**Nine Lives**
The local leader and psychosurgeon of Nine Lives who worked on Tox. He's the only one who knows where and how exactly he acquired her Ego. He is very interested in tracking down Tox to prevent her from possibly blowing the lid on his operations and retrieving [name's] cortical stack to reinstate their influence with the local government.

**Sinsitive**
A high-class brothel and escort service acting as a front for Nine Lives

**Coworkers**
Who knows who most of her coworkers really were before finding themselves "employed" by Sinsitive. The fact that one of them began to work there mere weeks after a student disappeared from McGill University is surely a coincidence. People inexplicably disappear all the time afterall.

**Jaron Kaelen**
A corrupt politician heavily involved in Ego trafficking. He was often paid in kind by Sinsitive in turn for keeping the authorities off their backs and producing new identities for Nine Live's merchandise. He was the accidental victim of Tox's outburst. She is not aware how much the person she's effectively carrying around in her pocket is involved with her situation.
