Gottfrid Persson

Gottfrid Person is the father of Fredrik Persson and a braindance editor in.

Biography
Gottfrid built up a lucrative infrastructure within Maelstrom to produce illegal braindances (XBDs) featuring real murder scenes. In that capacity he does not only produce and refine the "merchandise" together with his son, but also seems to have extensive control over the selection and acquisition of the victims, one of which was Bryce Stone's son. Gottfrid also has control over the distribution of the product, which appears to have involved XBD street dealer Lenny Nero.

Having many enemies, Gottfrid's database is well protected, which caused at least one netrunner hired by Regina Jones to be fried in an attempt to access it. Moreover, his power within Maelstrom seems to be substantial as he not only sends his "boys" to hardware acquisition raids, but also has a large detail of goons protecting him and his son.

In 2077, fixer Regina Jones sends merc V to Gottfrid's hideout to retrieve an XBD that might contain information on the murder of a client's son. V finds both Gottfrid and his son unaware while editing an XBD. As V gets their attention, they both plea for their lives, falsely claiming that they only refine the braindances based on dead drops provided by Maelstrom and therefore are not complicit in any murder. V can then retrieve the XBD themselves or force them to tell the merc where it is. During this conversation, V has the choice of killing either, both, or neither of them before leaving.
