[/ooc]Gibraltar nods. “Well you won’t get anything out of Ponder Tom.  He was shot trying to escape from HPD, which of course means no one paid his bail because he pissed me off for the last time.  You want to know about a hit?  Barnes?  Give me a minute.”  She sits in one of her booths, sets a VR headset over her braids and goes still.  She comes back in less than a minute and Hawkeye receives a message with a file attached.“That’s all I know about it,” she says.The file was created by Nice Guy Larry, showing him as a slender elf with sharp cheekbones and a spiked, green faux-hawk.  The video is a conversation between the former gang leader and a man in a pin-striped purple and black suit.  He is wearing a long-brimmed black hat, goggles and a mask over his face.Striped suit man: “I have more work for you.  There are three mechanical engineers I need snuffed, Abraham Zuebrini, Tess Milkner, and Pauline Barnes.  I’ve sent you the file with their information.  They all have spouses, so do them too, home invasion type stuff.  I don’t want anyone looking into this, so I’ll make the usual arrangements with HPD to put minimum effort on the case.  There won’t be any heat for this.  Make it messy, and take whatever you want, but I want your best killers.  I need all three engineers dead before next week.”Nice Guy Larry:  “Yeah, no prob, chummer.  I’ll see to it myself with my regular crew.  They just like to kill and plunder.  They don’t care why.”The information includes the file which has the addresses and family information for each of the three targets.Gibraltar holds up a finger. “The Hudu Krew has had dealings with the suit man since long before my time.  Nice Guy Larry didn’t know who was behind the mask, and neither do I.  I still have regular meetings with the same guy, and he wears that same outfit every time.  Here’s where we can help each other out, because I want out from under this naughty word.  I have another meeting with the Striped Suit Man two days from now.  I’ll give you the address and time, and you can do your thing.  Just make sure he doesn’t talk to anyone afterwards.  You don’t want this guys friends after you.”Gibraltar replies with a smile, “Sure, I’m willing to owe you a favor.  I don’t know how you stood against three gangers with diamond sharp gladii, and walked away without a scratch on you.  I’m glad y’all came to see me today.  Think about it and message me.”[ooc] all the player will have to do is state in a post that they are messaging Gibraltar to use their favor.  Opportunities for roleplaying. [/ooc]When Gibraltar turns to Syd, he calmly says, “I want a Magnum Foster, also known as the Foster Child.”Gibraltar’s face sinks from shock.  Then she nods and grins. “They told me you used to be Hudu.  Musta known a few hefties to be able to make that claim.  Alright, wait here.”  Gibraltar walks through the back door near where her table sits and after a few tense minutes returns.  In her hands she holds a full auto two-hand firearm.The Magnum Corporation produces it, and Brendan Foster was the designer.  Magnum made it for high-end security forces.  The weapon was deemed too dangerous for street use and production was banned.  Only a few thousand made it out of the factory, and at least half that have been confiscated by HPD (but only officially destroyed).  The weapon is light and compact compared to other two handed full-auto firearms, but just as deadly.Magnum “Foster” aka “Foster Child”<table style='width: 100%'><tr><td>Full Auto- Two Hand</td><td>0</td><td>40</td><td>40 (clip) 100 (belt)</td><td>8 lbs</td><td>-15 Reaction</td></tr></table>Full Auto Firearms can engage multiple targets in one attack.
