Their gear, markings, and personnal belongings have been taken, replaced by green jumpsuits, longcoat, microbead and a folding knife. They also find a keycard with a fading Aquila on one side and ‘6-9 Galleria’ written on it. After getting to know each other’s name, the group followed the mass of workers to the Railtown Station, where Grendel did communion with a data-port to find they are at the top level of the underhive of Hive Hoolok. He also discovered that everyone in the group is a convicted criminal, sentenced to 5 to 20 years hard labour in Servitown; Hive Hoolok’s Factorium sector. As a rail train arrives, the party boards it, heading for Servitown and answers to their question.+++ [20:03] <@BradGM> ++++++++End transmission++++++++ [20:03] * Calvin` (~calvin@75.111.124.68) has joined #Shadowrun [20:03] * Retrieving #Shadowrun modes...
