Additional Contacts
I warned y’all that your contacts became mine if they weren’t defined.
Jason O’Kennan
Jimmy O’Brien
Jimmy’s thirteenth generation NYPD, even if the force went private. His many times great-grandfather was sworn in and kept public order in the slums, and every O’Brien since has worked the street since then. Jimmy is fairly typical for men of his family – short, stout with a drinking problem and too many kids for his salary.
Aside from knowing most of the rest of the NYPD Inc. Brooklyn force, he mainly knows street movers and shakers, and what’s happening in the criminal underground in the city.

Nate Bringham
Bringham is the favorite ID manufacturer of not-quite-respectable Brooklyn. A hobgoblin based out of Cobble Heights who seems to live in Salvatore’s, an Italian meat market and restaurant on Court St., Bringham manufacture ID’s for people who want to go under a different name for reasons that mostly have to do with kids buying alcohol underage and ordering items over the Matrix that users typically don’t want to show up connected to their SIN.
If you need a fake license, a SIN that’s able to beat low level security scans Nate’s your contact. Of course, after so many years in the business he has a good eye for bad ID’s as well.
Specialties – Forgeries, Nightspots, Biometrics
Evelynn Caraway
James Sunderland
James runs his own talis shop, if you can call it that, out of the trunk of his Americar. A fixture in the New York magic community James is the oldest looking human most people will ever meet, and people who’ve known him for 30 years swear he looks exactly the same now as he did when they first met him.
James has thin papery skin, thick wire-rimmed glasses and an ill-fitting tweed suit he wears during all weather, only adding a ratty overcoat in winter.

Jay
Dawn Kowalski
Dawn is a very angry police officer. She trained to be a street cop, her dream since she was a girl growing up in a bad neighborhood. The only problem was she wasn’t good with a gun, and was good organizing files. The NYPD put her in the Records department, where her competence got her promoted to sergeant and doomed her to a life out of a squad car.
Dawn is a fairly imposing 6’2” elf with jet black skin, a shaved head and solid silver cyber eyes. She’s typically dressed in her NYPD-issue uniform with a motorcycle cop’s jacket. She’s also addicted to energy drinks and is rarely seen without one in her hand.
Specialties – Evidence files, criminal records and history, crooked cops.
Takayama Yoshi
Takayama-san is a little-known fixer in New York who runs his business out of his sushi shop. The reason he’s little known is that few people expect a fixer to conduct most of his business over a sushi counter while he’s making the food. Those in the know however order spicy tuna temaki sushi with extra ginger and an Asahi to find the job or talent they need.
Takayama is a heavy set Japanese gentlemen with a bushy mustache who is almost never seen without his headband, sushi chef coat and geta. Given the amount of work that flows out of the same place some people have wondered why he hasn’t been robbed or kidnapped, but his movements with his knifes are so elegant and precise that most of his customers suspect he’s an adept.

Lou Perelli
Lou runs a bar, called Lou’s, near the Brooklyn docks that caters to blue collar types who prefer the bottle to people. The interior looks like it came straight out the 1920’s – low ceilings, dark booths and a few tables scattered around rough hardwood floors, a solid bar with a brass foot rail and tall bar stools. Lou’s opens at 8AM to cater to third shift workers coming off the docks and his bar closes at 2AM and there’s almost always at least one customer nursing their drink. Lou’s is renowned for having just about anything imaginable underneath the counter or on the shelf, and being able to mix any cocktail known to man.
Lou himself is a tall, stringy ork with sandy blond hair, piercing blue eyes and one tusk jutting out from the right side of his mouth. He typically wears work shirts and canvas work pants, and despite his working class crowd he’s never hired – or needed – a bouncer
