Faith and her sister had seen their mother killed during the [[November Riots]], crushed to death as other's sought to escape. After her mother's death her father became depressed due to guilt to the point of alcoholism. Faith tells Celeste that her father never did forgive himself for his wife's death and neither did Faith, giving away one of the main reasons she ran away. She has stated before that she was close to her sister before she ran away and still misses her at the beginning of the game.

		+	One of the Mirror's Edge comics shows a 16 year old Faith rummaging through Merc's lair with a flashlight. When she's spotted she throws a few punches before being shoved into a chair by the curious Mercury. Merc said that he didn't know and never really asked what Faith was looking for that night, but said that there was something about her that was promosing.
		+
		+	When Merc would show up in the morning to train Faith, she would be there right in time. Merc said that while training Faith she made alot of mistakes but never quit. This attitude was demonstrated throughout the game more times than one.

	The protagonist of the game, Faith is first seen returning to active duty after her recovery. [[Celeste]] runs her through a training course set up by Mercury, which finishes in them engaging in friendly combat. As the story continues, Faith is drawn into a web of lies and deceit surrounding her sister and the murder of a mayoral candidate, [[Robert Pope]]. Faith takes it upon herself to unravel these secrets and find out the truth in order to prove Kate's innocence. Faith discovers that Pope was killed because he discovered [[Project Icarus]], a privately funded plan to control the Runners. She discovers also that Celeste is part of Icarus, and that it was her that killed Pope and [[Travis Burfield]], whom Faith was interrogating at the time to learn more about Pope's murder. Eventually Faith resorts to springing Kate from a police convoy however this results in the destruction of Mercury's Hideout and the death of Mercury. Faith follows the attackers to [[The Shard\|the Shard]] building where she rescues Kate and presumably disrupts the progression of Project Icarus.

I seem to spend most of my time running from cops or the SWAT for some reason across rooftops, they seem to have gotten pretty gun happy. Next I see if I have any missions as a runner. I really hate going into elevators with signs saying "Newest Threat To Children: RUNNING" it's quite annoying. The rest is a secret mystery.

Neostead 2000

-	The '''Neostead''' is a unique Shotgun found in [[Mirror's Edge]]. Found in a few chapters, the structure is lighter than most two-handed weapons, which is great if the player needs to run in closer to be in shotgun range with the enemy. It seemingly does not have as much ammo as the [[Benelli M3 Super 90]], but it does have a slightly better damage rating if only some of the shotgun blast hits the enemy (compared to the M3).	+	The '''Neostead 2000''' is a unique Shotgun found in [[Mirror's Edge]]. Found in a few chapters. The structure is very heavy, causing the player to run slowly and jump very low (about 25% as high as jumping with no weapons equipped) which is a very bad disadvantage if the player has low health, indicated by a darker gray screen, or if the player has to run somewhere quickly. When you are holding this weapon, Faith can't use any of her running skills (speed vault, climb, pole swing, ETC.) except for sliding. It unfortunately only has enough ammo for 3 shots, but it does have a slightly better damage rating if only some of the shotgun blast hits the enemy so it is smart to get close to the enemy when holding the Neostead 2000.

They are primarily used to get from one level of a building to another, though as far as gameplay goes, they serve as a temporary place of respite for the player to regather themselves after an intense chase.

They are primarily used to get from one level of a building to another, though as far as gameplay goes, they serve as a temporary place of respite for the player to regather themselves after an intense chase. Oddly, when inside the elevator, the player can only move, and cannot jump or attack, but if you look closely, when you have Faith run into the door of an elevator on the inside, her hand wearing a glove will be fatter and whiter than the hand not wearing a glove. During the game, when being chased, Faith's enemies don't seem to follow her into the elevators.

-	Each Elevator is installed with a [[City Eye]] vid screen, depicting the news in text based format. Various articles are displayed, usually in the format of propaganda. Such articles seen have referenced the "November Riots", "How you know someone is a Runner", "New Threat to Children: RUNNERS", "Avian Flu here to stay?" and several other political and commercial references, even going as far as to warn citizens of what they listen to on the radio. There has only been one unsolicited message on the City Eye viewscreens, located in every elevator inside [[Robert Pope]]'s office building, voicing a claim that the current, dystopian, state of the city is wrong and that change must be exacted for the moral benefit of the populace.	+	Each Elevator is installed with a [[City Eye]] vid screen, depicting the news in text based format.

	In two situations (during chapters 4 and 9), you must climb out of an elevator via the escape hatch on the ceiling. As the escape hatch isn't one that falls, it is unknown how the [[Blues]] don't notice the door hanging from the ceiling, or anything else symbolizing it's open.

A downloadable time trial map for Mirror's Edge. Unlike the time trial maps that come with the game, you are not in a city or planet earth at all, you are actually in a big map full of floating bricks and blocks in a place with a blue sky like Earth. This map is a very difficult map for most new players, so I would suggest practicing very much before taking on any of the downloadable time trial maps. All of the maps require players to be able to quickly scan an area and jump without thinking but know they will be safe.
