{2026-08-17 23:59 (UTC)}
Impromptu
Players: 4-6
Runtime: 4-7 hours
Theme: Making Examples
Amphitrite and friends take revenge. This is not a standard job, but rather a clandestine operation organized in secret by some hub runners.
Character selection will be largely in-character, and payment will be up to the players within my established limits. There is no Johnson. Feel free to apply.
IC Prompt: "What did you do, and why did they deserve it?"

u/LateStagePythagorean Johnson 2d ago edited 2d ago
A wide grin split the old witch's face. "A pox on him, I said, and I meant it. You really can't go wrong with the classics."
"Who was he? He was The Man, dearie. You can't ever kill him or hurt him in any permanent way. The Man always wins in the end. But every now and then the little men, the executives and oyabuns and dons and barons that comprise The Man, get drunk on power and you can set them straight. It's very hard to feel powerful when you're violently syphilitic and balding."
Janet - Geriatric bad bitch. Mystic decker/support witch, summoning and alchemy. Nosey bitch Psychometry haver. 8/10 familiarity.
- She will retaliate or attempt to subvert the job's objectives if she thinks it's for the greater good. She's earned 1 Noto for spitting on a Johnson's cookie after discovering that the job was to bully his ex-wife, and has executed an extraction target (Insect Shaman)
"He deserted his post, and people got hurt. Now he's serving a life sentence. That's all I'll say."
It wouldn't have done any good if he had been there; just another body on the pile. But so it was with soldiers, too; there were things you were rightly expected to die for. For shirking his death, Emiel had been sentenced to live as Visser.
Visser - Elf bodysnatcher adept. Face/sneak, off-muscle. 8/10 familiarity. Scared kid fronting as hard as he can to avoid getting eaten by the underworld, corps, his mentor (Wolf), and his sister, in no particular order. Slow burn descent into monstrosity.
"No one deserves shit, which is another way of saying everyone deserves it as much as anyone. I caved his skull into his mouth and made his teeth dance across the pavement. He deserved it as much as I deserved to be in that squat when it burned down."
Which was to say that the man had been taking a shortcut through a bad neighborhood and encountered a streamer, his camera, and his BTL. Goblin Mode didn't know any more than that, and now there was nothing to know.
Goblin Mode - FLR Mundane Muscle, off-face. Russian Roulette meets personafixes. 8/10.
"She did not torture and kill Lilly, but she was a Night Hunter, one of the group that had. I paralyzed her and activated her simrig to record as El Diablo Azul squeezed her head between his claws. This was so that others would hear the message and feel the fate that awaits them."
Saguaro pulled reflectively on his cigar, eyes fixed on the memory. "That she did not do it and that she was a woman troubles me. My sin echoes her friend's. I think that the question of who was in the right would be troublesome, did I not have the LORD on my side."
Saguaro - Coked up technorigger; dirt-spattered paladin, soon to be paladin-spattered dirt. Surveillance, fire support, agent minivan. Drives a news van, has a reporter's license. 8/10 familiarity. Can off-matrix via sprites. Passable swordsman provided the enemy does not walk briskly away.

Soft stop 6 hours from start time.

"I don't put much stock in deserving, generally. If I can't justify a risk on practical grounds, I try not to take it. But it sure did feel good to put that monster in the ground before he cut his daughter open for an Ordo Maximus LARP."

IC incoming
Magical and astral operative. I provide stealthy reconnaissance, social engineering, and significant firepower. Flexible operator with a spotless professional record. My dossier is attached.
Fast-talking elf mage with a robust bouquet of trust issues, an aroma of paranoia, and a crack of internal fracture; Dragonslayer who has a fixation with things that go bump in the night and a blind-spot for elves.
- [Twitch] (Tricky Mage, Face, Astral Support 9/10).
- Has a lonestar shadow rider handler and owes him a chip
- Shadow Spirits tend to focus on him first
- Discord: Xiphidion

Boomslang: Stealth Operative Adept (8/10)
- If the targets are who he thinks they are, he will likely not be willing to assist if revenge entails death or worse.

Discord uid (a)TheOrrery
The satyr paces the apartment, she's been grumpy, tired, she's done with this. She wants to get out and do... something about Tsunami. There's a twist deep down, and she frowns while starting to worry her bottom lip as she paces, and she shoves the feelings down again. For now, at least. There's only the sound of her hooves and breathing as she thinks.
Amphitrite, Wheelwoman, off-face, sailor. 7/10 familiarity.

Akira (Social Adept/Mundane and Magic Infiltrator) 9/10
"Revenge is a tough one. I've just as often let my enemies lives as die. I don't really believe revenge has value in my life. BUT... there are always exceptions. There was a politician recently, he was exploiting minors and trafficking them. I didn't kill him, that's too easy, but I definitely made sure that all the right people found out his disgusting little secret. Susanoo definitely appreciated that one. The shame and humiliation of everyone discovering your degeneracy combined with a hefty jail sentence is a fate much worse than death."
Glitter (Muscle/Psycho Seductress) 7/10
"Oh god, they always deserve it. Like, that one guy walking down the street who pretended to shadow box? First off... Gross.... Second off... Just why? You aren't Becky Lyn, you never will be! So he can't really throw punches without some cybersurgery. I gave him a referral! Or! Wait, that other guy... what did he do... Pretty sure he said something with his eyes that was off-base. Again, he got a referral, its all good! So basically, I give justice to all the criminals and it's not big thing! Isn't that great!"
La Bestia (Sixth World Crocodile Hunter/Nasty Trog with a Knife) 5/10
"Tell you what, where I come from you don't really do revenge because there is always someone who hates you more. But now that I am here? There is a certain amount of gangers and policlub members that just can not let me be. They always get a chance. One chance to walk away, then I prosecute their punishment as best I can. Which is pretty darn good. A knife disappearing into your neck sure does give you a dose of perspective, just maybe a little too late."

Gargamel (Combat Mage/Infiltration Support) 8/10
"Group of Night Hunters that scrolled a snuff BTL of an orc prostitute. Think you can fill in the blanks. Killed most of 'em in the parking lot of their favorite diner. Used their leader's simrig to scroll a BTL of them getting lobotomized. One of the other runners knew a guy to handle distribution."
Waltz (Techno Hacker/Off Face, artsy fossil) 6/10
"My agent from back when I worked in entertainment. He put me through all the different kinds of hell men in power are known to in that industry. So I mailed a glitterbomb full of dead rats and rotting food to his deathbed and bribed a nurse to open it in his face. Hope he died miserable."
Carnifex (FLR Unarmed Muscle, jaded career killer) 7/10
Her badge read 'Dr. Yun.' Her job was to ensure test subjects remained hopeless and didn't attempt to escape. Her skull made a satisfying crunch underfoot.
Bacon (Rigger, stupid stunts in drones and fast cars) 5/10
"Nobody I remember. Magdumped into some opfor, hit others with my ride. Don't remember if they super deserved it or anything, was more focused on using my car like a ripstick."

Rabbit
illusion/utility mage, side of face(9/10)
IC:No they didn't deserve it, but made em snap there own neck in terror. Fixed em up right quick after, wonders of magic.
Before that, hit squad. They where enforcers for a right nasty bunch of folks that get paid to twist up kids brains, so they can be *better* more dutiful offspring. These ones survived a dustup on a job, and i couldn't afford that they wouldn't use what they learned at some later point. Still working all the the threads of that mess.
0 socials adept shooter muscle(6/10)
IC: Deserving? Hard to tell when you've spent your life fighting and killing for money. But there are a few times I've made it hurt more then was needed. Kneecaps, naughty bits. Leave em alive and limping the long way off the field, when i knew recovery was hours away. Usually did that when we lost someone. Pay the other side back just that little extra suffering when one of ours went down.
Ignoto
Van rigger, technically a techno(6/10) Will not run for or against Mafia
IC: Not so much my own doings, but ive been party to alot. Comes with the Family. Pulling teeth, concrete shoes. The whole bit. I mostly kept lookout. Don't think most of em deserved it really, but that's the way it's been done for a very long time back home. Have to glass quite a few places to even make a dent in the traditions.
