Summary
In which shadowy group from the NEEC employs runners to kidnap a seemingly average Joe from a DNA Sample
Background
Following a successful first contact with shadow haven's services, Mme Valérie Dehall comes back to the collective when she finds herself needing a person with a specific DNA sequence. Cursory legwork got her information about how a good candidate was living around the Seattle area, specifically Redmond, and she then settled of gathering a team of shadow-runners to find the person and deliver him to her team.
The Meet
On a Sunday evening/night, our protagonists of the day are getting tips from their respective network of Fixers during their nightly activities. Frank was passing time watching cheesy trids, Magnum repaired his damaged roof and was enrolled into helping the whole community, Gigabyte tried yet again to get into jackpoint (without success but points for effort), Barracuda was trying to set up his lodge (read : magical armory) and finally Prince enjoyed some clubbing. they were interrupted by various vectors but all passing the same message : A job was availible for our runners and if they were interested, a matrix meet was to happen the next morning.
Our protagonists will wake and be in the host at the given hour. They rezz in a pastel-colored world made of primitive shapes arranged as a dome around and over their avatars, and an avatar made of smaller, more intricate shapes and more saturated colors presents itself. She will shake the hands on the Personnas that accept it and seem to appreciate characters that goes to the length of being somewhat polite and personnable.
She gives them the run down of the run : the team has to find a man in Redmond from a single lead : a DNA sample. The team pushes for more information about the person in question and the avatar cannot answer, clearly not knowing anything more about the subject. They then pivot to asking why this is a nescessity to them, what that person has that they need and what they will do with him, to which the avatar responds at first with hesitation, and them when pushed over the ledge, goes into a passionate rant about how this man's DNA make him special, how he might revolutionize a whole domain and how they would give him such a better life than what he has in the Redmond barrens.
After a good amount of deliberation, the team decides to accept and then maybe reevaluate is the circumstances lead to that. They will have a short negotiation resulting on a pay of 16K each, after which they receive coordinates at which they will be given the DNA sample, in addition a commcode to call up the J in case of problems and a location to operate the drop off once the job is complete. on that, the J and character go their separate ways and the runners derezz from the pastel-colored host
The Plan
As soon as the characters derezz, they set up a DNI room and decide to meet at the delivery point for the DNA sample. Once they are on site, a man will get out of a nearby conspicuously classy limousine clothed in a sleeping tiger suit and bearing a pin on it, that the team took a picture of. The man approach the group of runners with a suitcase, give it to them and succinctly turn heels to go back in the limousine. They examine the contents of the suitcase and find a small vial of a transparent liquid in addition to a data-chip containing the textual code of the DNA sample. On that, they make their way to Magnum's trailer yard to further do some legwork.
Magnum's neighbors are curious about the singular group, but leave them to their activities as Gigabyte drops in VR and makes a R6 search with the DNA sample, that will take one hour to yield tangible results. In the meantime, the rest of the team searches for info about the pin they took a photo of on the man in black that gave them the DNA sample, and find really little information about it outside that it apparently was the logo of a small art club in the French university de Fontainebleau long ago (in ~2060) called "les rêves pastels"
Gigabyte's search returns then that the DNA was matched in files that leaked from a local hospital, in a dossier of a man named "Rachid Snell". The dossier mentions a number of sicknesses and disorders, one of which is an admission due to emotional burnout syndrome resulting from excessive BTL use. It is written however that he was let go due to a lack of finances for his recovery program.
