Combatters

These guys aren't violent for the sake of violence - they just like to kick ass, preferably against willing opponents, though this isn't always the case. Most often, they restrict weapons to "honorable" ones (e.g., knives, etc.) and are as likely to go toe-to-toe with boosters as another combat gang. Many street solos find their beginnings in combat gangs. Combatters have developed the hard earned and dangerous skill Combat Sense, enabling them to run the edge during a fight and see danger coming from a distance.
