Overview
An avid Matrix browser, Faust is vastly knowledged in the various subforums and communities taking place on the Emerald Grid and beyond. He's skilled at finding various snippets of information both significant and mundane, using his ability to find these within crucial time margins to fund his ever-expanding augmentations. Those that know him have noticed him beginning to slip into irreversible cyberpsychosis, as he speaks more and more gibberish, replacing the vowels O and A for 0 and 1 and apparently translating his thoughts to fluid binary on the fly. In addition he is prone to fits of rage from the strangest things and may hang up unexpectedly during a call. Despite this, he's often valued greatly for his ability to find information, a skill that has remained intact despite his quirks. He's just not the smoothest contact to work with sometimes.
Aspects Description
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Cyberpsychotic | Each time a runner asks Faust for their services, roll the runner's Edge in secret. On a 0, Faust will speak in binary. If the roll is a glitch, he flies into a rage and hangs up, not responding to further attempts to contact him for the remainder of the run. A critical glitch will have him attempt to hack and format the runner's commlink, utterly convinced that the runner is in fact a hated foe. They won't apologize afterwards, either. |
| Supersearcher | Looking for data on the 'Trix is a piece of cake for a legwork specialist like Faust. |
| Seattle Special | When it comes to information about events, people or locations in the Seattle Sprawl specifically, Faust has the home ground advantage. |
| Deep Delver | There's plenty of data out there that is covered, hidden, obscured. It is these morsels Faust desires the most and is most skilled at uncovering. |
