I am sure we all have cool stories. Memorable NPCs, that really awesome gang, the corporate product we introduced to our games.

This is where we share them. I'll start off with something I am sad I did not get to do more with in a game, as it ended after only a handful of sessions.

Paco's Tacos: Barrens Cuisine

Paco is a retired Shadowrunner, a former Street Samuraie of some fame and skill from a decade or so back. Paco made the big score of his career, not enough to run off to retire on a sunny island, but enough to finance his dream: Atzlani Cuisine.

Paco operates a food truck in the worst neighborhoods of the city, generally those without much else in the way of vendors. Paco works out of a customized GMC van, painted yellow and red, with a massive AR taco floating above it. The food is cheap, fast, and generally real. Real labgrown beef, frankencorn tortillas and home made chunky salsa.

The local gangers don't give Paco much trouble. He isn't part of them, and he doesn't pay for protection, he provides food and a social outlet without question or judgement. Also, they once tried to muscle in on Paco, and he reminded them of why he was once known as El Pistolero.

Paco is a suitable contact, with moderately high connection and loyalty variable on the character. He is a low level Prime Runner, although much of his gear and implants are dated - his chrome is aged, but functional, and he doesn't have the best IC on his van.
