I am searching for information on three people. My access toi the usual

spend the time for an extensive search. The people i need data about are:

* Ms. Johnston, from all i know a fixer of sorts. How trustworthy is she (?),
how good usable for shadow work are her contacts? And how much does she
normally charge for her services?

* Skull Bearer. This seems to be a shadowrunner. Data needed: Normal jobs
done, price rating, trustworthiness, maybe usual customers.

* Nomad. Most probably a shadowrunner. Same as with Skull Bearer.

I believe I can help you find what you require. Though I must say, there

this does not fall within my constraints as librarian; thus, the information
you seek, while already distributed to another, is still currently available
here.

+++++download: Cass_hit.cmp

To introduce you to the players, it is my belief that a recent addition to
the Seattle shadows, a Skull Bearer ... is likely responsible for the attack
on the woman you identified. He, almost assuredly, was in the employ of one
Ms. Johnston to dissuade Cassandra from investigating ... something. From
the chronology I have compiled, I think that this Skull Bearer has
encountered Cassandra twice and travelled to Winnipeg for reasons unknown
over the last three weeks.

Furthermore, I believe a recently developed urban myth -- one that does
not concern giant alligators living in our sewers -- may be of potential use
to you.

A gang of young people in the Puyallup Barrens was recently eliminated EN
TOTO by what eyewitnesses describe as a "living shadow" ... a friend of
Cassandra's, one Dirk Edgewood, had encountered a similar personage and
was troubled enough by the encounter to be muttering about it a whole week
later.

There are too many coincidences here to be discounted without investigation.
I take it ... you are interested in the role of investigator?

Regardless of that, you requested ... "What Happened" Cassandra was attacked
by this Skull Bearer ... "Who was It?" probably the Skull Bearer ...
"Additional info" Skull Bearer's possible residence and probable
employer.

Please forward the compensation for my efforts at your earliest convenience.
It has been a pleasure doing business with you.]<<<<<

so far. From the reputation I had heard attached to you, I would have
assumed you would have already handed me the listed names and addresses of
the faces in your images and what connection they may have to their matrix
access points, but I do suppose that may take you additional time.... If
anything, your data opens certain avenues of inquiry that had previously
not existed. And seeing as I prefer payment upon completion of services
for the facts that it allows funds to be spread out and separately routed
as well as being commisserate with the deed, if the above transfer is
insufficient for the time and expense you have expended on the inquiry, I
assure you that there is more available for more substantial information.

Be aware that I come to you because you have been reputed to have
considerable access to information not available through the public
domain, and that you are discrete. That is why I have hired you.

As to you final question, I believe it was just after I uttered the words:

In any case, discretion is a service which may be inquired after further.

To this point, you have received an initial unconfirmed photo of your

recorded movements of your subjects in this area, the compiled addresses
of the places your subjects have visited for longer periods of time. Lastly,
and most valuably, I enclosed the ownership profile on the places mentioned

heard reports of some form of linkage to a separate Smartlink system to
coordinate indirect fire or shots into obfuscated areas, at which point
your friend would need a similarly equipped "spotter." But as far as I
know such a device has yet to be perfected. A mix of data overflow or
confusion/"expanded consciousness" problems, or so I've heard.

How would your friend's new cyber know say, the position of his hand so

(no ricochets) at a target seen only in a mirror, I see how it might be
done.

Get the relative positions and directions between eyes, gun, and mirror; a
smartlink and rangefinder should provide this.

The tricky bits: figure out the angle of the mirror to your line of sight
and the apparent distance to the image of the target seen in the mirror. The
right sensors in your hands might allow you to calculate the first for a
handheld mirror. An active laser rangefinding system in the eyes would do
the second, maybe the first. Or you could do image recognition on the
target, guess at its real size and calculate distance and angle from the
image size and angle.

Once you know all that, it's just simple optics (angle of incidence = angle
of reflection) and trigonometry to calculate where to point the gun.

I presume this capability is a side effect of whatever other stuff he has
installed; it's a ridiculous amount of effort just to do trick shots with a
mirror.]<<<<<

As for some work, I have a few friends that are going to be playing at "2

asthetically challenged people (I gather your an elf like me right?).
Well, if you are at all good at seeing auras, they have been having some
trouble recently with some magical pranks and a little worse (but not much
more). What they are looking for are a few good looking magical watchers.
Some one just to be there and look around while not attracting too much
attention. They are looking at around 400Y a night for just some easy
casing.

The big bonus to this is getting to listen to "Azure Lightening" live, and
getting paid for an easy job and all the while letting yourself be seen and
talked about.

security of my clinic is my top priority. Having Lynch recommend you

Yes, We have an aggreement.

Sys-Idented? Unmasked? using a matrix-based wepon? That doesn't sound
too smart. Given the ident, I could make a self-replicating phage
frame to simply search and destroy anything with that ident. All I
need is the ident.

We don't need any money... Haviing a free spirit hanging around the
place is somewhat useful... But just try getting it to answer any
questions.

You wouldn't, by any chance, have a few Yamaha Pulsars lying around,
would you? We need a few replacements. (about 4, and a modest supply
of ammo plus that qusetion, would, according to my calculations, be
more than adequate recompensation for the job, while being under your

Message no. 113 *****PRIVATE: Noid
>>>>>[Very well. My courier shall deliver your material requests after you
have completed the mission.

For initial payment, the answer to your question. The circumstance you
describe is unusual, but not unheard of. I recall particular instances
where a host body suffers from either schizophrenia or MPD and has a some
latent or achieved magical talent, making the possession by the spirit
inconsistent.

However, much depends on the power of the spirit. The weaker the spirit
the more inconsistent the possession.

Only in circumstances where the host was psychologically unstable, have I
seen hosts battle possession unknowingly.

I believe this should answer your question.

Though it may sound strange, the method I described is the method being used
by the individual I seek. He is rather desperate. It is more than likely that
, if he succeeds, he will take his own life shortly thereafter. However, this
latter matter is none of our concern, I simply wish to protect the life
of my associate.

The individual you seek is Mick de Lampalago. He was formerly a computer
technician at Smith-Norton Anti-Virus here in Seattle. He was fired for
using corporate materials for his own private use -- namely a cyberdeck.
He developed his attack program there and intends to use it to erase all
traces of my associate's existence through the Matrix. In my associate's
line of work, this would result in her likely termination within a space
of 36 hours. I believe Lampalago was last seen in Puyallup. For full payment,
I must know his location and his ability to access the Matrix effectively
must be destroyed.
