Soot-Steps doesn't like having to work. As such, she's usually pretty bad at helping out or being reliable in what you ask of her. Whenever contacted, the GM rolls a 1D6 in secret.

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. +

Spex refuses to give up her mornings (community service) and her nights (night life). She puts in her 8 hours and then clicks her work comm off. Add +5 to the threshold of the contact availability test if trying to contact Spex outside of her normal hours (11am-7pm PST). +, Spex is very popular in the underserved Carbonado area. Chulos and Coyotes alike keep her clinic booked solid. Services may take longer. Every time the contact provides a service, roll 2D6. The normal amount of time that it would take to provide the service is multiplied by the resulting number. +, In terms of Runner clientele, Spex is fairly selective. She despises the meek and corporate aligned, and is loathe to work with anyone so bland and spineless. The cost to upgrade this contact's loyalty is doubled unless the character has either visible cyberware or the Distinctive Style quality. Loyalty costs are also doubled for any character with a Corporate or Corporate Limited SIN. +, …
No matter what this contact does for you he will always pursue the Sea Dragon's advantage.

Springtime Birch is a prodigy. Beyond ordinary book smarts he has an innate connection to wildlife that is preternatural. Simply put: he’s incredible. And he knows it. He’s going to make sure you know it, too. Players must succeed on an Etiquette (1) test to display appropriate layperson awe at his knowledge and talents or, out of petty irritation, his services will cost twice as much. +, Springtime Birch has little respect for people, but abundant respect for nature. He’s more than happy to help tame and train critters, both para and normal, but he will not train them for combat. If they have innate predatory instincts, so be it, but they will not suffer in pitfights under his watch. If Springtime Birch discovers that the (para)critters he’s training are being subjected to suicide work or bloodsports he will immediately burn the player and become their sworn enemy. +
St1tch is a carrier of HMHVV, and is extremely cautious about preventing infection. She will not meet in person for anyone below loyalty 4, and will absolutely refuse to go anywhere with a large number of people. She's a hypochondriac, and carries around cleaning supplies to disinfect nearly every surface that she touches. Any active checks made in meatspace will take a -4 due to the difficulty of staying clean in a city as dirty as Seattle. +, St1tch hates the infected with a burning passion. Every time this contact learns that a character has helped an infected group, decrease their loyalty by 1. If loyalty drops to 0 in this way, St1tch consider the character an enemy and become actively hostile. +, While she's normally quiet and professional, the taint of dissonance in St1tch's aura occasionally rears its head. When calling this contact, the GM rolls 1d6 in secret. On a 5 or a 6 St1tch will become agitated, aggressive, and volatile. Any checks not relating to the purging of infected will cost 50% extra and take a -2 dice penalty.

If the player argues with St1tch or questions their methods, they must either take a chip or lose 1 loyalty with the contact. Loyalty lost in this manner also counts towards the "Vendetta" aspect. +
St@b didn't make it this long giving out stuff for free. Everything in the sixth world has a cost, and if you want her help you're going to have to pay in full. She will not work for anything less than complete, up front payment; asking for a favor or talking up potential rewards is a quick way to get yourself hung up on. She may accept payment in something other than cash, but it'd better be a damn good offer. +

In addition, they are reluctant to discuss their knowledge or contacts gained during their years as a spy. +
Storch will never do Active checks on the surface or Matrix on a runner's behalf. As if that weren't enough, Storch demands a chip for any Active or Knowledge check instead of nuyen. This may be paid back with runs that benefit the AI. +, Storch' existence is more or less a secret. People outside of MCT shouldn't know about her existence. Networking checks will not be performed outside of MCT assets or employees. +
Styyles is easily insulted, if he detects even the slightest slight against his quality work, he will be sure to mention it to his other contacts and retract his work, and he knows Vory contacts. +

With her past, she is always weary of getting tangled in again with the big Y. She will be incredibly weary of doing stuff with/against Shiawase and Renraku, and will outright refuse to get involved in anything that concerns MCT or the Yakuza itself even tangentially. +
Life can be hard when you're living on the street. When Sylphiette reaches out to a contact, roll a D6. If the number rolled is equal to or lower than your loyalty, Sylphiette will feel confident enough in your relationship to ask for a favor. This could be anywhere from money to transportation to help in her personal life. Otherwise, she'll ask for a favor and reply, as always "Nevermind, just forget it." +, Sylphiette may struggle with self worth and depression, but she absolutely won't work with people who are openly homophobic. She won't let her identity be corroded by people who can't mind their business. Being openly homophobic towards Sylphiette will cause her to immediately burn the contact. +
