This came up in the game I ran last night, and it had me almost paralytic with laughter.
First a little background. Since a bunch of my players couldn't make the game, the team was down to two runners, the Face and the Ninja, and they were tasked with infiltrating a Yakuza run casino to access the secure server that was hidden there and steal some pay data. They secured invites just fine, but were stumped for a way to fool security long enough to reach the secret room where the server was hidden.
So the Face is reading the gear section and says "Hey, Neurostun is pretty cheap, and it won't take me long to get some." I ask if he is suggesting somehow pumping enough stun gas into the building to incapacitate everyone inside, and he says "no, just the guys in the office next to the hidden server room." Turning to the Ninja player he continues, "your guy is pretty flexible, isn't he? So we'll hide a neurostun grenade up his arse, and get ourselves taken to the main office by accusing each other of cheating at Mah Jong. When we're there *makes fart noise* and at least two guards, and the Yakuza boss, are out for the count, and we're right next to the server room."
Discussion then continued about making gas grenades in the shape of butt plugs, and culminated in a graphic description of the ninja bending over in the loo while the face prepped an aerodynamic neurostun grenade.
I'd like to say this was atypical behaviour, but I'd probably be lying.

yeah so? O.o
sounds like a fun game, i'd be happy if something like that ever happened with my group . .
but usually we spend 2 to 3 hours OUT OF GAME planning, and in the end my character usually says:"get me my bigger gun, i'm going in"

Using the rectal cavity to smuggle things, while funny, is actually a time-honoured method. Not everyone can afford cyber compartments or skin pockets.
However, I would point out to the players (or not...) that Neurostun is a contact vector and so the farting player will be as incapacitated as anyone else in the room.

That is classic. I must remember that. Isn't there a piece of Bio that allows you to do that? Somesort of prison kit?

There I thought that's only my group's style...
A really good and cunning plan I'd say

Whatever floats your boat...
If you're using Neurostun, invest in a few tabs of high-rating antidote. Even so, it may partially affect you at the same time it drops your targets.

The second grenade is usually much easier to fit in than the first.

Only if they're of the fragmentation or high-explosive type you usually see in movies. Grenades that don't need to blow stuff up (like smoke or chemical gas-releasing ones) are often safe to "detonate" in your hand. Some of them get a little too hot to handle, though.

I wish I had a gaming group that was that crative, guess it comes with being a n00b.
As far as I know don't nuero-stun grenades and other smoke-type grenades just kind of like...spew/leak gas after the pin is pulled?
If the GM is benevolent, he might let them get away with rebreathers/heavy clothes... I might,

Yeah, with the grenade nestled in some really sensitive thin skin no less.

For those who wish to get really drunk, they do the reverse beer bong up the butt. The intestinal lining soaks things up like a mother-f'er and doesn't really dilute things like the upper portion of the digestive track. Two or three beers up the butt could kill you with alcohol poisoning just to give some perspective of relative potency as compared to coming from the other end. Now, imagine a contact vector made to be absorbed through the skin being absorbed by the intestines. That ninja, my friend, is dead.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the plan was probably to remove the grenade prior to detonation. Otherwise... O.o

I don't even want to know how you came up with/know about this "reverse beer bong" technique. And as for the possibility that you really do know about this, all I can say is that I've been to college, and I honestly can't say I've ever heard of anyone doing such a thing.

I have sadly. I first heard of this on the TV show Manswers they where talking about how can you get drunk quicker. My answer was switch from beer to hard liquor their answer was to do a handstand and pour beer up their ass.

Which explains why there is suppositories as drug delivery concept. Though, really, who really wants to stick that beer bottle up their butt... wait, never mind, I never asked because I don't want the answer.
Hmmm... so prior to entering prison some folks will opt for the enlarged rectum surgery so they can smuggle more items in , maybe getting that handout pistol and enough bullets for an escape?

The solution for not dying by the 'fart of death' is obviously a plastic bag and some duct tape. I leave the rest to your imagination.

I was thinknig just stick the grenade in a condom. Boom, you're protected, it goes in easier (lubricated anyone?) and still lets the gas come fuming out.

Sep 19 2008, 06:24 PM
Tarantula, that of course assumes the gas / chemicals in the grenades doesn't eat through the condom. Then again, you also have the heat generated from the reaction.
I suppose you say the smuggler has a hot ass...

Special chemical-resistant condom, then? Who knows what kind of nasty awakened STDs they have in the sixth world? Maybe there's already such a product being sold in 2070.

I've been to college, I've seen the experimentation, but this I can honestly say I got from the aforementioned tv show "Manswers." I only saw one or two episodes because I don't watch TV regularly, but this is the quality of knowledge I found on that gem. I was just happy I could find a thread where it could be applied.

You could pretty reasonably have a mini gas grenade in the guy's butt, wrapped in some sort of chemical-resistant fabric. The thing is, though, that someone could have a gas grenade in their skin pocket or otherwise concealed, and yakuza and casinos are both pretty security-minded, so there would probably be some kind of densitometric scan or something that would be a problem there. But if not, or if there's a way around that, it's a pretty awesome plan.
I always assume everyone at a secure site has a biomonitor that would alert security to their sudden loss of consciousness, though.
