Gaichu

Gaichu is a character and potential crew member in Shadowrun: Hong Kong.

Background
A former Red Samurai (with the former operative name of Saru), Gaichu is now a ghoul, though not a mindless one. His new status has him questioning the doctrinal rigidity of the Red Samurai; Gaichu now fights to win, at all costs if need be.

Interactions

 * Gaichu is first seen in Outsider, where he reveals how he's involved with the Whampoa Elders. If you want to recruit him, make sure you make the correct decision on how to deal with him.
 * His personal run (Retribution) can be completed with a full party of 4 runners: the player character, himself and 2 other runners. It is also the only personal run which nets a nuyen reward.
 * Like Racter, Etiquette Academic will allow you to get the various references he makes throughout your conversations with him.

Tips

 * Gaichu is a melee specialist (Close Combat 7, Melee 5 in Shadows). In fact, since his Ranged Combat is 0, he cannot use guns at all. However, he can use throwing weapons (level 6).
 * Due to his throwing weapon skill, Gaichu requires only 1 AP to throw grenades (once it reaches 5).
