Played a short little game last night.
Ryan received a package from the vampires good for 3 free months of food. It seems a member one of the lesser racket operators was taking a little too much off the top and was now beyond his useful existance. The package contains the details of the mark including home address, vehicle, base of operations, and a photo. Ryan packs up his Barret light-50... Russel Barret is the hit his is also a vampire.
The layout of buildings around Russ' condo is pretty sparse, but there is one hotel facing the windows of his 8th floor living room window. Ryan spends the day watching Russ. He follows the hit to his bar/brothel downtown. Ryan spends the night in the bar casing the joint and ultimately a couple hours talking to a hooker. He decides the condo is a better spot. During the day he acquires some special Incindary rounds.
Ryan catches some sleep. At about 1 PM he calls Christian for some help setting a C4 charge on the target's vehicle. Christian motors up in his Ford and brings his "bag". The underground parking garage is relatively secure, but there is a fire exit. Christian examines the smooth featureless metal exterior of the fire door. In a smooth moment with a thin strip of metal he pops the door in a couple of seconds (rolled a 20 Disable Device).
Moving inside the stair well is easy. The garage itself has several stationary cameras. By crawling around the edges the pair make it around to Russ' black caddy. Christian has 4 lbs of C4 with him. Ryan says "Use it all." Christian shrugs and sets a shaped charge under the drivers side that will be triggered by radio. Christian's opinion is, "This will turn anyone inside the car into chunky salsa, but won't destroy the vehicle." On the way out Christian inadvertantly stands up in front of a camera. Ryan gripes and works his way up to the automated security tapes and removes the offending tape. Christian heads home after giving Ryan the radio control.
Ryan sets up watch again.
About 30 minutes after sunset, Russ pops out of his bedroom and sits with his body guard in the living room. Ryan is locked and loaded. The rifle will make a heck of a noise, but it's the best chance of a single shot kill. At this distance making a head shot is too iffy. Ryan targets center mass. If Russ is a full vampire a single shot (Massive Damage Threshold save) will be unlikely. But if he's just on the edge, it might still work. He pulls the trigger.
Ryan deals a cool 29 hp damage. Russ fails his massive damage save and promptly explodes in virus laden mist. Much hiliarity ensues.
Russ's bodyguards loot his apartment and bolt in the caddy. Ryan resists the urge to blow them up. The rifle shot was heard for blocks, but a single shot doesn't cause much comotion. Ryan "ghosts" in to the apartment and loots the wall safe the 2 mooks couldn't open.
Back at the ranch, Ryan cuts open the save to gain a +2 wealth bonus in cash.
Interesting NPC I need to flesh out... Anita.
"Anita" is the vampire soup kitchen manager. She is an old woman dressed in young goth. She is also an old vampire. The soup kitchen imports human cargo and chains them to poles in small stalls. Vampires on the meal plan can show up from 2 AM to 4 AM to feed. The organization takes care of the bodies.
