darkwire
Corpos are bad, something something Shadowrunners.
In Character, Darkwire is a loose decentralized network of professional criminals (and the Corpos they oppose). Out of Character, we are a faction that is championing stories over "Map Game Mechanics".
This is a reference list for slang and vocabulary terms for Darkwire and its related stories (such as on the worlds in its cloud). If you're interested in general Star Wars slang, there are great references already here and some new ones here.

"Then have the Captains of Wann Tsir reached a consensus?"
There were grumbles. There always were, low utterances to be carried away on the winds that flowed constantly through the open-air skiff. Hovering above the city of Ke Wann Awanga, the Council of Captains meeting was a public affair, so...

and now the conclusion:
None of the projections were lining up anymore. In truth, they had been on a consistent decline for a while, but at every turn there were promises. Promises from Accounts that the numbers could be re-run and variables double-checked. Promises...
DENON
A BAD PART OF TOWN
SHORTLY AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE
The Corpos saw the flashpoint as just another assault charge, just another unemployed migrant decking a CorpSec trooper and getting incapacitated with extreme prejudice. Never mind that the migrant in question was a Kubaz refugee from the...
The cybernetic woman looked over the recent reports she could still get her hands on from the supervisors that were still freely speaking with her. Reports of withdrawals and violent outbursts from those suffering under the corporate thumb of Man-flu cutting into the profit margin for the strip...

The newcomer had arrived on Denon for the first time mere hours before, but with each passing moment, she seemed ever more at peace with the place. Even half a galaxy apart from her presumed planet of birth, some aspects of the worlds and cities crafted by humanity and...
OOC/ The format's a little different for this thread. Each post could be as little as a picture and a blurb, and the picture's the important part. Ideally we tell loosely-connected stories together in first-person vignette snapshots. This thread format is ideal for people who want to hop in for...
Kadora'Tra found herself missing things today.
She missed the thrill and freedom of Altier.
She missed the naiveté of childish things.
She missed having her own personal quarters.
She missed the days when she had her own unique identity.
But most importantly, right now, she was missing her...
