03 THE MISSING EMPLOYEE

EXCERPT

The crew executed a loud and violent warehouse breach to rescue Sam, a vital Biogell liaison who was being subjected to a forced data transfer. Following the successful extraction, the players used incriminating data to blackmail the corrupt corporate manager, Max, successfully completing a hostile takeover of the operation and securing Sam as a critical ally in the corporate underworld.

SESSION SUMMARY

  • The Warehouse Breach: Following the breadcrumbs to the derelict docks, the crew—Petra, Pierce, and Knuckles—staged a rescue operation to save Sam. Eschewing stealth entirely, the team used a stolen van to execute a thunderous, non-subtle forced entry directly through the warehouse walls.

  • Rescuing Sam: Inside the warehouse, the crew interrupted a critical situation where Sam, a vital underground Biogell liaison, was being held captive. The gangers were in the middle of executing a forced data transfer from him, which the team successfully halted as they secured his extraction.

  • Blackmailing Max: With Sam safe and incriminating data in hand, the crew went after the corrupt manager, Max. By weaponizing the recovered digital evidence and leveraging Knuckles’ intimidating physical presence, the team successfully forced Max to fold completely under the pressure.

  • Corporate Foothold: Max’s total capitulation resulted in a complete hostile takeover of the underground Biogell operation by the player characters. While the crew established a powerful new foothold in the corporate underworld and secured Sam as a vital long-term contact, they remain highly aware that the lingering threat of Corpse Reviver still looms over them.
