Merctown Booster Boys

Lead by Davey Boy, they run the best car theft ring in Merctown.   They boosted a truck with 125mil in goods from the player group. Based on p87 of Merctown source book. Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures include sending in 2 green spotters to find and guard the mark, followed by one regular and one vet to boost the vehicle, with the elite nearby in case they need extraction. The group has encountered Greens on bikes and Quckflex Normals during the truck jacking where they lost one of their Trucks and Towjam. Later they countered Normals on a towtruck towing a red devil vehicle. Lastly the group faced the main battle tank with a Elite, Vet, and normal booster boy inside.

#87 Merctown Super Blue Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse Part 1

Tow Jam tried to hack into the virus on Dragos comlink, but the alien tech blew up his computer in response to a failed 93% roll of computer hacking.  Towjam goes looking for a new deck...

Group sees red devils watching them and scanning the comlink area that Towjam was working on.
They drive off when the group walks up.
Later they are seen being towed by some other gangers, their car shot to hell and them possibly dead inside.
Group chases down the towtruck, driven by two booster boy quick flex aliens.
The car is returned to its owners and the tow truck drives off...  Sadly one owner red devil is dead, the other in a coma.
An old lady nearby is injured in the attack and saved by Drago and Bluey.

Once stabilized the Red Devil asks to be brought to to Redemption haul.
Once there he meets Scarlett a Red Devil Leader, she has the injured red Devil taken inside to heal and talks to the group.

"Thank you for saving our friend.  I will tell you what I know.  We have been watching you for awhile to see if you were good or evil, and we have determined you are good enough *she gives a stern look at caldor*".
We saw footage of your initial visit to Merctown and the shootout

"The Booster Boys leader has been taken by mephistos horsemen, they have been forced to work for them for some time now"  Scarlett says.

There is a ritual being performed downtown at a big party.  The ritual is supposed to make the rift storm that happens at the blood moon be calm and close any rifts that open.  Scarlett says if the group helps complete the ritual the red devils will allow the pcs safe travel out of merctown to tolkeen via the magic area rift the red devils have access to.
