Summary
A simple shakedown! Common as hell in the Barrens! This one was just a little spicier than most, because it had some explosive cast members this time around.
Background
Ledgermain is a Black Magic practitioner in the most traditional sense: a con artist, a femme fatale, a total bitch who will run your pockets five ways from Sunday to get what she wants. Unfortunately, she's also genuinely helpful to have around. She's used her business as a talismonger and her staggering charisma to play into a lot of criminal elements to get her way. She's the kind of con artist who gets away with a lot more than she should because of it.
A recent case of this was her attempted dodging of paying a massive loan she took out from the Skraacha. With the news of a gang war swinging around all over the Barrens, she decided to take former (dropout) Cutters members who wanted a new place to work and were maybe a little distracted by her to pose as being Cutter tied - both to scare off small time debt collectors the Skraacha and to make the bigger fish worry she cut some sort of deal. She was hoping it'd buy her enough time to get some more funds, duck out of town with it, set up shop elsewhere, but unfortunately Shadowrunners are *very* convenient.
