Whether you want information, gear, or a place to stay; all can be arranged..for a price and Midas' services don't come cheap. Midas has considerable connections within Tir Tairngire, Tir na nOg and Tarislar. Midas is a sarcastic asshole but understands investments well and will save runners with exceptional abilities regardless of their metatype. He has an obsession with gold and will accept gold or expensive jewels as an alternative payment to nuyen.
