The Notorious

The Notorious in the game is a feature that can be enabled while setting up contracts using a setting called "Team AI". When turned on, the AIs are picked at random. The number of The Notorious changes depending on how many people are in the mission.

The Notorious
The Notoriousis a group of criminals responsible for carrying out organized crime. There are numerous members including Onyx, Harlem, Ash, and Shade. Their leader is a character named Jade. They are enemies of law enforcement and several other organizations.

Onyx
Onyx is the mastermind of the group, having years of experience. He is a calm and collective man who chooses to follow a "no-nonsense" lifestyle. Many years ago, Onyx and his crew attempted a robbery, but it went wrong, resulting in him losing his crew. He is still constantly haunted by this memory and spends countless nights carefully planning details for upcoming jobs.

Harlem
Harlem got his name from the NYC neighborhood where he was born and raised in. Opportunities were few and far when growing up, and those that did involve getting his hands dirty in one way or another. This has led to the man he is today, unflinching even in the face of death. While the Enforcer role of the notorious isn't considered "ideal" to him, he doesn't ask questions as long as he's paid.

Ash
A very spontaneous man that might enjoy his work a bit TOO much. The youngest of the crew, he has been regarded as a Master Technician. However, he chooses to get himself mixed up with what society considers "the wrong crowd". He calls it "looking for the next thrill." He was invited to the crew after cracking into what was believed to be a highly protected government server, that turned out to be a decoy set up by the Narrator.

Shade
Shade is the quietest of the crew, not having much to his name. Instead of focusing on brute force, he prefers to leave as small of a footprint as possible during jobs. What he lacks in strength, he makes up quickly for in his swift and agile ability. With quick wits and even quicker strikes, he is capable of pulling off even the toughest of jobs without violence (and more importantly, alarms.) This makes him the perfect fit for the Notorious as their resident Ghost.

Trivia

 * Shade has a higher chance of using high concealment weapons ( like the P90 ) in loud compared to other weapons.
 * Harlem has a higher chance of using shotguns in loud compared to other weapons.
