<<<[TheBoard Host Node LTG#46912338755] 13th January 2055>>>

Sorry for going AWOL chummer. We had a little 'incident' with a group of wannabe deckers trying to take down TheBoard. Some traces leads back to the recent visit from Super Glory, but rest assured that it won't be fragging up again. Here's a serving of news roundsups from the last few days for your digest.

Interlude - Chapter 2-3

Between Chapters 2 and 3, our team thinks they are going to get some well deserved R&R - but it turns out a little different to start with!

Chapter 2 - GM's Version - Part 3

Tue, 2010-02-02 23:19 — GameMaster

Once the team made it onto the highway Von is hard at work in the back of the car examining the cases recently lifted from the back of the Bulldog van. The approaching Lone Star officers are spotted in the rear-view mirror, but the turn down the ramp to the actual crime scene while the Land Rover blends into the highway traffic.
It is not long for drawing a sigh of relief before the next problem hits the team. Von, having cracked the maglock on one of the six transport casings realises that is holds a tracking signal. Simply getting into the first case was a matter for first carefully removing the security casing around the lock without triggering the anti-tampering devices in the cases, and then a matter of looping the circuitry on the maglock board - all in a a moving car with only a flash light to work with.

Last access	Name	Apperance	Game Status
2010-01-12 06:46	Cecil	A young ork of average height, with features much closer to the human range than most, showing mixed Japanese-Hispanic heritage. He doesn't particularly draw the eye - though he is fit and athletic-looking, he has no visible augmentation. He usually dresses casually, with an eye more for comfort and durability than style. He has a calm, businesslike manner. Likely from Japan, from his accent and mannerisms. Carries a pistol on a belt that looks rather rent-a-cop style. When on the job and pursuing his personal goals, he can look and act very differently. As Cecil, short for Cecil B. DeMille, he affects a deadpan, toughguy swagger, and can be seen in anything from camouflage to flashy club attire.	Active Campaign Play
2010-03-13 09:45	Eddie	Short brown hair, 5 feet 9 inches height. 175 lbs. Blue eyes. Pale skin complexion. medium build. Dressed in a worn biker jacket he wore on his courier runs. Underneath he wears a blue and white 3/4 sleeve shirt. Also wears some straight leg jeans and pair of high top sneakers.	Active Campaign Play
2010-03-13 04:26	Grunge	Grunge is a very short young human with long, unkempt, black hair. His complexion is pale and his face is usually smudged with grease unless he's deliberatly washed it. He can normally be seen wearing a grey mechanic's jumpsuit, also smudged with grease, a pair of black boots, and a black leather jacket.	Active Campaign Play
2010-03-12 23:38	Trip	Shorty Human with slicked back dark brown hair and typically a few days stubble. He has bright piercing blue eyes that suggest a sharp mind. He wears a beige long coat, and a matching broad rimmed hat adorned with a long reddish brown fur tail attached. Underneath he wears a well-worn, but stylish suit in a reddish brown colour that might have looked very sharp not so long ago, but now is dirty and torn in places, but still gives him an air of someone who knows how to dress.	Active Campaign Play
2010-03-13 01:24	Von	Von is a male elf. He has long straight black hair, past his shoulders but not lower than the small of his back. He has deep-set jade green eyes, his skin nearly white.	Active Campaign Play
2009-06-29 11:20	Blacklight	Of average height and slightly overweight build, Blacklight wears his dark brown hair shaved almost to his scalp, with the exception of a long thin "rat tail" which he wears braided and clasped with a silver band. He wears street clothes - faded jeans, military surplus boots, T shirt and a synth-leather jacket emblazoned with the now defunct MZ gang emblem. He sports numerous tattoos, mostly in celtic and pseudo-celtic abstract designs. He also wears cheap, celtic looking jewellry in the form of earrings, amulets and rings, some of which are no doubt fetishes for his spellcasting.	Currently Inactive
2009-03-17 20:19	Candriel	A slightly shorter than average elf, with Brown eyes and Blue-Green hair. He is quite attractive and throws an easy and comforting smile to those around him. He wears loose fitting clothing and a well fitted jacket. He has a mild complexion.	Currently Inactive
2009-09-06 21:01	Elim	Elm is tall, even for an elf with a mop of dark, bob dylan-esq hair and a slightly golden skin complexion, like that of spanish or something descent and light green/blue eyes, his clothes are often scruffy as they are second hand, stolen or hand me downs.	Currently Inactive
2010-02-26 10:17	Sandman	The Sandman's hair is long and black, often caught up in a tail seized with a natural ivory clip, conversely his face is innocent of any trace of facial hair. His eyes are piercing but empty, milk-white orbs covered by a thin prismatic sheen which often unsettles those unaccustomed to them. His hard, roughly chiseled features have been schooled to perfect stillness, it would take a great surprise indeed to make emotion evident upon that immutable expanse of flesh. The Sandman speaks but rarely, though when he does, his delivery holds a sardonic, smug satisfaction to it as well a deeply imbedded irony, as though he understands more than mortal comprehension could ever hope to grasp. He moves with an unshakable self confidence and poise, equally at ease in the avenues or abbatoirs. His cold, cybernetic eyes seeing the beauty in bedlam and the monstrosity of the mundane with perfect clarity. Personalities have been described, at least by the poets, in much the same way as the stars of the heavens. Following this analogy, the Sandman could be described as a black hole - That is to say, a collapsed star. The events which have shaped his life have taken their toll upon his psyche, as evident by his warped humours. He observes the world through a disinterest so complete it appears hostile in its neutrality.	Currently Inactive
2009-11-03 00:31	Sundown	He's on the short side, only about 5'8" tall. His frame suits his size, however, being athletically fit and in shape. He keeps his sandy blonde hair cut short to about half an inch. Too many street fights helped him learn that giving his opponents less places to grab was a good idea. He's dressed in a well worn synth-leather jacket, and clothes that look almost a year out of date. A pair of well broken in, black work boots on his feet. His T-shirt is emblazoned with the logo of a long defunct dark-rock-industrial band. He wears a pair of worn out cargo pants, made from denim.	Currently Inactive
