Anyone notice there are suddenly groups of them hanging around glitz and the slums by flooded? They don't look like they're just there to be there either.

I'm not surprised, honestly. Ever since the go-gang that used to run most of that joint got flattened by some shadowrunners and corporate security, it's been suffering from a gaping power vacuum.
I guess they started taking advantage of it.

Rumor has it that they were brought in by a corp to cause some trouble. And that they're mass hiring locals from the poorer neighborhoods
PRACE YER BETS NOW- The corp-armed gangers, or the scattered go-gang clans ridin' around town!

>>159665 As the town is right now, they won't be riding for long, as they would be driving between multiple hammers and anvils simultaneously.

>>159813 And the parts were from...
Post number #159915, ID: c6b623

>>159827 An old Novatech Slimcase- or at least the chassis- along with an Aireon 1087 processor with pink cherry keys and a custom grip that I scrapped together from synth leather I pulled off of a tattered coat. Coat was full of holes anyway.
>>159843 A salvage freighter on its way back from the spaceship graveyard somewhere in the Nay. At least, that's what the ship manifest said, I wasn't paying much attention when we were combing through the garbage on its way to a smelter.

>>159915 Neat. I cannabalized and modified some Sony parts and took out the datajack parts to fit some other parts in the case. Admittedly my deck is more customized in the software side but I'm pretty happy with it. -CN

Cause no offense... that... sounds like it might fall apart. Carrying it around, I mean.

>>159997 Nah the case is pretty sturdy, I just took out the datajack portion cause I don't have one myself. The extra space gave me room for memory and processing power. Admittedly it's *technically* a prototype but it's a work in progress that gets the job done. -CN

Those restaurants that serve mostly rice and serve so much you always end up taking some home

Interesting how the fine citizens of GC know all there is about gadgets and expensive toys and dig the Net all the time while completely unaware there is a world out of GC. Well done folks. 10 out of 10 for style but several thousands minus for proper education.

Funny you say that. I am pretty sure China collapsed and reformed in to the trans Pasific Republic of the people. Or TPR.

Which doesnt make it less chinese, you dont call brits munians just because most of them live on the moon now.

True that. Yet you still know what a roman is, or what a persian is, or what an eskimo is. >>160747

Romans died out, Persians got split to bits, and Eskimos are still freezing their balls off, but invented fur lining around your hood, to reduce the amount of wind hiring your face.

To that then it is good to note that the people who live in TPR are known as the Chinese. So is called the language they speak.

>>160739 I would not be considered a fine citizen. I got my ID yesterday. I have never been through any kind of educational program on this planet. But from what I'm able to gather the Chinese are a kind of people/folk group? -GG

>>160845 Yes. They're a nationality. Like your new emploer is icelandic, Argyle Jin. His daughter is half Japanese and Icelandic

>>161012 Damn! I've heard of the Japanese before! They're the ones who invented anime, manga and hentai! Has the Icelandic done anything cool like that? -GG

>>161074 Her mother was the daughter of the CEO of Sumaragi Conglomerate. They do the manufacturing for Jinterprise Generators and some of their specialized equipment.

>>161080 She died in a terror attack many years ago. Jaquilen herself was caught up in the attack I believe. Her mother died killing 10 of the terrorists using something as a naginata so I heard. Oh, make sure not to mention that at work. They don't like talking about it. Jinterprise went dark for a long time after that. Sumaragi actually had a very very guarded funeral. Pretty much all of Tokyo was blocked off that day by Yakuza and SuCo police.

The chinese g/u/rls are very many. Like really a lot and everywhere. Most of the land out of GC has them everywhere and in asia they are native. And they stick to each other. Cultural stuff and all that.
GC seems such a bubble sometimes in what it deals with. Its like were left in the dark from everything else.
