Summary
A certain velociraptor hires runners to jack a shipment of cutters cyberware on route to MCT. Pisses of MCT, lets the Cutters take the fall for it and gets him some nice cyberware. Win win? Right? Not if a security decker shows up with murder on the mind.
Background
Dr. Velo has been cybering up his Critter Army for a while now and that ware has gotta come from somewhere. With a bit of digging, he found a bit of a lead. A potential splinter faction within the cutters that's been stockpiling repo'd ware under the radar and planning to sell a nice pile of it to some MCT folks. His dinosaur brain cells connected the dots.
The Meet
After pre-run shenanigans, the runs find themselves outside of a warehouse. The big sliding door cracks open, revealing a warehouse filled with crates of guns and ware and drone bits, a few drones and several suited 'people' walking around. The runners spot a table with chairs on one side and an anthrodrone who opens a call with Dr. Velo.
The Dinosaur forks over some very basic information. There's a lightly guarded cutters warehouse with very light matrix security in the barrens. He wants the runners to head in, get all the ware and head out before MCT shows up to buy the ware in about 5 days. Easy money. After some negotiating for hazard pay and fighting for information, the runners leave mostly satisfied.
The Plan
First things first was getting eyes on the physical security with a bit of flyspy scouting from Strobe. They discovered it was not as lightly guarded as once thought, with many mooks and a cybered up troll standing guard, as well as a suited up wage-mage inside. With physical recon done, Catharsis jumped into hotsim and infiltrated the host, her persona slinky-jumping over the virtual chainlink fence and into the host, where an enormous cyberborg crocodile with a cape and a battleaxe stood, waiting. He spotted her within seconds, barely missing her with a brute force axe swing. She left the host very fast after that.
After a brief discussion and a few days to recuperate, Catharsis went back into the host, geared out for war. She slinkied back over the fence and got ready for a matrix brawl, marking the Cutter Decker right off the bat. Unfortunately, the enemy decker was sick and tired off marks and playing games. He went for a single dataspike and in one fell swoop, cleaved Catharsis's persona in half. The poor decker's brain almost melted and her deck was toast.
