Interpol), corporate extraction agent extraordinaire, has recently obtained a computer chip containing the plans for NASA's newest deep space craft. He had a young netrunner (Tom Fields) hit NASA using some programs Webbs provided, and once the job was completed, he shot Fields to ensure his silence. The data obtained was downloaded to a storage module; however, Webbs then had a Tech by the name of Gary Ottman download the information into a computer chip and encode it for protection. Webbs then destroyed the original module. He couldn't kill Ottman (who was || protected by a solo at all times). Webbs soon realised that the Euro Space Agency (ESA) would pay VERY well for the information and has contacted them to arrange a pick-up at midnight. As it happens, NASA wants the plans back and is being aided by the Japanese Aerospace Bureau (JAB). If Webbs can survive until the midnight rendezvous, the package will be taken from his hands. With a new passport, face and fortune, Webbs feels confident of evading pursuit. Unfortunately for him, his trail has been picked up several hours ago by both NASA and JAB. NASA has hastily engaged a couple of goons to kill both Webbs and whomever he meets, while JAB intends to enlist the barman to fix Webbs a drink which will stop him in his tracks, The ESA contact is a corporate ninja, with more cyber than all the players put together, who's watching from a corner of the bar. He expects a simple handover, not realizing how fast NASA and JAB have moved— And you're right in the middle. As the chips come down.Ll PLAYERS Macinta Bom of Russian parents, posted at the embassy in Canberra, you led an isolated childhood as your parents tried to shield. you from the “Australian Decadence’. But maybe your parents weren’t so wrong, At sixteen you ran away to Melbourne with your first lover, a street kid named Mark, ‘Twomonths later a bored gang razed your apartment block in the combat zone. You were woken by the screams of other ten- ants and by the sound of your own door being broken down. Mark was forced to watch as they brutally raped you; then they turned on him—taughing as they slowly tortured him to death. You were left for dead in the ruins of the block, of the thirty eight residents, only a handful survived. As a result you suffer severe anxiety attacks; unable to commit yourselfto action due to an irrational fear of consequences, After living on the streets fora few weeks you met Roxanne, a hard-edged rocker ‘with whom you shared a flat for the next four years, Her determination to succeed in the harsh realities of the rock scene, and to leave behind her own tortured past asa prostitute, helped you get your act to- gether and to return to your studies. Your discovery of the Net while studying at college fired your imagination, and you quickly developed a persona to guard your fragile reality. You are known as “Lilith” (after @ character of ancient mythology), and your net image is that of a ghostly female, accompanied by a “familiar” which seemsto act ofits own accord, performing actions which you yourself would fear to commit. This persona ensures that you are not affected by your anxieties once within the Net. (What the familiar looks like is up to yo Infact, once within the Net you are really HOT, you melt bases and crack codes just for fun and anyone who throws Black ICE your direction better duck, else they'll get caught by the shrapnel. Often your WHEN THE CHIPS ARE DOWN HELIOcuLoe ea “familiar” (actuallya modified Imp program running Killer and Worm), seems to act before you have time to think (in reality your subconscious acts much faster than You do, and often surprises you by leaping into the fray). ‘Afew months ago youmoved intothe 19th floor of an old office block in South Melbourne, sharing it with Roxanne and four guys.

Youdoyourbit, gettinginformation, or cracking adatabase to help with a particular job. They all seem a bit violent, but then who isn’t these days... Notes: Due to your anxieties, you will freak out under any stress situation, reducing your CL. stat to 2 (and you to a screaming ‘wreck), until the stréss passes. This does NOT occur once you are in the Net. ‘Shadow Life on the streets hasn’t been particularly kind to you. At fifteen you spent 6 months in hospital, the result of a street fight that almost killed you. You spent two weeks blind before the optics wentin, leaving you pretty much on edge about being in the dark. Joining the "Adders" seemed like a smart move, and being a gang member was your life until you “got involved" with Ruth - Unfortunately Talonn, the leader of an opposing gang called the "iron Sights”, had similar taste in ‘skin’, and he’d already decided that Ruth was HIS. She and you both ran, and lay low till you thought the heat had died off. Eventually you joined the army, only to have Ruth murdered while you were away on manoeuvres. You're pretty certain which scum did it, but there isn’t much you can do against a gang lord... yet. Although effectively an “ex” member of your old gang, you're still on good terms ‘and sometimes exchange favours. While in ' I ' ' ‘ : : | CREDITS |? When the Chips Are Down By Chris W.

The stats for the cybersnake are given on the Data Screen, Due to it’s design, and rarity, itis unlikely that anyone will realize you have it. It will aso not be detected by security monitors. You must have a dose of Angel at least every 24 hours, otherwise you will quickly lapse into violent fits. These will last until ‘you either dose or cold turkey (which will take at least a week).

In the field, a military cyberarmwas the only option. Why bother having it replaced? Mind you, the built in Dorph injector wasn't exactly an option, but you won't need it ... next time. The shielding in the arm hides the other options pretty well, even through the best security gear; which has saved you more than once, While recovering from the op you did some thinking, and since then you've ac- quired a rep as something more than just another cyber-soldier. Over the next two years you built a reputation, and the knowledge to back it, as an explosives expert. You found yourself more in de- mand astime progressed, frst it wassimple things like ordering explosive artillery and ammunition. Soon you were being brought inon big strikes, helping to plan major hits against installations; working out how much of which explosive would be used, ‘and howitwould be delivered. Now you're back in the civilian pit, but there are corporates (and others), who can use skills like yours, and they pay real well... if you survive ‘Shadow was one of your few friends in the service, and Tuttle's med skills saved your butt more than once, so when you mustered out around the same time, it made sense tostick together. There'salways more chance to survive as a team. You are currently living on the 19th floor of an old office blockin South Melbourne, sharing it with Shadow and Tuttle, a nomad called Cheetah, and two girls—Roxanne and Macinta. Things were real grim for awhile, but luck’s started picking up. You're not sure yet where things are going, butyou're damn sure that it'll be hard and fast. Cheetah Life on the open road has always been home, a Harley 2000 chewing up the k's and an HK to do your talking, Things were pretty cool until your accident”. The mine field was obviously set up by a corporate, designed to remove your family for good Lucky for them you were out front - not so lucky for you though. Still you survived, WHEN THE CHIPS ARE DOWN HEI Bere and technology enabled you to be repaired, But cyberware isn’t cheap in the wilds and ‘your survival needed fast work, costing the Family heaps. At least the new legs work pretty well; you can’t leap tall buildings, but you can manage a decent long jump. ‘And now you can dance something wild, You decided it was time to head into the concrete jungle and get yourself an "education"; at least till you can earn your | way as a real asset to the family. A few months back you shacked with a couple of, ex-army types (Hawk, Shadow and Tuttle), and are currently living on the 19th floor of an old office block in South Melbourne. You are now sharing it with the guys and two girls. Roxanne seems to know the streets pretty well and Macinta, well... she seems useful to have around. You get on finewith thistemporary "Family", and Tuttle even picked you up a reflex boost. Extractions and hit jobs aren’t really Family | style, but you don’t have time to be fussy. Besides, you wanted experience ... ight ? Notes: Under your biker leathers you sport a pair of chromed cyberlegs. These havenoextra options, but give you incredible running speed and jumping ability (see pg. 10). Tuttle Yeah, you saved lots o' lives for the army boys; itwas how you did it that tured you off. The army doesn’t recognize terms like “"Cyberpsychosis” or "Cybernetic Rejection Syndrome"; they prefer to call it "Low |. Probability Battle Fatigue". Whatever; the |. drug injectors (Dorph, BlackLace, or worse), massive cybernetic replacements, pain blockers, and enhancements like “remote neutralization” or "cranial bombs" jarred ‘your already tamished visions. Now you're out, but what next? News is that the corps are worse, and the good jobs; Trauma Team or large hospitals, are pretty rare. Freelancing gives you options, but work's been pretty scarce so far, just the odd ripperdoc wanting a few hours help on a big job, or a carved-up booster struggling for life.

They seem pretty efficient, although Macinta isa little weird and you have some ideas about Roxanne- some times she seems pretty spaced out (but then she is a rocker. PART 1: LIVE & LET DIE 14.00 pi The scene: The characters are sprawled around a table at a booth in their favourite || (cheap) dive, The Blowtorch, trying to get “| drunk so they can forget that they don’t “| even have enough money to get properly drunk. It's dark and dirty, and outside a fierce wind whips insistent rain against the window. This bar is full of people, drunk, stoned, and almostallreally weird; thesort _| of people you try to avoid even in main streets during the day. Four bar-people serve behind the counter, which is riddled with scars from previous nights battles. Only the two tanks employed as bouncers keep the unstable crowd from breaking into a full firefight. Just to liven things up. The characters are approached by a some- what nervous-looking male in his mid- thirties, He is wearing an expensive sui and speaks with a strained English accent. The only obvious signs of cyber are his mirrored optics. He orders a round of whatever they are drinking, and a Martini (dry, shaken, not stirred) and begs their indulgence He offers a total of $1,000 ($500 up front) for protection by the group for the next hour. This is a pretty good deal, and he will only goashigh as $1,500if pressed but will try and belittle the characters if they hod ‘out too long, ‘The two thugs hired by NASA (see pg. 29- 30) have appalling timing, and will appear ‘on the scene just as the group agreesto the deal, Since they see the $500 change hands they believe that thisisactually the meeting Webbs has planned for later tonight. While the thugs are pretty good, they are defi. nitely no match for this group of armed punks, But, the ensuing firefight should heat things up. Ifthe players delay too long, then they will find themselves in the middle of a firefight anyway. The playersare pretty broke. Unfortunately for them, whatever they're drinking is disgusting, Even $500 bucks should seem 2 fortune right at the moment. Also, Webbs only has $525 left on him after buying drinks, the restis supposed to come from the meeting. Don’t kill Webbs. Yet. Also, remember Hawk's Dorph injector has, only 2 shots left, This whole thing should definitely stress Macinta, Aftermath: ‘As the dust and bodies settle, the charac- terscan each have an (Awarenesss 15) roll to notice a dark clad Asian leaving the bar, casting a furtive glance in their direction. They can give pursuit, but this ninja (Tapia) will easily escape for a later encounter. 11.45 pm: Give the players time to settle down again, chat (chat up?) and generally relax. Webbs will not leave the bar until after the meet- ing and will say very lite, just sit and drink. Once everyone starts to relax then... Webbs chokes suddenly on his drink and throws himself violently off his chair, clutching his head in agony. Unfortunately for him, thisis his ast act as the poison fed to him by the barman, courtesy of JAB, takes effect. He collapses, dead.On searching the body, only a wallet con- taining $25 ($525 if they didn’t deal), a business card (see handout), a Trauma Team card, and a small shrink-wrapped package are found. When the characters ‘open the package, itis found to contain a blue computer chip, about the size of a thumb-nail, with no identifying marks. Within two minutes 2 screaming whine is heard as the Trauma Team™ makes its appearance, and Webbs’ body is dragged off. If the players hang around for more than five minutes the police will arrive Obviously they are prime suspects since they were sharing a table. While the police won't actually try to arrest them they will hassle abit. If this also degenerates into a firefight use the "Generic Police” stats in theNPCsection. The three copsare backed up by an AV4 which will give chase for a while but refrain from shootingin the main streets. The police will take samples of Webbs' cigarette, drink etc. for testing The players may decide to collect samples of drinks etc. themselves, however this must be done before the police arrive Analysis must be done by a lab, and will cost $120-no bargaining. Itwill show that the drink contains a high strength syn- thetic poison, possibly from a biotech lab Japan. Don't forget to let them find the chip. Later on: There is nothing that can be found out about the chip (or anything else) untill morning, but let them try if they like, Eventually they will return home ... Transport of delight: Note that Roxanne has a car and Hawk and Cheetah have bikes. These are parked in a car-park near the club. If they forget them, (ah, well) they will find the vehicles in the moming, somewhat stripped (tires, radio, interface electronics, etc.).

Police AV4’s, advertising blimps and Trauma Team ve- hicles regularly break the silence and dark, moving off into the night sky. ‘As they turn the final corner, an alarm is heard. The characters are greeted with the sight of five punks around and under Roxanne’s car. The punks will run as soon as they realise the owner is approaching (with friends) since they were only thinking of stripping ita bit (but the characters don’t know that). Afterall, they could have been plantingatracing device, orevenabomb... PART 2: HOME SWEET HOME The office block where you live is a 45 story concrete relic of the previous century. On arriving home (itis now at least 1.00 am) you discover that the external lights are ut, Reaching the ramp down tothe carpark you find the key-card access device ripped Off its post, and the roller door buckled and bent inwards. ‘The storm has taken out the power to the wholearea. Not only the lights, butalso the security access system to ALL doors.

It is up to them how they use it. | ¢ Hawk (Shadow/Cheetah): (CL vs15) The hit-men who attacked the group at the Blowtorch were hired by a Japanese guy, probably some sort of corporate exec (Ac- tually they were hired by NASA, but let’s ‘not make it too easy). * Hawk (Shadow): (CL vs 15 of Int vs 15) Several soloshave been given a retainer by a certain American suit to keep an eye out foraguy dressed in avery “British” manner, who could be using a name such as Webbs, ‘Webber, Webb or Walker.

Other characters can pick up any of this information by talking to some Netrunners, however this is not easy. the playersask, the best place to tryis The Green Roach (a popular Netrunnerwateringhole). However, itrequires an Intvs 10 or CLvs 15 roll to find someone who will give them the time of day. Once managed, a couple of decent drinks (worth at least $20 per major piece of news) should be enough to get these sorts of rumours.

The only thing that can really be gained from this database is confirmation that it has recently been hit—although Macinta can obtain a copy of the deep space craft plans that Is not encoded, if she really tries hard. Play this hard and fast - and remember the notes on Netrunning above. if Macinta travels to the NASA Fortress, then read the following: “Suddenly you are at the fortress, and you realize youare not alone, The insidious shape of a Hellhound is lurking close by. This foul parody of a program is obviously waiting for @ fellow Netrunner, or possibly even you. It seems to sniff the air, its evil intent palpable in the electronic ether. What do you do?” Macinta may decide to run here. Even if she doesn't, waiting for any length of time ‘willshow that the Hellhoundisn’tinterested in her. However, this is one of the worst forms of ICE, and Lilith should react to such an affront.

He looks somewhat familiar, and is in fact the same Asian gentleman who was seen leaving the Blowtorch after the fight, His name (which he will NOT provide) is Tapia. His stats are given in the reference section at the back. Read this: "mn front of you an Asian male reclines com- fortably in your only armchair. Although he smiles pleasantly, his overall bearing is one of concealed menace, and a chill runs up your Spine at his apparent lack of concern at seeing you." Tapia has no obvious signs of weaponry but he is unperturbed by any armaments the characters may be waving about. He will only fight in self defence, and even then will only attack those who attack him. Assuming the entire party is not removed in this manner, he will then smile and, in stilted English, say: “thaveamessage or you. itisveryimportant.

Itisin your best interest to deliver for ‘me, you will be given $100,000 each on delivery. This envelope contains the time and place, and other necessary items for the drop."

Security is Now very tough, most importantly in re- stricting ANY weapons onboard flights Signs, metal detectors, nasty sniffer dogs and LOTS of security personnel should convince the characters that weapons are not legally permitted into space. (Please note the word LEGALLY). AtALLstages of the trip, the characters will be warned that no weapons are allowed in orbit. A battery of detectors, cameras, and searches is used to enforce this point. Equipment can be checked into a locker at each point, otherwise it will be confiscated if found, This includes cyberweapons; gadgets like rippers are disabled before | anyone is allowed to board.

(Well not really, but let them think so). ‘The OTV has been sabotaged by JAB in an attempt to stop the chip reaching ESA. Itis not completely disabled, however, and they can continue to Crystal Palace. Read the following: "You feel miserable, Your stomach wants to cravlinto your mouth.

Afterall, there is nothing outside that thin wall but space, no air... no ground... "Suddenly there is a jarring jolt, and the main lights ficker and die.

Even through the fear- induced haze you can tell that your craft is now tumbling out of control, probably damaged beyond repair, and your vital air i leaking out into the cold depths of space!" Make a roll for CL. vs 15 (no modifiers or skills) for each character, Macinta will defi- nitely get stressed again so she will usea CL of 2. Anyone who fails is now panicing. Characters who are panicing make all rolls at -10 for the rest of the session. Everyone can attempt to put on the skin suit under their seat.

Thesuitdistributes warm air around the body, and also holds it together in vacuum. if they fail a rol of Ref vs 15 they will find themselves floating across the room, leaving the suit behind. Characters who are floating can attempt to manoeuvre back (takes two turns), or to grab someone else's suit, on Ref vs 15. Then they can try again, if they get the suit on, then a roll of int vs 15 is required to get it right. Suiting up takes 3 tums if they get it right first time,otherwise they will have to spend another 2 tums to try again, ‘Any characters (probably all or most) who donot have on asuit after 6 turns willbegin to experience breathing difficulty, pains in the chest etc. Roll 1010 each turn for each player, on a roll of 4 or less they lose consciousness, After nine turns, all characters not in suits will black out. Lost in Space The OTV is still tumbling out of control, although those characters who passed out have been got into skin suits by others.

Remember that they are in Zero G (Ref vs 15 to control any movement) and that there is noair; those without radio links wil have to communicate with sign language or touch helmets. You may also like to remind Macinta that sheis wearing a space suit, and any sudden movement of her right hand may well slice it open (Scratchers, right). Don’t actually let this happen, but it’s good for a scare.

Loam ee pe) IF YOU WANT TO SELL YOUR SOUL Background: In order to offload the chip, the characters will have to work out who wants it, and whether they want to sell interested par- | ties are: NASA-Who would really like it back, thank you. ESA - Who want it real bad and have/will kill to get it, and who IN NO WAY want to spend any more money on this deal, JAB - Who just want to help tie up a deal ‘with NASA so that things can get done. INTERPOL - Who have absolutely no idea what is going on, But these guys aren’t stupid and will quickly notice all this activ- ity in the Palace Even if the characters do a deal with one party, they will not get home alive without help. NASA will provide an escort to a special return flight, ensuring that they will make itback. f they do not take this up, or do a deal without this guarantee, they will be in big trouble. Crystal Palace Through the open flight deck door you have a restricted view out the pilot's view ports. Ahead you see the shape of a large rotating cylinder, five massive toruses ro- tating in the emptiness of space. As you approach you can make out the shapes of other OTVs already docked, attached like parasites to the skin of some huge floating creature. Docking and Entry: This has 2 piloting difficulty of 15, (nota real problem for Raz) but roll dice anyway and look worried. Read this: "You see the huge structure rise toward you, walls of glittering metal and glass rushing uncomfortably close. Ahead, the round features of a docking bay rolls into view, but it seems to be rushing up fast. Your pilot curses, wrenching at the controls and shouts “nang on”. You feel the deceleration as she tries to correct her mistake.” ‘Ask what they are doing. Anyone who is strapped in their seat is OK, otherwise make a Body vs 20 for those standing or Body vs 15 for those on the floor. Anyone who fails will take some minor (no points) bruising. Read on: "There isa solid bump, but miraculously you seem to have made it. Raz collapses onto the ‘console, therush of adrenalin which supported her efforts fading with the stress.

"So this is the Palace... “You are put through another set of routine checks, but this time compounded by ques- tions about the accident.

There are five possible endings for this scenario, We've listed each option below, || with separate details for each one. 1) Return the chip to NASA: This isthe preferred option. The characters _| can request a meeting with NASA by "| contacting them via the Net or phone or by approaching the NASA tail directly. They will quickly be advised to meet at ‘| room 117C/1/2 (Le. room 117C on level "| 1 of Torus 2). ifthey go, read the following: “You are met at the door by an attractive blond woman, who directs you into a large and opulent suite. This room is big! A huge window looks out into the depths of space, while large chandeliers float ot dangerous ‘angles from the ceiling. The walls are deco- rated in numerous original paintings and designer wall hangings. One wall consists of 9 full size display screen, currently showing images of running water and trees, while ‘quiet music fils the room. It is obvious that this is how the rich live, and is something of ‘shock since your own rooms seemed rather luxurious. | "The room contains four people other than yourselves. The woman who met you at the door, andaman, who are both immaculately and expensively dressed, and a male and femalewho appear morefunctionally dressed and are both carrying flechette pistols." The woman, an American who will intro- _| duce herself as Alex, will conduct negotia- tions. She will offer the characters $120,000 || tobe credited to an account (or accounts) of choice, for handing over the chip (She can be bargained up to $200,000 total, but NO MORE). They will also provide safe passage backto any earth portviaaguarded flight later that day. Alex will readily an- sswer any questions she can, including: ‘+ The chip contains stolen plans of a NASA space ship. ‘= NASA does not require the chip, but obviously does not want anyone else to getit. * She is offering as much as she can - especially considering it belongs to NASA in the first place * Yes, other sources may pay higher, how- ever the characters wll probably not survive a deal with any of the other parties. Firstly because they will almost certainly be double crossed and secondly, NASAwilltrackthem down and enact revenge. The solos will stand back, and itis obvious they are ready to react at the first sign of trouble. Any attempt to leave will show that the door is not locked, however Alex willbecome quite insistent that the chip be retumed to her, and points out that the other groups involved are sure to know that they have met and will probably act quickly to rectify the situation, 2) Sell Chip to ESA: ‘Oh dear, they don’t really want to do this do they? Oh well... ifthe players request a meeting they willbe advised to meet at room 73A /215 (level 2 of torus 5), where they will be met by three ESA representatives. If they go, read the following: "You are met at the door by a smiling Asian ‘male who you quickly recognise from your meeting planetside. He directs you into a Jarge board room. The walls are wood panelled, andan enormous rectangular table extends down its length. The room is remarkably devoid of decoration, the only ‘major features are the table and awellstocked bar in the far corner. The room contains three people other than yourselves. The ninja (Tapia) you already know. There's another Asion male, also carrying flechette pistols, and an immacu- lately dressed male who remains seated at the far end of the table." The male, who speaks with a German accent, is an an egotistical, sexist, obnox- ious bastard. He will introduce himself asWHEN THE CHIPS ARE DOWN | A2020 ADVENTURE | ees Karl and announces he will conduct all him, Ifthe charactersattempt toforce their [71 negotiations.

The only real joy to be answer any questions, and if pressed for gained is that they might rid the world of formation regarding the chip will reply: Kari, "You have involved yourself in something Itwould alsobe aspectacularending tothe ‘much larger than yourselves, but atleast you game... hhad the sense to bring the chip as advised.

ESAwill surmise that Webbs stuffed up, and won't take this out on the charac- ters, while NASA would actually pay as muchas the $100,000 per characterif they offer this. Let them bargain up from the ‘original $100,000 total price themselves. Be HERE'S THE FINAL OUTCOME OF EACH DECISION: (1) If they do a deal with NASA (or JAB) | they will be returned home, $100,000 richer. Congratulations all round.The End (2) If they do a deal with ESA they have a big problem, NASA will be really pissed, and are unlikely to give them any protec- tion now while JAB will be down right dangerous. if they take up ESA’s offer of safe passage they have a really unpleasant ride back in the cargo bay of an ESA OTV. If not, advise them that they have several days of being harried before they can get a flight back. No matter what methods they use, when they hit earth they will discover no money was ever really transferred into their accounts. Better luck next time. The End (3) They may try to do some sort of double deal. If they deal with both parties (allow- | ing ESA to copy the chip and then return- 1g it to NASA) they are treading the fine line, and their trip home will depend (as above) on whose offer for passage they take. They may get the $100,000 dollars from NASA, but the $400,000 from ESA was never real! itwill take NASA at most six months tofind out, and they will definitely decide to remove the characters - you can point out that they would need to com- pletely change their identity and current careers (could be a big problem for some characters) to avoid this fate, which wil cost about $20,000 each, or else they will easily be found, Better luck next time. The End (4) ifthey decidenottodealwith anyone, i.e. keep the chip and try torun home orask Interpol for protection, then they will get nothing. They will be killed (by NASA, ESA or JAB - whoever gets to them first) before they can leave. Better luck next time. The End (5) If they double-cross ESA, with NASA's help, they will be returned home, at least $120,000 rricher- possibly significantiy more. Congratulations all round.
