Another interesting idea, but my mages/shamanes are very carefull
with their meat-bodies while they're in astral space, like finding
someone to look after it. And they don't tend to stay long in Astral
space.
My idea goes in another direction:
kidnapping a rich's man brat the astral way, 'cause meat bodies are
so easy to find for a man with real money (watcher, rituales, etc.).
Dad can see his brat's body and can see everything the kidnapper
does to him, like hurting him whatever.
The Player in my group are a (really good) decker and a high
initated owl-shamane. So, I hoped to make it two ways:
1. Decking information = search for background information
2. Astral Quest = find the astral body
This way I got everybody occupied.
