Prometheus, since being reborn in the world with a fully replaced cybernetic body, has always felt that the clinging onto the bodies of flesh metahumans are born into is a failing of the individual. The reluctance of those unfortunates who still clung to their inhibitions reminded it of its prior failings, before it was thrown out and left to die. It is disgusted by this.

Overview
Prometheus, since being reborn in the world with a fully replaced cybernetic body, has always felt that the clinging onto the bodies of flesh metahumans are born into is a failing of the individual. The reluctance of those unfortunates who still clung to their inhibitions reminded it of its prior failings, before it was thrown out and left to die. It is disgusted by this. When the oppressors of the 6th world grow more and more perfect, to deny it is just...not something Prometheus can abide by. Thus, it has done what it can to assist in the remolding of the people in this fair city. Providing a necessary service for the betterment of all, by ensuring the lower classes not being improved through corporate funding still have access to the enrichment that they deserve. Oftentimes this means helping the shadowrunners in Seattle as they can compensate the visionary for the difficulties of finding these pieces of enlightenment. But anyone with scratch who sees the proper path can be forged again with his help.
Aspects Description
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Weakness of The Flesh | Prometheus does not find the additions of biological or genetic enhancements to truly advance the metatypes beyond their flesh-ridden limitations. To it, the only advancement comes from removing and replacing the body, not augmenting it whilst remaining weak. Prometheus will not make acquisition checks for any bioware or geneware for anyone without Loyalty 4 or greater, and even then with a -4 penalty to the check. |
| Teacher and Student | Prometheus's stores and connections stem from their elusive 'teacher', whom it does not allow anyone to see. Wherever the hell they get it from, when it comes to cyberware they have a worryingly easy time getting some. +2 to gear acquisition checks for Cyberware |
| Works of Art | While it mostly focuses on giving people the cybernetics they need in case they have a preferred ripper, Prometheus is still an avid forger of new bodies. Even if it hates the way flesh sounds when it works. +2 to Medicine checks. |
| The truest form of perfection | Oh the joys of getting someone a new body. It is an unparalleled feeling of pride that arises when Prometheus can help someone replace their fleshy limbs, and one it refuses to fail at. +2 to gear acquisition checks for acquiring cyberlimbs |
| Inner Circle | As the fruit of knowledge passes from master down to student before it, the roots grow deeper into the soil. And these roots are deeply entrenched by now-Prometheus has a vast network of contacts to assist with gathering information on cybernetic advancements or business, such as if there are new specialists for the field in the area or if there is word out of a new piece of 'ware on the market. |
