Session 6 – Spam

On Pallas in St. Gregory, we approach the corporation, ClimaStat, that is the source of the spam messages. We come into the habitat dome and land, then take the hummer to the building.

We decide the best way to figure out going on is to surveil the building. Stitch breaks into one of the buildings nearby with a simple lockpick device. He sees cameras and other security measures, as well as deliveries of office items and such.

Eve is able to lift an ID badge off of a departing IT woman, which she herself could use to gain access to the building. Next she “accidentally” runs into a nerdy-looking analyst, calling him “Johnny” and kissing him madly. He protests, saying that his name’s not Johnny, but doesn’t notice that she’s lifted his badge as well.

Eve and Cam take the disguise of the two people whose IDs were stolen, and gain access to the building. Everyone else stays in the van for the time being. They walk through the building and see that the back entrance has a simple alarm attached to it. On the way back towards the security desk Eve uses her stun baton on one of the security cameras. Quickly Cam disables the lock and alarm on the door and leaves a wire so the others can get in if they need to.

The camera comes back online so Cam and Eve move off. She goes into the restroom and asks Stitch where he thinks the servers are. He thinks they may be in the basement. She comes out of the restroom and tells Cam that they should head to the basement.

Suddenly Raptor and Stitch are attacked by two guards; obviously they have been spotted. Raptor is tasered, but Stitch snipes and kills both of them. Raptor takes off to draw any further attention away from the building.

Cam and Eve continue to the server room in the basement. Cam is not able to log into the system and is marked as a hacker, so he logs out. They decide that they should steal the servers instead and do analysis on them later. Cam grabs a couple of the laptop-sized servers and suddenly they hear footsteps. An IT guy comes in and asks what is going on. Eve strikes him with her stun baton and he goes down. Cam grabs the servers and they find something to put them in, then quickly leave.

On the way up the stairs, a guard appears and demands that they give up the servers they stole. Cam and Eve put the servers down but draw their weapons and fire on the guard. He goes down, and Eve slices his throat. They grab the servers and charge out of the building. The truck takes them away and we seem to have made a clean getaway.

We get back to the ship and decide not to stick around. We leave Pallas immediately.

Eve contacts her fixer, who points her in the direction of a hacker who lives on Mercury. Apparently he will be able to help us out with the servers. We decide to travel to Mercury; the trip takes a day.

On the way, Eve checks the newsfeeds and she sees that the military on Ganymede has released more information about the people who broke into their installation. A very clear photo of Eve (disguised in black) and a fairly clear picture of Raptor were released, as well as the name of Chelle though they have not caught her yet. They believe that our group is still in the Jupiter system, which is obviously erroneous.
