>>>>>[Greetings. My organization has recently noticed the return of an
abomination we had hoped long gone. After some doing some research, we also
discovered that the beings presence had been detected--and was being
combatted--by shadowrunners. In the interests of cooperation, we wish to
give those involvoed in the "Widowmaker" affair some valuable information.

This "Widowmaker" (well named), is in reality, a spider shaman initiate of
unknown level, who is possessed by a free Spider spirit. She moves from city
to city, hunting down an individual who is connected with others. When
that person's colleagues respond to the situation, she attacks, killing all
that she can in an orgy of destruction. That is what is occuring now, with
the ensnarement of this Highlander. The ring is her trademark, and a very
powerful talisman, as I'm sure you've discovered. She has given us much
trouble in the past, and we will do anything we can to assist in the
destruction of this threat. If there is anything else we can tell you,
please leave a message on this node, and I will get back to you. May your
efforts be successful.]<<<<<
