Overview
Fights everywhere are handled by two factors: information and firepower. Daniel Glenwood handled the first part during his stint as a member of a PMC. Long since defunct and not at all keen on pulling up old names, he is more than willing to let sleeping dogs lie. The only reason the bloodhound of a man gets into this business anymore is when someone he appreciates comes knocking on his door, and when he thinks he can give them an edge on meeting the right folks. Plus, even in his early retirement, he still finds quite a bit of money in trading what he can find out himself or through some convenient connections, even if those are dwindling right now.
GM Notes
- Stern guy, but doesn't play hardball on rates
- Expect straightforward and blunt answers, along with commentary if he thinks a runner is doing something stupid.
- He can fight, but wont fight battles for others. Just a note that he can defend himself just fine.
Aspects Description
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Skeptic | Glen's the kinda guy to double check any research he gets with his own. Which means he'll be thorough and you'll get good info! Just...a lot slower than you might like! Double the time to come back with information |
| Heat | Glen is a smooth operator, and an experienced one to boot. Unfortunately, due to his preference to going into places to do physical legwork or doing his own searches, he's liable to not dig too deep if shit seems too close to something above his paygrade, but he'll stick around longer if you're a close friend. If Glen finds evidence that you're dealing with a group of a threat level higher than his connection + loyalty, he's out. He'll let you know you're in deep shit, and then dip. |
| Tech Savvy | Daniel's work has left him very competent on the matrix. He's all for doing his own searches to get a read on what you're looking at for a target. +2 to searching for information one could find through a matrix search |
| Let's double check | Daniel prefers to do his own research, but helping someone else out with theirs means he can get his mitts on it and make sure they aren't skimping. He can make a knowledge check to teamwork with a matrix search if you pay him, but this subjects it to his Skeptic quality and double the time of the matrix search |
| Three big questions | Glenwood isn't just an informant on gossip and the like. He can scope out preliminary defenses a target or a site might have pretty safely. Just keep the Heat aspect in mind. |
| Ex merc | He hates it, but he still has some connections to that mercenary background. +2 to knowledge checks on PMCs or mercenaries. |
| Military adjacent | You don't get far in the merc business if you don't understand the opposition, and he's seen it all. +2 to knowledge checks regarding military forces or tactics |
