  • Background: Family lost everything due to bad management. That's why Mel became a fixer, it's not enough to be good as whatever it is you do, you have to know how to leverage contacts and resources.
  • Friend: Someone I know from the Street. Mel's buddy from the street is some kind of street performer. Mel gives money when he has it, and they talk about music.
  • Sweet Revenge
    • Ex-Friend: You just don't like each other, Themselves and a few [1d6/2] friends. A retired teacher. They used to drink at the same bar, and at first the conversations were fun. But over time, they got sick of each other's name dropping and the conversations turned into arguments. They still run in some of the same circles.
      • 2: Avoid the Scum: They've taken the healthy approach and try to stay out of each other's way.
    • Ex-lover 1: Deserted or betrayed the other, Just themselves and a close friend. Mel's ex-lady got caught up in a con and ended up owing the wrong sort of people a lot of money. She asked Mel for help, and he ghosted her. Not his problem, he wasn't that into her.
      • Verbally Attack Them: The Ex and her cuz, are ready to read Mel the riot act and let everyone know what kind of man he is.
    • Ex-lover 2: Caused the other to lose face or status, The local cops or other Lawmen. Mel ended up in a serious relationship with a detective/investigator when he was working as an informant. When one of her investigations was looking like it would interfere with the work of another client of his, Mel refused to give his boo information she needed. He ended up losing the client and the lover. This one hurt.
      • Backstab them indirectly: Mel screwed her over, she's just waiting for a chance to pull the rug out from under him when he least expects it.

  • Side clients: Local Rockerboys or Medias who use you to get them gigs or contacts.
