Before any of us post anything regarding the run, I'll post a series of
messages from Aztech Security, forwarded by Silicon Saboteur just for yucks.
The messages will be in regards to "intruders in the complex" etc etc,
and will follow our run. Then, when I give everyone the go-ahead in plot-d,
we can tell the story in our own character's words, embellishing where we
see fit. The basic story will be this:
Morgue sneaks into the complex alone. He screws up the outside cameras and
alarms, so that it's safe for us to enter. The rest of us enter
through a maintenance entrance in the back, and Morgue will redirect the
input of the cameras through a remote control device that he has. We all
slip into the Aztech uniforms that Jacamus supplied to us. Morgue and
Jacamus make a break for the main security office, where they
run into a guard detachment taking a coffee break. A gunfight ensues,
resulting in the deaths of the guards (maybe 5 or so), and if one of you
doesn't object, the wounding of either Morgue or Jacamus. (nothing too
bad... hit in the arm perhaps?) Speak to me if you want to take the part
:) As Morgue and Jacamus take over the security office, shutting down alarms
and cameras on the route to Gallagher's apartment, one of the guards who
actually ISN'T dead, but was just heavily wounded, manages to reach a
comm console (unbeknownst to them), and warns his superior officer of the
security office's takeover. As there is no way to trigger a building-wide
alarm (J and M have control over the office), the Aztech counter-defense
squad is hastily assembled.
In the meantime, Vilya and Warlock have reached Gallagher's apartment.
After dispatching a few guards outside the door, V and W enter, to find
Gallagher waiting for them (he heard the noise of a fight outside).
Warlock casts a Hellblast spell at Gallagher, blasting the entire outside
wall behind Gallagher into ashes, but not hurting Gallagher, who had an
Elemental protecting him. Gallagher laughs maniacally, and informs Warlock
that the spells of a novice won't hurt him. He then sits on the ground,
closes his eyes, and collapses.
Warlock and Vilya realize that he's slipped into Astral Space to try and
attack them, so they follow suit, and project themselves Astrally. An
epic battle ensues, with Vilya and Warlock fighting off Gallagher's
astrally-animated spells. After sustaining many hits, Warlock "charges"
Gallagher in astral space, and drives his sword-focus through Gallagher's
stomach. Gallagher collapses, and stares blankly at Warlock. Warlock
asks who had hired him to kill Felinius. Gallagher mutters "Hirisoto",
and then dies.
Meanwhile, M and J have intercepted the lone guard's transmission, and
shut down all security measures. Trying to contact Vilya and Warlock
that "the gig is up" works to no avail (they're in Astral Space.) Trying
to escape before the security force blocks off all exits, they leave the
same way that everyone entered, planting explosives as they go.
Vilya and Warlock leave Gallagher's apartment, and expect to leave
without any entanglements. Unfortunately on the way out, the two
run into a security force. As both are drained from their ordeal in
Astral Space, Warlock tries to fight off the heavily armed guards
with a single pistol, and Vilya uses it's remaining spell energies
to cast protective spells around them. It's then that Warlock notices
one of the explosives that Morgue and Jacamus planted on the walls.
Realizing that they're well protected by Vilya's spells, Warlock
casts Magic Fingers at the control pad of the explosive's timer, and
sets the explosives to go off immediately. The security force is
decimated, and Vilya and Warlock manage to escape.
Sound ok to everyone?!?
