The Stuffed Dragon

The stuffed dragon the was given to Diana now becomes a living pseudo dragon companion to Diana.

Getting into the Hard Drive

During the last session, the team took a hard drive from a computer that they are going to try to gain access to. Will give Seardon time to pursue this issue and contact resources that might be able to assist him with the problem. It will take in game time for him to get additional information regarding this hard drive.

The Hard Drive

The hard drive in question was stolen from a remote research lab run by Ebonie. There is nothing of value on this hard drive as it was taken from a dumb terminal. Essentially an input/output (I/O) device with no internal processing power, a dumb terminal is a simple input-output device comprising a keyboard, monitor, network interface, and buffer memory that has only enough intelligence to respond to simple control codes from a computer. Nothing was saved locally on this computer. These dumb terminals use key rotation with an automated system that changes the key after each use. This limits their ability to connect to the server. Additionally, the network rotates which server the dumb terminal is assigned to use with each session. The user is required to use an authenticator when connecting to the network. This is all managed by CyberArk which is a group of AI that work for Draco Industries to ensure their cyber security.

Kimberly Scott
Character | Sep 2, 2023
In getting prepared for their assassination attempt, it is likely that they will request that Kimberly gather them information on Franz and on various locations that he can be found. She can easily find them all the information on Franz Draco's profile other then the truth about his blood line which she cannot discover for them. She can also get the general family line information as this is public information. If she investigates locations for them, she comes back with the report that Franz spends most of his time at the Draco Mansion Estate whether he is working or not. She will not be able to provide the specifics of the security as this is closely guarded information. However, she call tell the players that Cyber Ark is responsible for providing the technology and AI for the mansion's security system. She can also tell them that the mansion is guarded by the Draco Elite who are a team of highly trained Shadow Investigation Agents. But she cannot give them specifics regarding the team or the members of the team. She can also provide them with the very basics of the estate's lay out. But this is just general information as this is closely protected information. In fact, she encountered numerous stories and rumors that people had been killed to protect the secrets of the mansion. She didn't feel that the stories were anything beyond what Franz is capable of.

Qhall will contact Team 8 and will offer them cybernetic implants. He encourages them to make use of his surgeon so that they can be as prepared as possible when facing Franz.
