Our first BPN. Part 1

January 16th 899:
Slayers Crib – 5 in the morning. No one is late – amazing – not even the Brainwaster.… we’re looking at 2 hours waiting just to get in *sigh*. We decided to go for 3rd Eye News Hall instead. Tons of people there too but we gave it a try anyway. We also discovered how they keep people in line there. Any aggressive behaviour is stopped on the spot by heavily armed guards and automatic weaponsystems – one warning and then it’s out – for good! Hope that guy over there has LAD :)
After waiting.. and waiting… and waiting… we finally got our blue BPN. YAY! An open BPN in suburbia – 50C a day for the team. Apparantly an easy assignment…
We reported to Sgt Winthers (chief of the sector) in 317 suburbia and he informed us of our assignment. A factory is celebraiting their anniversary so there might be sometrouble in the area. Wheelarc (another operative team) is in sector 320 – so if we get in over our heads they’re ready to jump in. We’re just supposed to show ourselves and try to keep everybody in line.
We had a brief talk in the team and decided to go look at the factory. It’s a kind of creepy place, strangely unreal… We walked down the street to get an impression of the area, but suddenly Blue was hit in the shoulder by a light weapon – huh?
It was easy to figure out where the gunshot came from and I ran for the building with G’rr Ch’ld right behind me.
Sean showed off and folded into the building and we didn’t hear from him untill I asked for status from the team. What he said didn’t make much sense (glowing thing with 8 arms and tentacles?!!) but it was good to hear that he hadn’t been off’ed – yet!. Blue and G’rr Ch’ld ran past me seconds ago and soon I heard serious loud noise from upstairs. Damn I hate my short legs – it felt like running in slow motion compared to the rest... I dived into the hall – tried to adjust my sight – aim… Blue and G’rr are in my way – damn closecombat guys…
I spot their opponent down the hall WTF!? What is that thing? … I browse my brain for knowledge of shiny things with tentacles – dam it -Tek Trex! The drone totally rips G’rr apart and Blue moves in to take some of the heat. Sean is nowhere to be seen and I wonder if the thing has thrown him out of the window.
Suddenly the thing shuts down with a rather strange sound and we manage to panic because none of us is sure what it does. So the team runs for the door except me – I’m still going through my library of Tek Trex knowledge and calling in shivers. So I wait at the end of the hall keeping an eye on the drone. Out of nowhere a Tek Trex doctor shows up, grabs the drone and start walking away. I shoot him with little effect and then he just walks away. I call the team and all of them run up the stairs again – I already love my job! As they arrive we follow the doctor through hallways and rooms – and then he’s gone. Sean and G’rr run to the roof and we run downstairs.
After a few minutes the shivers arrives and we call in some airsupport but the doctor is gone. Sean tells about he’s insane stunt where he jumped out the window to hide from the doctor and then folded to somewhere 6 feet of the ground – crazy Brainwaster!
We have no luck finding the Doc so after several hours of searching we let the shivers do the rest and head home to get some sleep.

hehe... Interesting :D
Dumped in at the deep end straight away... very nice.
I do have some questions (yeah I know, Pesky Bloggers wanting to know stuff they're not entitled to :P)
[sort of quote]Any aggressive behaviour is stopped on the spot by heavily armed guards and automatic weaponsystems – one warning and then it’s out – for good! Hope that guy over there has LAD :)[End sort of quote] Opinion.. mine..
Personally, I would have used Dark Finders.. they're scarey, they don't trust anyone and who in their right mind is going to pick a fight with one?
[sort of quote]I spot their opponent down the hall WTF!? What is that thing? … I browse my brain for knowledge of shiny things with tentacles – dam it -Tek Trex![End sort of quote] I think your GM would have to answer this one... I would "assume" the drone was one of his inventions?

And it sounds like a cyborg of sorts.. Is that right?
Don't you just hate me even more already? LOL
At least you know I'm actually paying attention :D
Keep up the good work

ok I'll answer all your pesky questions ;)
1: there were Dark Finder in the BPN hall but not that many and we really thought the automated weapons systems were cool. So that's why I mentioned them.
2: the drone is very much a GM invention. One of the things I really love about our GM is his ability to always surprise. No matter how much of a munchkin you are you never know what kind of weird stuff he throws at you 'cause most of it is in his head O_o
3: well i actually don't know cause we never caught him. The GM hinted that the doctor was armored but then again - our GM says a lot of stuff that isn't true... :)
But we did find out that the drone was a prototype sentury-drone just out for a testrun.

As I've said before I like your comments because they make me think more about what I post - so Thank You! for all you comments and silly question :D

Whooohooo! That leaves me for the tottaly useless posts to spam your blog with. :)

And our GM keeps doing the same thing, make everything different from the standard rules (which I know by heart and my GM realises that...the bastard!). Keeps me edgy and paranoid at all times.

Like this one. Need More!
