Vayas

Archetype: Human Dock Worker

The leader of a group of dock workers who work for a while for an employer before ripping them off and moving to another city. He is deaf and communicates via a custom form of sign language only he and the rest of the team can interpret. He also owns the Semi which is the base of operations for the group and is also used to transport most of the stolen goods.

Moore

Archetype: Human Dock Worker

Born and raised on the docks, Moore gets into more fights than a professional boxer. Sometimes he wins, sometimes he loses, he just appears to enjoy kicking ass, or getting his kicked. He is the first to volunteer to take out a security guard if need be.

Cooloch

Archetype: Human Dock Worker

Too cocky for his own good, Cooloch often takes unnecessary risks during an operation. He has been arrested numerous times, each time getting bailed out by some unknown individual. He drives a nice car.

Lairid

Archetype: Human Dock Worker

Mentally disabled, Larid is mainly used for his extraordinary strength. He is the only one of the group who has any cyberwear and not even Lairid himself knows where it came from. He does not know how to fight but can take a punch without budging. He also plays the harmonica extremely well.

Simone

Archetype: Human Dock Worker

The only member of the group who posses a firearm, a sub machine gun. He has never had to use it and does not really want to. He is the most athletic of the group and usually is assigned to find out as much about the site they are going to rip off as he can. He does have the nasty habit of getting shot, actually the rest of the group plans on it happening every other heist.

Capp

Archetype: Troll Dock Worker

Capp only occasionally works with Vayas and the rest of his gang, most of the time doing something else. Most believe shadowrunning. When he does show up Vayas lets him take over as the effective leader of the group. Most jobs go over easier when Capp is in charge.

Jimmyslime

Archetype: Human Fence

Vayas works with two Fences on a alternating basis. For this reason Jimmyslime hates Gleek and Gleek hates Jimmyslime. During the negotiation process, more is covered regarding the fence's nemesis than actual business. Jimmyslime is the sleaziest of the two, starting out negotiations as a ridiculously low price and taking forever to work his way up. He drives a beat up Americar with a bumper sticker advertising Picket Fencing.

Gleek

Archetype: Ork Fence

Gleek has actually planned attempts on Jimmyslime's life, all of which have gone off very badly. Gleek gives Vayas a better price than him, almost going broke just so he can stay one up.
