A mercenary hirable from A.I.M., first appearing in Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games.
Official description[]
"Like her father, a five-time marksman in W.W.II, Buzz can pick-off almost any target in range. A big fan of the Violent Femmes, Buzz is currently writing her first war/romance novel, entitled, "Under Cover, Under Lynx." She is also a fine source of information."
-A.I.M. Dossier, Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games
"Buzz Garneau's life has undergone some major changes in the past year. She had a major falling out with Lynx; they can barely stand to be on the same planet. Her tell-all book, "Under Cover, Under Lynx," has been rejected by every publisher who's seen it. While all of this has left her bitter, she has been able to channel her anger into her work with firearms.
Additional info[]
Garneau was recently certified as a heavy weapons specialist."

Notes[]
- Skilled but self-absorbed. Was probably spoiled as a child.
- In Deadly games, she's nice enough to be tolerable and an excellent sniper and flanker/explorer at an affordable price thanks to high Marksmanship and Agility. Starts with low time units.
- Snitch, in Deadly Games
- By Jagged Alliance 2, have been taken down a peg or two in the end and never quite recovered.
- Her breaking-up with Lynx and rejection of her supposed masterpiece book by all publishers were both tremendous blows to her ego.
- Buzz and Lynx were in a relationship. He broke it off.
- She hates him, and all men in general because of it. Her pre-recorded message in Jagged Alliance 2 proves so.
- Miserable, malicious and bitter, bitter, bitter.
- Her greatest flaw is the lack of Medical Skill, which means that Buzz must rely on team mates if she gets injured. Hopefully, it's easy to rig a squad with her, for she doesn't hate many mercs.
