Junkers and You

[Rudo]

Just dont get upset when people treat the Junkers like they are untrustworthy bastards.

Believe it or not, this is how I expect the faction to be treated.

When I play or write up RP as a Congress character, I keep in mind to balance the buddy-buddy aspects with the dark aspects. Also, to offer aid where needed not out of the goodness of my heart, but to benefit either in the short-term or long-term.

Junkers aren't the good guys anywhere they go, except to themselves. I'd go so far as to say they are what the Phantoms could be, with a good PR image and a solid commercial network.

This isn't to say individual Junker characters aren't good people at heart, but there's a certain mindset when one enters 'the brotherhood' that is taken on. Think along the lines of biker gangs; talk to a biker as an individual and he's a nice enough guy. The organization can even be credited with supporting commercial assets and 'policing' lesser criminal organizations. But underneath all the potential good and the amicability of its members, there's a lot of nasty stuff like drug smuggling and human trafficking. And a full-color biker will turn on anyone not in the gang, as that's just how it is.
