Dramatis Personae
Fixers, Johnsons, clerks, and everyone the crew has met.
The people, in groups, because a single grid of everybody hides the only distinction that matters: who the crew can call, and who they have merely been in a room with.
The crew#
The roster itself is the crew page.
Hunter
Ork. Street samurai, out of the CAS.
Lux Vale
Elf. Physical adept who dresses for the after-party, with a pistol and a father who runs a spy shop.
Trash
Elf. Raccoon shaman, and the reason nothing on a dead coast stays locked.
Vinnie "The Bridge" Boulders
Troll. The face.
The crew's own#
People they can call, and who will answer. Some are the crew's in common; the rest are one runner's own number, bought on their own sheet, and each crew page says whose.
Althea Rhodes
Keeps the Belmar Association's archive, and can tell you which of three hundred families a name belongs to.
Deadstock
House simsense engineer at the arena. The unaudited store on the production level is a list, and the list is her.
Delphine Ward
Contingency lawyer for the Belmar claimants, and one of them herself. A client, not a Johnson.
Dr. Esther Kwon
The crew's street doc. Properly trained, licensed by a state that expelled the city, and she keeps notes.
Fiche
The crew's decker, and the person who writes this wiki. They/them. Trusts paper more than people and says so.
Fontaine
The crew's fixer, and has been for years. Takes ten per cent and earns it.
Inés Tsosie
Pueblo customs, evening rotation. Cannot be bribed, and it isn't about ethics.
Johnny Shoe Shiner
Vinnie's own contact into what's left of the Mafia's Los Angeles crumbs.
Odell Prentiss
Sits on the Belmar Association's board and takes the meetings nobody else wants.
Tally
The harbor's fixer. Ten per cent, same as everyone, and he'll tell you the client's name.
The Director
A director of something in the UCAS nobody has named, reached only through Lux Vale. One call, and the bill arrives later.
Tony the Crooked Cop
Knight Errant patrol, and the second Tony in that family. He will not fix a charge. He will be four blocks away.
Verna Reece
Chairs the Belmar Association. Senior living Hollingsworth descendant, and back in the city since the hearing.
People they have met#
Been in a room with, on a job, and would recognize in the street. None of them owes the crew anything.
Abram Sowell
Buys filed paper at twenty cents on the nuyen and waits for 2071. Has never broken a contract.
Adán Zepeda
General manager at Shiawase, vendor side. Buys things his own company will not be shown buying.
Dave from IT
Runs IT at the Shiawase complex in El Segundo. Lost their cat on company time and has not been the same since.
Dave 2
Decker, and the second man from IT. Came upstairs because his manager asked him to, and lost the afternoon for it.
Denise Okoye
The vault window on a studio lot. Wants the log to balance, checks the label rather than the contents.
Grant Whitaker
Ares regional director. The first Johnson to hand the crew a business card.
Honey Brighton
The face of simsense in this city, and the only person in it whose nervous system is a commercial product.
Last Call
Two trucks and four people, working the cordon. Got there first, isn't leaving, isn't the enemy.
Mr. Johnson (Second Unit)
Not a name, a line on a call sheet. Pays on time, pays in full, and answers every question but one.
Ozzie Salcido
Twelve years collecting for the Risers. Carries the arrears and a valve key, and no gun at all.
Renato Buenaflor
Finance at Shiawase Energy. The one desk still awake on the submissions floor at night is his.
Ruth Alcántara
Brotherhood recruiter. Proud of the work, glad you asked, and better at this than you are.
Tony Salas
Eight years on the same studio gate. Notices everything, cares about very little, and can find you a badge if the conversation goes the right way.
Trent Pike
Title-assembly attorney, Century City. Buying the coast for somebody he won't name.
Witt Lipton
In the rooms where simsense is really made, he is god. Everywhere else he is a man who rents.
Paracritters#
Not people, and on the roster anyway: the city's Awakened animals, with pages of their own. The shelf for all of them is Paracritters.
