Session 1 - 2023/08/24
Two For The Show
| Who | Rook, Shiranui, Tak, Zosimos, Bobsie Twins |
| When | Wednesday, October 22, 2059 (Day -57) |
| Where | Blue Flame Tavern, Tacoma, Seattle Metroplex |
A group of shadowrunners meets up at the Blue Flame Tavern, an entry-level Shadowrunner bar off Rt. 67 where Tacoma, Puyallup, and Auburn meet. The team has had enough recent success to make them bubble up to the top of this particular cesspool, but they still come here out of tradition.
Shiranui, the only one among them known to bear a real SIN and hold down a real job, is late arriving. Once she arrives, the proprietor, the The Chinaman offers them free drinks as congraulations for thier last success. They're probably watered down, unless there's something he wants from the group or he's trying to keep them around. He soon tells them that the Bobsie Twins are looking for them. Rook and Tak both have heard of them as low-tier bruisers, but don't really know much about them — at least, not beyond the fact that they're not twins at all.
The Twins appear soon after, with a job offer. Shiranui and Zosimos pick up on some discomfort with Shiranui's presence at the table, though they're not sure if it's because she's the groups token metahuman, token female, or both. The team and the Twins banter back and forth a bit, evetually reaching a point where they can't or won't give any details, and get surly when the team presses them.
Figuring there's no harm in listening to the pich, they all mount up and head downtown. Zosimos rides with Tak, Rook and Shiranui have a car and bike respectively, while the twins are also motorcyclists.

Into The Fire
| Who | Shiranuyi, Ram |
| When | Friday, October 24, 2059 (Day -55) |
| Where | PCC Financial Subnet Watchdog Monitor Alpha |
Shiranui heads to PuebloNet, the Pueblo Corporate Council's national grid to access the host identified on the datachip they got from Jesse's lackeys. It's a subtly different experience than she's used to. Everything is cripser, more elegant with dataflows processing timeslices at a much higher rate than Seattle's grid does.
The host itself is a massive black edifice, looking like a high tech castle with high towers, crenelated battlements, humming with power. As soon as she activates the utility from the datachip, everything changes. It appears as a black-and-red pennant — some sort of special mark — flying from her samurai icon's banner pole. The same pennants drop from the walls of the castle and it turns a pristene glowing white, with trumpets blaring a fanfare and a drawbridge descending towards her.
As soon as she enters the host, she encounters another icon — a troll-sized black-furred humanoid with glowing red eyes, carrying a katana with a matching red laser edge. He's also bearing the same special matrix authorization recognition key she is, his taking the form of a tag on a dog collar. Calling himself Ram, he taunts Shiranui, inviting her to come "play" with him.
They go back and forth for a bit, exchanging tricks and ploys, but failing to deal any substantial damage to each other's icons. He breaks away from her, clearing her marks on him and moving to a different host. Without any effort on her part, she's able to identify where he went and reacqure a mark on him. She gives chase.
Once she finds him, he deliberate sets the new host on alert. Two PCC spiders log into the host and engage the two hackers. Apparently having done what he was here for, Ram soon logs out. Unwilling to tangle with two spiders, Shiranuri escapes as well.
