Background
If you ask around about Diana Blume, and you're lucky, you'll hear about the crazy human who lives in the Carson Tenements over in Ork Town. She cooks a mean Soy Cheeseburger and if you're in trouble, and you're introduced to her, she'll put you up for a night or two. She works over at Biotech mall at a store called Gigi's Computers and Electronics where she works behind a bulletproof glass window while customers gawk and shop. Rumor has it she used to work for the cops before they turned Knight Errant.
If you ask around about Brighid, you won't find much unless you're looking for your computer fixed or you happen by Manny's Pawnshop. She's generally willing to fix most anything as long as you don't tell her where you got it from.
Whoever you ask about, you'll find that she's on the level and can be trusted in a pinch despite her oddities.

Contacts
- Jessica Storm, security supervisor at the Biotech Mall
- Jessica worked alongside Diane during her days as a cop. They both were part of the special metahuman crimes team and became good friends that lasted even after they both left for other ventures. They still get together once a week or so to hang out, have a drink, bat around a few rumours and just enjoy themselves.
- Gabe Taki, old man who plays chess
- It took Diane much patience to break the shell of this old man. At first, he wouldn't say two words to her, but as time went on, he softened up. She isn't sure exactly why but she does tease it was her famously friendly personality that he couldn't resist.
- Manny Richardson, pawn shop owner
- When she was a cop, before she made detective, she had busted Manny on a few occasions and eventually began to use him as an informant for a look the other way regarding his hidden trade. when she moved into orktown, Diane kept in contact with Manny, using his trade as a source of income for herself. Afterall, she needed a few extra Nuyen and he more than once happened upon a spare computer or other electronic device that needed some fixing. Though they've never become friends, they have a respectful business relationship that is mutually beneficial.
- Raptor, fixer
- Raptor was the mysterious fixer that contacted the group during the first session. At first, Brighid was wary of this person wanting to bring her farther into the shadowrunner world, but has since acquiesced some to consider her a beneficial contact and a decent source of income and information.
