abstract
  • After noticing several unexplained deaths in the city during certain television broadcasts, our team goes out to investigate. They decide to tap in to the emergency line, to quickly identify new cases. One soon arrives, as a woman calls in about her husband. As a complication however, one of four shapechangers that are noticed patrolling the city heads straight for the site. The team, going in their shiny black helicopter, drop off Salisbury to intercept it while the team goes and investigate the site itself. Salisbury's interception goes relatively well (in that he doesn't get murdered) - after slowing the shapechanger (a young woman) down, he brings here, peacefully, to the site (to the chagrin of some of the members). Meanwhile, the investigators calm down a devastated wife, while noticing a peculiar urn with an entropic dimensional taint. The urn suddenly shatters by itself, and it becomes clear that it has something to do with the recent events. Upon investigation, Taylor finds a "Made in Nijmegen" mark on the urn. Once Salisbury arrives at the site with the shapechanger, there is an uneasy exchange of information. After a while, the teams depart, each with samples of the urn to further examine. Back at the construct, the team can't find any company in Nijmegen that could produce the urns, except for perhaps one - a plate factory owned by, well, themselves. Intrigued, they decide to investigate, but not before meeting the shapechangers to discuss matters. Not wanting the shapechangers to come along to Nijmegen, our team offers to handle that matter themselves, while the shapechanger take care of a local distributor - a mr Texado - with local low-running technocrats running interference for them. In Nijmegen, the team finds an initially warm welcome, as the local manager greets them. Quickly they notice something wrong, though, as he is suspiciously unaware of what goes on on floor one. The team decides to investigate, only to be denied access to the floor - even though they're supposed to be in full control of the building. They shift into gear, hacking the elevator while ordering the assault team (which is now forbidden from entering the grounds) to breach and take the ground floor by force. On the first floor, they are "greeted" by four armed men at gunpoint - men determined to be under the influence of entropic EDE's. After a tense few moments, the team strikes in a coordinated fasion, taking out all four without issue. Heading on to the room where they were being escorted to, they find a lone Syndicate technocrat, who appears to have been the mastermind of the operation. He turns out not to be a match for the full team, however, and is quickly eliminated. The team orders the building evacuated and destroyed.
