We still have access to KE files and IF they follow directions will spend time scouring the scene. We have some info and a trail with the cameras yet to follow and we have a scene that is secured by KE. If we need to come back we can.

EDIT: I was working on trying to put together a post but got caught up with real life and had to take some of my pain meds. I don't want to post something so in depth as we are right now when I have some heavy meds screwing with my head so I'll have it up first thing tomorrow.

Did we pinpoint the location of the fire in the room? Or only that it was it was started by an explosive?

Edit: Ignore the edit. Being we were actively linked during the investigation, I went off of the OOC information.

Edit 2: Con roll to hide our bond from Skynet in my text.

Con roll against Skynet: 13d6t5 1
Lol, bombed. Oh well, I'm sure he'll find out sooner than later anyhow :p.

Edit 3: Hmm, I just realized this, but we're assuming that the Elf was a mage aren't we? I just went back through some of the IC and OOC, and I don't think Ryo ever actually noted that she was, and I didn't ever specifically assense the Elf.

Edit 4: Hate to make assumptions, but I guess we're left with that now unless stix wants to quickly run back to the building by projecting and check the elf's corpse out.

Assensing a corpse won't tell you if the person was a mage while alive, since dead things don't have Essence, let alone Magic ratings.

Oops. Welllll I'm gunna omit that bit of my post then so that Thorn doesn't seem completely incompetent.

120437Z MAR 76 is 4:37 AM Greenwich (UTC 0) March 12, 2076 right? Which is the time the Facility runs on.

So we are at the scene now at 112136U MAR 76. Which is basically 9:36 pm PST (UTC -8) March 11, 2076, although it would be 5:37 the next morning going by base time. So we've covered roughly an hour's worth of time during this mission?

I took a moment to understand the timestamp so that I would know when we were in the post. Did I do alright?

Yup, that's the military standard time code. I don't know why they put the day first and then the time, but that's how it is. Explaining how to read the time stamp was one of my first OoC posts.

It's been a little over an hour, probably close to 1 hour and 30 minutes now that you've completed your investigation.

As for the time stamp, its in military time format.

With the new information about magic being used. Does that affect who Detective thinks is likely to have done the job?

Intuition 4 + Shadow Community 1 + Mneumonic Enhancer 3 + Analytical Mind 2 = 10d6 [Limit 8] (10d6.hits(5)=3)

The use of Magic muddles things a bit, as Manticore has never been known to use it, and as he works alone, he isn't known to work with any mages. If Thorn's two team theory is correct, the Mage would be part of the second team.

So either its two teams, and someone managed to convince Manticore to not work alone on this one, or someone is trying to frame Manticore, and doing a really lousy job of it from how severely they're messing up his MO.

One more quick question and I will put up a post.

What corpses showed signs of cyber? Especially focusing on the two burned in the fire.

Logic 8 + Cybertechnology 4 = 12d6[Limit 8] (12d6.hits(5)=4)

Neither of the bodies in the fire look cybered. The troll and the ork look like they have signs of cyber, but you'd have to autopsy them to know what specifically.

Would it be reasonable/SOP for Waffe to contact someone back at Cygnus to have some labwork done, or would they do it locally?  If locally, Waffe can reach out to his KE contact and try to leverage that for a lab report, it'll also give him a chance to "explain" the call from earlier.

I would assume locally, as its not really feasible to ship a dna sample back to Cygnus expediently. Better to use local KE resources.

Guess it's time for Waffe to set up a meet with Ralph.  Any objections?

[Ryo]

Other than Scawire trying to get info on Manticore, I think you're pretty much done here.

Hey, Ryo, I just had a thought, and I was wondering how you wanted to handle it.

I double checked both my PDF and my OOC post of Thorn's character sheet, and I don't believe he's taking meds for his ADHD. Most ADHD medicine are actually stimulants, so could I role play him as being more calm and collected when on cram? He's still mildly addicted to cram of course and will eventually have to roll for it.

I could even say he's self medicating if you're ok with the idea I had. I think that this fits Thorn pretty well by not wanting to be hooked into going to the man every month to get his meds. I thought that'd be a fun (and accurate) direction to go, but I wanted to see how you felt about it. If you don't like it, then I'll just go with how the book lists it. (Thorn wouldn't get a bonus to his Illness roll from the cram because while it helps its obviously not the correct medicine or right dose that he actually needs)

Jazz would definitely make him jittery and jumpy, but I think maybe not quite to the degree its described in the book. Kamikaze wouldn't change at all.

Thank you ever one for the great game but work has picked up to a level that I will be unable to continue my two games on this site. Sorry if this causes any problems in the game.

I'd like to wish you all loads of fun in your travels in this stellar game Shadowrun.

I'd also like to make a request of the GM. My character Stix would love it if he could be a contact for free to the group, maybe a random lvl 2 or 3 for the team from base and a starting lvl 1 for our new 'trix wiz. Also could you please let the group have the option to call in my contact Zack "the hack" through me if needed on this rescue mission, as away to help out these four fine runners.

Thank you all again.......

........ Adventure aways and hopeful fun will be a reward in all your hearts.

Trust me understanding real life takes precedence. I have to say I have enjoyed playing with you and look forward to when you get a chance to come back to play more games together.
