>>>>>[If you are reading this, I am dead.

Considering the line o' business I'm in, I doubt it was a fraggin
heart attack or a stroke. I never expected to live for ever, but
Frag this, I want vengeance!

For the last few years, I've been saving up for a Leonization
process. I now have quite a stash accumulated. Recently it occurred
to me what a bitch it'd be if I got offed before I got myself
'Leonized'

It was then I decided I would invest in a little post-mortem insurance,
to make sure all the dosh didn't go to waste. I don't have any heirs, and
being a good Christian, I'm rather fond of the good ol' eye for an eye.

So I negotiated this little gimmick with the fellas at the Nexus. If I
am killed, this message will be broadcast on all the Shadowland servers
accross north America (An' a few outside).

So here it is: A job offer. Find the Bastards who offed me and string 'em
up to die. If you're interested and not afraid of Wetwork, contact
>>LTG<<, the person who'll answer is the executor of my will. You can
negotiate
with him the payment. Just to give you an idea, we're talking 50 K upwards,
depending on your resume and the kind of objective. It's not as if
I'm gonna need the money any more.

so that's it. May the lord have mercy upon my soul.
*grin*

-Temporary attach-

I've recently gotten on the wrong side of a mage guy called Teutone Bleu
an' his Ally Brimstone. I don't expect them to find me, but if they do,
and you're reading this, that means that the Fraggers are in for a
load o' grief.

If they're responsible for me being dead, I want them triple fragged:

250K for the capture of Teutone Bleu. I want him delivered to >>address<<
where a Doc friend o' mine'll have him implanted with so much 3rd grade
cyberware he won't be able to cast a spell in his fraggin life.(At least
for the few months he'll be able to survive without arms an legs an' connected
to a life support machine)

250K for the Mage or Shaman who can discover Brimstone's true name and
publish it on the Matrix.

Prices negotiable. He-he. Ain't vengeance wonderful?

But I'll still be Fraggin dead. Frag. Frag. Frag.]<<<<<

"Revenge is a dish that is best served cold." ...like from a meat locker.
A great, twisted mind and a big bank account...boy, I'm sorry I didn't
get to know this guy better while he was still breathing. Oh well, I
can still work for him once.... <gryn>]<<<<<

>>>>>[It's like this, I can't account for Flame-Head(Brimstone) because for
an allied spirit he acts much like a free-spirit. But I'd like to a lil'
something for 2tone, he had nothing todo with Mr. M's demise. this was a
little something that I myself say he bought upon himself he was warned away
from fraggin' with Brimstone, but no he had to keep fraggin' about. basicaly
if any of you self appointed honor-bound avengers come acallin' and attempt
to hurt someone that had nothing to with the slottin' son-ova-slitch
Markanspensa getting dead, well I've got acouple of fireballs to ram down
your self-rightious Throats. I figure 2tone can handle himslef but I'm tired
of the ways tyhings are done here in this broken shell of what amerika used
to be. Back in the league you didn't know a shadowrunner from a hole in the
wall, here you guys might as well wear a big sign on your sleek black padded
coveralls.]<<<<<

don't I have something cool like that? I mean, sure I've got a ton
of dirt that'll be public domain when I kick off, but I don't have
any post-mortem contract negotiations planned.

Damn, I'm gonna hafta get me one of them.......]<<<<<
