Suicide Artists, XP meta celebrities who kill themselves in creative and surreal ways.
Attacking Hypercorp bodyguards with AR weapons, spacing themselves after drinking dangerous amounts of coloured dyes.
What are some of the weird and off the wall "backround" npcs and activities you have put in your games?

Re: Suicide Artists
An artist buys in somewhat shaddy district of an Earth Orbital an old piece of hardware from an Reclaimer. It turns out that this piece was part of early XXI century computer and contains multiple data files-some corrupt, some mostly useless personal garbage. But...it contains some media files as well, while most of it is porn(which has its own niche market and can give some money), it also has an interesting piece called Alien and represents quite silly but amusing portayal of xeno entity.
Moved by this piece of old forgotten art the artist contemplates on how to integrate this old art into a modern form.
Perhaps a controversial rebirth and resleeving ceremony in which the new biomorph is born from the corpse of the old morph itself sleeving itself at the moment its ribs are torn open?

Re: Suicide Artists
A player of mine is a body guard for someone who - stealing from Vinge here - creates micro-ecologies that float around in spheres of water and thin plastic. Very pretty, only works in microgravity though.
