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.

Mob War Jobs
| Target | Description | |
| Mafia | ||
| 1 | The Lucky Lounge | The first floor is a bar and lounge. The second and third floors are a “private members’ club” offering a variety of table games. While the Mafia’s main gambling operations are the legal casinos in Everett, the Lucky Lounge caters to people who want easier access to Redmond’s other illicit offerings. |
| 2 | Hollywood Simsense Entertainments | This factory in Redmond churns out cheap simsense gear and even cheaper sim-chips. The place has its own studios, which produce mostly soft porn and horror-schlock, using "actors" with all the emotional impact of wet carp. The company is in the pocket of the Seattle Mafia and cranks out low-grade BTL chips for sale to chippies all over the metroplex. In its back rooms, Hollywood films hardcore sim-porn and even worse drek, like snuff-films using "actors" recruited from the streets of the Barrens. A lot of wannabe actors and actresses end up working in one of HSE's productions after becoming addicted to BTLs, so they'll do whatever the director says for another hit. |
| 3 | Piazza Pixel | A 24-hour Matrix cafe. Mostly terminals, but with some basic simsense rigs in the back. The Mafia runs identity theft, phishing, and carding schemes out of an office on the second floor. |
| Triad | ||
| 4 | Jade Pavilion Racing | Off-track betting. They mix spoofed credstick transactions in with the real ones to spread counterfeit money good enough to pass the sort of offline credit checker common in the barrens. |
| 5 | The Basin | Triad soldiers prove their skills by hunting unfortates tagged with explosive collars in the Rat’s Nest, with bets taken on every aspect of the competition. |
| Seoulpa Rings | ||
| 6 | Pine Lake Trailer Park | A number of chem-manufacturing labs are mixed in with the mobile homes in this trailer park by the lake. |
| 7 | Nexus Medical | Native American abductees are delivered from over the border by a NaN gang for organlegging at this body shop. |
| Special | ||
| X | Aldo “Al the Squid” Burke | A sotocapo of the Bigio family. Runs a series of joytoy joints in Mafia territory in Redmond. Kill him in a way that makes it look like part of the intra-mob war. The marked location is for is home in Bellevue. |
