The Meet

The Team arrives in an empty warehouse in Tacoma. There's no J, instead, it's just a meeting table and a hardwired TV. After a moment a smiley face appears on the TV and tasks the runners to steal an object from a save deposit box of the Citizens Mutual bank in Downtown. The payment will be 20k, so the team accepts the job.

The Plan

6 offers her house as a place for the team to stay, rest, and plan. The Master starts with a matrix search and gets some general info about the bank, for example, their ties to Renraku. He then enters their host where he finds multiple files (Maglogs, Shifts, Alarms) of which he recovers the work shifts. With that information, the team decides that going in after-hours when as few people as possible are there, is their best bet. They still need information about the vault, and after their ideas have run dry Six decides to call up Father Uriel. He can have one of his people pretend to be interested in getting a box, so that she can, as his security consultant, take a tour and look at the vault. During the tour she discovers that opening the vault once it is closed will be near impossible, so they change their plan to an open attack during the day. The Master will deactivate part of the security system. She will rush in, keep the vault open and retrieve the object from the box. And the rest of the team will keep the situation under control and deal with the security on shift. After that Akari will drive away with the object to a save house.

The Run

Master Morty enters the host of the bank when it's go time, and gets spotted by an AI that is currently present there. A quick fight erupts, which he can decide for himself. Then he quickly disables the silent alarm, the exit control system, and the turrets, while fighting off the IC spawned by the host. Then he leaves the Matrix. Six rushes in and can barely keep the door from getting shut, intimidates the bank manager to shit, so he opens the damn deposit box for her. In the meantime, the rest of the team disables the security guards, with Akari sending two of them to the afterlife with a flying kick. Then the team quickly heads out again before the cops can come, first moving to the safehouse and then later dropping the object, which turns out to be an amulet of unknown origin, off for a drone to pick up.

Player After Action Reports (AARs)

Sasha

"On the bright side, I didn't have to do anything. Morty did most of the work just via the matrix. Turns out he's really good at the matrix stuff. On the not-so-bright side, I didn't have to do anything. I was itching for some action the whole day and thought I'd finally get some with this run, but it ended without me getting a single hit in... Six's place was comfy at least."
