Old Odaiba

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

This nightclub in the Minato Prefecture bustles with activity. The dull droning of the electronic music is near deafening, with particular beats causing physical tremors. It's dark and smoky, illuminated only with neon lighting from the occasional light fixture or flamboyant patron wearing the obligatory cyberpunk apparel. The building itself is built out of old industrial equipment, the door is an old plow from a bulldozer and the light fixtures are plunged into wrecking balls.

The club obviously tries to cash in on Minato's reputation as an industrial district, but the island surrounding it is a thriving tourism and leisure district, and most of the clientele are rich kids coming to blow off steam and complain about their lucky heritage.

Being educated about the black market, however, you know that the club has close ties to the Shibuya Underground Market. The bouncer subtly nods to a man sitting in a booth by himself as you enter.

Always

Always

Talk to the bartender.

Old Odaiba's bartender has been working at the place for decades, and he knows what's going on around here.

Pay a visit to the man in the booth.

You figure you may as well go over and say hello to the man. What could it hurt?

Leave.

You decide not to stick around.


You look around for the bar.

Elevated on a giant wheel, the bar spins slowly around the building, but you quickly locate it with its bright yellow "Warning: Drinks!" signage. A man who's had too much to drink falls off one of the stools as the wheel turns, and you take his place.

You wander around the nightclub.

You approach the bartender.

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

The gruff old man just offers you a drink. You're certain he knows something about the underground, though.

Always

Always

Leave.

There's nothing for you here right now, and your time could be better spent elsewhere.

Ask about a safehouse.

Approach the bartender and ask if he has somewhere you can stay until your pursuers give up on you.

Shibuya Underground Market

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

Shibuya is the place to go in Tokyo for black-market dealings and more, with its thriving Underground Market consisting of a complex web of merchants and various petty criminals working together to provide whatever people want without attracting the attention of the World League.

Always

Always

Buy weapons.

Even though weapons are heavily controlled in World League territory, you can still find a few of the more available types of gear here.

Buy a CHIMERA kit.

It's not hard to find someone who's willing to sell a CHIMERA kit without the required control module inspection or the background check in this crowd, the only challenge is figuring out who's selling a real one.

Rob a mark.

Luck

Watch for the fall of a card.

A matter of luck: it could go either way.

The nice thing about committing robberies at a black market is that nobody calls the police. The better thing about Shibuya Underground Market is that there's no unified organized crime ring running the show, so as long as you steer clear of the Yakuza you should be fine.

The Luck test here simply provides additional randomness, rather than necessarily indicating a bad outcome.


Met the vendor.

It doesn't take you long to find the guy you're looking for, a middle aged man in an over-the-top doctor costume. He immediately begins to offer you a CHIMERA kit for 1000 credits.

You're currently in Shibuya and something interesting has happened.

You go about your business at the Shibuya Underground Marketplace.

Purchase a CHIMERA kit for 1000 credits.

The spam message popped up on your phone even before you saw the ostentatious "Doctor Aug" salesman. Ignoring his over-the-top style, you approach.

"The finest CHIMERA nanites in Tokyo, five doses for just 1000!" The man practically screams above the noise of the crowd, trying to attract customers.

Always

Always

Walk away.

This deal isn't so great, and you're not sure you can trust the man.

Buy the CHIMERA kit.

It might be a risk to trust this vendor, but the ability to augment yourself would help you enough right now that it's worth the chance his goods might be fake.

            1000
            You need 1,000 x CCredits  (you have 25)

            1000
            Unlocked with 1,000 x CCredits  - you have 25


You leave.

Street vendor.

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

You see a vendor who wandered off into a dark corner of the market. You look around and nobody seems to be around, so you could jump him and take his stuff.

Always

Beat him up and take his stuff.

A chancy challenge

It wouldn't be hard to sneak up behind the merchant and knock him out, then take his stuff.

Walk away.

Maybe you don't want to prey on the weak today.


You leave.

Old Odaiba

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

This nightclub in the Minato Prefecture bustles with activity. The dull droning of the electronic music is near deafening, with particular beats causing physical tremors. It's dark and smoky, illuminated only with neon lighting from the occasional light fixture or flamboyant patron wearing the obligatory cyberpunk apparel. The building itself is built out of old industrial equipment, the door is an old plow from a bulldozer and the light fixtures are plunged into wrecking balls.

The club obviously tries to cash in on Minato's reputation as an industrial district, but the island surrounding it is a thriving tourism and leisure district, and most of the clientele are rich kids coming to blow off steam and complain about their lucky heritage.

Being educated about the black market, however, you know that the club has close ties to the Shibuya Underground Market. The bouncer subtly nods to a man sitting in a booth by himself as you enter.

Always

Always

Talk to the bartender.

Old Odaiba's bartender has been working at the place for decades, and he knows what's going on around here.

Pay a visit to the man in the booth.

You figure you may as well go over and say hello to the man. What could it hurt?

Leave.

You decide not to stick around.


You approach the man.

The smoke and lights of the room are particularly blinding by this booth, and you notice a bit of white noise interference over the already booming bass of the music.

You wander around the nightclub.

Buy weapons.

Even though weapons are heavily controlled in World League territory, you can still find a few of the more available types of gear here.

Buy a CHIMERA kit.

It's not hard to find someone who's willing to sell a CHIMERA kit without the required control module inspection or the background check in this crowd, the only challenge is figuring out who's selling a real one.

Rob a mark.

Luck

Watch for the fall of a card.

A matter of luck: it could go either way.

The nice thing about committing robberies at a black market is that nobody calls the police. The better thing about Shibuya Underground Market is that there's no unified organized crime ring running the show, so as long as you steer clear of the Yakuza you should be fine.

The Luck test here simply provides additional randomness, rather than necessarily indicating a bad outcome.

Shibuya Underground Market

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

Shibuya is the place to go in Tokyo for black-market dealings and more, with its thriving Underground Market consisting of a complex web of merchants and various petty criminals working together to provide whatever people want without attracting the attention of the World League.

Always

Always

Buy weapons.

Even though weapons are heavily controlled in World League territory, you can still find a few of the more available types of gear here.

Buy a CHIMERA kit.

It's not hard to find someone who's willing to sell a CHIMERA kit without the required control module inspection or the background check in this crowd, the only challenge is figuring out who's selling a real one.

Rob a mark.

Luck

Watch for the fall of a card.

A matter of luck: it could go either way.

The nice thing about committing robberies at a black market is that nobody calls the police. The better thing about Shibuya Underground Market is that there's no unified organized crime ring running the show, so as long as you steer clear of the Yakuza you should be fine.

The Luck test here simply provides additional randomness, rather than necessarily indicating a bad outcome.


Met the vendor.

It doesn't take you long to find the guy you're looking for, a middle aged man in an over-the-top doctor costume. He immediately begins to offer you a CHIMERA kit for 1000 credits.

You're currently in Shibuya and something interesting has happened.

The spam message popped up on your phone even before you saw the ostentatious "Doctor Aug" salesman. Ignoring his over-the-top style, you approach.

"The finest CHIMERA nanites in Tokyo, five doses for just 1000!" The man practically screams above the noise of the crowd, trying to attract customers.

Always

Always

Walk away.

This deal isn't so great, and you're not sure you can trust the man.

Buy the CHIMERA kit.

It might be a risk to trust this vendor, but the ability to augment yourself would help you enough right now that it's worth the chance his goods might be fake.


You leave.

Leave.

You hear them keep arguing.

"No, that's not right at all!" "Well, it's what you said yesterday! Get your stories straight!"

They are oblivious to your approach.

This shows that you're in a random encounter.

The argument draws your attention.

This lets us know where you are in your mission.
