I am trying to find the name of a module... actually, I am not sure if it is a published one, or a homebrew. I found this reference to it on the TV Tropes Wiki. It sounds like a blast though, and I would love to find information on it.
QUOTE | On the GM side of things, a certain Shadowrun GM has a scenario involving a seemingly simple data recovery mission in the summer home of a corporate executive. Said 1400 square foot summer home has DNA scanners on every possible entry-point and one behind every light in the house. (for those smartypants trolls/orcs thinking breaking open a wall will not activate it) Upon detecting a foreign entity it activates automated knife-hurling defenses hidden inside every cubbyhole, wall, cabinet door, regular door, and nearly every piece of furniture. Some of them have to be passed more than once to activate, ensuring the intruders are trapped inside and separated. Unhidden ones that can vary more degree-wise as to where they aim rise out of the sinks, fountains, and toilets like periscopes. The only way around this insanity is to shut down the CPU for the entire house, but every single area has a tar pit piggybacking another tar pit, path to the CPU looking like a blockaded train depot. On the upswing, the surprise twist is he was formerly a Mormon priest before becoming a high-powered CEO. The knives aren't large enough to kill even with most shots to the head or brain, and are swimming in tranquilizers, you have to be very unlucky to actually die. The downside (for females) is that most wives are former runners. By the way, the scanners also pinpoint weaknesses in whatever armor your character is wearing, for fully covered characters the house adjusts aiming towards that point. If you make it to the hidden second basement, you'll see a giant computer running all this madness behind bulletproof/waterproof glass. One of the loonier missions this runner/editor participated in. And lost his character to. (as it was female) |
