Small army of loyal mercenaries

Floating mansion where nobody can find it

Access to all knowledge ever

Ability to influence politics everywhere with no one being the wiser

We are tracking down the mysterious Shadow Broker, and no one is safe. We'll do anything to recover the kidnapped runner... and the Shadow Broker's agents will do anything to stop us. Team up as we chase clues from the luxurious heights of Metropoles to the Shadow Broker's own secret lair.

The Shadow Broker is an enigmatic figure at the head of an expansive organization which trades in information, always selling to the highest bidder. The Shadow Broker appears to be highly competent at its trade: all secrets that are bought and sold never allow one customer of the Broker to gain a significant advantage, forcing the customers to continue trading information to avoid becoming disadvantaged, allowing the Broker to remain in business.

Shadow Broker Base

The Shadow Broker Base is a massive ship that travels through the volatile event horizon of a permanent mana storm in the middle of the ocean, concealing its presence. Located somewhere between America and Oceania, it is from here that the Shadow Broker rules his empire.

Exterior

The exterior of the Shadow Broker's ship is a hazardous place. The Shadow Broker's private army patrols the exterior, and Maintenance Drones tend to the hull and the systems on the exterior of the ship. The exterior also has no hand or guardrails making it a dangerous place to patrol. The atmospheric conditions of the event horizon don't make the process any easier, but the risk of patrols being struck by stray lightning bolts from the omnipresent electrical storms is mitigated by large conducting rods that channel energy into giant hull-mounted capacitors.
