Summary
A rogue mage has lost his mind, and seeks to cleanse the world in nuclear fire as he tumbles into toxic magic head over heels.
Background
Not long after a public service announcement that a forest fire is burning, a few runners get calls from worried fixers, all with the same news: They have a job, it's related to the fires, and their Johnson is an Ancient. Not an auspicious start, and what background information they have indicates pretty clearly that they're going to be going into it.
What's worse? Well, it's a manastorm.
The Meet
At a prearranged spot in Northern Seattle, the rumble of one motorcycle turns into the roar of forty bikes circling the block and escorting in someone who must be at least a bit important in the organization - not that she talks like it. In her informal vernacular, Johnson runs through the details: after feuding with a newbie ork gang called Ork Explosive Ordinance, a mage that killed several of the go-gang's members in one fireball has disappeared into the woods. Job's simple in concept and complex in practice - figure out where in the woods the guy went, then kill him and whatever loser cronies he took with him. Easier said than done.
The Plan
When the team gathered, they decided that their plan was straightforward: gather help, gather information on where to find Marv, then go get him. While Insight began poring over matrix records, passing over information on the mage's former organization, a gang called Ork Explosive Ordinance.

Game Quotes
Player After Action Reports (AARs)
Marrisa Ah, that was fun. Not a big one, as far as toxics go, but every bit is important. They always think they are safe with their powers, until someone other than some civilian comes along. It was a pleasure to work with Blue Jay again, and Cleaner Cleaner was quite lovely. I didn't get to see the decker, and the spirits they summoned were... unsettling. Almost like drones instead of actual spirits. They were alright still, I suppose. I wonder if the orc EOs would like a picture of Marv? They could say one of their men did it, and use it as an example of what happens for traitors. Maybe I'll ask them later. But for now its off to the laundromat. More paint stains to clean.
