Minn Mixup

Black Star has hired the runners to recover an asset (an individual using the SIN Kai Hargrove) who is possibly compromised after entering the Hearts and Minds project. They had entered a corporation called Omni Systems who might have been infiltrated by Hearts and Minds. We are to recover the data the asset is looking for, and if possible, the asset.

The team has also been given a short description and image of the planted Hearts and Minds asset, a human female by the name of Shanti Nadeau.

Midwest Pirates Gang Testimony

Omae, there's been a lot of new decking talent in the twin city scene for the last few months, our cracked program warez are being sold like hotcakes! Most of the people coming in are from people seeing the writing on the wall at NeoNET and trying to secure themselves something before thier corp SINs become worthless, and NeoNET had a lot of deckers.

While you learnt a lot about the woes of the gang and how the Irish mafia managed to get a hold of a lion's share of these ex-NeoNET deckers, you did learn that there was a local tech agency by the name of Hello Work which managed to match a number of the better deckers with legit jobs, but as supply outstripped demand, this was only afforded to a lucky few.

A bulldog has been purchased with group funds - sTAtIC will buy it at the end of the run.

Highest Opposed Die Pool: 20 (Technically probably whatever the gang's matrix perception is)
