Streetwise characters can gather information, make contacts, buy and sell on the black market, and otherwise make use of the street's unique resources. The Skill is also important for navigating urban dangers, avoiding the law, and staying on the right side of the wrong people.<br><br>

| | + | ''In full daylight, the spraypaint would have had a distinctly neon glare. In the dim light of the streetlight's periphery, it was dull and heavy. Nonetheless, the young man in gang colors was studying it intently. "Yeah, I know that tag," he finally said. He shook his head. "That's a badass marker. The Green Nails. Vietnamese. The kind of gang you never hear about on the damn cop shows, but the ones nobody in their right mind fucks with."'' |

| − | #'''F-Street Crips:''' A car full of Los Angeles Crips were ambushed last night. Apparently a single cajun tried that trick where you trap some people in a car and set it on fire. Only he couldn't get his lighter to work, and the Crips got out and turned the tables. What's left of him is on life support at General. Crips left before finishing him off, but doctors say it's only a matter of time.

| − | #'''The Cajuns:''' The Cajuns were formed last year. Most of the core members are refugees from Hurricane Katrina that never returned to Louisiana. They aren't swamprats for the most part, but inner city kids with gang histories. Since forming the Cajuns they've recruited a number of local youths to their cause.
