Active Research and Interesting Pursuits

by Doctor Ella Lister

I had heard rumors whispered of an experimental treatment moving into human trials at the university hospital.
 
As I am always researching and keeping as current as possible in all medical procedures, I would of course have been curious as to the treatment particulars regardless. The fact that there are people calling the treatment 'playing God' - as though medical science hasn't been since its inception - provided all the motivation I require to actively pursue this information now, rather than wait for the study results to be published.
 
Through the efforts of the local Nosferatu, namely Colin Hurt, it was discovered: Deborah Hanover Is a visiting scientist who came with her own research team. Her process is very labor intensive and she has been granted and entire treatment suite that consists of 2 treatment rooms, a research facility, and a secure processing room. The protests have cause the hospital to up security for the Private suite, however there was relatively high security internally before the protests got troublesome.
 
I went to the hospital to perform my own recognizance, at which point I discovered the suite is located in a basement level with two university affiliated guards stationed outside - identified as Officer Chatham Sargasso and 2nd Lt. Rutledge Horner. I attempted to cultivate Officer Chatham as a source by leaving my contact information with him, based on a positive physical response he had to my form, which he has not attempted to use to date; this is only a little surprising as while I am particularly comely, my reserved personality tends to show through despite my best efforts. They did mention there is additional, private, security located within the suite, which is very problematic.
 
Due to the nature of the obstacles I am facing - namely that my current favorable kindred are unable to assist in the physical obtainment of access - I have decided on a more nuanced plan of action.
 
I have again contacted the local Nosferatu - Colin Hurt and Daniel Cooper - requesting any information they can find on the individuals identified, with special focus on Dr. Hanover. If I can meet her in person, I can attempt to infiltrate the suite via invitation and, if she is particularly unwilling, I could force compliance through more forthright methods. As a secondary plan, I will see if any kindred in the area would like to infiltrate the protests with the eye to giving them the location of the suite and causing enough of a disturbance that the suite can be cleared and access obtained that way.
 
I am ever hopeful that a more nuanced approach will work, creating ghouls or using other clan connections for protection is not particularly ideal; I am not completely adverse, however.
