Slicks

The Slicks are a criminal gang, primarily located on Hebrin, who are known for their use of bodily cybernetic enhancements as well as the predilection for violence and serious law-breaking.

Description (Specifications)

An offshoot of the Cybes, unlike the Cybes, the slicks seek to enhance their bodies by the use of discreet augmentation, not visible under common inspection, on a world like Hebrin these enhancements have to be purchased off world, or imported along with sufficient medical expertise to safely install them, all of which takes vast amounts of money.

History & Background (Dossier)

Thus it is believed that unlike the Cybes the slicks must be made up of hardcore criminal types that have the backing of a larger organization, such as the Shadow Cartel. Indeed discrete cybernetics could be very useful to an organization like the Cartel. Whilst they used to be members of the Cybes, modern day Cybes consider the Slicks to have 'sold out' and betrayed Cybe values, preferring to live in secret amongst the 'normals'.
