So, I got back from Gen Con last week, but I'm also busy getting ready to move to Wichita KS from Portland OR (Army guy, so moving happens from time to time)...

I'm keeping tabs on what's going on and really enjoying the interactions of the other characters, but right now, it looks like there isn't much for Gabriela to do until the next time the group meets up, or until one of them decides it'll be a good idea to scope a place out or get into some B&E.

I'm definitely here, though, reading and am ready to post when the time comes.
That's just like... your opinion, man.

What were you doing in Portland? Recruiter?

Sounds like you're going to Fort Riley. Yuck. I don't know why the Army always puts their installations in like the worst locations ever (although the Air Force has a few that almost can't be believed).

I'm actually in the AGR Program.  After spending 11 years on active duty and a deployment to Afghanistan, I discovered this sweet program where you are Active Duty, but work for the Reserves as their Full Time Staff.  All of the bennies, only 25% of the BS.

Wichita KS to support a logistics unit, we'll be deploying next year tho.  Then, this will be my last assignment before nabbing that 20yr active retirement.  Can't wait.
That's just like... your opinion, man.

@Jayde, hope you had a great time at GenCon.  Looks like the solo stuff is winding down, so the whole team should be meeting up soon.  Good luck on the upcoming move.  We'll practically be neighbors -- Okie boy here.

@Jack,

<< Working File//Query Search...
<< Spirits Nightclub >> -- Give me a Matrix Search roll
<< Club Frisco (Employment Opportunities) >> -- no roll needed.  Hiring for kitchen, hostess, waitress, and dancer positions.  GM is a guy named Rex Mori
<< Club Frisco (Floor plan/Interior Photos) >> -- This will require either a trip to Club Frisco's Host or to the DFW municipal Host.  Neither is likely to prove too problematic for Wraith.

ETA: I've added some links to the first page of the OOC for info on the targets.  If there is another post that you'd like to see there, share it, and I'll put it up.

Matrix Search [Spirits Nightclub] (5 INT, 5 Computer, +2 Hot-Sim) [8]: 12d6t5 4

I'd be open to doing a quick data dive into the Club Frisco host.

Cyberdeck: ASDF/4577; Programs: Configurator, Exploit, Signal Scrub, Toolbox [Configurator: ASDF/6468, Programs: Decrypt, Encryption, Hammer, & Mugger]

Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 4
Hits used to: Spot the Host if running silent, Grid, Firewall Rating, Attack Rating, & Data Processing Rating (If it isn't running silently)

I think Wraith has already done a search on the Spirits Club.  Here's the post, which I've also added to the first page of the OOC: http://forums.shadowruntabletop.com/index.php?topic=20657.msg373228;topicseen#msg373228

As for the Club Frisco Host, it is not running silent. 

Grid: BigStar
Firewall: 5
Attack: 3
Data Processing: 6

the Host is open to the public, and Wraith can enter freely.Its outside sculputing is rather demure actually. Stucco facade and a very art deco feel dominate, while the neon-lit piping is almost an afterthought.

Oops, I forgot about that search. I'll need to consolidate this into a document somewhere.

Club Frisco Host
Wraith will MARK the Host and Enter Host.

Once inside, she'll stick to mostly legal actions and run openly while doing so:

1) Matrix Search [Floor Plan] (5 INT, 5 Computer, +2 Hot-Sim) [7]: 12d6t5 5
Searching for floor plan files. Not doing anything with the files just yet.

2) Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 4
Trying to spot hidden icons, specifically camera icons that are slaved to the Host.

..Well, whaddya know.  Up until you move, we're practically neighbors XD  I'm in Salem myself.

Echoing others, it does seem like we have hit the end of our initial information recon, and grouping up soon.  Also, thanks in advance for the opportunities granted from this side scene, Red :)

Wraith can find the general layout buried in some ADA equivalent file on the host no problem.  It isn't protected and open for viewing.  Five hits is also enough to be able to find a separate file that appears to be actual blueprints.  It is Protected.

Matrix Perception does alert Wraith to some icons that are Running Silent. 

Let's take this to the IC.

Also, thanks in advance for the opportunities granted from this side scene, Red :)

You can add Winton as a Loyalty 1, Connection 3 contact, and make a note that he owes you a Rating Two Favor.  Also, glad you enjoyed it.  Well played, btw.  I was wondering if you were going to end up with a potential future antagonist as opposed to a contact.

All, I've got a brief IC post incoming, but it's time to get the team together again.  Should we just abstract that calls are made and you guys find a place to get together, or does somebody want to take the lead there?  Regardless, where do y'all want to meet? 

ETA; Jack, there's also the informant on Tezuka to handle.  I know we're running the Club Frisco Host right now, but let's not lose sight of that one.

Let's take this to the IC.
I figured we'd get all of the rolls out of the way really quickly and I could do a single IC post. Your call, of course.

Wraith's next actions will be to attempt to pick out cameras and sensors from the silently running icons. All still legal. Not going to try to MARK or spoof any of those devices yet.

I'm not entirely sure how this works... trying to spot all of them. I don't know if it counts as try again or not since they're different icons. I'll roll a few full rolls to start off.
Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 2
Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 4
Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 2
Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 3

Once she identifies that stuff, she'll do a Matrix Perception check on the Blueprint protected file to see if it has a data bomb, defuse the bomb, mark the file, decrypt it, and copy it. Lots of potential danger there...

That works for me.  Got some actual work to do, and I'll get to those rolls shorly.

Ok, so I had a sec to spare earlier than expected.  I roll Host Rating + Attribute for this test, correct?  Since you're working with separate icons, there is no need to take 1 die away per attempt.

Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 2 -- Miss
Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 4 -- Hit
Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 2 -- Miss
Matrix Perception [INT (5) + Computer (5) + Hot-Sim (2)] (7): 12d6t5 3 -- Miss

Wraith is able to spot the security camera placed over the foyer.

That was what I was thinking at first, but then I started wondering about the Host-Slave relationship. I'm totally willing to go with it however you want to go with it, but if the cameras are slaved to the Host, Wraith would be considered to be directly connected to them and they would only use their device rating to resist (since they probably don't have their own Sleaze rating). If she were outside the Host trying to spot them, they would benefit from the sleaze rating of the Host.

Like I said though, I'm willing to go with whatever you want to go with on this one. I was expecting a resistance test of 7 dice before I started considering it.
