Yeah, but when we broke into the club, our mage only cast invisibility, clairvoyance, levetation and healing spells.  When the drek hit the fan and LoneStar showed up, there were no tell-tail physical signs a mage had ever been involved.  Thus, they didn't check all that close for unauthorized astral signatures until it was too late and the signature faded.

Probibly a good way to go.
I always liked the quiet stealthy extractions the best.

Yeah, well, that was the one where I was on the floor getting (almost) killed by the weapons spec with the 1 in computers.  Everyone bolted as best they could, and me and the weapons spec ended up in that pocket out of time talking to a caffenated water spirit.

Speaking of people exploding (check a few posts back), how feasable do you think it would be to have about a pound of C-4 surgicly implanted into a person's chest davity? I know it can be easily done, but just how hard would it be to detect??? Any ideas???

Well, a chest x-ray would show irregularities--especially if there's a solid detonator (I volunteered at the rad department in a hospital a few months ago).  Dunno about metal/cybernetic sensors.  Probably depends on the detonator.

chemical compounds of that nature 'sweat' as well. so a chem-sniffer would be able to pick it up through the skin if it was in there for any length of time... like... long enough for the person to heal up from the incision.

probibly be easyer to coat the backside of their ribcage than to have it in one lump sum though... would have the same problems though... although that would make it a bit harder to pick up on an X-Ray.

well, if you just coated the back side of the ribcage, you could use one of thoes mobil sprayers. a small tube... the actual incisin could be like 1" ... hide it allong the bottom of one of the ribcages... or make it look like an apendix was removed or something.

Well, the idea is to have a PC with this kind of thing hooked to a biomonitor. If the monitor flatlines, the PC goes BOOM, hopefully taking out any bad guys in the process. The problem is getting it past normal detection devices like MAD scanners and such. As for the "sweating" thing, I would think having the explosives contained inside a casing would be the way to go with that.

Now THAT'S a good point I had never thought of. I'll have to think of something else...

Well, it's kinda a double problem...

if you tell people, "You shouldn't kill me, I'll explode and kill you too!" they'll just kill you from far away.

if you don't tell them, you are probibly going to be more likely to just blow up your friends who are trying to get your flatlining self to an Evac point so docwagon can patch you back together.

you could do it to someone else as a threat, a cranial nuke or kink-bomb of some sort. (that's classic enough to happen ocasionally) but it's so expencive, that it's often not worth the effort.

A better 'death knell' would be to have a wireless transmitter, broadcasting the last ten minutes of video to the matrix in a public forum, letting everyone know who killed you.

then, thoes who know you; know where to go to get revenge.
