A metaplot revolving around the ineffable Mr. Kevin Crimes, a lieutenant in the Cutters who gets caught up with varied criminal organisations, from his home gang the Cutters to Shadowhaven itself.
Factions
The Cutters
Spanning nearly the entire Seattle Sprawl, the Cutters are Crimes' organization, or rather he is their functionary. In seeking to secure and expand their territory, they are clashing with the Crush, who are strongly protective of the trogs of Redmond.
Goals
- Weaken the Crush
- Steal their business
- Preserve their power
The Crimson Crush
A mid-tier go-gang in Redmond, the Crimson Crush are staunchly territorial, seeking to serve the neighbourhood welfare of the region in Redmond they call their home even as they enrich themselves off of vice. Their territory stretches east of Touristville, and they don't take kindly to intrusion, particularly distrusting humans.
Goals
- Maintain their territorial hegemony
- Protect the interests of their community
- Stick it to the smoothskins, if they can
The Agency
A small-time gang known to operate in Redmond, the Agency operates in a semi-clandestine fashion, keeping only a light grip on its territory. While as capable of violence as other gangs, the Agency puts up a good attempt at reasonableness, imitating the shadowy government/corporate spy organizations you see on the Trid.
Goals
- Make money.
- Be cool.
Timeline

> A team of runners, many of which were hired by Crimes previously, are hired by Yoon Myung-ju in conjunction with Shlice to capture and maim Kevin Crimes, removing and stealing his arm as revenge for stiffing them. After this, the unconscious Crimes is unceremoniously deposited at the Lady Grace Free Clinic, one that the Cutters had previously disrupted.
