Deuce Traveler
Adventurer
It’s night by the time you make it to the derelict shipping district, the only sounds around you being the slight buzzing from nearby powerlines and the late barking of various semi-feral mutts communicating to one another from yards of rundown homes and rotten smelling alleys. The sky is overcast, hiding the moon and the stars, while a soft drizzle of rain muffles the sounds of your party member’s griping to one another.
There it is in front of you: the Hep-Happy Warehouse, complete with its happy-face logo and anthromorphic packrat mascot, spray-painted to the front of the structure’s rusting exterior. Officially, this building is empty and abandoned, which would explain the municipal government’s warning signs taped to the windows and the various chain links held together with corroded locks at the main entrance. But your fixer claims there are automated defenses inside, and a secretly running mainframe, housing a large electronic volume of research notes your client desperately wants you to copy, before wiping out all data on the mainframe so others cannot duplicate your efforts. This raises a lot of questions for you, such as what was really being conducted at this facility, but a paying job is a paying job, and you’ve got some bills overdue and appetites to fulfill.
