Summary

Total time: 6 hrs 10/11: 6 hrs 10/14: Pending

Background

"This is a tough one, and a higher rate of pay than I usually kick out. Clean job, but a rough one. I'll have details at the meet, but this one is definitely going under the waves to a CAS Facility.." -Vic

The Meet

The team arrives at the meet, the Barn Burner in Auburn which is a Suiox Nation style restaurent for people who like real food. The team meets Vic in the back room and goes over the job. He explains how the CAS has a vault system which acts as a techno-jail or a storehouse. The goal is to have some biotech stolen from the vault, which is located underwater. Used for storing difficult or "must be kept unconscious" cybercriminals.

Vic has some fake IDs for us to get in and out as technicians, one guard, and one prisoner (Narukami). Our goal is to sneak in, break out a security animal - a warform chimera - and then get back out. It is a prototype security alligator.

Transit is handled through a regular cycle of acquatic vehicles. Payment is agreed upon as:

• 20K Payout.
• 5K Up Front.
• Additional 2K Up front Bonus.
• Free meat and veg meal.
• PCs need to get to Richmond, VA, CAS. Vic can assist but not out of pocket.
• If Doc Vega does not show there's 7K floating.
• R6 Burner SINS for everyone: 1 Driver (NPC), Techs (3), Prisoner (1), Guard (1)

Info from Infobrokers via Chameleon:

• Gemstone Security: A Rated Corporation.
• Gemstone is almost entirely composed of former CAS Special Forces, and is clearly a pipeline to black/covert operations.
• They have 22 Guards on site, 4 per floor in a staggered shift. So 4-5 active per floor with the rest sleeping in bunks on the bottom level.
• They get swapped out en masse once monthly.
• Submarine Schedule heading out from Richmond this month has an arrival 1 day before your sub (the decker) and the next 2 days after (The R&D Director leaving)
• Grunt swap will be in about 7 days from our job day.
• Floorplans, turret locations, and camera locations
• Maglocks and physical locks

Heading to the Warehouse: Cybertech Convention Site

The team meets up with "Twitchy" our local contact and driver. He has clearly earned his name given the team catches that he's more than a little strung out. Twitchy sets up our disguises and information while Itsy goes and hunts the other decker to bully him around a bit.

We're able to get the files from the security spider due to Itsy, which includes all the maps and security layouts for the underwater base. We also have documents to edit and forge for transfer paperwork for the gator.
