I also replaced subtle on the radar in the cyberbrain array (passive radar doesn't really make sense when combined with analytical) with more distance instead[/sblock]Surge ponders what he's found "Hmmm, the airport.  Big place.  I guess I wasn't lucky enough for them to leave a full-on map of the airport with a big arrow saying Evil-Snake-Cult-Base-Here.  Then again, if they left something THAT details lying around in a cleaned-out abandoned base, that would just mean its a trap.  Of course, if they were smart and WERE setting a trap, they would do something like this.  Oh well, in my force field I trust."Surge teleports to an appropriately-unseen area at the airport (since he would have reason to go there every once in a while, presumably he knows where to teleport unseen(and I do mean unseen, as in, invisible)...the only requirement is that there needs to be a power or communications line or jack in the area).  He walks out of an electrical closet or whatnot, switching from invisibility to morph, appearing as a random male human.As he walks around, he pulls down the appropriate data from the Internet or other resources he can somehow access.  To start, he gets aerial photos (Google maps if he must, spy satellite if he can, over-time info being best to track unusual activity, all rapidly-processed using the Quickness 8 for cyberbrain programs) and a map of the airport (as detailed schematics as he can get his hands on).  He also takes anything he can find about the Yellow Sign.[sblock]Taking 20 with Quickness 8, Computers and Information Gathering Checks = 35, plus the benefits of the Contacts, Connected (Dip Bonus +15, will roll if necessary, but if I do not need to use it I won't, and if I do and can just take 10 I will), and Benefit: Security Clearance feats).  For hacking he also has comprehend codes, and with worldwide (in fact, far enough to access satellites directly) datalink/machine control and communications he can untraceably hack by remotely controlling random terminals somewhere else in the world, or even by directly datalinking to the target if he can locate it (if that actually is untraceable). [/sblock]Using this information, he tries to determine where the base might be, or at least where it is not.  Does he find anything useful with all this?Staying in heavily-trafficked areas, he uses radar to search the unused portions, or at least areas that he suspects, but from afar.   He also accounts for the fact that they might be underground.</blockquote>
