Pacifica has everything you would expect of a place with such an infamous reputation. Shady locals, sketchy shops… and the presence of the enigmatic Voodoo Boys. Enigmatic how, you ask? After all, it is not uncommon for close-knit gangs to harbor secrets about which the rest of the city is completely unaware. And the Voodoo Boys are no different from any of those groups... Right?
Now ask yourself this: Have you ever witnessed a gang shootout? Probably more times than you can count on two hands. And who was there? The Valentinos, Tyger Claws, Maelstrom, 6th Street... but never the Voodoo Boys. Never them.
Depending on who you ask, you will hear different stories and opinions about this reclusive gang. They are the de facto leaders of Night City's Haitian diaspora. They slaughter black roosters in blood sacrifice (God only knows where they get them). They commune with their ancestors through prayer. They summon ghosts and allow them to assume control of their bodies. They bring pain, disease and suffering to their enemies' doorstep with the help of occult voodoo dolls. Perhaps, you think, some or even all of these claims are just hollow rumors... but can you be so sure?
Some say they have witnessed Voodoo Boy netrunners in the Deep Net. Surrounded by Vampires and Leviathans, they traverse these strange depths of cyberspace, both more beautiful and dangerous than we could ever imagine in realspace – their objectives there known only to themselves...
So, who are they? What are they searching for? What is their plan? In the end, perhaps we shouldn't ask ourselves these questions. Indeed, some secrets are better left undiscovered.
