[QUOTE="Mosier, post: 6565920, member: 6776381"] Heartbreak knows the back-of-house labyrinth here better than anyone else in the group, and indeed probably better than most of the CTI employees themselves. The best place he can think of for having a good chance of being able to work without being interrupted is the "star" dressing room/lounge backstage of the CTI showroom. The room belongs to Evan "Extra Yardage" Yearly, the star of the televised show "CTI Sport City," which films on Fridays in the showroom. The only way anyone would enter that room today would be for cleaning or maintenance. Aleksander's files included the cleaning schedule for the room, so Heartbreak knows the room wont be serviced again until Wednesday night. It's electronically locked, and there is a camera on the hallway outside of the room. There is no camera inside the room, for Yearly's privacy. The only problem is that there is a security team assigned to patrol the hallway where the dressing room door is. Heartbreak can see a PAN (personal area network) icon for the drone handler, along with individual icons for each of the drones. Looking a bit closer, Heartbreak can see various individual devices slaved to the drone handler's company-issued comlink, most notably a gun with smartlink capability, a status monitor reporting each drone's status, and a "panic" device that will broadcast an emergency signal (along with the handler's location) if he pushes a button. The handler himself appears to have no special drone-control equipment. Apparently CTI (perhaps naively) trusts the security drones to operate almost entirely independently, as advertised. If Heartbreak wants to examine the drone icons closer, he may find out more about their specific abilities. However, this would be an opposed roll using the drone's firewall rating (which Heartbreak will not know the value of in advance). Heartbreak looks through the digital blueprints for any alternative room that fits his criteria. There are plenty of options, but in every case there is a security drone/handler squad somewhere between him and the destination. It seems as if the group might have to fight if they want to progress any further. If that is the case, Heartbreak will have to shut down communications between the handlers, or find some other way of making sure no alarm is sounded... [/QUOTE]
