Appearance

Schenn appears to be a middle-aged Caucasian woman with short hair that is slowly going gray and floral half sleeve tattoos. She is either 5’4” or 6’4”, and enjoys dressing in a rockabilly style.

History

Schenn was born in Columbus and grew up in Delaware County on the farm that belonged to her German immigrant parents. The farm, which was approximately 400 acres, grew corn and soy used for pork production elsewhere in the state. Throughout her youth, Schenn participated in 4H and FFA, raising and showing gilts.

After graduating from high school, she spent five years working as a cross-country long-haul trucker, and then another two years as the mechanic for the same fleet she drove for. When her parents retired, she moved home to take over managing the family farm, and eventually started a recreational blaseball league in her community.

This led her to being recruited by the Ohio Worms in ████. She ascended with the Worms on ████ and returned with the Descension in Season 12.

Move to Chicago

At the end of Season 13, Schenn sold her farm and moved to Chicago to chase her dream of opening a combination speakeasy and bowling alley, which she accomplished shortly after her move. The exact name and location of the speakeasy is unknown, as Schenn has made a point of separating her blaseball career from her personal pursuits, although it is rumored that Lou Roseheart occasionally visits Schenn there.

She earned her volunteer firefighter certification and EMT certification shortly thereafter. As a result in her change of address, she was traded to the Chicago Firefighters and joined the roster as a hitter.

Wanda’s Dog

Schenn’s dog is a male golden retriever, approximately five years old, named Wander. Like Wanda, he is also a cancer survivor. A Firefighters fan favorite, he has been occasionally called “like, the sixth mascot of the Firefighters,” and is much-beloved at blaseball games, where he can be spotted retrieving fly balls in the outfield alongside Schenn and stealing meatballs from unsuspecting fans.

During Schenn’s time in Ohio, he was sent into orbit for approximately ██ days as part of a series of scientific trials. Schenn keeps his official portrait framed on her desk in the Fire House, and has been said to smile every time she sees it.

Wander received his search-and-rescue certification at the same Schenn received her EMT certification, but spends most of his time napping under the counter at Schenn’s speakeasy.
