Handing over a Toxic Shaman to the Draco Foundation, How would you suggest I allow my PC's to do so? Options Track this topic Email this topic Print this topic Download this topic Subscribe to this forum Display Modes Outline Switch to: Standard Switch to: Linear+

So my PC's are about to take on 4 Toxic Shamans courtesy of the Redneck adventures.

I figured if they are smart enough - or if I give them a hint; they might just hand one or all of them to the Draco foundation for mega muulah!

Two of the PC are SINners so at least they are on the grid in some shape or form.

Other than the problem of keeping the shaman sedated and getting said body across the border from the NAN back to Seattle (its more of a Redskin adventure); what would you recommend the concequences of getting paid Xmillion nuyen?

My thoughts are simply that the characters receiving the dosh would be flagged if not just by the Draco foundation but by others on a watch list of some sort.

But also, what questions do you think the Draco foundation would ask other than the obvious "Where did you find him, what was he up to and why were you there to stop him" kind questions?

Would there be any factors that you could think to reduce the award (no bounty hunter licence or some such (though I don't think the Draco foundation actually requires this)).

I'd say it's up to you to decide.

But there are still a few things to take into account. The DF is a public charity, not an extraterritorial company. It has to comply to UCAS law, and audits.

I'm not sure if it would be lawful for an organization like the Draco Foundation to offer a bounty for the capture of people. I don't think the DF has the right to detain SINners against their will, no matter if they're toxic/blood shamans. If the shaman is a SINless, it's less of a problem, it might still be technically illegal, but nobody will care.

Still, the DF might prefer the person handling over the shaman to have a SIN, because a financial audit might raise an eyebrow or two if they discover that a few millions were used to buy certified credsticks for unknown purposes. And I don't think they can issue real SIN.

That could actually be a way for the DF to avoid paying the PC, if you want to take that route. "Sorry, but we can only offer rewards to SINners.", and have them check and refuse fake SINs. They can then negociate a far lower price with the PCs.

But if you want the PCs to be paid in full, it's possible (and likely) that the DF has a system to fund black ops and illegal transactions, and can use it to pay the runners the promised reward. As I wrote, it's up to you.
