Well I seem to be the only one not part of the ongoing Highlander/Spider thing.
Not that I mind, I'm still living the liesure life off of the paYen I made on
the OverDrive run . . . So I'm not complaining . . . Fragg! I'm bored. Anybody
out there got info to trade?
Speakin' of which -- Somebody asked about Sal Paradise.
I scored the data. Sal Paradise has the street rep of your average BodyJackal.
He is supposedly good at what he does, but a real sleazebum - sell his mother
for a yen. He inevitably works for the nastiest of people: Seretech, Yamatetsu,
the Red Claw gang, etc... Because of his rep noone will work with him, so he
preys on newbies, naive, or inept. He gets them to do his dirty work - then fra
ggs them. End Report.

Just for fun I compiled a list of all the kinds of Drekheads who Shadow
Runners have to deal with in the shadowworld: Mafia, Yakuza, Tongs, Triads,
Seolpa Rings, NarcoTraffs, Posses, Russian Breetva (Razor) gangs, Hit Squads,
Merc Crews, Assasination Groups, Death Squads, Thrill Gangs, Poser Gangs, Boost
er Gangs, Go-Gangs, BodyJackals, Smugglers, Asain Neighborhood Societies, and
Then theres the Authority slime: Black Ops, Z-Men, Spies, Companymen, Mr. Johns
on.
Did I miss anyone?|<<<<<
