OOC:
At the risk of speaking for everyone, I think each of our characters would research what we could about the venue, get our gear ready

OOC:
ugh maybe only two speedheals then

OOC:
State any actions you want to take in the interest of research

OOC:
Numa will research possible escape routes and maybe hire a rental car for the night.

OOC:
You guys have a dedicated driver, Carlisle. He's your wheelman. Good for pick up/drop off but any additional action (high speed chase/evasion, gun fights, etc) mean you have to cut him in on the pay out 125¥ each.
Numa downloads local street maps of the meet up area and spends time going over the possible avenues of egress.

sergei would talk to his friends and acquaintances to feel out whether there was buzz about the auction. He would pay special attention to whether other edgerunners were hired. He would encourage his teammates to do the same.

He would also have Charlise take him by the venue during the day so he could put eyes on and figure out the best physical security boundaries, lines of sight from other roofs etc.

Flesher would want a list of everyone invited to the auction. Not sure if she could get that but she’d likely just ask for it using the reasoning that we need to know if someone unapproved tries to get in.
Then she would start pulling info on each that maybe used as leverage. What drugs they fancy. Who’s their sidepiece. What upgrades and what chrome have they installed. What weapons they normally carry.

Numa could do that guest list work.

OOC:
Ok, let me get streetwise checks from Serj and Numa and a Local Expert check from Numa

Once Numa is out of the shower and dressed in a fresh neon-striped business suit with a black dress shirt underneath, he pulls out his cyberdeck and begins his research.

Streetwise (COOL) - (1d10+6)

(10) + 6 = 16

Local Expert (Your Home) - (1d10+9)

(1) + 9 = 10

Sergei asks his buddies:

"Eh, Comrades. Any big job tonight?"

Brett researches the area for Arasaka associated buildings or businesses.

OOC:
Local Expert check from Mr Brett plz
Serj comes up empty on chummers that know anything, apparently the event has a fairly exclusive guest list. When he stops by the venue however he is able to see that there is a parkwide security camera system as well as two maintenance spider robots that habitually patrol the grounds picking up litter and trimming hedges. He does see that there are a number of people using the grounds for relaxation during the day.

Numa manages to find out that there are five fixers, well connected individuals of which he has never heard who were invited to the meet. Of specific interest he learns that none of the fixers invited were acquaintances of Vikktor, it seems like his assistant wanted to put as much obfuscation into the sale as possible, no chance of buyer's remorse leading back to him.

Although you are certain Arasaka owns a great deal of property throughout Japan, Mr Brett is unable to learn anything useful about the area around the meet up.

"Well I got fuck all. Hey, what kind of boom booms do you all want for play time? How does a rocket launcher sound?"

OOC:
Unless anyone wants to buy small arms, ammo or drugs (or mundane gear; drone, grapel gun, whatev) then I will fast forward to the night time.
