Contacts

Contact: "Q", Astral Entity

Quetzalcoatl, or "Q", is the Loco's imaginary friend from his childhood days. Except that he's not imaginary. He's a mysterious Astral entity that manifests as a quetzal bird, Quetalcoatl, jaguar warrior (ancient Aztec), or a spanish scholar.

Q tends to manifest only when Loco is alone. So far, Q has been a confidant, advisor, and teacher to Loco. He has demonstrated knowledge of magic, Spanish, various european and latin american languages, many fields of history, and those topics common to a wealthy lifestyle, such as viniculture, fencing, etc.

Contact: Chacho, Spider Shaman, Lieutenant in Jade Jaguars

Chacho is the closest thing to a friend that Loco has in his gang, the Jade Jaguars. Chacho can actually see Q and occasionally manages to talk with Q; Loco finds it easier to be around Chacho.

Contact: Mikos, Street Doc, Touristville, Redmond Barrens

Mikos is a caricature of a Greek man. He is loud, hairy, and jovial. He has a pungent body odor for a doctor and he often wears his shirt unbuttoned to the point that one wonders if he is going to work or heading to the disco. Mikos came to Seattle with a Greek medical degree and the intention to get licensed to practice medicine in Seattle. Complications arose and he soon found himself setting up a clinic on the edge of Touristville in the Redmond Barrens. He does his job very well and manages not to piss off anyone, which makes him a very popular street doc and mutually protected by his various and frequent customers. Mikos was the first street doc Loco visited, and it was he that installed his smart link.

Contact: Crazy Jose, Armorer/Fixer

Crazy Jose is an ugly hispanic man, in spite of his Elven heritage. He used to be a gang executioner and an unholy terror on the streets, but he fell asleep one night while smoking a cigarette and woke up in flames. There wasn't much of a Fired Department in the Barrens and it was a miracle he survived at all, but he didn't get the treatment he needed to get back on his feet. After he recovered, his body was frail and his voice garbled, but it didn't stop him from continuing to smoke. Sitting at a bench working on the guns he used to tote was the best deal he could get and it worked out well for him. He did his job well and even expanded to selling gear, primarily stuff related to guns, but branching out to commonly used street gear. People tend to come asking around for shooters to hire as well, and he's making some decent cred with that on the side too.
