>>>>>[Alright, enough of this drek. We can wallow in self pity, whining about what's happened, what we've done, how we fragged up, and all that happy dragonshit all day long. It doesn't really solve anything, and we know it. This nodes taken a serious downturn, so lets get things back on pace. I need a couple things done, and you're just the bunch of socially maladjusted miscreants to help an old ork out.
I have a couple jobs I could use some locals for. Drop me a private message on my comm, and I can give you the lowdown. Should be relatively low threat, but since my last name ain't Johnson, I won't snowball you. We all know how these "low threat" jobs tend to work out, right chummers?
And Tauren, don't bother. I have something for you and your crew. We'll talk, meatbod to meatbod, the usual place.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Did a little digging after our illustrious Sysadmin's recent postings. Might get Black Hammered for this, but, figured I should share. Always find out everything you can about your Mr. Johnson, even if he doesn't call himself that, as our ork "decker" friend points out. Let me preface with a bit of a history lesson, for those that aren't local and don;t pay attention to national news.
From late 2069 up through early this year, Seattle had itself a Serial Killer. A very active one, quaintly named the Mayan Cutter. He was carving up people, mostly SINless metahumans, and stringing them up like Christmas turkeys on display. He chalked up something like 50 or 60 kills in just over two years, and the bad publicity was one of the contributing factors to Lone Star losing face with Seattle and getting the boot. When Knight Errant set up shop, one of their first priorities was hunting down this killer. They managed to catch him within 6 weeks. Whether or not that's just a tad suspicious, I'll leave it to the conspiracy nuts in the crowd.
In June, the killings started up again, out of nowhere. Rumors started circulating. Did KE get the wrong guy? Was it a copycat? My favorites were that the Cutter came back as a Shedim, or the one about how the Cutter wasn't a single person, but a cult, and each kill was made by a different person. The killings didn't last long, only a couple weeks. The cutter was busy during those weeks and got 5 or 6 people. The last victim was Rebecca MacCallister.
The daughter of our friendly neighborhood ork decker turned fixer.
Yeah, let that one sink in. MacCallister was only playing around at being back in the shadows before that. A couple jobs here and there, mostly working with a couple specific runners. I'll be nice and not out them, as there's a little more to that story. I'll save that as a "Get Out of Hell Free" card, so to speak. Never know when you need to call in a favor from a big dog. Anyway, so after this, MacCallister's been back in the action with a vengeance. He's hitched his wagons to some Metahuman Rights groups that his daughter (also an ork, natch) had been involved with before she died. He's also started butting heads with the Brackhaven administration some. There's rumors that O.R.K. or M.O.M. or some other cute acronym group wants to make Metarights a big ticket ballot item on next years election. Not a big deal to me, I'm all for giving rights to the trogs and halfers and weed-eaters. But, for those of you taken jobs from him, I'd say be careful. If there's one thing worse than taking on the cops, it's taking on the guys that pay the cops.]<<<<<
