QUOTE (Kanada Ten @ Jan 29 2008, 05:55 PM) *
The Pretty Girl Scout

With an uncanny eye, he can spot a pretty girl - even under the layers of dirt smeared on her face. A natural sense for which smile which brighten with age, which bodies bud sooner, which biting of lips indicates a docile young child. He knows the neighborhoods, knows the troubles, knows the tribes, knows the time to arrive in his shiny black car - how much muscle to bring, or how little. And he knows how much money each prize is worth, both to her parents and to his clients.

"I'll give you two-hundred nuyen for her, and another fifty for her brother. Boys are always more trouble, you know."

"You're crazy, she's worth five hundred, and the boy will be good muscle once he's broke."

"They would only starve if I left them in that drekhole. Here, they have a chance; here they can be a star. I give them that chance. Do you hear them complain?"



Gross!

I got nothin', but my girlfriend (who hasn't played SR, but wants to) keeps coming up with stuff. [skills omitted cuz I'm lazy]

Maid
She might not be a power broker, but she knows more than she's letting on. She's got her nose in everyone's garbage, literally. And she knows the dirt on the rich and famous.

Street Mime
Sure, nobody likes them. They are the very symbol of annoyance. And yet they can blend into the crowd if they need to. Like a ninja, a mime is often forgotten when he doesn't speak.

Receptionist
Speaking of invisible people, everybody forgets the receptionists, even when you hit on them. And yet, they know who comes and who goes, and who is calling whom.

Building Cleaning Crew
Without OSHA, unions, or a minimum wage to bother them, hiring meat cleaners is actually cheaper for the corps than cleaning drones. These are people with access to secure areas and to other people's dirty laundry, or at least their trash.

Accountant
Most people don't even know their accountant's name, and yet they know what happened to every nuyen those people didn't claim on their taxes.
Minus the mime, this is the best combined set I've seen.

The Free-Runner

One of the few human teenagers who managed to carve out a living, this kid managed to make it by running small packages, "business" to "business". You strongly suspect that she's a low-order adept with some real potential, which makes the data vault installed behind her ear all the more painful to the eye..

Average stats, some basic free-running gear, carry bag, gecko gloves. Data vault behind the ear. Minor adept powers related to agility and free-running. Athletics skill group is remarkably high. Knowledge skills regarding city layout and rooftop "highways". Maybe a little karate or Aikido.
