The PC’s are hired by unknown parties (probably a Devaraja operative) to steal a set of seeds from Kestrel Agsys for some new food crop, some high-yield, disease-resistant grain strain. They are stored in a guarded facility in the Rio Vista Corridor 5D(a). The job pays $5,000 up front and $5000 on delivery for one night’s work and requires the goods to be dropped off at an arranged location. The patron offers little assistance besides “the lab is on the 5th floor of Building 8", remains anonymous, and provides a burner number to call when the job is done. That, and a chiller backpack (with a 6-hour duration), a 4kg demolition charge, and a timer/remote.
Synopsis: Dr. Elias Gray, a rogue American researcher, was attacked by a three-man hit team from the AFR somewhere along the Ikebara Megaroad. In the exchange of fire, the researcher was wounded, and a large amount of an unknown nanotoxin was released, killing the hit team, the researcher's own bodyguards, and several uninvolved civilians. This incident occurred at 16:30 on the first day of the investigation. Forensics and traffic analysis led the detectives to the Baltimora Bar and Grill. They were able to establish that Dr. Gray was in Southowilson looking for Nick Ransom, a local fixer affiliated with SDI and possibly Tex the Tech, a semi-legendary figure. It was also determined that the nanotoxin was a combination of a nonlethal paralytic agent and a "nerveburn"-type nano agent.
The following are the new and interesting NPC's and features that the PC's encountered while investigating the Altima Heavy cargo shipment aboard the MV Cargomax Darwin.
Glory Lane Fatal Stabbings
Patrol units responding to a disturbance call early this morning discovered two deceased individuals in a service alley off Glory Lane near The Mirage Circuit VR lounge. The victims, identified as Hector Raines, 46, an Australian national in town on corporate business, and Raisa Myaschev, 23, a local resident, both sustained fatal knife wounds. Investigators describe the incident as consistent with street robbery and gang violence common in the district. No arrests have been made. Authorities advise citizens to avoid the area during late hours and to exercise caution when traveling in entertainment zones.
