How to Get Contacts

There are a few methods of gaining access to Contacts:
 * Select them during Captain Creation at the start of a new game. (Raising Contacts level to "A" gives many more contacts and increases your starting reputation with each.)
 * Purchase an Introduction from existing known Contacts that offer that service.
 * Some Storylines automatically introduce you to additional Contacts when triggered.
 * Many Jobs' Talents generate new leads to Contacts. They are listed below. This is the primary way to gain access to new Contacts.
 * Sometimes you will find Contact cards in all of the Card game Operations types.
 * The Trait "Earthbound Friends" can earn you Contacts while Spicing.
