Sensing their chance the federal UCAS party is going all-in, flooding nuyen and staff into the Metroplex to give a final push. But with political neophytes flooding Seattle, dangers and opportunities for political embarrassment abound.<br /> <br /> ==Background==<br /> Hassan Bahreini, the visiting Youth Chair for the DeeCee NCP, has been tasked with creating PR opportunities for the party and creating new enthusiasm amongst young SINned voters. Unfortunately a committee under his responsibility (but unwilling to listen to reason) is deploying a project into the lawless lands of the Rats Nest to create automated greenhouse pods for the locals. Unable to purchase their protection from a final mysterious group, Hassan turns to the local shadow talent to help purchase safe passage for the NCP students…or eliminate the threats on the ground.<br /> <br /> ==The Meet==<br /> The team is contacted directly by Hassan, who invites them all to a large political rally in Puyallup City. The event is being held to provide services to the SINless (medical, food access) and to encourage them to register for SIN ownership. There is a large Knight Errant presence (having been embarrassed repeatedly with security failures during the election in recent days) so the team proceeds carefully. Once at the rally Hassan meets them, explaining his situation. The team will have over a week to pull off whatever plan they can come up with. He offers them the money he has budgeted, the team pushes for more, and Ka$hious runs laps around him in Negotiations. Having barely any discretionary funding left he offers to serve as an intermediary to connect them to others in his political network. The team agrees, and leaves to make their plans. <br /> <br /> ==The Plan==<br /> Sizzles jumps into the Matrix to do legwork. They discover that the specific area of the Rats Nest that the NCP students selected is home to a small, isolated, but dangerous cult following an entity known as The Gambian. Delving deeper Sizzles discovers that The Gambian is actually a Euro runner, Black Death, who went missing years back. They were presumed dead after a failed run against MCT. There are rumours he uncovers that suggests that The Gambian escaped, carrying some sort of prototype ‘ware and/or an infection. MCT put out a bounty that has never been claimed.<br /> <br /> The team tracks down an old running mate that has long retired, Der Opa, who runs a boutique timepiece shop in Seattle. Thunder uses his shared German connection and brings good German beer and peanuts, making a great impression. The team learns from Der Opa that The Gambian was a very powerful combat mage and is now an unstable Headcase with multiple personalities fighting for control.<br /> <br /> Ka$hious realizes she has a good contact who is a nano-expert, and after contacting them they realize that The Gambian might be curable. <br /> <br /> The team decides they will try the following in order of attempts:<br /> <br /> 1) Have Ka$hious convince The Gambian to willingly come in for treatment.<br><br /> <br /> 2) Knock out The Gambian if he refuses and/or attacks Ka$hious and try to bring him in.<br><br /> <br /> 3) Call in the bounty with MCT and hope that MCT takes care of the problem without making the area even more dangerous and unstable.<br /> <br /> ==The Run==<br /> The team suits up in their best cheamsealed armor suits and prepare to travel to the specific area of the Rats Nest. Sizzles brings his Crashcart, Ka$hious goes in looking like a million bucks as she is wont to do, feeling secure that her contact Dr. Jude Hanson can treat an early onset CFD infection. Thunder has a special nano-serum coated arrow that ought to disable The Gambian, and Chameleon is going as support.<br /> <br /> They make their way through the toxic hills of refuse and discover the trash-ziggurat. Inside The Gambian sits throned atop a hill of garbage, a living rat king scratching and clawing at the dermal deposits atop his brow.<br /> <br /> Everyone successfully sneaks into place. Thunder readies an arrow strike. Ka$hious starts spending Edge, rolling Etiquette to approach safely, and then Negotiation after Negotiation against the myriad and volatile personalities inside The Gambian. Eventually she exhausts him and he agrees to return for treatment. Sedated and carried back, Dr. Hanson is able to start treatments and feels good about The Gambian’s chances at “recovery”...though what that means exactly, is anyone’s guess. <br /> <br /> ==Aftermath==<br /> Feeling accomplished, the team calls Hassan who is overjoyed. The students will be able to set up their charity project and the New Century Party is going to get fantastic humanitarian coverage at just the right time!<br /> <br /> ==Rewards==<br /> <br /> 10,000 Nuyen (5 RVP) (+2,500 from Negotiations)<br><br /> <br /> 5 Karma (5 RVP)<br><br /> <br /> 12 CDP (6 RVP)<br><br /> <br /> <br /> Optional Contacts: <br /> <br /> Der Opa (Retired Bavarian Runner & Fixer) (Connection 6/Loyalty 1) <br /> (12 CDP COST)<br /> <br /> Dr. Jude Hanson (Nanocyberneticist) (Connection 4/Loyalty 3)<br /> (12 CDP COST)<br /> <br /> Hassan Bahreini (NCP Federal Youth Chair) (Connection 4/Loyalty 1) (FREE FROM NEGOTIATION)<br /> <br /> Note: (Ka$hious may increase her Loyalty for Dr. Hanson from Loyalty 3 to 4 at half cost. Thunder may take Der Opa up to Loyalty 3 from this mission reward.)<br /> <br /> ==Game Quotes==<br /> <br /> {{Gamequote|Amusing quote from game.}}<br /> <br /> ==Player After Action Reports (AARs)==</div>
