"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.

Overview

Psychonoise was a pretty good street doc even before she got infected. After, however... well, she retained most of her know-how, surprisingly, but even after being told that there is a cure, she doesn't feel like taking it. If anything, she's taken steps to prevent anyone from stuffing the required nanites into her. The new double personality that has emerged -- apparently dead twins from the 2050's -- claim that it... she... they are more efficient than ever with this arrangement. Due to her constant connection to the host of her little boutique, even during surgery, the operating theater can be filled with unintelligible white noise and screeching from the PA system, hence her current nickname.

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.
Chromium Cybernetics of all kinds are accessible by Psychonoise's bizarre network. +2 to obtain cyberware.
FBR Kitbash Cyberware supply connections, specifically limbs, torso chasses and skulls. +2 for cyberlimbs and cyberlimb accessories.
Nano From A Monad?! Don't worry, she's careful not to cross-contaminate. It's done remotely. +2 to procure nanoware, both soft and hard kinds.
Biomassive Biotechnology modifying the genome to produce desired traits. +2 to procure geneware.
Medical Attention From various surgery applications arises the need for regenerative tools. +2 to obtain medical gear like first aid kits.
Secret Pharma Sure, she can get you medical kits, but that's reactive medicine. Get proactive. +2 to acquire drugs! DRUGS!
Street Doc In a pinch, she can patch you up. No promises on whether it's pretty, though. +2 on surgery and first aid checks.
