Summary

The runners are hired by agent of the DGSE to bug the house of an active terrorist. Might be true but the reality is more complex

The Meet

Runners are call by their respective fixers and are hang about a meeting taking place is a bar of Downtown call The Old Reliable. All runners make it their but Surtr get her poor Fake SIN burn at the crossing between Snohomish and downtown.

They met with a man with a little french accent and two bodyguard, the job is simple, they provide little camera and microphone and want the team to bug the target appartment. Pay is 20k nuyens and the runners accept after negotiating a new fake SIN for Surtr arguing that their job require good fake ID.

The Run

First Chipset checked the matrix about the locator of the appartement and found out about Jennifer Wallace an UCAS resident supposedly out of the army and doing mercenary work. They also figured out she might have a pet, the rest of the team quickly get to the apparment. Once at the place Chipset try to hack into the host get blown up by a data-bomb and later struggle against the encryption of the file that give the code for each maglock. During those matrix Shenanigan, Hell Hound in dog form manage to sneak past the guard at the entrance of the block pretending to be one of the inhabitant talk by walking alongside him. Once inside he get to the proper floor and found out that Jennifer's door has additionnal security aside from the regular passkey. (a keypad and a lock.)

Once Hell Hound is back and Chipset got a copy of the access for the maglock, the team decide to sneak in, with the help of Surtr spell and Air Spirit friend, Hell Hound and Denarii enter the place unnotice while Chipset loop the camera on the way there, they quickly reach the appartment door open it and make sure to cover their trace and enter the fancy appartment. Once inside through image link Chipset recognise some of the art piece on the wall being the property of a runners of the Haven, Shy. Denarii and Hell Hound meanwhile procede to bug the appartment and carefully avoid the Fenrir Wolf that Shy hold, and who nearly smelled Hell Hound when he entered the appartment. Hell Hound also manage to reach a safe in the room in which Archaeon is asleep, opened it and found a lot of file related to the N-51 operation, he make picture of them and decide to leave ASAP.

The heist was done in the pure shadowrun fashion and no trace was left.


Aftermath

The team returned to the Old Reliable the next day at the same hours, the J's was very pleased by the diligent work and asked if the runners found any additionnal intel. At first the team try to covered it up but Hell Hound blatantly admitted the presence of a safe and document. In exchange of 6k nuyens the team decide to give those information.

The J's gave payment and contact to be provided new fake SIN that did all in the end came from the French Government. The job was done, clean without a miss in the plan.

Player After Action Reports (AARs)

Entered the house hearing a massive wolf, bugged and tapped the residence with aid of Denarii and Surtr, solid folks who's assistance was paramount. Chipset was awesome don't know what they did exactly but crucial. Fragged up with the J a super suspicious person.

Denarii: "Not sure how I'm feeling about that one. Looks like our mark was some kind of friendly face down in Sophocles, so I'm a little regretful knocking the folks down there, but that's not my business anymore. Huh, when was I last in Sophocles, anyway...?"

Surtr: "Easy enough. Perhaps a little bit quiet, but blackops work that ends up quiet usually is a good day. Someone said the mark was another runner? Well, you know what they say; every friend is one bad payment away from being your enemy."
