NameNegative AspectDescriptionApprovedProfessionArchetypeConnectionActive PCs with this Contact
Von NeumannSee No Evil
Hear No Evil
Speak No Evil
Letting anyone that isn't on Von Neumann's contact list know of its existence is forbidden. If a PC tells or shows others evidence of Von Neumann's existence, it will burn the character as a contact.
Von Neumann will never do Active checks on the surface or Matrix on a runner's behalf. As if that weren't enough, Von Neumann demands a chip for any Active or Knowledge check instead of nuyen. This may be paid back with runs that benefit the AI.
Word of mouth and taking things on trust are foreign to Von Neumann. Any character under 5 Loyalty will automatically fail Loyalty checks to request Von Neumann's aid on runs unless they provide direct evidence (GM dictates what counts) that the action will only provide benefits to it. Von Neumann will also never perform Networking checks.

WardenJust Business
At Arm's Length
Warden has a lot on his hands between moderation and vetting the information that comes through Watchtower—you just aren't that important to him yet. Sorry. Warden doesn't add Loyalty to Knowledge, Active, Gear, or Networking tests if his Loyalty is 3 or less.
You are not a friend. Warden doesn't make "friends" with the people working for him. You are an asset, and it's best you remember that. Warden's Loyalty cannot be raised above 3 outside of a private run finding him an extremely valuable piece of information.

Wira ŁynarLife from Loam
Fresh Wounds
Wira is not known for her subtlety. When utilized, roll a 1d6. On a 1, the actions Wira takes are obvious and are easily traceable back to you.
She hates the Unseelie for taking her child. Treat her Loyalty as two lower if you have a positive rep with the corporation. If this would drop Loyalty below 1, you cannot take her as a contact. If you develop a positive rep with those circles after buying her, she isn't lost, but clams up and ignores you until you change your bedfellows.

XWorking Hours

Not Your Fixer
True Believer
X is reclusive to a fault, preferring digital interactions to physical ones. Only those with a Loyalty 5+ can physically visit them. The only exception is a character with Corporate Pariah or Wanted qualities relating to Aztechnology, even then, they must have Loyalty 4+. Gear is delivered via dead drop only.
Always make an availability test for this contact with their Connection 3 higher than normal.
X is wanted by Aztechnology, 500k nuyen bounty alive, 200k dead. This may cause AZT contacts or X to lose loyalty should the runner work for the other party, at GM’s (or Contact Owner’s) discretion.
X has a wide network of other cyberdocs, illicit distributors, and old friends. They value this network more than their life, and their privacy almost as much. X will never roll Networking checks unless offered a chip in addition to any other fees for the service.
X will never provide any assistance which serves to harm the Black Star or Black Cross organizations. If a runner with X as a contact does work against these groups, they immediately lose a point of loyalty, if this brings X’s loyalty to 0, the runner is burned. Given their high connection and wide network, assume they will catch wind of any such jobs.
Doing all this shadow work pays rent, and tends to fill up the “shiny fun stuff” fund pretty quickly! X figures they need plenty of time to enjoy that, otherwise, why bother? X puts in 8 hours a day and then finds something else to do. Any contact availability tests performed outside their normal hours (2am-6am & 2pm-6pm PST) automatically fail. Services can be scheduled for times outside this window, if planned well in advance.

XXJ@ck41XxOn Thin IceJulian narrowly avoided going to jail after being caught on his last hack. Due to his parents' lawyers and a favor from the runner Orchid, he managed to get off with two years probation. He needs to have regular meetings with his PO, complete 200 hours of community service, and risks getting a criminal SIN if he commits any more crimes. He will not make active checks relating to illegal activities for anyone at lower than loyalty 5.YesL33T H@xx0rLegwork21
XyvisHard to CallXyvis is still new to commlinks. And to having a metahuman form. And to carrying things. When called, make a Loyalty + Edge (2) Test. Failure means she isn't around her commlink, and might not be for hours to come (GM Discretion). Alternate methods of contacting her, such as through spirit communication or by physically searching for her, can bypass this.YesService22

ZennyIn the Shop
Voiding the Warranty
One of Those Idiots
Zenny's his own favorite patient, and can usually be found performing questionably safe operations on himself. When making an availibilty test with this contact, roll 1d6. On a 5 or a 6, Zenny will be in the middle of surgery and unable to perform any active checks. He'll also probably be high on redmesc, as he thinks it helps him operate better.
Zenny's cyberware is an ungodly mess of salvaged parts and juryrigging. It can be terrifyingly effective when he gets out the spurs, but it's also plagued by gremlins. Whenever Zenny makes an active check related to something intensely physical (e.g. fighting, helping move something heavy, etc.), the GM rolls 1d6. On a 5 or a 6, Zenny fails the task due to a malfunctioning piece of ware. The glitch should be spectacular, and preferably done at the worst possible moment for the runners.
Zenny is a member of the Hellraisers. Although he isn't especially loyal to the group, he's got his rep as a ganger to consider. He will not do anything that he thinks will go against the gang's interest for anyone at less than loyalty 5, and will not snitch on his gangmates for anyone below loyalty 6 (even then, he'll only do it for a very good reason).

Zombie ProcessYou're the best! Around!Tasha needs to be the strongest, and won't tolerate anyone who brings that into question. If a character with this contact questions their ability to do something, or even just does it well themselves, Tasha will challenge them to a duel to prove her superiority. The duel will be a test of whatever skill was called into question and doesn't need to involve direct combat (although it usually does). If a character refuses this duel, Tasha will call them a coward and drop by 1 loyalty.YesWiz Gang CyberadeptCustom(A,N,K,G)30
Zonta TahcawinBeleaguered BusinesswomanLodgings. Food. Entertainment. Those damn Sioux supremacists trying to shoot the place again. Unbiased business is tough in Cheyenne.
