* Arguably, these exist in ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines'' for the PlayerCharacter, though some may consider them to be anti-hero mart. These black-market dealers include- in order of severity: a pawnshop owner selling knives and 38. calibre pistols without a license; a bored clerk at a 7-11 offloading firearms to supplement meagre pay; a Chinese ex-military herbalist with several "[[DeadlyEuphemism remedies]]" that can only be bought with cash; a black-market dealer with more than a few ties to organised crime, working from the back of his truck; finally, there's Mercurio, a Ghoul arms dealer working for Prince Lacroix, capable of finding just about anything for anyone. A borderline case may be found in the form of Pisha the Nagrajara, a flesh-eating immortal lurking in the basement of a [[AbandonedHospital condemned hospital]], who'll happily hand over some very useful items- provided you can find the occult items she's been searching for.
