F
The GM rolls in secret a 1d6. If the roll a one the contact will say, with complete confidence, that they will do the request or that they have the right information. They will then flake out or their information will be wrong. They will say they got the gear then accidentally sell it to another person. +
He is fully sworn to advancing the bottomline of Saeder-Krupp and any action taken against Saeder-Krupp as a personal slight. He will not actively work against Saeder-Krupp and if he hears of any word of runners working against S-K he will actively work against them. +
It's hard being a fire spirit in Seattle, the place of the constant falling of water death from the sky! Fuego is impossible to find in the physical and very hard to find in the astral when it's actively raining. You're just going to have to wait until the bad water goes away. +
G
While G-Old understands runners do need to kill in their line of work, the deaths of civilians or innocents is unacceptable. G-Old will refuse to work with runners if he finds out that their actions directly lead to the deaths of innocent lives while on a run. The only way to atone is to do "community service" in the form of hooding for him. +
g01bez is very protective of 0-MUS, and as such will not place her in unnecessary danger. If asked to perform a task in an unusually dangerous situation as determined by the GM by a runner with loyalty 3 or lower, it is refused with their apologies. As a baseline, assume the threshold is something that would put the pair in direct contention with an organization of Connection 2 or higher, although other situations may also apply. +
Due to being an MCT asset, the corp almost always has their eye on GREY-1483. It's extremely risky for her to leave her host, and usually can't for long. GREY-1483 will not leave her host unless her contact is loyalty 3 or higher +
Bayou Bill taught Gator everything he knew. Including combat tactics. When Gator is called for job, roll 1d6 in secret. On a roll of 5 or 6, Gator will fight like Bill did. That means violence, explosions and collateral damage galore. You think you brought him on for a distraction and expect it? Oh no, he went even bigger. This violence may or may not be able to be traced back to you, depending on how evil the GM is feeling. +, Bayou Bill died fighting Horizon. As such, if you are working a job that brings good things to Horizon, Gator WILL NOT HELP you. If you have called or used a Horizon affiliated contact in the last week, Gator will take a -4 on any checks to assist you. He can smell the suit on you. +, Gator is an alligator. While he’s awakened and sapient, it doesn’t instantly mean he has a full understanding of English and societal norms. Getting this contact to DO things may require an animal handling check or a bribing with appropriate snacks. Gator DOES understand limited English from his training with Bill (and understands it BETTER if delivered in a Louisiana drawl) but usage of complex terms and ideas may not go over well. Also, because he is an alligator, he cannot speak. +

Will never work against S-K and will refuse to work with any runners who have a bounty with S-K. If you contact him during a run and use the information provided to work against S-K roll a loyalty check. if it fails he immediately burns you. If it succeeds you owe him a chip to reearn favor with him. +, Will never work against AGS interests and will refuse to work with any runners who have a bounty from any AGS State. If you contact him during a run and use the information provided to work against AGS interests roll a loyalty check. if it fails he immediately burns you. If it succeeds you owe him a chip to reearn favor with him. +
Locked in the spire, there's not much she can do to get gear out of it. She cannot be reached if you are not in the spire. +
Five-Star isn't especially keen on being used to ferry around a bunch of idiot criminals she doesn't know - at least, not without financial incentive. For every person below Loyalty 4 that she's asked to drive around, she'll charge a minimum of 1000 nuyen. Rates go up if they're known to be infected ("I'm NOT getting ghoul blood on my fraggin' upholstery.") or a rigger ("Fuck you need me for? Get your own ride instead of a bunch of toys."). +, Five-Star is a pretty talented wheelwoman... as long as you're talking about trucks and vans. Motorcycles? Nah. Rotorcraft? Don't make her laugh. Even normal cars are generally too fragile for her liking; she works best with vehicles that can take a licking and keep on kicking. Active checks to deal with vehicles that '''are not''' trucks or vans take a -2 penalty, if she deigns to work with them at all. +
Gestrüpp is a Wild Spirit, with his domain in Carbonado, Puyallup. He can not be contacted outside of that area, and he can not leave it. +, If your Loyalty with Gestrüpp is lower than 4 he will ask you for a favour one tier higher on the service table (FA 178) than what he is offering in return. Alternatively you can give him 5 karma per tier on the service table. If your Loyalty is 4 or higher it will cost as normal. +
When contacting Ackerman, roll Loyalty + Edge (1) if you contact her during a run for help. Failing the check means she has something to gain by working against you and will tip off any potential opfor of your involvement in order to gain further security herself. +, Purchasing Ackerman costs twice as much, unless part of a run reward. +, If your Loyalty with Ackerman is 1 or 2, asking for her help during a run and not doing what she wants is likely to make her tip off the op-for or KE to curry favor from them instead. +
Goalmaster is reliable when it comes to actually supplying materials, but... well, getting to the actual bartering process can be an exercise in frustration. His hallucinations and creative imagination take firm hold of him whenever his long-term brain damage flares up, and it becomes nigh-on impossible to talk over how much a shipment of scrap steel will cost when he's more concerned about slaying the ruddy-furred chimera for the good of his kingdom. Blowing up whatever rusted-out old truck he's obsessing over this time tends to snap him out of it long enough to talk. When you attempt to tap this contact during a run, the GM should make a roll to determine his mental state at the time. On a 4, 5, or 6, he's stable enough to make a deal or provide information. On a 1, 2, or 3, he'll answer the call, but will require the runners to complete some inconvenient, ridiculous job out in the worst parts of the Puyallup barrens before he's willing to talk shop. +

Gord is a mean slitch at the best of times, even to those he considers his friends. If he ''doesn't'' consider you his friend, you can expect him to be that much more obnoxious. He's even more sensitive to any slights than a normal hobgoblin. Unless the character in question has at least Loyalty 5, whenever this contact is called upon, the runner tapping him for help needs to be as conciliatory and pleasant as possible, no matter how acerbic his insults become. If they return the venom in any respect, Gord will be more than happy to come up with a suitable way of getting even - whether it's "accidentally" leaving one of his traps armed when someone comes to visit, or forcing them to go handle someone else on his shitlist to get off of it themselves. The GM is encouraged to make the revenge obnoxious, unpleasant, or demeaning, but never quite dangerous enough to get the runner killed. +
More out of necessity than personal choice, she won't work against the lodge and will try to sell out any runners who have a bounty with the Black Lodge. If you contact her during a run and use the information provided to work against the Black Lodge, roll a loyalty check. If it fails she immediately sell you out. If it succeeds you owe him a chip to re-earn favor with him. +
Gran NY is fussy, ahem, "selective", about who she works with. She fancies herself the guide for those lily-livered whippersnappers, err, the next generations of runners. Notoriety has a double penalty when dealing with this contact. Subtract twice the runner's Notoriety from any check she's asked to do. +, Gran NY is an old-school lady, first and foremost, and will not tolerate breaches of common courtesy or hospitality in her presence, real or imaginary. When attempting to contact her, make an Etiquette test. On no hits OR a glitch, she'll refuse to work with you until appropriate amends have been made, subject to GM discretion. Warning: her preference for drek jobs involving cats is infamous. +, To Gran NY, after being widowed by Sile - the late Mr Yang - her posse of cats became her family. The GM secretly rolls a D6. If they roll a 1, Gran is busy taking care of the critters, which means absolute focus and no time for anything else. +, …
Grani is selective about who he works with. Notoriety has a double penalty when dealing with him: subtract twice the runner's Notoriety from any check he is asked to do. +, He believes Finland has enough problems without the Saeder-Krupp sniffing around his business. Treat his Loyalty as two lower if you have a positive rep with the corporation. If this would drop Loyalty below 1, you cannot take him as a contact. If you develop a positive rep with those circles after buying him, he isn't lost, but will not answer your messages unless you lose your rep. +
