Terminal Six
"The terminal, a shithole where the gangster and mafioso mingle freely around the policeman for the price of a couple of tokens and the guarantee of not being on the next month's hitlist. By now I remember everything, every gang and faction, every member that's shown their face around town long enough, every nook and cranny of the terminal."
"The Kusari boys, a bunch of assholes from Sector 3 and below who try to shoot us up and fail. I don't actually know that many of their members, they're good at hiding their traces and sticking to nicknames, but I've been on the Kusari's tail for the last decade. One day they'll slip up, and when they do it'll be all over. We've made some good progress in the last weeks, actually drove out a few, made them burn their main base in the town, torched their other hiding spots. They'll be back, no doubt about it."
-
"Got them out of the terminal the same week I left... Honestly surprising how easily they folded the second we put pressure on them. Still, they'll be back, Camp Fuji will send a new batch of young and dumb freedom fighters who will meet the same fate as the ones before."
"The business boys, mafiosos and loan sharks, NICo. I know more or less all of their members by name, hell, anyone who's spent more than two weeks in the precinct can. They're big on bribery, pay up the second they get caught doing anything, and even when they aren't they probably have someone they want roughed up or shot. I try to take the bribes as only a formality, keep good relations so I can call them in for help with Kusari when the time comes, but also accept some profitable deals when it's very good. They seem to have noticed the power of paperwork, and the fact that the rest of the station seems to lack it. They've made sure to capitalize on it."
-
"Left the terminal, they're in the city now, probably to expand their horizons. I'll see if they make any offers for me, I wouldn't have a problem with a healthy retirement fund and some more power around the big city."
"The businessmen, hard to see nowadays. They're the CWU of the area, but do way less and are never around when you need them. I don't have any dealings with their people, hell, I can hardly name any."
"The TA, my people. Rats, assholes and murderers. Anyone who couldn't or didn't want to make it in the cities is here. Thankfully they've understood the way things are run here, and drop the robot shit in a couple of weeks... Except, certain officers, who seem to be in a hurry to be reinstated. Still, I like working here, the power I've accumulated, the relationships I've made with people both in and outside the force, gives me a pretty comfortable life, writing documents at my desk, forging a couple of signatures for huge cash payouts while everyone else is out there risking their life for 10 tokens a day plus meager bribes from bluesuits."
City 8 Relations:
Adrian Fisher - New Superior
"One of my new bosses. Haven't spent much time with him, so I couldn't really form an opinion, but he allows me to do my thing, even gave me an office and promised some subordinates. I'll see what kind of a man he really is soon enough."
-
"Dead, died killing Cesari and Bolskavich. I'll miss him for sure, a brave man."
'Pharma' - Former Asset
"Used him to get what we needed, he didn't succeed in his main objective but caused enough havoc to send a message. This was just the start."
Ryuji Kazuki - Paroled
"A man I spared, probably for the worse, but after what he sparked it was hard to just kill him. He has a second chance, I catch him doing anything he's gone."
Fliski - Sergeant
"Sergeant Fliski, surprised he got out. Hopefully he's still the same way he was before, he never struck me as a man who exactly... Cared. This just happens to be the exact thing I look for in a sergeant."
Menkorn - Man of action
"Menkorn's an interesting case. I don't honestly know his motivations. He's not getting any money out of this, no recognition, no coupons... What does he want and why does he do this, it just doesn't make sense. I'll take the offer as long as I can."
Trish - Had it coming
"Honestly, you did this to yourself. You don't walk to the middle of town while wanted by the police and then list of a few names and expect things to be better, especially not around a sergeant."
UC/712 - Terminated
"You had your chance. No hard feelings."
Terminal 6 Relations:
Raúl Veláquez - Sensible Henchman
"While I'd probably never even talk to a man like him under any other circumstances, these are special times, and he can offer me what I need. He's one of the more sensible people within the NICo group, easy to work with even when an instant reward isn't on the table."
Adrian Flisky - Co-worker and "superior"
"A fella I've had to work with for a while now. I got used to him. I still predate him in this shithole by a lot, and chances are I'm still going to be here when he leaves... He's my "superior" but I think we all know that's really only true on paper, I'm the one with the landline to O'Bannon and the paperwork afterall, if I say something didn't happen, it didn't happen."
Overseer George O'Bannon - Former co-worker and friend, new boss
"Oh O'Bannon... What is there not to say about him. Guy's my and everyone else's boss now, but we used to work together, be equal and all. We still play along as if that was the case, but we both know that he's above and I'm below. He pops by the station sometimes, masks it as a visit to the precinct and terminal but I think he just gets lonely after being surrounded by disingenuous suit men for months on end. I usually leave him goodies in the document boxes I give him, the DoD doesn't import much more than the essentials I've heard."
Alex Foster - Has a brain
"Another RL, got sent here pretty recently on Terminal 6 standards, means he still has some of the combine brainwashing in him and all. He's one of the more reliable people in the precinct. Make no mistake though, he's as much of a TA cop as anyone else. The only difference is that he tries to stay away from starting schemes himself, but he doesn't seem to have an interest in stopping them. I suppose I respect him more than Flisky."
Anthony D'Marco - Worthwhile
"Tony, an i2, means he carries a bigger gun than most. He's also got strings to NICo, actually useful, because he's an easy way to contact them without having to get my ass up from the seat. For a policeman on the take pretty respectable and good at what he does, sometimes he does my job for me, and I'm not complaining, on the forms it's still always me who did all the work and should get a pay rise."
Samuel Smith - Young and Dumb
"This kid, I don't like him that much, keeps sticking his nose into places that aren't his problem. Also tries too hard to act like a city cop, trying to get reinstated or something... Sure as hell isn't winning any blessings from me, I'm definitely not going to waste my time nor O'Bannon's time on this kid. Hell, he'll probably be dead by next inspection, either by the bullet of a Kusari or NICo, or by his own side after he gets too involved in their business."
-
"He died. Thank god."
Nicholas Cesari - Business Partner
"Head honcho of NICo, at least as far as I'm concerned. He knows my number, what I do, and how to get to me when he needs to. Lives just over the street too. I work with him from time to time, I accept bribes as more of a formality really, make him feel like he's in some kind of control, all I actually care about is the Kusari and having the town in a some kind of working order. Honestly, he runs a pretty tight ship, he's really made it on terminal 6 standards."
Anyone who cares enough can ask to be added as a relation, I'll add more shit later.
