Overview

After graduating from the University of Washington, Nasir Radha was one of those lucky few to land a cushy position that pays well and sees next to no action. He works as a dedicated security rigger for Jackson's Revenge, an exclusive nightclub in one of Bellevue's nicer neighborhoods; aside from the occasional rowdy drunk or social climber trying to enter without an invitation, he's left to freely ply his trade during his shifts. It's the perfect job for an up-and-coming information broker, at least until he gets enough regular clients to quit.

Candlejack tries to put on the sort of cool formality expected of a stereotypical information dealer, but he's still working on it. Nonetheless, even if he does occasionally prattle on a bit too long or go on tangents about his own personal interests, he's a talented data analyst that can get you a dossier on someone in no time flat. Just don't ask him about how he got his name - he can go on for hours.

Aspects Description

Aspect Description
Distracted Diving Candlejack's talented when it comes to his ability to dig up dirt. Unfortunately, whiny rich people stop for no man; when it comes to more in-depth searches, he often gets pulled away from his deep dive to go do his actual job. When tapped to provide information, the GM rolls a d6 in secret. If it comes up as a 1, Candlejack is interrupted by his work as a security rigger, and ends up leaving out important details or providing inaccurate information as a result.
Know People Who Know People Though the clientele of Jackson's Revenge are hardly the most likable people, they ARE still rich and well-connected. Over time, Candlejack has collected a short-list he can call on to get an in with the upper crust. As a result, he gains a +2 to Networking checks for people in high society.
Time to Burn Candlejack might not have made it big in the shadows just yet, but that's not all bad. Where more popular infobrokers might be dealing with a number of requests at any given time, he's able to provide his full attention to his investigations - so long as you pay the right price. He gains a +2 to Knowledge checks when called upon to actively compile information on something for a character.
Known for Drones Candlejack might try (and usually fail) to keep his interests and his work separate, but he obviously enjoys certain subjects more than others. When it comes to drones - identification, models, trivia, you name it - he gets a +2 to all Knowledge checks.
Industry Insider Sure, the job at Jackson's Revenge might just be until he makes enough bank to quit, but so long as he's there, might as well keep up-to-date with the latest news in physical security. Candlejack has the know-how required to help analyze a system's weakpoints and flaws, and gains a +2 on Knowledge checks when doing so.
