Overview

"Perfect Authentic Cadence" refers to a certain chord progression in music theory in which a piece ends on what is considered aesthetically pleasing to the classical ear. P.A.C. themself is a mysterious troll full-body replacement with extensive, obvious cyberware they take care to maintain looking as exotic and inhuman as possible. Their name suggests they see themself as part of some harmony, or perhaps as part of a proper ending. Either way, they seem to have a strange understanding of how to acquire all manner of medical technology - especially cyberware. This is contrasted with a strange difficulty they have practicing medicine under pressure, and an even stranger difficulty they have explaining why they know so much. Given enough time, they will come back with an encyclopedic knowledge of answers to various medical questions, however. All this and a strange proclivity toward nanotechnology have led people to figure out they are a monad, and so no one in the community at large trusts them.

Aspects

Aspect Description
Monad This contact is infected with CFD. Because no one trusts them and they have difficulty understanding metahumans, they may not be used for networking tests. They may also have trouble providing information from knowledge skills or performing active skills as the GM sees fit based on this naivete, which could incur a dice pool penalty or disallow the test in extreme cases.
Cyberlimbs Cybernetic prosthesis of a limb and any upgrades that can be installed therein, though torso and skull prosthesis are typically included as well.
Cyberware Augmentations requiring the implant of inorganic, computerized material that may interface with the nervous system directly or indirectly.
Geneware Biotechnology modifying the genome to produce desired traits.
Medical Gear Equipment used in the medical practice, from first aid kits to the most advanced autodocs.
Nanotechnology Technology involving the use of nanites, microscopically small machines. Includes nanoware, nanocybernetics, and nanogear.
Pharmaceuticals Drugs and medications, especially those of high quality.
Street Doc A street-level practitioner of medicine and vendor of illicit augmentations & medical equipment.
