Just so you all know, the actual run will take place after I get back from
Spring Break. This means that you have about a week and a half to do whatever
you feel like before you all start making plans and submitting them to the
"owener" of Pheonix-Star.

Anyone who didn't get the private post I sent out about the dinner, here's the
basics:

Orca is hiring you to retrieve(alive) Wizzard. If you can't do that, you are
to kill him. Secondary target is Masque, alive or dead(either way is fine by
Orca--he gets the body anyway). Pay scale is 50000 up-front, 100000 upon
delivery, and up to an additional 25000 if you can get Masque too. And you get
a "quiet" bonus of 25000 if you can pull it off without bringing down the
entireuniverse on your heads.

You were given several sat. photos of the complex/labs that Wizzard and Masque
are in with which to plan(or help you plan).

This is an involuntary retrieval/assassination.

Security is extreme, but (and I keep forgetting the name...) the guy who runs
Pheonix-Star will keep you up on that.

anyone who hasn't gotten back to me on this needs to. I have, so far,

Caine, Morgue, Jazz, Bloodstryke, The Pagan, and STREETWOLF. Everyone else
needs to tell me if you are still interested.

And the way Orca is setting this up will ensure that Pheonix won't get news
via Shadowland(ie decrypted messages), so if you are still reading this you
wouldn't know it unless you have contacts with the people involved. And Orca
has made it VERY clear that talking to anyone prior to the raid would be very
unhealthy, but only if you said "no."
