Here’s my O/Os!

I don't know who this Muse person is, but if it explains away the voices in my head, then I'm all for it!

*waves at everyone*

Not sure if this was asked or not, but is there any sort of organized crime elements in the Paradise Falls?
So as far as organized crime goes, I expect Paradise Falls would be rife with crime of all kinds. But when it comes to a gang, syndicate, or mob like presence, the thing to keep in mind is that the biggest criminal organization in Avalon in Providence Corp, in that they are so powerful anything they do is legal, or at least is once they make it legal. Compared to them any other criminal organization is going to be like the "49th street locos" compared to the Illuminati.

What I'm getting at is while they may cause trouble for those in Paradise, anything they are able to do would be beneath the notice of Providence or even Endcliff City. 
So, since Providence controls the Dernier Cri, any Paradise Falls crime ring would have no ability to effect the races.

Does that make sense?

On another side note, I'd like to welcome Fade Epharim, the Punk Pixie in the semi truck!

Go check her out on the leaderboard, and in the next race of the Dernier Cri!

Edit: We have also gained to the ranks another member of the mechanic squad, the Commodities Broker, Adelaide Marx, check her out on the leaderboard!

It makes perfect sense.  And also fits nicely into where my head is at for my character design. Thank you!
