My team has stumbled across what looks like an ill-bound demon; I'm not much for the esoteric, so I couldn't tell you what exactly this thing is in Shadowrun terms. Suffice to say there is much muttering about the urgency of releasing it. We have our doubts as to the long-term profitability of taking that advice.
My question is, what demons exist in Shadowrun, and does the Draco Foundation offer any canonical bounties on ganking them? |

I am pretty sure that, given the other bounties offered by the Draco Foundation, they will gladly pay a nice price for this peculiar item of yours.
Good idea to contact them and do a price check. |

There are any number of unknown spirits out there. For all you know it could just be a toxic spirit of man (which does have a bounty on it). If the Draco Foundation won't pay out, there is still Republic de Quebec as well. They pay bounties on all sorts of Awakened critters. |

Prove it didn't come from Quebec. well, either you're going to have to smuggle it across the border, which is likely going to cost you (probably more than they're paying unless they've legitimately had a problem with that specific spirit and have a specific bounty on that spirit). alternately, i *suppose* you could try to get it through airport security and customs without anyone noticing... good luck with that. (on a side note, if you have somehow managed to craft a device that can contain a (powerful?) (free?) spirit against it's will, then i have to say... forget about selling the spirit, sell the jar) |
