Owner, Founder, and CEO of Nuyen Press. After the events of Great Artists Steal, his publishing company has enjoyed a small renaissance due to boosted awareness and an influx of cash from the resulting lawsuit.
Aspects Description
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Reticent | [[NegativeAspectDescription::The initial cost of purchasing this contact is doubled, unless part of a run reward. (Copied from WRN3).]] |
| Boy Scout I | [[NegativeAspectDescription::Franco will not act illegally to help a runner unless they're really good pals. When asked to perform an illegal action, Franco rolls 1d6. Only on a result greater than 9-minus-Loyalty will he do as asked. (Adapted from g01bez and 0-MUS).]] |
| Publisher's Privilege | Brady Franco is a man with an eye for literary talent (even if he himself is a failed author). Though Nuyen Press specializes in web fiction in the light novel style, the man himself has a love and respect for all literature, and receives a bonus to checks involving it. Authors also qualify under this aspect. |
| Boy Scout II | Whether he actually was or wasn't is anyone's guess, but he's got the moral compass of one. Brady Franco believes strongly in what is morally right, and will help with renewed vigor if convinced that what the runner is doing is a moral good. |
| Shady Assistant | Franco's assistant, Kim, has surprising connections to the shadows through her brother. In the event that Brady Franco can be convinced to help with an illegal action, Kim proves a vital asset in navigating the shadows. |
| Publishing Expert | Though his heart belongs to literature, his mind is honed for business, especially in the publishing industry. Checks involving the publishing industry or running a business in general receive a bonus. |
| Security Conscious | After the events of Great Artists Steal, he's really put his back into beefing up his security. Information regarding the physical security, matrix security, and infosec of a business is something he's actively working to improve in. He'll receive a bonus to checks involving this aspect. |
