Background: Johnny Rotten grew up on the streets of the Redmond Barrens in
Seattle. Being very thin he was often picked on by most of the other, larger
children. The only way he was able to survive was by making deals. He
had a
talent for not only finding wanted items, but also for getting the best
prices
on them. Little else is known about Rotten, save the fact that he has a
long-standing freelance relationship with Fuchi Seattle.

Johnny Rotten is a thoroughly disagreeable man, often wearing torn and
tattered
clothes and purposefully not bathing for days on end before a business
meeting.
He has never given an answer for his behavior, but it is assumed that he
delights in offending people, especially corporate types.

Skills: It is assumed that Rotten has very little, if any, combat abilities.
However, he has a distinct talent for acquiring goods, regardless of their
legality or rarity.

>>>>>[Hehe. This guy is great. Not only can he get almost anything you
could
want, but he loves to annoy those corp types. Seeing their faces is
worth the
price of admission.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Yeah, well I just wish he would learn to bath more often.
Sometimes I
think he goes out and looks for foul stenchs to roll in.]<<<<<
--Okie Girl<06:37:44/1-7-56>

>>>>>[The best place to find him is at the "Neon Blue Iguana", a
small modern
jazz club Downtown that is a favorite of corptypes, especially Fuchi
suits and
the runner called "the Whistler". Great club, but I have no clue as to
why they
even let Rotten in the door. They even have a special booth reserved for
him.]<<<<<

certain aura about him. Depending on the situation, use either the
higher or
lower number as his Charisma.

are also looking for someone who is incredibly obnoxious.
