Summary: A third eye news team caught some choise action the other day of a
squad putting a seriouse hurting on a group of dark night interceptors. Unfortunatly
before the news crew could get back to the safty of ttheir news van they were
taken out by the BLIND EYE serial killer cognate. The footage recored is excelent.
The Blind eye cognate hates the media, and anything having to do with the media.
Their prefered targets are of course Morts third eye news teams. They also like
to show up for Gore Zones to take on All comers. It is possible to talk them
into giving up the data slug after all they don't really have any use for it.
Or the players could kill them, it depends on how they are feeling.
When the players call in for more detail they will learn that the elimination of the cognate is not the prefered course of action because there is already a more media, established squad schedualed to take them out on next week's serial killer hunter spot. The reason this BPN is being issued is because we need that Data slug asap. For every serial killer that you kill an amount will be deducted from the actual BPN award. Should you fall into the negatives you will be fined.
The Blind Eye cognate is fairly well known and most contacts that live in the down town area can either point out where they are located or knows some one who knows where to find them. An especialy good contact might also know the only fense that is willing to buy stuff from them so that he may sell it to whom ever wants some slightly used camera equipment.
The Blind Eye cognate live in an area between cannibal sector 1 and lower down town. This area seems to attract a lot of news crews following ops around into the cannibal secotors and the surrounding area. The fense is also located in this area. The players really have two courses of action, one they can go to the fense and lie in ambush for them there, or they can attempt to find their lair, which is in an abandond factory and take them out there.
The Factory: This used to be a chemical factory of some sort owned by Karma.
At nearly every junction of materinery and holding tanks there is a grate of
some sort that leads down into a lower level. You hear a great` deal of rustleing
and movement going on in the numerouse shadows but it is hard for you to make
anything out clearly. In the center of the facotry there is a single light on,
under stands a figgure swabbed head to toe in robes.
"Why have you entered the inner sanctum of the Blind Eye Cognate?"
If the players explain themselves and are moderatly polite then they might have
a chance at avoiding the ambush. If not well then they might have a chance at
ending the dialouge before the ambush is fully in place. Basicly what is happening
that under the cover of darkness the serial killers will start to creep forwards
and surround the players. They will go for any gun wielders and Ebb users first.
After that they will work on takeing out the rest of the squad because that
is just the way things go. Their tactics will be very much a hit and run sort
of thing. The one with the robes is the leader as well as the one with the Data
Slug. That much can be gathered from their initial conversation.
After a few rounds of combat, you notice that a couple of the serial killers disapear then come back fully heald, they start using this leap frogging tactic to great effect. After one falls or is knocked out you hear a creaking of a hatch being opened and a buntch of carrion fill the area. By the time the players butcher them the serial killers have made their escape. If they have the data slug by this point then the BPN is relatively over. If not then they have to go after the serial killers, a tracking roll will show that during the carnage they have taken to the streets.
Their path seems pretty clear judgeing by the trail of the dead that they are leaveing behind them. You see that they are making a break for cannibal sector 1. You know that once they get there tracking them would be nearly impossible without help from the locals. Throw some bad shit their way untill they finnaly get who they are looking for. Then call it a night. This is one of thouse slightly easy yet hard combat BPN's sorry.
Stats for the blind eye cognate will be made up when it is actually time to
do so.
