The Typhoons

Boostergang

By street explorator, Arnold Powell
PRO TIP
This boostergang is basically reskinned Maelstrom. 
If your games are set in Night City, that can be a good way to use these NPC templates.
People around here don’t like hearing “Typhoons,” to the point that I’ve seen some people wince at the news of big storms in the Pacific.

The Typhoons are a boostergang with thousands of members who reign supreme in the Old-Port of Montréal, especially the areas where they built warehouses and factories in the 2010s. You’ll find them more and more in the actual Port too, but there’s a lot of gang wars in these parts.

Or rather, this humble explorer will tell you that you don’t want to find them. These guys are chromesucking freaks, who implant shit they find on the ground for… fun? I dunno. They like to stay as close to cyberpsychosis as possible. They are tough sons of bitches, some of them do not feel pain, some of them have no exposed skin. Steel spikes coming out of their faces, too. They are masters at looking fucked up. They don’t care about that though. 

They definitely have a few ripperdocs in there too, a lot of the things they put in themselves are definitely custom. I had the opportunity to tail a few, saw a fight between them and a competing boostergang. Four of the other guys, two Typhoons. The other guys were on the roof, four floors up. Good ambush, it should have worked pretty well.

One of the Typhoons used custom cyberware to just… jump up there. I saw one of the assailant’s head splash on the street. The other Typhoon had a cheap AR, took potshots at the roof. She managed to nail one of them and kept them distracted while her friend did the dirty work on the roof. It lasted a minute, top.

Here are the stats I gathered from my encounters with them.
