THE MATRIX: Ghosts of Tomorrow

"Bugger."

Ferret looks at the building.

"Well, any ideas? We could always just fight our way up, might take a while though," he says to the others.

 

[Dalamar]

Path looks up the lenght of the building.
"Technically, we could run up the wall. But maybe covert work might be better, as well as learning what section resides in it."

 

[Thomas Hobbes]

"Fighting," says Augustine dryly, "Would proboably earn us the attention of some of our target's former coworkers. No," he continues, "I think there are better ways to do this than wading through hordes of coppertops. Maybe we could get floor plans....?"

Veritas stares up at the building for a long, long time, his pale eyes never blinking once.

"We need some kind of diversion..." he muses. "What about disguise? Maybe Bug could supply us with forged documents or something..."

(OOC Jeph: Could I make use of my Mind score to bluff our way in or something like that?)

(Sure. Don't see why not. I'd set the Difficulty somewhere between 5 and 10, depending on the reason that you give for being there. Also, someone might want to bring up Bug on the cell, otherwise he won't be able to hear your requests. I'll leave it at that until some more of our intrepid heroes chime in . . .)

 

[Dalamar]

"I suppose cloaking devices are still beyond the reality of the Matrix so we can't bring them in without drawing attention."
Path takes one more long look at the building.
"Who wants to call Bug for the documents?"

 

[Thomas Hobbes]

"I'm on it." Augustine flips open the phone and makes the call. When he hears the pickup on the other line, he begins "Hello, son. Have you heard about the healing power of the holy spirit?"

"Seriously, Bug, can we get floor plans on this place? We're trying to figure a way in."

"Hello, son. Have you heard about the healing power of the holy spirit?"

Ferret chuckles.

"Maybe we could get in through the sewers," he suggests, "Then make our way up quietly."

 

[Bob Aberton]

"Sewers? Ehh...wouldn't they have thought of that? I mean, no offense, but going in through the sewers is kinda cliched..." Veritas objects. "I say it might be easier to bluff our way in; it leaves a better avenue for escape, anyways..."

 

[Jeph]

Bug snorts at the joke. "Okay, one floor plan commin' right up . . gonna take a second, military installations are tricky to catch . . ." The sound of the klickity-klack of keys filters through the phone. "Okay, gotcha." The tiny screen of the phone suddenly jumps into a pixelated blueprint. "You can use the menue keys to zoom in and out. I'll dump the sewers in just a min."

Why is the text blue?

It's a blue print! (haw haw haw)

Seriously, its gonna be a verry free form building. Just keep this in mind:

72 floors (no 13th floor). Most of them are standard cubicles. White is on the 53rd floor, near the north side of the buildling, down a 30 meter hallway from an elevator that runs strait up the northeast corner. The hallway has windows that look out onto the below street.

The lobbey is big, about 20 metyers by 20 meters, with columns along the edges of the room (2 meters in from the walls) and a few more sprinkled about the middle. All but the central column are just aesthetic; that one is there for support. There's a security desk about 3 meters in from the revolving glass doors (tinted glass, you can't see in).

The sewers are, you know, sewers. Obviously, they don't reach the 53rd floor. If you really wanted, you could painstakingly crawl through them and come out in the basement of the building 2 floors subsurface.

There are security cams sprinkled liberally throughout the entire building, although there are only a few in the basement. They're extra thick near White.

"Good luck. Operator out."
