Faction Information
Summary
The Cutters are a North American gang, with active members in most sprawls, making them transnational. While they got their beginnings in drug dealing and street-level violence, they’ve evolved over the years into a pseudo-corporate force with the resources, income, and structure of a small corporation. Although they deal in goods and services that qualify as black-market or illegal in many jurisdictions, they do so with a primary concern for profit. Violence is a side effect of their primary for-profit goal, and this group is not involved in political or social terrorism.
The Cutters mimic corporate structure to the point that their leadership is called the board of directors, and they have a CEO who runs the gang, under direction of the Board. A CFO, CIO (Chief Intelligence Officer), and a VP of security all report to the CEO directly, while other parts of the gang are organized and labeled with similar corporate terms. For example, their Department of Logistics and Supply Management deals with cross-border smuggling as well as shifting goods from one branch of the gang to another. This organization has slowly evolved over recent decades, as the gang has shifted from a more street-level, disorganized group into the top-tier gang it is today. And, in fact, the gang is so remarkably similar to an actual corporation that it isn’t uncommon for some files to get misplaced or a shipment to get accidentally rerouted, so that the men-on-the-streets find themselves receiving a shipment of medkits instead of a crate of Ares Alphas. Supposedly, the field leaders are good at improvising and working with the inevitable mix-ups, so they simply restructure their plans and file a report to the appropriate department.
