| Two years ago Hangman was on top. He was the most requested and highly paid runner in the U.S. Most of his runs were armored hovercraft runs from the Free States, bringing illegal goods to the cotton republics of the deep south. Eventaully his fame caught up with him and he was made at a refuling point on the Mississippi River. The unknown attaackers left him for dead in the twisted armor of his panzer. Hangman was not stupid, and he had planned for such an evenuality. He had specially contracted a horrendously expensivesmart program lying dormant in the Matrix that activated when he didn't check in. It found his body at a local hospital and through cutouts had it moved to the black clinics of Night City. There as the anonymous Ripperdocs worked on saving his life, the program erased all traces of the man that Hangman once was and created a new identity. The money ran out after his tracks were covered, but before his face was reapired. So now a new driver is in Night City making a name for himself. But someday Hangman knows he will have to deal with his past. |
