Mending the Shadows
I love the spell description there! +1 karma.
"If I had contact to any of them, Cooperman would already be dead. I don't think Griffin would be happy if I showed up at his pad. Val got hired by Cooperman, and I only know she's at HSE from hearsay.
"As for Cooperman, that jerk face is a rat, plain and simple. He'll do anything for a little extra piece of the action. He's not so much in it for the nuyen as he is for the power. I suppose that's why he went on the run. He must have figured those chips would make him more powerful, for all the good it'll do when I get hold of him.
"He's really into history, considers himself an expert in the field. Blessed Lady, if you ever get him started, he'll talk your ear off. The battle of this, the general of that. Can't quite figure it, but he seems to have a serious lock-on for Genghis Khan. Why anyone would want to imitate that smelly barbarian is beyond me. In any event, he loves all that old stuff. The more obscure the better."
"He's not too distinctive. Short, 5'4". Dresses well though. Texas accent. Talks about posterity a lot."
In the hallway, Caduceus continues to watch. The hallway is mostly quiet; the doctor goes into room 4 and closes the door behind her. There's some screaming, then quiet, and the doctor walks back out, her apron spattered with blood. A nurse enters behind her, carrying a cyberfoot still in its shrink-wrap.
Noruas keeps his position by the back alley. Things are quiet, which is good.
Out in the parking lot, Copperhead keeps her eyes on the radar and cameras. The avenue gives her plenty of contacts to track, but none seem suspicious. Van, freight truck, minivan, motorcycle, motorcycle, sedan ... when with a screech of rubber, the sedan jumps the curb and the engine roars. Copperhead has a moment to brace herself before the big sedan smashes into the rear corner of the van, spinning it ninety degrees.
Resist damage of 3M for your van. You can use pool dice. If you take any damage, you need to roll a Crash test as well.
Everyone can roll initiative if they'd like, and Noruas and White Duck should roll a perception check (audio) to see if they hear the collision. At this point, only Copperhead is aware of the position of the car, and she and Caduceus both know there's been a collision.
