That sucks brother. Take some time off and recharge the batteries!

Carter secures tools from the junkpile around them and asks Laboni "How much do you weigh? Please be specific. Also, can you handle more than 4 Gs of gravity without passing out or receiving an aneurysm?" After receiving his answer, Carter gets to work increasing both Handling, Armor, and then armaments if time allowed. Better that it run fast then fire missiles Carter thought.
"So is this a situation where we ride in the vehicle as well and build it as we go, or do we build it before hand and then just have a single racer?"
"Everyone has things in their past they don't wish to discuss. Let's leave Mao to hers."
"Well, it's more ideas about combining Endo and Exothermics to use the resulting explosion as a fuel source. In addition..." Carter then started down a line of thinking that includes both magic and technology.
"Do we know the rules on construction of the racing vehicles? I have a few ideas i'd like to try out; some combined designs that I've read about recently."
When in doubt, eat Tacos.
"We have Radaszam 'The Dealmaker' and Fitch left to go." says Carter.
"I have a fair idea, yes." answers Carter.
"I'd prefer we didn't, but it's the best idea that I could think of given the timeframe involved. If you have a better idea, then by all means, I'm happy to entertain it."
"Mao, can you please take Ceren and help her get whatever she wants to take with her?" Once they leave the room, Carter says "The only thing I can think of to help sell this that should work pretty well would be to burn her home down and leave the body trapped inside. If we can switch the dna identifiers, all that will be left will be to tie the body to a chair and pull out the teeth."
Having contributed his fair share to the completion of the group's mission, Carter decided to turn his skills towards obfuscation of her old identity and setting her up a new identity. His years working as a forensic accountant for AbadarCorp, one of the largest companies and one that dealt with endless levels of fraud, had taught him what to look for, so he just simply turned that train of thought around: what would an accounting look for here? How can I make this look like a real person? What did Johannes do to get by his coworkers and completely cover his identity? Carter's mind was awhirl as he accessed the Infosphere and got to work.
"Specifically, we require 1 medium sized female corpse to be specifically delivered to a specific address, as we lack the means to transport said corpse. What are you rates?"
"Let's go with Oddball's idea then. Is it possible to have them deliver?"
"I am all out of dead bodies." Carter says, patting himself for effect.
"As I had said, if you earnestly willing to work with the society, we should be able to protect you. Gather what you need to gather, and we'll help carry anything that you need help with."
"It's complicated, but someone went into the infosphere and took something that alot of people are looking for. We are Starfinders, and we want to make sure that the person who took the information is safe, as one of our leaders is interested in the techniques they used to take this data." "Ultimately, they'll likely be offered a job, if they're willing and earnest." Carter drinks from the mug straight and says "This is good and strong tea. Did you grind and brew it yourself?"
Tell him to cook a sandwich.
"That would be lovely ma'am."
Carter looked around the garden trying to see if he sees anything computer related.
"I meant that if we had someone who knows the culture, that might be an in for us to potentially recruit them."
"That's not what I meant, but good to know."
"Agreed. Is anyone here a skilled hacker?"
"Is there anything that you know about the hacker at this time? Also, this is a gift for you from Zigvigix." Carter produces one of the recordings and gives it to her.
"Shall we go deliver the copy of this recording?" asked Carter.
"If you can use it, I'd vote that you get it."
"I'm not practiced in the use of that heavy of armor. I don't know that I'd be strong enough to wear it on a regular basis. Perhaps we can get it resized for Acoria, as she seems tailor made to draw the ire of our opponents?"
"No one acted like a fool, so I think we'll do just fine."
"It's a perjorative exaggeration Doctor." Carter offers in explanation.
Carter points at the creature, and again 3 darts streak out at it.
Seeing things start to get serious, Carter spins his staff while chanting quietly to himself and a trio of magical darts fly out at the creature.
Carter gestures, and one of the pieces of debris near him flings out towards the creature.
Carter double moves to get within range.
"I'll send mine along the south wall to the far corner, if you want to do the same along the north wall." said Carter, who then did just that.
"I wouldn't say you're the only voice of reason; hell, in my past job, all I did was weigh risk and reward, but I think you have to want to do this job. If someone forces it on you, I don't think it will end well." Carter offers to Yxov. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Upon entering the warehouse, Carter draws out his staff, and then with the press of a button it extends into place. Carter then gestures, and 4 orbs of light go streaking into the warehouse, heading towards the four corners.
"We made a shopping trip, and there IS a need to risk our existences; further, it's clear that being a Starfinder agent involves a great deal of personal risk. I have to ask; if you are this concerned about a single creature in controlled conditions, why would you want to subject yourself to this life filled with danger?"
"Yes, I'm ready to go." He said as he offered the posters to someone at the back of the line
Carter will purchase as many of the recordings as possible.
ya, it's also funny that we dropped our posts basically on top of each other. Wait til you see part 2 of my evil plan tm
Before arriving at he record store, Carter would have the group stop and get some posters of Strawberry Machine Cake and then make signatures on them. Then he'll have the group get in line and will turn to Maonva and say in a normal tone of voice"Man, it was really nice that Strawberry Machine Cake to sign these posters for us. Thank god there wasn't a line. My daughter will be so happy I got this for her!" He will then tell anyone who asks that she was signing things at the store they got the posters from.
"It's not evil per se. Most predators aren't; instead they are simply driven by instinct to hunt and kill."
"Greetings to you as well, Doctor. I would be happy to answer any questions I can, but I'm still sort of new to this; before my powers developed, I was a Forensic Accountant."
"Well, do we want to head to the record store or the warehouse first?"
"No clue, but people name animals the weirdest things."
"What can you tell us about this creature?" Carter asked, while giving Acoria a look with a quirked eyebrow.
"So it sounds like we need to report to each of these faction leaders and see what they wish us to do."
