If under coercion (drugs or otherwise), you gain +4 to resist orders (if applicable). Ganger - 2 points Avenge an insult. Protect fellow gangers. Your gang's enemy is your enemy; Defend the gang's honour and it's turf. Dealer - 2 points If you are paid for a job, you will do your upmost to finish it. A dealer's word is binding and you will honour it (even if others don't - to a point). Gunslinger - 2 points Never shoot an unarmed man. Never shoot someone from behind. Never take advantage of an ambush situation. Never set a trap except to defend your home. Corporate - 4 points A business promise must be kept. Always remain true and loyal to your patron corporation. Always try to treat other business persons with respect. Remember those who welch on a deal. Cop - 4 points Never kill unless it is absolutely necessary. Uphold the law. Remember that suspects are innocent until proven guilty. Do not turn a blind eye or accept a bribe.

Major Criminal Record (2 point penalty) You have a "rap-sheet" that's "as long as my arm!". Your vital stats are kept near the top of the search engines for Modus Operandi with local police forces and the FBI, and the cops start talking to you or monitoring your activities whenever something happens that could be your doing. Bad Reputation (2 point penalty) You have a street reputation that does nothing to improve your standing with anyone. This could be earned or not, but it's always something nasty like being a betrayer, liar, psychopath or rapist.

In addition you must make a Cool roll at -2 to even consider putting up a resistance to seduction attempts from your prefered sex.
