Rose of Sharon carries HMHVV Strain II in her blood - while she takes abundant precaution against spreading the virus, this still tends to be off-putting to anyone who learns about it. If a runner (or NPC) is exposed (such as through direct blood-blood transfer, or much more likely by making physical contact with her while either of them has an open wound), they must roll against infection as normal. She takes a -2 penalty on all social active, gear acquisition, and networking rolls with those who know of her HMHVV positive status, as well as with all Infected due to her open disdain for them. +

Ru Xiao is a busy woman. When she performs a service, roll a 1d6.

Should you call on his aid, roll 2d6. On a 2 or 3, he is too busy to help you at the moment. The GM should describe some sort of implausible adventure he is busy having. +

She hates Saeder-Krupp for trying to encroach on Finland. Treat her Loyalty as two lower if you have a positive rep with the corporation.

This contact actively works against Halloweeners whenever possible.

Characters will need to make one of two Social Tests to convince him to send illegal gear your way: Con (Threshold 3) to spin a yarn about how they need a convincing facsimile for a theater or indie trid film project, or Performance (Threshold 2) to sing or monologue a few lines from the “production”! +
