Part 2: Party Like it's 2077
Part 2: Party like it's 2077
The military base was re-purposed into a settlement by Alan Ross, a member of the union. Alan is currently away on business, so his son, Alexei, organized a party with some friends who are fellow "Union Kids".
The PCs can arrive from whichever side they want - the settlement is very flashy and they can safely scout it from a distance. To get to the bunker, they will need to open the Bunker Entrance - unfortunately, it is currently closed.
Power Charges
To open the Bunker Entrance, the PCs will need to divert power from the party to the magnetically-locked blast door.
Each asterisk next to a POI's name means 1 charge can be redirected from that POI to the bunker entranceTo open the door, the PCs need 3 charges.
However, if they ruin the party, they will attract Alexei's wrath!
POI: Bunker Entrance
A sloped structure made out of concrete, with a massive, metallic blast door. Clearly the entrance to an underground bunker.
🔎 Blast Door: It uses a magnetic lock, which means it could be forced open by applying a strong enough electrical current.
G or T (DC 12): the door can be forced open by hacking it, lockpicking it, or prying it open, but doing so is extremely difficult.
POI: Refurbished Barracks**
A set of 6 military barracks which were re-purposed into luxury accomodations. Each barrack has a sign above its door. From top left to bottom right, they read: "master bedroom", "conference room", "guest suite 1", "kitchen", "bathroom", and "guest bedroom 2"
It is possible to get 1 power charge from the top row of barracks, and 1 power charge from the bottom row.
🔎 Occupants: Each barrack potentially has people in it that might make a fuss if electricity is cut from their barrack:
-Master bedroom: three party-goers are playing video games on the couch
-Kitchen: two cooks are working hard
-Bathroom: a couple party-goers are puking in the showers due to being inebriated
-Guest rooms: a couple party-goers are napping on the beds
Only the conference room is empty.
POI: Dancefloor***
Dozens of rich kids are dancing here. Marcus runs a bar and Marcella is at the DJ table.
🔎 Power Supply: It is only possible to redirect 1 charge before the party gets ruined.
POI: Swimming Pool*
A bunch of rich kids are having a pool party here. There are floating pool trays with food and beverages on them.
🔎 Fountains: The fountains each have a battery. If taken out, the pool party is ruined, but these batteries can be used to gain 1 power charge.
POI: Warehouse***
The largest building here - with walls made of 3m tall sheet metal, topped by a row of opaque glass windows which circle the entire building. A purring electrical noise is coming from inside.
🔎 Outer Wall: There are a few loose panels on the side near the fence: a small enough character (Grit lower than 2) could crawl into the building.
🔎 Generator: There are 2 unarmed mechanics working on the reactor - it's working over capacity, and without their continuous oversight, it risks shutting down after a couple minutes.
T Generator (DC 10): The generator can be made to go into overdrive, which grants every location connected to it 3 power charges for 1 minute. After that, the reactor shuts down and the party is ruined.
POI: Mercs' Campfire
The mercenary company Mark works for is not allowed to sleep on the premises, so they've set up a camp just outside the fence and are enjoying a nice nightly campfire. Groans are coming from one of the tents.
🔎 Groans: Earlier tonight, Alexei shot one of the mercenaries in the leg for spilling a drink on him. The mercenary is undergoing surgery without anaesthesia.
POI: Parking Lot
A number of sports cars are parked here - they belong to the party-goers. It is strange to see people using sports cars: the roads haven't been maintained for 20 years, so they're full of bumps and potholes. Given the choice between those and a buggy, most people would choose a buggy.
POI: 2nd Entrance
This entrance is used mostly by the staff. If Mark is with the party, he can let them in through here.
POI: Guest Barracks
Each barrack contains 10 bunk beds, for a total of 20 mattresses. They're intended for the guests to sleep in but don't have many accommodations. beyond this.
POI: Outer Fence
A 3m tall wire fence, with barbs at the top, some projectors emitting light around the camp, and some automated turrets. Climbing the fence safely would take around 5 minutes.
🔎 Circling the fence: There is a hole in the fence, behind one of the Refurbished Barracks, just large enough for someone to crawl in.
