Known Associates
- Stripe. AKA psycho bitch women. Speedy's sort of nemesis, who she spends far too much time working to help because Maclaine is a sap.
- Myst. One of the few "survivors" from Speedy's early career and technically one of Speedy's oldest friends, if the silly cow can be prevented from losing her memory, being brainwashed, kiddnapped or mistaken for her twin sister for five minutes.
- Coffee. Along with Myst, Coffee was part of Speedy' first team, a fact which has left mental scars.
- Marty O'Rafferty Marty is Speedy's human half brother, he is, as they say a bastard.
- Maclaine Teammate, gunmonkey and all round mega-trouble magnet. (he's been quite for too long.......)
- JC Shapeshifter magic user and inventor of the "Operation Housepet") escape plan. I was a bit upset about the whole Steppin Node FUBAR and that time he shot the guy whose life I was trying to negotiate for in the head. But looking back on it, that was just his way you know? On balence he is still a great guy and good to have on your side.
- Tofu Great guy with unfortunate physical resemblence to Coffee.
- Kendo Some people think of Kendo as remorsless killing machine bound only by his alien sense of honour, but I know he's really just a great big pussy cat on the inside.
- Solitaire willing to help me try and get Myst drunk for a laugh, a great conversationalist once you get past the obviouse comunication difficulties and very effective at mayhem and slaughter, what can I say? I like her. Though her superior Skill Wires and skillsoft library fill me with envy.
Current Status
- looking at the money and weapons from the big score on the Extream ways mission and deciding what new stuff to buy.
Played by Joe in the New Orleans Campaign.
