===Into the Plastic Jungles===
The group is concerned that JLee may have absconded to Boston with their money. She's pretending to be operating out of Seattle thanks to a hardline Matrix redirect she purchased from the Code Coyotes decker gang in Boise, Auburn.
 
==Character Interests==
 
Maniac will be watching Urni for signs of corruption by the horrors.
 
The group would like to know more of what comes from the Draco Foundation's investigation of Dunkelzahn's Dragon Stone and their retrieval of it from the dragon's astral enclave.
 
The runners have found evidence of activity by insect spirits in the assassination of General Yeats near Bug City. They made a deal with Red Sonja, a Chicago-area decker, to gain her assistance in entering the Containment Zone. Having now escaped, they are investigating an investment group controlling a set of businesses linked to the insect spirit activity. They are having Shiba investigate Mitsutaka Mizutani, an upper-class Seattleite that owns a number of area businesses, including Gallery S and the building in which it resides.
 
The group wants to know more about the people who run Gallery S. They've taken computers from the gallery that they can use to track them down. They've asked Shiba to search the ShadowNet for a crack that could let them access the encrypted contents of the computers.
 
Nine is looking for Erim, who has disappeared after tricking him into participating in the assassination of Dunkelzahn. One of his old school buddies tracked down someone who his sources say knew her, a thief in prison in Denver. The thief provided DNA samples of her and three associates. Nine used this information to determine that she is a regular patient at [[Berlin UltraMedical]], and arranged for her to be kidnapped and interrogated when she shows up for a scheduled bioware implantation. Unluckily, Erim learned of the plot beforehand—though not that Nine was behind it—and has gone into hiding.
 
Maniac wants to find out more about Lone Star's possible involvement in Dunkelzahn's assassination.
 
The group is considering what to do about Dr. Leach's likely return to his unnatural experiments.
 
The group copied technical data for a trans-dimensional energy generator while in Bug City and is considering providing it to a trustworthy partner interested in strengthening the barrier between dimensions if they can find one online.
 
Urni is knitting herself a sweater out of various animal hair that she's gathering.
 
Urni is funding the takedown of an elven poacher operation in the California Free State.
 
Urni has RaverD of the Brain Eaters keeping track of Eldarian Thornsong.
 
The runners recommended Tyrinni Bluefeather to Janus Koskey.
 
==Favors Collected==


Mama Palazzo needs some well-armed people to escort her daughter on a search and rescue mission for her son. A spate of disappearances near the Snoqualmie river has driven the local jungle inhabitants out, eliminating the trade in a dual-natured fungus that only grows on trees along the riverbanks. Despite the danger, Mama's son Judd traveled to the river to gather some of the fungus, but hasn't returned. Mama has insisted that her daughter have an escort if she's going to go after her brother.
“Shaky” Sheila owes Nine a favor for helping her avoid buying bad medical chems.


A good reputation with Mama is worth free low-quality medical service for the purposes of overcoming injuries and access to any information she might be able to gather in the vicinity of the jungles. In addition, if the runners can retrieve the flowers, Mama will provide a few administrations of a spray she can make from the dual-natured fungus that infests them, that she would normally trade for supplies for her garden and community. The spray, if applied to someone, deposits dual-natured spores in their lungs. This would make the target trivial to track in astral space (as they would appear as a disembodied pair of lungs). In addition, the spores release a toxic compound if the target passes through an astral barrier, causing lethal bleeding in the lungs. The spores also cause a cough after a few days that would likely prompt medical attention, removing the condition.
The Yakuza running The Wet Tooth owe Kambei a favor for him helping defend the brothel the night Dunkelzahn was assassinated.

===Taking the Corners Back===
Astral Projection Mask
* An iron mask in the form of a delicately-featured elf, pearls embedded in a third eye at the forehead, the actual eyes covered in iron.
* Learning to astrally project costs 50k¥ less, but you need this mask to astrally project.
* 10k¥ black market value


The Brain Eaters are looking to muscle up. While they've been able to use their automated security to hold their territory in Touristville, the Rusted Stilettos have pushed them out of the area near Glow City, where the Brain Eaters had been running a profitable trading operation with the local mutants: salvaged tech from the nuclear reactor, infused with the toxic spirit of Glow City, in return for BTLs, chems, and weapons. The BEs are confident that, as the Stilettos don't have as much use for the resonant tech, a few good hits on their crews, followed by some overwatch to help with any retaliations, should get the Brain Eaters back their territory.
Unicorn Horn
* A horn hastily removed from a unicorn, the base cut roughly
* 10k¥ towards any magic training or 20k¥ towards learning Initiations, Health Spells, Shamanic Paths, or learning the rituals Circle of Healing, Circle of Protection, or Ward.
* 8k¥ black market value


The Brain Eaters will pay a tier 1 cash parcel to each runner once their territory near Glow City is secured. In addition, a good reputation with the Eaters will make it easier to find computer gear, make it easier to find decking support, and leads to higher-profit jobs driven by the info the Eaters can pull down from the Matrix.

The Red Hot Nukes want to make it clear that they're the only law on the Barrens highways. Lone Star has started running test convoys of goods out of factories in the Barrens, which risks cutting into the Nukes own protection business. They want to avoid directly confronting Lone Star, so they need an independent group to keep hijacking shipments until Lone Star gets the point. One rule, none of the hijackings can make the roads any more impassable, as the Nukes want to keep running cargo once the Star is gone. The Nukes will provide information regarding the convoys, including timing and load information.


The Red Hot Nukes wouldn't normally need outside help to take a convy, and so are charging half the value of any convoy taken for providing the convoy information. This leaves each runner a tier 1 cash parcel for each load taken, after the Nukes' cut, until Lone Star is scared off. In addition, a good reputation with the Nukes will make it easier to find ground vehicles and make it easier to get road escorts through the Barrens.
