Murder Minute

Sometimes the littlest things can make the biggest differences. Example: Martial Law over Region 3 of the Red River Disputed Military Zone ended at 2400 on Dec 31, 2075, with jurisdiction being handed over to the new security provider, Knight Errant Security, at 0001 on January 1, 2076. Now Knight Errant's contract of course obliged them to look into any crime happening on their watch, and of course, obliged them to take on open cases initiated by their predecessors in the Joint Patrol and BSI. However, due to a tiny loophole, anything happening between 2400 and 0001 was outside their jurisdiction. But nobody who might have noticed that thought it worth dealing with in the rush to get KE in place as Fargo's main security provider. After all, people reasoned, what could happen during a single minute?

Quite a lot, it turns out. Somehow a number of people apparently got wind of this loophole and timed a whole drekload of scores to be settled in that lawless minute. While the body count still hasn't come in entirely, it is known that over a dozen killings occurred during that 60 seconds, killings that KE will never look into.

### Known Victims of the Murder Minute

Yahtos

## Yahto's Sports Bar

* **Location:**Happy Jack Roud and Round Top, Tsêhéstáno, Tetonwan CF, Očéti Šakówiŋ
* **Style:**Motorcycle Sports Bar
* **Bias:**None

Yahto’s Sports Bar is a popular locale with sports enthusiasts featuring urban brawl and combat bike memorabilia from famous members of the Arrows and the Mustangs, such as autographed helmets and armor jackets, and memorials to popular members of the Arrows and Mustangs who had been killed in the brutal sports. Yahto’s also has a collection of combat bikes used by famous members of the urban brawl team that have since been retired or wrecked. Most have been restored for this collection.

Yahto himself was a member of the Arrows for two seasons (2067-2068) before being paralyzed from waist down in a horrific crash at the very start of his third season (2069). Unfortunately, the accident was so severe that even modern medicine could not restore Yahto’s ability to walk. Yahto’s Sports Bar has seating for up to eighty customers. Yahto’s has three backrooms that can be used for private meetings and no cover charge.

Mesametric

* **Headquarters:**​​​​​Kiowa Park Campus, 4100 Kiowa Dr, Laramie, Tetonwon CF, Oceti Sakowin 82072
* **CEO**: Marcus Ten-Cloud
* **Rating:**BBB

This homegrown corporation had been producing construction, agricultural, and military utility vehicles for the North American market for decades before it struck gold in the drone market in the 2050’s, with the Kodiak excavation drone in 2058 and the SPGD (Self-propelled Gun Drone) in 2060. Their advances in drones propelled Mesametric from a profitable minor corporation to a major player in the global construction industry and provided the capital to rapidly expand its markets and product lines. Recent innovations include their pioneering of anthropomorphic work drones (and their associated control software), restarting of magrail locomotive production in North America , and, surprisingly, a new line of electronic warfare thunderbirds and electromagnetic artillery.

For many years, Mesametric has been exclusive contractor of military vehicles for both the Sioux Nation and PCC. Mesametric's new APC and panzer releases have filled important niches for command/surveillance posts and low-cost light armor support. Mesametric has been heavily involved

Mesametric pulls a record number of runs on overseas military contractors - corps that don't view a rinky-dink outfit like Mesametric as a prime competitor, especially with misleading 'evidence' left behind pointing at another corp. They're playing musical fixers to cover their tracks, but they do have one or two regulars they use that pay well if anyone is interested. The even the classic SPGD used a 155mm main gun stolen from Ares Arms without them being the wise.

Since Marcus Ten-Cloud replaced Vern Montileaux as CEO, the expansion has gone into overdrive, moving the headquarters from its original location in Casper to Laramie, nearer to the capital at Tsêhéstáno. He dreams big, perhaps too big. As part of his long-term plan to turn Mesametric into a NorthAm version of S-K, Ten-Cloud has greatly expanded the company’s interests in the CAS, including the acquisition of several moribund steel mills and a small marine engineering firm. Not the best timing, considering Mesametric’s close ties to the PCC and the ongoing border disputes.

Theresa di Carrazo

## Captain Theresa di Carrazo

* **Name:**Theresa Maria Verdiana di Carrazo
* **Rank:**Captain (O-3) UCAAF
* **Position:**CO of SECFOR, Hector AFB, 119th Fighter Group, UCAAF, security for the F-CATC area. Co-Commanding officer (with Band Leader Elijah Rains-on-Ground ) of the Region 3 Red River Joint Enforcement Group.
* **Metatype:**Human  (*Homo sapiens sapiens*)
* **DOB:**2/13/2047, Hackensack NJ, UCAS
* **Decorations:**Bronze Star Medal, Purple Heart Medal, Air Force Combat Action Medal, National Defense Service Medal, War on Awakened Threats Service Medal, Air Force Training Ribbon.
* **Family:**Colonel Angelique [Gerhardt] di Carrazo (mother, Washington FDC), Major (ret.) Antony di Carrazo (father, Washington FDC), Mario di Carrazo (brother, Newark NJ), Roberta [Baglioni] di Carrazo (sister-in-law, Newark NJ), Gino di Carrazo (nephew, Newark NJ), Sophia di Carrazo (niece, Newark NJ), Dominic di Carrazo (nephew, Newark NJ), Lucille [di Carrazo] Castillo (sister, Providence RI), Octavio Castillo (brother-in-law, Providence RI), Cecilia Castillo (niece, Providence RI), 2nd Lt. Genevieve di Carrazo (Andrews Air Force Base, MD),Tech-Sergeant Louis di Carrazo (Garrison Petawawa ON), Paul di Carrazo (Baltimore MD)

Theresa di Carrazo was born to do this job. She's third-generation Air Force, her grand-father was is in USAF and both her parents are UCAAF, as well as two of her five older siblings. She doesn't really know any life outside the service. The UCAAF is her whole life. And she would kill (and had done), for that life, for her service and for the UCAS.

Which makes her one hell of a Security Force officer. Capt. di Carrazo lives, eats and breathes the regulations. She really feels that the regs are there for a reason and that if other people aren't going to follow them, its her job to make them. Because that's how things work. Which is why Capt. Charpentier, her predecessor, recommended her to succeed him when he went off to join General McClintock in Denver.

Her new promotion has made her only more serious about a job that she had already dedicated herself to. As co-head of the Zone Patrol, this makes her one of the chiefs of law enforcement in the region, a new level of responsibility for Theresa. And that's the best news di Carrazo could possibly hear.

* **Rating**: DD [local]
* **Senior Partner**: Sibyl Shostak
* **Business**: Criminal and Corporate Law
* **History**: Sibyl Shostak founded her own law firm in the Red River Valley shortly after the Awakening  and has come to be the most prominent law firm in the Red River Valley.

Shostak Associates is who you call if you have the money. You hired someone else? It was because you  couldn't afford Shostak Associates.

Shostak Associates has an unimpeachable victory rate and a reputation about not being too picky about how they get it.

Sibyl Shostak has been a fixture in the community since anyone can remember although nobody can remember her arriving. But she'll take the nuyen of anyone for any cause.

Except the Tiospaye. Nobody knows what the beef is between her and Whiskey Jack, but its real. She won't defend the Tiospaye or their associates. And that stands out, because nothing else will keep Sibyl Shostak from accepting money for service.

Očéti Šakówiŋ Public Works

## Očéti Šakówiŋ Public Works Headquarters

* **Location:** E. 25th St and Van Lennan Ave

In the Očéti Šakówiŋ, young adults who turn eighteen have a choice: choose either two years in the military or four years performing social work. This work can entail anything from landscaping public parks, removing graffiti, filling potholes, serving as forest rangers, cleaning up illegal dump sites, or patrolling neighborhoods as part of neighborhood watch teams to building low-income housing. Given the prestige given to warriors in the Očéti Šakówiŋ (and its necessity in achieving any political ambitions) many chose to go into the military at that age, but there are other residents who do not feel that lifestyle is for them. And so to live up to their requirement, they will opt for this work instead, despite the social stigma that comes from being perceived as a “draft dodger.”

Those who wish to buck the system and not participate in either the social works program or serve as a draftee for the SDF will typically hire deckers to break into the computer records for the Public Works department to alter records to show that they successfully completed their required service in this program. Hacking these records are considerably easier to do than trying to hack the records for the SDF, but given the Sioux Nation’s investment in data processing and security, this can still be a challenge. The Sioux Nation Public Works Headquarters is also frequently targeted by criminals looking for SIN and personal data they can use to steal identities and forge fake SINs. No one knows how frequently criminal organizations are successful in compromising the security of this data, as the authorities do not talk about such things, however, if they are careless and leave any trace of who they are, they will be tracked down the Matrix Warband and will likely find themselves being hunted by the Sioux Defense Force.

The Public Works Headquarters is located in a gray, relatively plain six-story building.

Only four blocks away from Council Fires Hall  is the Sovereign Tribal Council Lodge, holding the offices and meeting rooms the core of the organization needs. Unlike the Council Fires Hall, which houses most of the administrative offices for its bureaus for the entire Očéti Šakówiŋ. under its roof, the agencies for the STC are spread out in buildings surrounding the STC Headquarters, known as the STC Office Annex. These buildings range in height from five to fifteen stories and house NAN agencies including the Native American Environment Agency, the Native American Space Agency, the Bureau of Non-Tribal Peoples, the Native American National Reserve Bank, and the NAN Cultural Affairs agency. There is a central hub beneath the STC building that connects the STC building with the office buildings in the STC Office Annex via light rail.

Red River Disputed Military Zone

## Red River Valley Disputed Military Zone

Often simply called 'The Zone' locally, this is a region of land along the Red River of the North demarking the northern part of the border between the Oceti Sakowin to the west and the UCAS  to the east. The Zone was established as a buffer between the two nations in the Alexandria Accords after the events of 2064 nearly ended in a second open war between the two regional powers.

Legally, it is jointly administered by military officials appointed by the governing nations, although the reality is little more disjointed, with Sioux influence strongest at the northern and southern ends, Winnipeg  and Wahpeton  while the UCAS holds more sway in the center, at Fargo  and Grand Forks .

The RRDMZ contains four semi-autonomous Statistical Regions, each centered around an urban area:

1. Region 1: Winnipeg, Administrative center and largest city in the Zone
2. Region 2: Grand Forks, center of UCAAF power in the Zone
3. Region 3: Fargo, second largest city in the Zone, a hub of business
4. Region 4: Wahpeton, smallest of the four Regions, controlled by the power industry

The current Oceti Sakowin governor is the aging combat shaman Mariah Screaming Bird, a legend among the Sioux and a hero of both the Second  and Third Ghost Dance Wars. She occupies the Oceti Sakowin administrative center in Winnipeg.

Colonel Tamara 'Mad Tam' Evergreen, a recently grounded fighter pilot, is the head of UCAS operations in the Zone. She's better known for her work in Desert Wars than in diplomacy. She is new to her post, after her predecessor Brigadier General 'Iron Jack' McClintock resigned his commission and retired to Denver at the beginning of last year.

Park Island

* **Address:**302 7th Street S, Fargo  RRDMZ  58102

Island Park was Fargo's first park, part of the original townsite of Fargo platted out by the Northern Pacific Railroad. Before the Awakening it had a pool, a gazebo, a theater, tennis courts. It was supposed to have been pretty nice.

But it was also pretty close to the river, in downtown and just south of what is now the Block , and just across the street from the extensive dike system that held the Red River's floods at bay. And when the Red River Awakened during the Ghost Dance, it smashed those dikes and raged over the bounds and into the city proper. And Island Park was among the first places drowned. Even when the waters receded, somewhat, the park was still partially submerged, surrounded by the angry waters.

It takes something of the same magical effort to cross the River to reach the Park Island. Although not many do these days. Its grim and wet and filled with concreted-over spots where the nice stuff used to be. And there are the persistent rumors that it is haunted by the spirits of the troubled patients of the hospital  across the street that was destroyed in the Awakening.

But it still has a gazebo.

* **Position:**UCAS Military Governor, Red River Disputed Military Zone .
* **Metatype:**Elf (*Homo sapiens nobilis*)
* **DOB:**7/12/2034, Huntington WV, UCAS
* **Decorations:**Silver Star, Distinguished Flying Cross (3), Air Medal (5), AresArms Desert Wars Top Performer (5)

Tamara 'Mad Tam' Evergreen (callsign: Daisy) was born in West Virginia just before the creation of the UCAS and CAS out of the relics of the old USA and Canada. A military brat, she always claimed that she was born to be a fighter pilot and her career in the UCAAF certainly seemed to bear that out. A prodigy in aerial combat, she set about getting a collection of medals and commendations and rising to command the 27th Fighter Squadron of the UCAAF, where her charismatic personality, reckless tactics and almost supernatural flying ability made her a star of the Warfare-tainment tournament 'Desert Wars'.

All of this came to a screeching halt two years ago in the skies over Morocco. Sent to intervene in a nasty, three-way armed contract negotiation between Ares Macrotechnology , Saeder-Krupp and the Kingdom of Morocco, the 27th got caught in a firefight against some of Lofwyr's lesser dragon enforcers in the *drachenwachen.*Her desperate heroics managed to save much of the squadron but her own plane was shot down and the damage done to Evergreen left her in a coma for eight months and when she did wake it was to discover that severe neurological damage had left her unable to successfully interface with Vehicle Control Rig, or really any Matrix full-immersion cyberware, thus effectively ending her career as a pilot.

Unable to put her back in the air but unwilling to let go of such a photogenic media asset, the UCAAF arranged to have her replace the former UCAS Military Governor of the RRDMZ, "Iron Jack" McClintock , when he resigned his commission in 2074. Never much of a desk jockey, word has it that she is still in a bit of a transition stage, coming to terms with an entirely new type of duty, from behind the curtain rather than at the front of the stage. She works out of McClintock's old offices at the Grand Forks AFB , the stronghold of UCAS military power in the Zone, although her restless nature means that she often travels widely both within the Zone and without.

I’m sure you can explain the appeal of this place as well as I can.

*Can’t even write a little section on your own, Node? Well, I’ve come here a lot, and the first thing I’ll point out is that despite the name, even non-wheeled vehicles can get work done here. I’ve seen people fly T-birds (very carefully, natch) into the garage here. And it’s a big garage; a lot of people go in and out, so you won’t get noticed. The only caution I’d put is if you’ve angered Aztechnology  or the Aztlan gangs recently. They both do a lot of business with this place, and won’t hesitate to apply pressure where it’s needed.*

Seattle John

* **Name:** John Alexander Ignacius Stanhope
* **Position:** Chief Internal Security Officer, Ares – Cheyenne
* **Metatype:** Ork (*Homo sapiens robustus*)
* **DOB:** 7/5/2026, Seattle, WA, USA (now UCAS)
* **Education:** UCAS Marine Basic Training, Renton Training Academy – Knight Errant, Associate Degree in Metahuman Resources from Gavilan Online School

There’s a limited number of guys in the corporate world who would consider a leadership position in Internal Security at a major regional HQ for one of the Big 10 Megas to be a ‘cushy retirement’. But of that small number ‘Seattle John’ Stanhope is one of those. A former UCAS Marine, and twenty-year veteran Knight Errant officer-turned-detective in his old hometown of Seattle who lived to get his ‘gold watch’ from the company, Stanhope jumped ship to the parent company and got a position in internal security with Ares – Cheyenne, which is responsible for all Ares Macrotechnology operations in the Sioux Nation and FRFZ. The Cheyenne staff, impressed with his reputation and a bit dazzled by Seattle’s underworld mystique, quickly nicknamed him ‘Seattle John’, which he’s accepted with a big, tusked smile.

Its hard to imagine someone who fits the Ares corporate image more than ‘Seattle John’. Clean, blandly friendly and surprisingly fit for an Ork of a half-century, ‘Seattle John’ runs his department with military precision. His clean-pressed shirts, neat, military haircut and enthusiasm for physical fitness has created something of a culture among Internal Security and Metahuman Resources, raising the *espirit de corps* in this somewhat isolated unit. He is loyal to Ares and has kept his position through a pair of changes in upper management, largely by sticking to the rules, being alert and being really, really good at what he does.

The Source

*[So this is the place where I'd normally put a whole mess of biographical data, ya know, 'Name, Birth, Family' all of that bulldrek. I'm not this time because it very simply doesn't exist. And that's largely because The Source doesn't want it to. The Source is one hell of a drekhot hacker and has put a lot of effort into wiping that data from the Matrix. All that is known is that the Source is a Riverling, uses 'she/they' on the 'trix and started being noted on the local 'trix at the very end of the 2060's. So, basically, nothing. You want more? YOU go dig it up, omae...]*

The enigmatic hacker known as the Source keeps themselves to themself. Which is odd for a RIverling. And even odder for a Crew Chief. The Source managed to organize their sub-crew, the Guildies (which is also more or less the Aropagoi Guild on the Khistova Server), entirely online, mostly through the Neil's Fourth World Online game or the Vee App. Even now, as the head of the Guildies, one of the most visible sub-crews of the Big 94, The Source is rarely seen outside the crew, leaving most of the public appearances to the almost compulsively visible Race Cannon.

About the only thing outside the Guild that The Source is really known for is their love of music. Weird, cutting-edge, mathematically-complex stuff that your average streamer doesn't get. Which is why they are, entirely on the DL, often involved in the songs of local trio Saint, Mink and Tachi, largely through the Riverling Tachi, although the Source usually ends up working side-by-side with frontwoman Saint.

There are rumors about The Source, about why they're so very good at what they do. But then, what drekhot hacker DOESN'T have some rumors about being a Technomancer going around these days?

Timmys

## Tim Hortons at Graham and Fort St

* **Location:** 240 Graham Ave, Winnipeg, Region 1, RRDMZ R3C 0J7
* **Style:** What, you never been a Timmy’s?
* **P2 Rating:** [see corporate matrixsite]
* **Gang:** PAK (Portage Avenue Killerz)

There’s nothing special about a Tim Hortons in Winnipeg. After all, there’s a couple of dozen of them in Winnipeg proper and they are so common that they just blend into the background in most cities in northern North America.

Which is what makes them so useful as a front. For example, there’s more on the menu at the Graham and Fort St Timmy’s than just timbits and original blend coffee. If you know how to order, you can anything you like, from Beetles to Novacoke to prostitutes, drone-livered to anywhere you like in the downtown area. And that’s because THIS Timmy’s franchise (while in the name of the long-dead ‘Bernard Lomax’) is run by the Portage Avenue Killerz “The PAK”, one of the top crews in the 1323, who use the innocuous front and the central location to deal to the great and the good, business leaders and government officials that gather in the downtown area.

Some of the most important people in Region 1 have the ‘secret menu’ on their speed dial. And it’s even rumored that they’ve got a standing agreement to supply the Toad-in-the-Hole to keep the top players that gather there happy.

Built on the site of a decommissioned self-storage business in the ruined industrial neighborhood of North Mynarski, 'The Bulldog' serves as venue for up-and-coming acts of shatterpunk, goblin rock, rap-ajo, ergi music and other modern and fringe genres. The Bulldog is famous for both the quality of its booking (no fewer than three major acts were signed from among local unknowns playing the venue the last year alone) and the wildness of its shows (there have been fatalities at the Bulldog every summer its been open). There's pretty much no facilities, security is nominally provided by the same local gangs that usually start the problems, drugs and chips are ubiquitous and the mosh pits are unfavorably compared to an urban brawl match.

But the music is, usually, pretty good.

Shorty's

## Shorty's Bar and Grill

* **Location:**2859 Johnson St NE, Minneapolis, MN 55418
* **Description:**A neighborhood bar and grill done up "Dwarven Hipster" DIY style.
* **P2  Rating:**10:17:11

Shorty's really is a one-man operation. A little closet of a place owned, run and often operated by Sean "Shorty" McGuinness. Shorty's is a decent little bar in North Minneapolis that serves mostly as an after-work place for the blue-collar Dwarf  workers in the area. He serves a decent selection of beer and basic hard spirits. He also has a food menu, but Shorty is no cook and most people eat before they come here. His focus on heavy, dense "Dwarven Cuisine" doesn't help the stomach of the unlucky patron who has to grab a bite here.

"Shorty" himself, who is the only full-time worker, all his employees are part-time, has worked in a lot of different businesses in his time, tattoo artist, assistant brewer, minor league athlete and even some time as a small-time shadowrunner, its rumored. He now has thrown himself into his business with his typical energy, working to make his home neighborhood a better place any way he can. He coaches a little league team and is involved in the local Sons of Moria community outreach and Dwarven culture programs.

He still can't cook, though.

Tsêhéstáno City Lodge

## Tsêhéstáno City Lodge, center of city governance

* **Location:**E. 26th St. and House Ave., Tsêhéstáno, Tetonwan CF, Očéti Šakówiŋ

For sprawl-related services, the Tsêhéstáno City Lodge is the place to go. The City Lodge has offices for the city chief, his aides, and the heads of the city’s local bureaus (Public Safety, Public Works, Commerce, Zoning, and Open Spaces).

This eight-story cylindrical building also houses offices for the corporations responsible for many of the sprawl’s services, from Ares  (transit) to Gaeatronics  (power).

Thursty's

* **Location:** 85 Israel Asper Way, Winnipeg, Region 1, RRDMZ R3C 0L5
* **Description:** The hottest hot spot in the Winnipeg night
* **P2 Rating:** 2:7:103

Thursty’s is the heart of the Winnipeg nighlife, the brain-child of architect, promoter and public intellectual Paizo Hillman. It is the central feature of the newly-renovated Predock Center, a colossal, twelve-story mountain of concrete and stone, 120,000 square feet of tempered glass, and 260,000 square feet of floor space, right in the heart of ‘The Forks’ market district.

The Center has been through several incarnations, beginning as the ‘Canadian Museum of Human Rights’, then as a cutting edge trid theater, a performance art space, very briefly the Niswi-mishkodewinan embassy, and an abandoned, crumbling eyesore from 2064-2071 and, most recently, a high-profile entertainment venue, of which “Thursty’s” is the jewel in the crown, surrounded by high-end restaurants, theme bars and even a water park.

The club itself is the creme-de-la-creme of Winnipeg nightclubs, flashy, expensive, exclusive and equipped with all the pleasures you can imagine and a few you can, boasting the True Elites, Flashes-in-the-Past and just plain Trash With Cash. It has three dance floors, five bars and more private rooms than anyone has counted, and can be seen pulsing with light through glass walls of the Predock at night like a giant, living disco ball. Everybody dreams of partying there some day, but very few of them ever will...

WolfWare

## WolfWare, a NeoNET Company

* **Headquarters:**Lake Calhoun Executive Center, 3033 Excelsior Blvd, Minneapolis , MN UCAS  55416
* **President:**Michael W. Strickland
* **Status:**WolfWare is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the AAA Prime rated Corporation NeoNET .
* **Business:**WolfWare is one of top firms for the design and distribution of personasoft and skillchip programs in the UCAS. The recording, editing and customization of personas is still their core business, although the business has taken on many other aspects of the PersonaChip industry since its acquisition by then-Novatech.

NeoNET is represented in the 'Plex largely through the face of its largest local subsidiary, the persona-crafting and skillset recoding company WolfWare. Originally a developer of custom personas for Fuchi back in the 2050's, since it was bought out by Villiers Investments in '59, it has grown to become a full-service provider of persona and skill software for custom and industrial use.

Former programmer and then account executive Michael W. Strickland, who was noted for a supporting role in the Shekinah Crisis that rocked the 'Plex's Grid back during the Second Crash is a consummate company man who is so boring that its the only thing anybody in the shadows can even remember about the guy. Under his leadership, WolfWare has kept its head down and not made waves, happy to let Ares , EVO , Aztechnology  and the others duke it out on the larger stage. Although they represent the Corp in the 'Plex, WolfWare actually answers to the local NeoNET representative, Carol Drummer, who runs NeoNET's Great Plains Campus out in Fargo.

WolfWare has offices in Alexandria, Green Bay, Omaha, the NeoNET Campus in Fargo , and Gaa-ministigweyaa in the Niswi-mishkodewinan.

Saturdayers

## The Saturdayers

* **Home Base:**The Bowler, 2630 S University Dr, Fargo, RRDMZ  58103
* **Colors/Signs:**The "Saturdayers" are, after all, based off of League teams, when they want to be identified they wear their bowling uniforms, with "Saturday Night" flashes on the pocket to distinguish Saturdayers from regular league players.
* **Rackets:**Largely a fighting gang, the Saturdayers do the offices of the usual neighborhood gang stuff, part protecting their turf, part unofficial insurance association, part black-market for their friends and neighbors. Oh, and gambling. They started as groups of league teams making pools on the league finals and the insurance thing started there.
* **Description:**Bowling League Teams that also serve as part-time gangers.
* **Allies/Rivals:**The Saturdayers are, by and large, a pretty easy going bunch. They maintain sound business relations with a lot of black-market and underground outfits, and they do a lot of business with the Woodchippers  and Blind Pigs and their fellow good-ol'-boys in the Reddernecks. A lot of the Saturdayers live in GCS  buildings and serve in their buildings' Ten Miles, which gives the Saturdayers access to a lot of those resources as well. They maintain a friendly rivalry, although more in the way of a drinking, bowling, softball, karaoke sort of a way than any kind of serious beef, with their neightbors to the north on University Dr, the Mulies. They even have an understanding with the vigilantes in the Squad, because a number of Squad members are also avid bowlers, there exists a do-not-interfere rule also with the Saturdayers although that varies from day to day. Of course, even the most genial gang can't hold their turf without making SOME enemies. Their gambling and occasional raids north has gained them an ongoing beef with the Drummers. And there's that thing with the Ralphs  that neither group of barflies feels like discussing but is also not getting over anytime soon.

* **Leadership:** President Frances Pasternak-Wong
* **Status:** Wholly-owned subsidiary of the AA corporation McHugh's

Vory

## The Kirillovs

   The Vory v Zakone (russian for 'Thieves of the Code') have had a long presence in the Cities, largely because they’ve been more inclined to collaborate with the Mafia and less inclined to fuck with them. The Highland Park neighborhood and the western half of West Seventh in Saint Paul, and the Northeast in Minneapolis, traditionally areas with a large Eastern European population, are the core turf for the Kirillov Vory, which is a lesser branch Denver's Kirillov crew, run by the Kirillov's 'Cousin Alyosha'. Aside from protection, they tend to concentrate on crimes that don’t interfere with Mob operations. Matrix piracy, black intel, and identity theft are big hobbies of theirs. They’re mostly tolerated by the soldati as a longstanding part of the city culture, and because they’re somewhat penned in by the extent of the Russian population.

That said, there’s a new breed of Vory starting to come into power in the Evo enclaves in St. Paul, one much less willing to be subservient to the Don. Considering how Evo treats the southern and northeastern parts of the East Side like its own backyard, while the Mob sees it as their turf, expect fireworks.

*These new guys are tied to the Tolo Harbor Vory in Hong Kong. And just like in HK, Evo probably*
*knows they’re there. Always nice to have your own little syndicate at your beck and call. And through Evo they can get the goods they’d otherwise have to fight through the Mob to smuggle.*
- Juba

*The Kirillovs better hope they can keep their heads down and stay out of the line of fire.*
- Gopher Eater

*Too late for that, Gopher Eater. I hope, for their sake, they do the right thing and run while they can.*
-Ginebig
