Aspects Description
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Unstable Experiment | Sparkplug juryrigging is dubious and his experiment can fail. When Sparkplug's is entrusted to make modification or when the runners use the Nitroglyceri-Methanol, roll an edge test (3). If succeeded nothing wrong happen, if failed the bonus become a malus. On a glitch the vehicle suffer a breakdown and need a standard repair. For critical Glitch refer to the related aspect. |
| Nitroglyceri-Methanol | Sparkplug most prized experiment, a mix of nitroglycerine and methanol that is supposed to crank up any engine past it's specification for a brief amount of time. When used increase Speed by 20% like the gearhead quality, in case of critical glitch on unstable experiment the engine explode. (Consider this as a succesful call shot engine block) |
| Perfectly Adjusted | Sparkplug take a lot of time to adjust every component of a vehicle...So it run like clockwork! When used it work like the Gearquality with handling increase. In case of a critical glitch on unstable experiment a poor weld make the vehicle almost undrivable (Reduce the handling to 1 until some repair have been made) |
| Some little treat! | Fencing drugs is second nature for Sparkplug, he always manage to find a way to get his hand on the most rare one! (+2 on acquiring drugs) |
| The Finest Ride and Part! | Like most of the grease monkey, Sparkplug has a lot of contact to fence ground vehicle and found spare part for them! (+2 on acquiring groundcraft and modification for them) |
| Black Market Pipeline | Through his connection Sparkplug can fence illegal goods with ease. (+2 on Forbidden Gear) |
