Big and red-bearded, Edgar used to work for Renraku as one of the middle managers in the Arcology's security. He had a secure pension, and according to rumor, a wife and kids. He'd pretty much risen to the level of his interest and competence in the company, and could basically rely on the rest of his life looking pretty much the same, barring something unforeseen like an unfortunate shadowrun or something. Of course, as everyone knows, the rogue AI Deus was pretty much the definition of "something unforeseen." | Big and red-bearded, Edgar used to work for Renraku as one of the middle managers in the Arcology's security.

So, he settled into the life of the SINless in the Redmond Barrens, and found an easy enough job as a freelance security consultant at the Redmond Center Hotel and Dining Room. He's onsite security chief, with a small room and his meals taken care of by the restaurant. Cushy, as far as Barrens work goes, really.

Of course, as everyone knows, the rogue AI Deus was pretty much the definition of "something unforeseen."

Mama Sylvie is a cigar-smoking dwarf of Caribbean extraction, and is pleasantly rotund. She wears her frizzy hair pulled and pinned back with a dozen different barettes and clips, and the whole covered with a white headcloth. Likewise, she wears immaculately white skirts and sleeveless tops.
Mama Sylvie is a talismonger who found her way to the Plastic Jungle many years ago as a young mambo seeking to understand why Le Gran Bois, the great forest loa would lead her to the heart of the Barrens. She settled in and has become the defacto healer and care-taker of the Plastic Jungles in her own way. She has staked a claim to a large swathe of area she uses as a garden and enchanting workshop, filled with all manner of impressive plant and animal life.
