Overview

The mysterious man known as Milo Minderbinder, or 2xM, is a highly prominent exporter of European mil-spec weapons. The only thing that anyone knows for sure is that he was some variety of low level supply chain manager or security spider for a eurocorp or mercenary company, most likely either S-K or MET2000. He speaks with a slight Castilian accent and operates primarily out a base known as Palermo somewhere in Italian Confederation. He maintains a large fleet of aircraft for his smuggling syndicate, M&M Enterprises, and is quite proud of his syndicate's profit sharing scheme.

Personality

Milo is a prolific reader and vocal fan of both classical American literature and Latin-American magical realism. Most of his syndicate's aircraft (and the syndicate itself) are named after references to 5th world literature. He's a natural salesman and is highly excitable when discussing heavy or exotic weapons, often rambling about their features or sharing demonstration trids without any prompting. Based on this and his proclivity for collecting payment in weapons demonstration footage, he can be assumed to be quite bloodthirsty, though he's oddly friendly with anyone he's dealing with and eager to help people resolve their problems nonviolently.

Aspects Description

Aspect	Description
The Prophet of Profit	What's good for the company is good for all! Milo keeps a well-trained syndicate negotiator in each of the cities he operates out of and is eager to put them to work for proficiency's sake. They can help make a call or two to try and smooth over any bad vibes or misunderstandings you might have with someone.
Military Surplus	Big guns! Love big guns. My favorite. He can get his hands on most heavy weapons that wouldn't require a raid on a military base.
Syndicate Airlines	Milo's light planes make a lot of rounds and they generally have enough weight allowance for you to jump on. They're generally delivering only one or two pieces of kit in a trip and have plenty of space. Just don't expect him to haul a vehicle for you.
European Importer	Thanks to some connections within S-K, HK, FN, and MET2000, Milo is able to easily acquire weapons from European manufacturers.
Rocket Man	M&M Enterprises has the hookup for rockets and missiles, but finding the launcher is your own problem.
Orr Lives	Nobody is trying to kill you now, sweetheart. The syndicate can help you get out of town and lay low for a while.
Range Toys!	Does everyone yell at you for wanting to buy that stupid weapon? Are they telling you how bad it is? That's a good indication that Milo has a crate of them sitting somewhere, waiting just for you. It's clearly destiny, my friend. He keeps a stock of weapons that utilize the Exotic Ranged Weapon or Exotic Melee Weapon skill.
