Butts is going to attempt a con on these Trolls. He'll try to convince them that he is an investor and is buying local businesses. The clothing/car will be explained away via a rival investor giving him bad advice on purpose. He'll also bring to the table an incentive for the Spikes that are currently threatening him. Right after Butts goes to this business meeting to purchase a local hot spot, he'll need to get in contact with the Spikes financial manager to work a deal for protection of his new businesses. Throughout the entire conversation he'll use large terminology like wraparound anuity, fund accounting, fiat FFS, term maturity, etc. Butts will also make sure that these two gangers are given hefty bonuses for their good deed. As for credentials, he'll produce a fake SIN and talk about the other building he "owns", especially in the downtown area. I'll modify this post when I get home and make the actual rolls while I'm not at work. Haha! I was able to roll this on my driod on my way home from work! I love technology! |

The Spikes will resist with Charisma + Negotiation. They are defaulting and lose 2 dice. Cha 2 + Negotiation 0 = 2 - 2 = 0 = minimum check of 1. Spikes gangers attempt to keep up with Butts' fast moving, high rolling (pun!) Con. (1d6.hits(5)=1)One hit. Your roll shifts them from Hostile (-3) six steps towards friendly, stopping somewhere around 'Confused as hell'. One of the two Spikes will fake knowing what he is talking about, trying to save a little face. Really, they are just confused as hell and are really interested in getting paid. Note your half of the story IC (the con itself) and I'll follow up with what the Spikes have to say about it as per these rolls. |

Once Clint and Butts finish up their complications, we can proceed to the meet itself.
We still have a few slots for players available as our current roster is only 4: Clint, Butts, Arc and Sterling. I can take up to maybe five total PCs. Maybe six.
If you have a character not currently Active in the Droid Rage! run and would like to have them involved, feel free to post here.

He pops some Psyche and sits, soaking up all the details about this place that he can possibly intake. The little things always calms his mind. Bruiser, When you post these kinds of things in the IC forum, you can generally go ahead and post in the OOC forum (or spoiler in your IC post) a Perception roll. If there is any important resolution, your pre-posted roll lets us just skip right to the part where I tell you what is important. Secondly, when you post something like 'pops some Psyche', it is good to note in a spoiler or OOC post what the effects of the drug are. Basically, the word is this: when you do something that has a mechanical resolution that is easy to follow - rolling perception, taking drugs, making data search checks etc. - you can just pre-roll and if there needs to be a mod to the check, I can always let you know. |

Vindictive Composure check for Clint.
Base threshold of 2 + 1 for damage to his ride and attacking him openly. Charisma + Willpower.
8d6.hits(5) → [2,2,3,5,3,5,4,6] = (3)
Vindictive quality forces a Composure (3) for Clint.
Clint sure ain't happy, but he doesn't need to settle the score.

Sterling will note the general tenor of the bar: He is not wanted. People have taken notice of his more... privileged bearing and, of course, his pointy ears.
He will hear a few derogatory comments said under the breath of patrons and some staff.
Finally, he will note a broad shouldered, vaguely square man in a loudly fashioned suit headed for a doorway and looking like he descends a stairway. Beside the door is an imposing ork doing his best to look like he belongs there but failing to not scream 'security'. Putting garish suits and security together given the low-key location and the expensive rides mixing in with the blue collar burro-carts, Sterling thinks one thing: 'la mafia'.
After aproaching the hostess, he will be shown down to the back room only after being asked to pay a consultation fee of fifty nuyen. Sterling may negotiate this fee at a -2 DP penalty (prejudice). Please note any activity related to this in the IC thread.
He will enter the meet after a post by Clint and / or Butts. I will let you know by signaling IC or OOC that Sterling makes his entrance.
Social checks with the Johnson are at a -2 DP penalty for lateness and a -1 DP penalty as a result of being off your game due to the blatant prejudice. An Ettiquette (2) check can be made with net hits reducing the penalties.
We will go ahead and use this:
3 hits gives you 1 net hit, reducing total penalties to -2 DP.
Another check may be made once face to face with the Johnson.

Waitress resists with Cha (3) + Negotiation 3 + 3 (discounts may cause her problems) = 9 dice
9d6.hits(5) → [1,4,2,4,2,5,4,2,4] = (1)
Lazy Axel waitress negotiates with Sterling about bringing drinks to the meet at a discount.
Sterling wins the negotiation by 1 hit. The waitress is willing to do one or the other - bring drinks OR provide a discount.
Drinks run 10 nuyen per person per single, top shelf is 15 nuyen per single per person.
Note IC your half of the negotiation and she will respond accordingly.

Butts can clearly discern that these are indeed security drones. He can recognize their militarized hardpoints, heavy-duty actuators and armored plating, even if he does not know their technical specs or names.
Each drone has at least one weapons hardpoint. The aerial drone appears to have vectored thrust, the crawler has a complex series of antennas and domes mounted across the abdomen and the humanoid walker has fully manipulative hands rather than primitive claws or 'manipulators'.

All J-Meet mosts must be complete by no later than Sunday (8-29-10). If we do not wrap it up by then, I will wrap it up and we will move on to legwork scenes.
I will note that negotiations failed to produce any net hits to increase pay. Decrypt for the datadisc will be provided and can be written into any IC post by any member of the team. I will let you know the contents when I see the decrypt actions being taken. In short, they provide some information to help you begin your searches: stuff like access codes, better pictures and a cheat sheet style tech readout, some information related to their last known positions etc.
Arc has left things open for some quick introductions.
Might be a great place to let you guys air out your characters a bit. What do they look like, sound like, wear etc. How would they introduce themselves? Do they trust anyone here? Do they naturally like any particular kind of person / meta race? Stuff like that.
Let's get this scene wrapped up soon so that we can move off into the actual meat of the run.

What happens next is entirely up to the PCs.
