DAY ONE
[X] Go talk to Tony and see if he has a job for you.
'Huh, wallet's awfully light today... Maybe Tony can help with that, first, I think I'll get some breakfast.' You stand up, taking the time to yawn and stretch before walking out into the street. While you walk, you keep an eye open for any food-vendors. After a few minutes, you spot one standing on a street corner, young male, probably 16-17. If you weren't a damned dirty freak, that'd probably be you.
"Burrito! Get yerself a Breakfast Burrito! Fill ya up fer jus' five creds! Get yer Burrito!"-$5 Credits, +3 Hunger. You walk up, buy yourself a Burrito and walk off, luckily, the kid didn't see anything off about you. Lotsa places won't sell to Muties. You lean against a wall, and five minutes later you're ready for the day. Now, where oh where could Tony be? Tuesdays, he's usually at the Park, that's where you'll go...
You arrive at the Park, almost twenty acres of genuine grass, dirt, and nature. Plus, the Park Benches make for a good place to sleep, if you're careful enough to avoid muggers. Your eyes scan over the horizon, and there he is! A jovial, portly, bearded man in a neon yellow rain slicker. Tony's a nice enough guy, when you get past the whole organized crime bit. He doesn't have it out for Muties like most folks, and better yet, he's an equal opportunity employer. As far as you know, he doesn't work alone.
You saunter up to Tony, right hand in your pocket, and wave with your left hand, you say the code:
"Any news from an old friend?" He responds in kind:
"Plenty! Why don't you come an' stay awhile?" Good, that's a yes. You walk up, he grins,
"I got plenty of work for you today, what'll you have?"[] Deliver $80 credits of Blitz to a local dealer in the slums. Blitz is a highly addictive, and highly illegal synthetic drug for Gene-Freaks like you. It gives users a temporary upgrade to their powers and gives them much better control, it also has a decent chance of an adverse reaction. Last week, you read in the papers that some lightweight fire mutant exploded in a crowded cafe. Not pretty, not pretty at all. If you do this job, you'll get paid $30 credits, this is a low risk job.
[] Do some dealing. Tony's been shorthanded lately and could use a hired hand to help sell of some of his stock. You'll get $200 credits of dope, not Blitz, Ice, to sell by tomorrow. Should be easy enough, cops don't patrol much around the neighborhood, and the worst you'd have to worry about would be a few junkies, at worst. Then again, the cops aren't easy on dealers, much less Mutants, and you've heard some stories. If you do it, you'll get a cut of the profit, 'bout $40-$50 credits, this is a medium risk job.
[] Rough up some of the competition. Recently a rival gang calling themselves the Vipers has been muscling in on Tony's territory, and that's bad for business. Tony needs you to intimidate a few Thugs that have been hanging out on Bourne's Street. Shouldn't be to well armed, almost certainly no Muties, but they might put up a fight. If you can drive them off without fighting, great, but if you have to, try not to kill anybody. If you do this job, you'll get paid $200 credits, this is a high risk job.
[] Bail on Tony, you like the guy, but this seems a little sketchy.
