Rick Bio

Rick Noland was a promising Junior Executive at one of Renkaru's Retail Subsidiaries. He started out as a salesman and worked his way up to running the CyberShoppe Retail outlet. Rick had a good life, friends, a girl he was dating that he was seriously considering entering a more permanent personal contract with. All in all the ideal middle class life. Unfortunately for him, he was nominated for Regional Manager. Normally, one would think such a potential raise would have been cause for celebration. It would have been, had one of the other Store Managers not also been in the running. A man whose wife had some influence, and knew a Headhunter. Before Rick was even aware of what was happening, his bank account registered several years of strange activity. He had a Cayman bank account with his name on it, and there was a metric ton of proof that he had been embezzling money and falsifying sales. The review was quick, the trial, if you want to call it that even quicker. Within a week, Rick was out of a job, locked out of his own home, and all his assets had been liquidated to pay for the 'embezzling'.

Rick managed to scrounge together enough money to get to Denver where his bestfriend from College lived, Erik Badu. His friend let him crash on the couch in his place, but their friendship had changed and the stress was getting to both of them. Unbeknown to Rick, Erik is a small time Fixer (Free contact 2/3) in the Denver scene. His 'Day job' is that of a DJ, working the nightclubs of Denver.

Erik has recently not so subtly hinted that Rick needs to a find a place of his own. Several nights a week, Rick is forced to sleep in abandoned buildings, because Erik brings home a girl and locks Rick out of the Apartment. He's currently livingi n Korea/China Town area of downtown Denver.
