, when the Screwworms ovewhelmed it. However, they were unable to save the hundreds of others inside - who were killed with poisonous gas. Jordan reassured Tabby of his love for her; but that he needed to relay to the Navyropes what all was going on. He promised to become a Frontliner, and would wait for her to join him.

Tobias decided that he needed to take his chance at freedom. In case Jordan didn't find Tabby, someone else would have to. However, escorting Frank to safety meant that Tabby would need to stay behind in Texas - and turn herself in. Sarah decided to stay with Tabby, so the latter wouldn't be entirely alone and without an ally in an Arkansas juvenile center.

Tabby and Sarah would become like sisters, and live that way for the better part of three years at Mansfield. Most of the staff was surprisingly supportive and morally encouraging - until the final few months, when supportive and caring staff were deemed "traitors" by the Chrome Kite. Brutal new staff were put in charge - which led to Maurice the Ferryman directly threatening harm to anyone who tried to kill the girls while they were inside Mansfield.

Escape
Due to Plum Bixie and Shaniqua Tamery's meddling, an attempt by said Chrome Kite goons to kidnap the two girls and assassinate them in Ameristan was foiled. Tabby and Sarah met up later with Tobias in Little Rock, and became part of Trista Clarion's cabal.
