Roll 'a' Role: Blade Runner - Session 2

This is the first part of the published scenario pack Electric Dreams by Free League presented in the Starter Set as written by Tomas Härenstam and Joe LeFavi. Blade Runner and its scenario's are really designed for only 1-4 player characters, my group has 6 (plus me, the current GM). We get around this by standard cop procedure, they partner up.

This session we have five detectives: Hardee (RichardB), Teransky (MarkW), Warkowski (LeeL), Antoney (PeteR) and Lewis (GaryG).

Thu 14th May 2037 Night

A shooting takes place at the Snake Pit involving two Nexus-9 Blade Runners LH3-7.93-Leah and SN9-1.48-Sandor. Sandor is killed and Leah goes missing.

Fri 15th May 2037 Morning

The Detectives on-duty yesterday and involved in the The Maid Did It Report are given commendations from Wallace Corps for their quick work in absolving the suspected Nexus-9 involvement in quick time allowing them to control the media output of the story.

Deputy Chief Holden then reproaches them for slovenly paperwork and states that everyone in the investigation should be filling out shift reports and should sign/date and record the shift appropriately.

He then briefs them on the shooting last night.

Warkowski stays at the LAPD building making checks on ESPER via the mainframe and to the RIT Lab where Sandor's body is being processed.

Hardee and Tarankski visit Wallace Corp meeting Quell in hopes of getting more info on the Leah model. She is happy to help one of the people that so helped out the company in yesterdays affair. This re-iterates the need for a quick response before the tabloids get hold of the story. She shows them Leah's late two baseline test, she failed both, suggests they look into her memories.

Lewis and Antony visit the Snake Pit and interview Taffey Lewis (the club owner) and Iris (the dancer on stage at the time of the shooting). They discover that there was a crowd fight before the shooting with no one paying attention to the attack but focusing on anti replicant taunting (Iris is a replicant).

Antony reports Hardee for anti-Replicant behaviour and lack of respect to his superiors.
