I got the Aztlan sourcebook and I have no idea who some of these folks are-

Hecate?
Jungle Cat?

If you believe Lone Gunman, Hecate is the woman that runs the Atlantean Foundation.

And Laughing Man is Harlequin, right?

The Immortal Elf?

IIRC, yes, Harlequin is the Laughing Man.

He tends to get things wrong from time to time, and his insight is often questionable (he refused to believe all the proof that Ghostwalker was Icewing, for instance, until they all but came out and said it in Dragons), but he does have a pretty decent database for things like this.

Well, that solved that.

I went back and forth on the Icewing/Ghostwalker thing. On the one claw, when I first saw it my thought was "Icewing!" On the other, we got joshin' about it in the forums and I said he wasn't. Then SotF came out and proved me right/wrong, which is a good thing.

Argent plays in my gaming group. No, I'm not kidding.

Who would be the Chromed Accountant?

I always wondered about that.

Posted by: moosegod Dec 3 2003, 09:15 PM

I think he's just a meta who knows his stuff. I haven't seen any links to anyone else in his posts.

Posted by: Ancient History Dec 3 2003, 09:29 PM

If I remember correctly, he was a shadow decker affiliated with the IRS for a time, but I'd have to look up the references again.

Posted by: Grimtooth Dec 3 2003, 09:40 PM

was the neon samurai considered a decker or was he just a poster?

IIRC he was the on with the beef about the Ares lasers.

Posted by: Grimtooth Dec 3 2003, 09:41 PM

Also wasn't Nightfire affiliated with ARES too?

I'm cheating. I'm sitting at work thumbing through Corporate Download.

Chromed Accountant was an IRS company man who decided it was more profitable to go into the private sector. Corp Shadowfiles

Neon Samurai was the one with the beef with Ares, mainly because he blames them for his father's death and they responded by saying HE did it. SSC, FoF

Nightfire is a Ares company man decker. SSC, CD

I'm glad the Neon Samurai seems to be dead. The man was a pud.

On the other hand, I'm sad Matador is dead/has gone into hiding (depends on who you ask - there's some speculation he faked his assassination). I liked him.

SOTA, I think. Apparently he got sniped in the dome by someone. Mentioned by his XO, 'Picador'.

Or if you mean the faking his death part, no, I don't have a canon reference for that. I don't own SOTA, and haven't personally looked into it. Apparently there's some kind of contradictory mention of Matador showing up for something after he's supposed to be dead, though.

I'll look into it.

Posted by: Fortune Dec 4 2003, 12:49 AM

I meant the latter, which is why I bolded it.

I've read pretty much everything, but don't recall anything like what you are describing in regards to Matador not being dead. If you come up with a reference, please let me know.

Posted by: Adarael Dec 4 2003, 12:57 AM

I should've stated more clearly - 'it depends on who you ask' means I was told by a generally knowledgeable friend of mine that there's contradictory info.

I personally don't know. If I find anything, I'll post it.
