[ CLOSED ]

WHO: Kaneki, Dooku, Jacob, Raina, Adachi, Luke, Sabriel, Wanda, Kang, Futaba, Jorah, Charles, Erik, Kanaya, Yusuke, Daryl and Andrew
WHERE: HSTLP LTD facilities, Richmond, Virginia
WHEN: 21st August
WHAT: Heaven Scent raid, baby!
WARNINGS: Violence, destruction, blood, possible death

The address will lead them to a large, nondescript industrial complex filled with manual labourers, including people working the night shift to provide common goods like pre-packed lunches, stuffed animals, handheld fans and other dubiously titled luxury goods. Infiltrators may note that conditions in these factories look less than ideal (the workers sure look tired), but that’s none of their concern for the moment. The address they received will lead them to a large, windowless factory which has the vague label of HSTLP LTD. slathered across it in peeling paint. If they google this name, they won’t find anything - it’s clearly just a name that’s suitably boring enough that people don’t do a whole lot of asking after them!

After some observation they will notice a large covered truck drive through the garage, and as they peer through the closing door, they will see a number of people filing out of it, as if in a daze. We encourage you to include as many other players in this as possible, because they will then be tasked with storming the factory to destroy their DNA samples and all remaining clones in various stages of growth.

Upon infiltration, they will see that unlike other Heaven’s Scent locations, they haven’t bothered keeping up the facade of offices; this place is laboratories, all the way down, complete with imPocreats in tanks (similar to the ones found in OTO, fancy that!), and a variety of vague humanoid figures kept in tanks. Some of these humanoid figures have notable mutations both like and unlike imPorts; some varieties have several eyes, for example, while others are humanoid with an assortment of scales that have overtaken their face, covering their eyes and nostrils, not unlike a splice between one of the draconic imPorts and a human being. Some of these clones are in the beginning stages of being born, and are curled in the fetal position, while others are still little more than small clusters of cells. Regardless, these clones are largely non-sentient, and the ones that are sentient are no more sentient than one would expect to find in a household pet.

But, of course, there are complications. On top of your typical security guards and security systems (there are cameras, motion sensors, etc.), Heavens Scent has a very particular kind of defense. Which is to say: more clones! Unlike the ones currently roaming the streets, these clones are largely dissimilar to imPorts and are completely hairless and free of any defining features such as birthmarks, scars, etc., and are dressed simply in grey jumpsuits. While they do have access to artillery, they have something better: access to the powers outlined HERE. You may use the powers outlined and mix and match at your convenience - whatever happens to serve the narrative best, we sign off on.

There will be a team of fifteen scientists in the building as well. Ten of them will be useless and easily killed/detained, but five of them seem to have experimented on themselves. Their descriptions go as thus:

SCIENTIST ONE:
Has black, painful looking markings that stretch out from either corner of his mouth towards his ears. The inside of his mouth looks as though he has gained frostbite repeatedly, and all his speech is slurred. He is capable of breathing fire and poisonous gas.

SCIENTIST TWO: Has flaps of skin growths over his body, and a large tumour over his right eye. He has regenerative abilities and, it seems, his body regenerates too quickly for him to control. In order to kill him, he will need to be either burned alive or beheaded.

SCIENTIST THREE: Has growths coming out of her neck that periodically open and close - think gills! She has the ability of a power nullification field, and should be disposed of as quickly as possible.

SCIENTIST FOUR: Essentially looks like she’s been on some very serious steroids for a number of years! She has enough superstrength to lift a car above her head, and is not above throwing entire tanks at foes, even if there’s still a clone inside. Oops!

SCIENTIST FIVE: Has no essential physical differences that can be seen with the naked eye, but has powers of mind control, and can turn imPorts against each other. Again, this is an individual best disposed of early!

They will not, notably, find the CEO here or, in fact, anywhere in America - she left the country well before all of this nonsense began.

Finally, they will be given the okay by the government to storm the base. They will be instructed to keep destruction and death to a minimum but it will be very, very heavily inferred that should it be necessary to destroy the whole base and everyone inside it, they will face no penalization because of it.

There will be workers in the factories surrounding them. More of them will be present during the day, but they all have night shift workers as well. Should the fight exit the factory itself, they will be instructed to keep casualties to a minimum, and to evacuate those premises if necessary.

[Andrew is mainly providing back-up and destroying all the evidence and records that they've already gathered copies of or found to be useless. His methods range between crushing things with his bare hands or burning them with his solar energy.

Sabriel's words draw him from his destruction.]


That's not surprising. Greedy bastards. Once they get a taste of power they want more. What were their other goals? Aside from the obvious.

Heaven Scent's, or the OTO's? As far as I can tell, the former wanted to make a profit, the latter... I can't really say. To perform their experiments no matter the consequences?
