Contact Ideas, Non Canon and less Common Options

[stevebugge]

This thread is for Brainstorming / Sharing ideas for more unusual non-canon contacts and their potential uses. Sure everyone has their Fixer, Mechanic, Street Doc, Talismonger, Lawyer, Yakuza Thug, and Ganger. For the most part the listed Canon Contacts cover everything you'll most likely need. This is an opportunity to pull out that unusual niche idea for a contact you want to share, maybe because it relates to your RL job or experiences, or you just had a crazy idea for a character or run and you really needed say an engraver or a taxidermist to make it work.

So my first contribution:

Movers.

Stats I might add later, but figure higher physical lower mental.

In 2065 most moving crews are composed of low income low education Orks or Humans. Most companies prefer to hire Orks when possible because of their greater strength while still being able to fit easily in most truck cabs and residences. These guys are the frontline of the relocation industry, carrying the load both literally and figuratively. They do have their uses though, one might just get you inside a corp enclave as hired on casual labor, moving companies with corp contracts do background checks but nothing too serious. In addition they have been inside just about every apartment and condoplex in their area, and for a fee can probably recall the layout in pretty good detail.
