The Piranhas

Structure

Piranha membership fluctuates constantly, as the party lifestyle chews up some members and attracts others. The top-level leadership, however, stays constant: a crew of young geniuses at the top of their game. Corpse Reviver and her right-hand badass, Bazooka Joe, recruit from clubs throughout the city.
After years of recruitment and training, the Piranhas boast some of the city’s best cooks, dealers, MCs, light and sound crews, mixologists, chefs, VR artists, dancers, security teams, bouncers, adult entertainers, and of course, clean-up crews.
They know that bad shit goes down at parties and they ensure that bad shit doesn’t leave a stain.

Culture

Any Piranha would say the goal is to be the only place to party. But Corpse Reviver would tell you it’s to create her own fucked-up little family that keeps people like her safe while taking money from the rich leeches to fulfill their wildest (and most boring) dreams. The Piranhas seek out young and wealthy elite to lure them into the party lifestyle, and feed them a steady stream of drugs and fantasies to keep them hooked.
It gives the Piranhas all the leverage they need to stay on top.

Public Agenda

Can you put a price on bliss? The Piranhas have the cost – and the drugs to give it to you. Whether you need a mile-high party with no budget or the slickest show possible for your gang for only a few Eurobucks, the Piranhas got you. Once known as the grunge garage partiers, the Piranhas have worked their way into becoming the one-stop shop for all things exclusive, shiny, and fucking lit.
Nowadays, there’s a Piranha at every party, teeth shining. Wherever a good time is needed, the Piranhas lurk, providing everything anyone could want to guarantee the best night of their lives, transforming the post-scarcity Time of the Red into a neon wonderland.

History

Tired of living life on hard mode, Corpse Reviver took control of the Piranhas after her predecessor overdosed. Under her leadership, the Piranhas absorbed several other two-bit party gangs, including an attempted retread of the DJs. She brought them all together, embraced their talents, organized them into cells known as “shoals,” and introduced the idea of what they would become: the reigning party monarchs of Night City.
For every group she brought in, the Piranhas gained something new: light and sound techs, mixologists, cooks, dancers, and more. Like her namesake, Corpse took the bloody remains of a half-dozen burned-out gangs and raised them into a force capable of conquering the Night City party scene.
Since then, the Piranhas haven’t looked back. They take every opportunity to bring in fresh blood from the streets and pull the most influential people into their circles as clients.
Now there isn’t a killer party in Night City without a Piranha somewhere in the mix – designer drugs, craft cocktails, entertainment that slams, and the security to keep it all a dirty secret.
