DAY ONE
[X] Go straight to Tony and give him $200, keeping the rest for yourself, he won't notice the difference and you need it more than him.
It'd be a good idea to wait 'till dark, so Tony doesn't think anything's suspicious, you'd give him the $200 as promised and pocket the rest. Then again, Tony knows people, if you gave him more than twice market value, he'd be impressed, and that'd open up doors for you... Come to think of it, that's a terrible idea, what the hell would you gain from forking over $500? Yeah he'd be impressed alright, right up until you couldn't deliver. You know what? There's no point in wasting time here, you'd be better off just heading straight for Tony and giving him all of the Credits he wanted.
[20+2=22]
+2 for experience
Seriously!?! Again!?! The RNG must owe you some favors, Bay12.
You start walking and fifteen minutes later you're at the Park. Damn, should've taken the back alley shortcuts the first time. Lesson Learned. Tony's sitting on a Bench talking to someone on a smartphone, when he sees you he hangs up.
"Why you back so early? Pigs hold you up? Run into some Vipers?" You hold up your hand, cutting him off,
"Nah, sold it all in one go. Here's the cash." -$200 Credits The look of disbelief on his face is priceless and you won't forget it anytime soon.
He counts the Slips to check that you're not cheating him and after finishing, nods contentedly.
"Good, good work boy... This's just what I needed. Hmm, I said I'd give you a cut, fair's fair, and here it is." He hands you back one-fifth of the money, slightly greasy from Tony's sweaty hands.
+$40 Credits Tony keeps talking,
"Now, I said I'd reward you if you came back on time, and damn I'd say this qualifies," He partially unzips his rain slicker, grabs something and hands it to you.
+9mm Pistol, +16 9mm Rounds "With your, ah, condition and all the wannabe gangsters running around, I figured you could use some heat. Consider it an investment. You know how to shoot right?"Your own 9mm Pistol, yours, not borrowed or stolen, man. Sure, it's a peashooter compared to the hardware most gangs use, and you might as well try to use a butter-knife on the cops, but still. Holding it almost makes you feel like you do when you use your Powers, like, like you're important, like you mean something. That, and it should be more than enough for druggies. You'd better be careful with it though, the laws against Mutants owning Firearms are strict, if you were caught you'd probably never see the light of day.
Incredulously, you nod,
"Y-yes sir..." "Atta boy, if you're smart, you'll keep it hidden, if you're smarter, you'll keep it on safety and the chamber empty. Don't want it to go off and you lose a foot, got it?" You nod again,
"Uh, Yuh huh. Uh, I mean, yes sir." "Sir? If I was a sir I wouldn't be drug dealing in this trash heap, call me Tony." "Yes si-, uh, A-alright." "Seeing as how it's this early, do you want some more work? Also, my memory's not the greatest, what was your name again?"[?] What
is your name? This can include a nickname, or anything that you go by.
[X] Sure, you could use some work. (Choose one option)
[] Deliver $80 credits of Blitz to a local dealer in the slums. Blitz is a highly addictive, and highly illegal synthetic drug for Gene-Freaks like you. It gives users a temporary upgrade to their powers and gives them much better control, it also has a decent chance of an adverse reaction. Last week, you read in the papers that some lightweight fire mutant exploded in a crowded cafe. Not pretty, not pretty at all. If you do this job, you'll get paid $30 credits, this is a low risk job.
[] Rough up some of the competition. Recently a rival gang calling themselves the Vipers has been muscling in on Tony's territory, and that's bad for business. Tony needs you to intimidate a few Thugs that have been hanging out on Bourne's Street. Shouldn't be to well armed, almost certainly no Muties, but they might put up a fight. If you can drive them off without fighting, great, but if you have to, try not to kill anybody. If you do this job, you'll get paid $200 credits, this is a high risk job.
[] Is there anything else you could do?
[X] Nah, you're fine for today. (Choose one or two options)
[] Go to a fast food and get some cheap food to celebrate.
[] Go to an
actual Restaurant and get some real food to celebrate.
[] Go shopping and spend some money. (Specify what kind of store you're looking for.)
[] Go downtown, find a Bar where they won't ask questions and spend some money to celebrate.
[] Go uptown and beg for change, if you look terrible enough it'll pay off and besides, you could use some more money.
[] Go Dumpster Diving, you can find some pretty nice stuff sometimes and besides, the stuff's free.
[] Look for a place to crash for the night, it's still pretty early but it helps to make sure. If all else fails, you could use a Homeless Shelter, but you might get knifed.
[] Go find somewhere isolated and practice using your Powers.
[] Look for a Hotel or Motel to crash for the night, you've got the money.
[] Something else?
