Character Information
Summary
Even without the wheelchair, Relay stands out. Usually dressed in mechanic's garb with goggles on his forehead, Relay looks more likely to fix your car than be the runner you're supposed to meet up with. When he rolls up his sleeves, Relay's most distinctive characteristic is revealed: four cybereyes implanted on the inside of his right cyberarm are a grizzly reminder of the impractical nature of being a shadow runner.
A rigger who envisions himself as the team dad, Relay's goal is to help you be the all star you were meant to be. Whether it's with audio / visual support, suppressing fire, a get-away vehicle, or a little extra defensive help, Relay's skill set embodies the support player designed to enable the team to be at their best.
Goals
Bored of rolling around the house, Relay wants to build a personal vehicle and drone warehouse to tinker in. Through the use of VR and sensors, there are few places that Relay can't or won't go. On the job, Relay's number one goal will be team safety even before mission success.
Gearwise:
Be Team Dad: Obtain a PI-Tac IIIBe His Best Self: Upgrade his Control Rig to level III- Be In Control: Obtain a
Triox UberMensch, Shiawase Cyber-6, and Spinrad Global Skirmisher. Be THE Rigger: Obtain a Gladius, a Hellhound, and at least one Aircraft.
Lorewise:
- Eradicate any bug shaman he finds in Seattle.
- Bring down as many Humanis members as possible.
- Become a trusted ally of Mothers of Metahumans.
- Become a trusted ally of the Ghoul Liberation League.
- Grow MERC into an organization where antagonized groups in Seattle have the opportunity to fight for their future.
Background
Silas was a mechanic long before he was a runner named Relay.
After earning an undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology, Silas worked as a civil engineer for the city of Atlanta and as a heavy automotive mechanic for a body shop in downtown Atlanta. Over the weekend, He was called into his body shop to overhaul an engine on a city swat truck. The truck's driver, crashing off Long Haul, managed to pin him against the wall of his body shop and left him unable to walk.
Out of a career, but with a little pittance in his pocket for his untimely end of service for the city, Silas moved to Seattle and started building a web of contacts as Relay, the runner. Relay takes odd jobs, mostly as a driver or drone pilot, to add a little life back into living.
Narrative Significant Qualities
Positive
- College Education Silas studied mechanical engineering and business at Georgia Institute of Technology.
- Gearhead / Speed Demon / Steely Eyed Wheelman When you can only move with a set of wheels, you begin to push the limit of what those wheels can do.
- Trust Fund III Silas has an account that pays for his living expenses after a negligent city agent in Atlanta pinned Silas against the wall with his truck, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down.
Negative
- Distinctive Style / Infirm /
ParaplegicA shadow runner in a wheelchair is--well--noticeable. As a person who is differently abled, Relay has lower physical attributes and is more noticeable. Those who don't prejudge him find him to be up to the job. - SINner (National - CAS) Silas is a citizen of the Confederation of American States.
Note: while Relay has bought off paraplegic through his deltaware rewards, only the people most close to him are aware that he has bought off this quality.

DAIRY QUEEN
Owns 150k shares of Dairy Queen stock for Seattle. Will use his influence to insure that all they are hiring underserviced groups, and all profits will go into a fund to help those new hires obtain SINs, etc. (This is purely fluff after a run.)
162s | 1 Faction Rep
So, uh, this was--kinda accidental? You tell ONE "scene cleaner" to wait until you're done saving a guy and she can have the people holding him hostage, and suddenly the 162s are kinda chill with you. Maybe this will come in handy, but it still feels like I'm maybe the bad guy here. UPDATE: I tried to prevent framing an innocent man, and somehow endeared myself to the 162s even further. What the absolute shit.
Ancients | 4 Faction Rep
Between Luna and Argent, I'm running into a lot more of the Ancients crew now-a-days. As long as you don't ask about whose hand falls off the crate of drugs you're moving, they appreciate your help.
Aztechnology | 10 Faction Rep
Remember that dragon messing up your life? And also his entire crew in the pyramid HOLY CRAP SO MANY MAGES IN A ROOM!
Black Lodge | 1 Faction Rep
See--now, I want to be able to explain, but I really can't. I thought we were taking out an evil spirit, but I'm pretty sure I'm just making things worse.
Celedyr | 2 Faction Rep
Ever get dressed up for a fancy party then have to wait in the car? Farsight and Sc4rl3tt may have gotten to enjoy the party, but I kept eyes on the place and now have six thousand dollars worth of armored dress clothes in the closet, so I guess that's--uh--good. As another fun quirk, it seems like the Welshman was actually a friggin dragon. I'm not sure how much string pulling we can do for a dragon, but for better or worse he knows who I am, and he knows I did the job.
Draco Foundation | 52 Faction Rep
Didn't kill a bug shaman. People praised me as if that was a good thing. Saved the world...be liked for quite some time.
Ex-Neonet | 3 Faction Rep
We shot down a whole fleet of VTOLs so that was pretty neat.
FBI | 10 Faction Rep
We helped them eradicate a group of cultists right under their nose, then gave them all the credit. Nothing makes people happier than taking credit for your work.
Federated-Boeing | 1 Faction Rep
We stole a commlink back for a dude, and that's good...I guess...
Ghoul Liberation League | 1 Faction Rep
I put GLL and MoM on the same list: two groups I'm very proud to have ties to.
Leasa Organization | 2 Faction Rep
See Draco Foundation.
Mothers of Metahumans | 12 Faction Rep
We've gently crossed paths, but MoM is an organization I deeply respect. They're a group I'd like to help more moving forward.
SK | -180 Faction Rep
OKAY so I sort of destroyed an arctic base with Fragface and TT. On accident. But then we struck a deal with the devil so...yay? EDIT: We saved the world after striking another deal with the devil. And he still wants to eat me. Got a gold business card, though!
Skraacha | 7 Faction Rep
Ghouls eating people is super bad, my dudes. I know--I know...seems silly to say that while the 162s acknowledge you as an ally, but here we are. Less eating people generally means some are appreciative.
SpinGlobal | 5 Faction Rep
See SK bounty, but got the toy for them!
Shadows of Seattle | 50 Faction Rep
Saved the world. Accidentally got a bunch of Azzies murdered. It was a thing.
Streets of Seattle | 35 Faction Rep
Long live the king. EDIT: Down with the cults trying to resurrect Dunk.
Streets of Redmond | 3 Faction Rep
We shot down a whole fleet of VTOLs so that was pretty neat.
Tir Council | 30 Faction Rep
Dragons...always dragons. Oof.
