Summary
Blackstone's Circus of the Paranormal had a train derailed with some contraband on board that had gotten loose into Snohomish. They hired a runner crew to work things out quickly and quietly before the Pawn's investigator realized there was more going on than just a wreck when the manifests went bad. The team made a fun night of grabbing critters all over Snohomish and Everett.
Background
Blackstone's has doubled as a Para critter smuggling ring for decades and this time they got their comeuppance as an eco-terrorist group rigged a train wreck as the delivery of official and unofficial goods were getting dropped at an agricultural station in Snohomish.
The Meet
Miss Hattie meets everyone at Purgatory in Snohomish, leaving invites at the door. One of the bouncers surprisingly beats Oberrons mask, unnerving him. The team doesn't negotiation Hattie down much but does get her to open up the telesma library and come off a bonus she was stiffing them on. Oberron identified a vampire poser and may have made a date to come back later.
The Plan
Track the tags, astral confirm, and head to the different locations the critters have made it in the allotted time.
The Run
The team had 4 targets to collect in about 6.5 hours, with a drop off timer for each one. The clients absolutely did not want the run going past dawn the following morning.
The first target was a lightly wounded horned bear that had made its way into a large drainage culvert behind a Snohomish shopping plaza. The team found the critter and tried to drive casual but was noticed by parking lot security. As Oberon and Koi sneak down to handle the bear, the private security swings around and shines lights on Obsidian and Joule. Incredibly strong willed basic human security really isn't feeling it, and is even dubious about a rather large bribe. Finally the team breaks and shows the horned bear to the two guards, who happily accept the bribe going forward. Oberon takes point with some bear food and a borrowed horned bear hauling van and ushers the critter right in. Joule narrowly avoids an unlucky bump that would have put her in the back of a van with an angry bear. Dropped off, grand total 1 hour 15 minutes.
