The "Mutual appreciation society":

Liston Spartak aka Cochise: A Gamma tough guy, grew up in the oilfields of the southwestern CAS. Like most Gammas, he became rebellious, so when his labor group made a break for it, he came along with them. He then took on the name Liston Spartak. He began to fill the tough guy role in a Shadowrunning team as a way to get money, but deep down he has always felt a need to gain knowledge. While not incredibly intelligent, he resents the idea that his only purpose is to cause pain, even though he does like the job.

Noe Rojas Venega aka Hija: A young beta Psi with a mysterious connection to the matrix, born and raised within La Comunidad de Dawn, a strange genetic cult obsessed with the betterment of humanity. While their goal was admirable, they conducted highly controversial and many times inhumane experiments and rituals on children, like Hija. Early in her life, she was just a normal child, but she started to hear things, see things, and interact with machines without aid of a matrix device. She was deemed a prophet by the cult, however it didn't take long before an exposé uncovered the morbid and pointless rituals that the cult used. Soon after, the collapse of La Comunidad de Dawn was imminent, and Hija and two other young psi's were transported to different countries. Hija found herself in Spain where she began using her powers to get what she needed.

Alex Putnam aka Snitch: An augmented beta and veteran infiltrator with a need to bring justice to those who think they're above the law. A tragic accident left Snitch and his little brother JJ orphaned in their teens, and so the brothers turned to less than legal means of living. The brothers broke into stores, stealing food and money to stay alive. As they became more and more proficient, they went after bigger, wealthier, and better defended stores which eventually allowed the brothers to escape poverty. JJ became a journalist, while Snitch continued his career as a breaking and entering expert. During a heist, Snitch found proof that n exec had ordered a hospital demolished to make space for annother project. When releasing the evidence didn't get the justice he'd wanted, Snitch killed the man himself.

Talia Reaves aka Tag(along): An alpha, awakened, and socializer; Tag, the youngest (but most promising) of three siblings was genetically modified through extensive and invasive procedures before and after she'd been born. However unknown to Tag, her parents, and the many geneticists who'd been contracted to "perfect her", Tag was born with gifts beyond those her parents had paid for. It was these gifts that made Tag feel like a caged bird, aching to stretch her wings. Tag's parents tried their best to crush her ever growing desire for freedom, but this only served to enrage the mighty falcon inside Tag. Her parents had her enrolled in the most prestigious schools, even in her early teens she was taking college classes, and courses on how to dominate the social battlegrounds. While Tag went along with her parents strict regiment, she would have preferred a normal childhood where she could play outside, go to the movies, hang out with friends, and take risks. So basically everything that she wasn't allowed to do. On the night that changed her life, Tag at the age of 14, followed a team of shadowrunners hired by her parents, and got caught in the middle of a fire fight. To anyone else in her situation, it might have put them off the outside world. But for Tag, it was like taking flight for the first time.

Plot:

Chalk - Experimental street drug being developed by Faulks gang, supposedly able to decrease the bodies immune response to cheap cyberwear, making life easier and safer for poor augs. Tag was hired to retrieve an experimental batch for a well paying and secretive Johnson.

"Metropolis" - The dark, poor, decrepit underbelly of England. What started as a way to preserve space (and keep the skyline appealing to tourists) has become a massive underground network of slums between Liverpool and Manchester populated largely by Gammas. The place where it all started, and our protagonists met...

Lord Furnival, aka Mercurio: Founder of Furnival energy, the company responsible for saving the UK from financial collapse. Hired Rhys to monitor Tag. Is now hiring the team to investigate the theft of two lemurian artifacts from his collection.

Lemurian Artifacts: It was recently decided that the continent Lemuria was in fact real, and the remnants are held in extreme value. Furnival owns a sizable collection of these artifacts.
