Hospital Plot - Mount Up!

Nevermore contacts the characters involved in the hospital robberies investigation.

Through information provided by Figment, Nevermore has found the address of a suspect in the robberies. Gina Pelham, one of the doctors listed on the ledger found in the Family warehouse, purchased an old New York ambulance about 8 months ago in an auction, an ambulance believed to have been seen by one of Figment's contacts leaving the hospital in the early morning after the last robbery. The driver was dressed in a baseball cap and bomber jacket, like the perp seen in Nevermore's surveilance footage.

The address listed is in Baumton, and tonight, Nevermore is going in to investigate, bringing any who want to come along. It won't be played out, rather it'll be handled in the background, off-camera, with Ravenswing telling us what we find. However, it'll basically occupy the characters for the duration of GG tonight.

If Alex is taking coffee, then War Crow should arrive shortly after they arrive with his eyes closed, sniffing loudly.

It might be an excuse for Nevermore to finally tell Stargazer to get up off her lazy [censored] and help out!

The Cirque meets tonight at 8. Gives me about an hour and a half right?

I'm writing this lot down now so I don't forget it, you can assume you discover the information at the appropriate times. It's basically background and description for the location of the address nevermore has located.

At the far south west corner of Boomtown one or two brownstown buildings are still standing. This one is tucked away in a corner of the War Walls. A few clockwork are busily trundling around the area in front of it, but don't seem to be bothered about the building itself.

A lump of fallen masonary is leaning against the east wall of the building, but it appears largely undamaged. Even the windows are intact. The lower floor appears to only have a single door in it, but there are windows on the upper floor. There are air-conditioning ducts on the (flat) roof, but the arrangement of fans looks like it would be difficult to crawl in, so your entry options are probably the front door (don't forget the clockwork), or a window.

Personally, I'd go for splitting the window option.

Nope.. we take the door? Clockworks cant hit what they can't see. The door will be trapped if they think were comming, But your the God Damn Nevermore ( and ravensclaw will be there, just in case we have to do any real fighting )


 

Posted

Why the door if you expect it to be trapped? In fact, why would it be trapped at all?

If you need a strongman, Ironclad is in!

I like traps, and im damn sure they know we are coming. After the events of last time i know it!!!


 

Posted

Actually, the last traps were general security measures, not anything planned for us, otherwise they'd have had tougher protection.

This is a private address.


 

Posted

They know we are on to them im damn sure.

Okay, I left the hosue for a St John meeting at about 6.30, so I missed this post and hence turned up at GG as normal.

Seeing as Max is in an on-again, off-again thing with this case, would it be possible for him to turn up at the investigation after he finished GG at 11pm?

If not, then no worries.

...
and Lucifers Call *hangs head in shame*

Being as how Nevermore didn't turn up last night, I don't think anyone needs any excuses.

I thought it was happening off-camera and we weren't playing it out?


 

Posted

We weren't, but I thought you might show up to ask questions.

I'm going to short circuit this anyway and just give you the info, cos I'm not spending an hour with you lot sneaking around an emprty building.

The place is basically being used as a mail drop. Inside the door is a plastic mesh basket (lots of clockwork about, remember ) containing about three letters. Two are addresses to Gina Pelham, one is to the Director of Research, DTR Pharmaceuticals Inc.

The rest of the building is empty aside from the usual bits of paper, hair grips, carpet tacks, and other items you never manage to get out of a house when you leave it.

Proceed from there folks.

It suddenly strikes me that keeping an ongoing thread allows us to arrange stuff a lot better than each of us sending PMs.

So, head of DTR Pharmecuticals, eh?


 

Posted

I'd point out that it doesn't give a name, just a title. One can assume, if one wishes.

I assume nothing! All this is, is more stuff to research for now.

Okay peeps, we have info from our GM! Gina Pelham is indeed the head of DTR Pharmacuticals. The company lists its business as 'research into novel drug regimes produced via transgenic bacteria'. it was founded about a year ago and has, so far, shown no signs of producing anything. The registered address is in Baumton, which we learned was being used as a mail drop address. Clearly, it's a dummy corporation being used as a front.

DTR do, however, hold a lease on an office/workshop/laboratory-type building in Independence Port.

Niall's up for running us through the investigation of the location IC and in-game. He just needs an evening we're ll free to do it.

So far, due to moving and stuff, Jen and I have the following nights free for this:

Saturday
Sunday
Monday

Anyone have any of those nights they can't make? Any delay between now and when we get to play it out can be explained by the information simply taking longer to acquire. As Niall said to me, just because he's given the information Nevermore was looking for, doesn't mean Nevermore got it all in one go.

Sunday's best for me, I won't have college the next day. problem being, everyone else has work the next day.

Is Mina allowed to tag along?


 

Posted

She can ask.

The more the merrier as far as I'm concerned. If asked, Nevermore will be happy to have her along, so long as she stays safe (Doc scares him )
