Overview

Tobacco and alcohol are severely restricted in the Sioux Nation. Of course the Lakota mafia Whiteclay mob family capitalizes on that. Hotah is a trusted mobster of theirs who focuses on smuggling these goods in and having his people enforce protection money from a number of businesses with less than legal booze and smokes sold under the counter. He also fixes on the side - the mob needs out-of-town talent and is willing to set you up in exchange for work. Conveniently, through Hotah, it's possible to be connected with Whiteclay smugglers and forgers - crucial for running in the Sioux Nation. A professional type, he rarely needs to raise his voice. And best keep it like this.

Aspects Description

Aspect	Description
Whiteclay Made Man	As a trusted Whiteclay mob member, Hotah will not move against his syndicate knowingly.
I Know a Guy (Lots, Actually)	Be they underworld types, gray area operators willing to sell the SINless goods they trade in, or just SINners the Whiteclays have dirt on, Hotah has a knack for memorizing faces and helping you expand your base of contacts.
In the Family	Vetted and trusted, Hotah can help you connect with the Whiteclay mob. Networking with other members is at +2.
Location, Location, Location	He's of the opinion that the location(s) you operate in is crucial for business. For him, it's the Sioux Nation. Tests related to finding people there and networking with them are at +2.
Valuable Vices	Through him, goods which are heavily restricted or outright forbidden in the country can be had… for a price. Alcohol, tobacco, drugs and BTLs as well as certain arms and armor (GM discretion) receive +2 to the gear acquisition checks.
Alter Ego	The Sioux Nation intentionally makes non-natives feel unwelcome - hostile paperwork plays a huge part in it. That's why you need more than outstanding fake identities - ideally selling you as a Sioux Nation SINner. Thanks to his syndicate contacts, he can help procure fake SINs, licenses and other IDs for less than legal purposes.
Cheyenne Blues	Hotah is a Cheyenne boy. He hates the Council of Elders, but loves the rotten sprawl anyway. Knowledge skills related to it (like Area Knowledge, Sprawl Life or Bars and Clubs) and its criminal underbelly (so Underworld, Shadow Community, Gangs and Syndicates, provided your questions pertain to Cheyenne) are done at +2.
Ride Rental	He can help you connect with Whiteclay smugglers and network rentals of vehicles for jobs in Cheyenne, Butte and the area between them.
Magic Man	Telesma, reagents, shaman tuxedos, foci and other magical gear, including alchemical preparations, provided they're for the Sioux or shamanic traditions, can be acquired from Whiteclay-associated talismongers at +2.
