The Night began with the group in a fight, during that fight during the fight Shull unleashed Shepard who helped out at the end of the fight, the group then looted the place and went back to the Normandy, Shepard was quickly moved to medical to get treated and the group dived up the loot they got, The group also gained a total of 3 levels.

Shepard spoke to the group thanking them for her rescue, and gave information to the group, about what she learned, and they gave her a bit themselves. The group then traveled to the Citadel, as the group arrived they found a media circus, that the group was also whisked to a council meeting,

The council session had some interesting revelations with Bills Character stating she is Shepard and Liaras child, which caused both shepherds to look at her, it ended with the Humans and the Turans help. It ended with Shepard taking the Asari and the Solarians to task for not helping and the Human Councilor requesting a private meeting in her office.

The meeting in the office Hanna Shepard, went well she reaffirmed the help and said she would probably be able to get the help of Rannoch, and Tuchanka, and she would be speaking with the Turian councilor about working together.

The Human Councilor stated that she was going to be assigning her daughter SPECTRE Commander Jane Shepard and SPECTRE Major Ashley WIlliams to lead this operation.. and asked if the group in question was willing to stay on as the Spearhead to deal with the situation, and take the van for their forces. the Group accepted.

At this point the group was given an apartment on the station, to stay in while Hanna Shepard was able to speak to everyone in question. The group broke up to do various things.

Zorii was requested to stay behind and speak with both Shepard’s about her revelation and to set up the proper tests to make sure she is not lying.

Shuul, went about getting an appointment with the Geth representative, and had a good meeting where he shard his information, and got a few upgrades.

The rest of the group went to the apartment and shopping.

The Evening began with the group having just gotten back to the Normandy after spending the last few days evading patrols getting back to the shuttle.

After arriving they looked at the information they acquired during there attack on the Batarian stronghold, and found more information on the Station. that is located in Erzbat

The Space Station information

The station has four floors to it, bottom floor is engineering which is mostly automated with mostly droid guards and turrets,

The third floor is taking up with crew quarters and cells large enough for Reapers

The second floor is Science and engineering,

The first floor is command, and Communications

The station at full capacity has at most 30 people plus a number of Reaper Constructs

The compliment as far as the computer can tell the current compliment is as follows

Commander: Rorrk Dem’marr
Head of Security: Fane Dem’marr
Cerberus Assault Troopers x6
Blood Pack Troopers x6
6 Salarian Scientists
6 bridge crew
4 Engineer crew

Cannibals x2
Marauders x2
Ravager x1
-——

After a bit of conversation they decided they had to quickly make there way to the Station in Erzbat in hops to be able to find both the general and Shepard there, It took the Normandy a week to arrive, so during that time they did some crafting and modification to their gear.

Once they arrived, they took the shuttle with two marines in toe, and tried to stealthily make there way to and attach to the station. the group arrived on the second floor, crew quarters, and Shull was able to get the airlock to accept them and they entered, only to find themselves in a combat, within a few minutes of entering the place.

The group found a group of 6 Cerberus Assault Troopers, 3 Blood pact troopers, 2 Cannibals and 2 Marauders, waiting for them, there attempts to a stealth entry where not as successful. The fight wasn’t easy but they defeated there enemies. During the fight they found that at least one of the Marauders was not standard and exploded after being killed. and then quickly went into the local security office, and locked down Engineering and Science and Engineering levels, also cutting off the cameras to those levels as well, the only level they found they could not access was command, something they where not surprised at.

The group was also able to find a request by the command officers to transport both Shepard and the Ravager up to command level. they also found a message from something called the Hybrid, requesting the generals presence, dated about about a day ago. The General had left about the same time, leaving Shepard behind. The group was also able to gain access to the fabricators on Science level, looking for patterns they could use but found patterns for items to upgrade the Reaper Constructs they are creating.

After they where done the group talked about what they where going to do next, came up with a few plans a few they did not have the ability to do so. they eventually did find a workable plan and made their way up to command. (Session ended there)

The evening began with the group bumping into a group of Repaer constructs which included 2 marauders, 2 Cannibals, 5 Husks. This caused a fight which the group defeated, After the fight ended the group checked to see what they could loot from the corpses and found nothing salvageable, At the same time Zev noticed a strange protrusion on one of the Marauders neck and was able to surgically remove it only to find a strange chip in its neck, at first the group thought it might have been leftover Reaper technology for them to keep control but after careful checking they realized It was not Reaper tech but they believe Batarian technology, purpose unknown. After removing the chips the group moved off a ways and decided to wait the next two hours to see what happened, about the hour or so mark they noticed a ship leave the fortress and head this way, the Batarian shuttle hovered for about 20 minutes before head back to the fortress.

After this instance the group decided to move towards the fortress their ultimate goal. Once they arrived they spent the next few days examining the place to find a way in, during their examining of the place, they noticed that the place has a standard cap of two assault shuttles, that do their rout then land for thirty minutes, which puzzled the group until Shuul noticed in the distance two Harvesters also flying a much wider cap dart fast into the area during those 30 minutes. At the same time they where listening to the chatter over the radio and noticed fairly standard chatter. Much of it in a code they couldn’t decipher. They also noticed an out door landing pad where shuttles where landing and taking off, which large crates being put on but nothing coming off them. After this they continued to look until they found what was described as a Sally Port into the place, that had been overgrown and un-guarded and un-used.

The group eventually decided to use this door as it seemed to be the easiest and stealthiest way in. They send Shull forwards in stealth to check it out and he found it completely unguarded, which did put them in a guarded position but he was quickly able to open the door and peer inside, inside he saw a dimly lit hallway that was extremely dusty, it was at this point he waved the rest of the group through. The group moved through this area finding it unused before opening a door that was brightly lit but was used for storage. So the group moved and found an elevator, which they manually opened the doors for to find an empty shaft as the climbed the ladder a few floors up, and found another empty hallway that was active and found an access port to get some information. This information included a map of the place, which they found goes a ways down a couple of hundred floors, most of them taken up by housing. and a number of floors just labeled cells. They then found a number of floors above them is the local Security office for this sector, which is where the group went.

As soon as they opened the door and walked out they where greeted by a fight, a bunch of Krogan, Vorcha and a bunch of Varren, The Fight itself was not easy as there was no cover, Shull was taken down, but quickly revived. The group eventually won the fight, They where easily able to get into the security office and close down the sector they where in. which gave them time to look at the security files. they found quite a bit. They had control of the cameras which showed them rows upon rolls of cells some of which have occupants and in these cells you see what look like docile Repaer constructs, bruits, Marauders, Cannibals and others. If they keep watching they would see a group of Batarians and Krogran and Vorcha taking a group of Brutes and a Marauder out of the cages and moved them to awaiting crates and taken to an awaiting transport. They also found a memo to get the sole human occupant of the cells with the name Shepard, dated a week ago requesting by the General to get her ready for transport to a space station, in orbit around Erzbat. They also learned that the Batarians are both harvesting and creating them, but not at this location. they couldnt find that location in the system they had access to.

The group also thought about blowing it up themselves but quickly disabused themselves of that notion when they realized it wouldn’t be easy. So the group took advantage and got off the planet and back to the Normandy where they let SPECTRE Williams know to contract the Alliance or the Citadel about what’s going on and hopefully get them to send a fleet to destroy the place.

Before the group left Omega they got this information, on General Ecray Dran’fapos

Ecray Dran’fapos,

Was the top General in the Batarian Hegemony, Ran all there military operations, and their slavery operations, and was rumored to be the next in line to run the Hegemony before the Mass Relay was destroyed, destroying the Hegemony.

He is extremely well respected among the Batarian populations.

He then took over control until the reapers went through destroying what was left, Ecray Dran’fapos was thought of as dead. Until about a year and a half ago when he was seen back out in the galaxy, He has been seen recruiting from among the disparate Batarian population, he has also recruited amongst many others.

It is rumored that he is not working for himself that he is working for someone else someone much bigger.

He is known to have three different fortresses where his people have congregated. These locations are known to be.

Kite’s Nest / Indris System/Camala

Kites Nest/Indris System/Erszbat
Eagle Nebula/Amun System/Anhur
-————————————

After looking over the information Zorii decided to contact one of her old Mercenary contacts to see if she could possibly hire on with to try to get near him, as they found out there target is hiring on mercenaries. Her contact an Asari told her that she could get her the information she wanted but tried to talk her out of it as he was intending on using them as cannon fodder, she also let her know that he is only hiring Vorcha, Krogan and Batarians.. and that he has a loathing for humans and would never hire them. Zorii pressed her old friend who eventually relented by giving her a name.

Two names to be exact Ecrays sister and his cousin,
Apenine is his sister:
Okerem is his cousin:
she said they where the ones running the operation but they where doing it out of cutouts and factors, So Zorii decided to use one of her aliases to contact them and a few days later while sitting in Afterlife she had a visitor the rest of the group arrayed in various places around Afterlife expecting a short conversation then a fight happened, ending up with the factor a batarian captured by the group and the rest of his hired guns dead.

Zorii and John took the factor out the back way and to an apartment secured for this specific job while the rest of the group looted the bodies for whatever they could in a short amount of time.

Once inside the apartment an interrogation ensued which did not amount to much other then the group learned of the name of the individual that the factor knew one named Pravile and that he was the only one able to send the message. Threats being made to the factor of what would happen if he betrayed the group. The factor sent a message in code, and not fearing for his life as his life was already forfeit he sent a message but not the one the group wanted him to send, a warning to his people, which ended up with his head splattered. A quick trace by Shuul, got them the system but couldn’t get any closer.

The group then left Omega to allow things to cool down, and not knowing exactly where to go they enlisted the help of EDI and others of the crew of the Normandy that had more experience at this then they do, with there information and the help of the Normandy they where able to narrow it down to the planet Camala.

The ship made its way to the system and once they arrived at the Indris System, Spectre Williams sent her son and a team to the planet to scout it out. A few days travel the Normandy trusting in its stealth systems arrived in system and moved as close as it dared to the planet finding the systems defenses being rebuild and new stations being built, at this point the scout team returned with its information.

Henry, the lead of the operation gave the group the information, that there was a fortress about the size of a standard old Earth Castle but designed with modern technology, it had gun emplacements and stood on a hill overlooking the area, as they where not designed as an infiltration team they did not have the tools to get inside, he also let the group know the area was surrounded by dense jungle and to watch out for reaper constructs, Husks, Marauders, Ravagers, and Canniibal’s as they are prowling around the planet. They also set up a landing site an old landing pad 4-5 days from the fortress.

It was after the meeting and before the team left when Zorii dropped the bombshell that she was actually Asari, since she knows she wont be able to keep it a secret during the mission.

The group took the shuttle down to the planet and made there way on foot through the jungle, the evening ended with the group about to be attacked by a group of Reaper constructs.

The group, waited till later to

The group looted the bodies and got a few weapons, they also took the coms gear with the specific frequency. John found a trapped door, and found it was locked, with an electronic lock, Zorii thinks she was able to persuade those on the radio that they were the guards up top. The group found a lit Ladder that is a tight fit for them. The group unlocked the door and walked out and found mostly bedrooms, in another hallway, they found a gymnasium the other side had a storage room and a room with a lot of computers in it. They were about to hack into the computers and got a map of the place.

The group, Shull was able to hack the door open, The group walked into the Doctors lab and found a Brute and Ravager corpse, They found a room of corpses that where older then a room of fresher corpses. They found swarmer’s in the bodies, The fight ended with the doctor unconscious, and everyone else dead.

The group looted the bodies, and acquired two full sets of armors some weapons and two vials of unknown liquid, then took the shuttle back to the ship, to relax for a bit, and divvy up the loot. The Doctor in chains.

John wanted to speak to the Good doctor, St, Ignatius Orphanage, You had issues, Ran away from multiple orphanages, and was going to enhance him into a superman, the vials create a Brute without the negatives.

The group sold the weapons,

The group arrived back on the Normandy and where wondering where to go from there, they decided to check out the pads and found messages between Stonard and a figure named Mia Brooks.

Zorii remembered, who she was and was not flattering.

The early messages where about being contacted by Mya Brooks about picking up shepherds body and delivering, it to a Batarian, and that Stonard wanted in.

The name of the Batarian had a name Ecray Dran’fapos, a General in the Hegemony’s military,

One of the pads was correspondence with her Husband and children, in the Ismar Frontier, in the Hito system.

Ecray Dran’fapos a Batarian General a well-known and respected one, within the Hegemony and tried to keep it going after the Reapers destroyed the Hegemony, after that it gets muddled.

Zorii sent a message to her friend on Omega, She got back a message saying that Aria would want to speak with them when and if they come back and the group would not want to run afoul of the bloodpact but they won’t be arrested or shot on sight.

The group decided to head to Omega, They were met, by three individuals… a Batarian a Krogan and a Asari, and the Asari spoke telling them the Empress wishes to speak to them. Zev decided to stay on the ship as the rest of the group is escorted to Aria herself, She requested a scientist that she wishes to speak with him. And she has tried to be diplomatic but has been rebuffed.

The Scientist was a Human Genesist, The group is getting 45,000 credits plus not being harassed, plus the information in question,

The information on the Scientist, a Human named Raymond Friendly, with an image of a human male shock white hair full beard cybernetic eyes, in a doctor outfit, at this point John had a debilitation headache taking him to his knees, and got a flash back of the future in a medical gown with a scalpel telling him he will become his greatest creation. Then the flash ends.

The Scientist, is deep in the bowls of Omega, Akoram Can’dabar, who styles himself a warlord with a bit of an army of, Batarians and Vorcha.

The group went down to the level he was hold up, not knowing if the doctor was a guest or a prisoner and found a veritable fortress waiting for them with quite a few Batarian and Vorcha guards, the group eventually defeated the guards but not without a protracted fight.

The fight continued from the session before, the group was out numbered but was quickly able to defeat the fighters, but not without John going down once but was healed and was able to get back into the fight and help the group defeat their foes.

As soon as they defeated the enemies and healed up, they decided to head to the bridge, and immediately realized that this ship had been severely attacked by an unknown foe. They found most of the crew floating dead in the ship, and areas of the ship that where completely open up to space. After backtracking a bit they where able to find the bridge and its door sealed shut but without power. Zev initially tried to power the door through his Omni tool, but failed. This forced the group to go with plan B and jury rig 5 grenades to create an explosion that would blow the door but not destroy themselves or the cockpit. This was a success.

Once the cockpit was opened they saw one of the screens light up with a message from Captain Stonard telling them that they failed to get her and good luck and then a countdown that the group figured was the ships self-destruct. This got the group minus scrambling to try to get to engineering before it blows, not everyone making it for various reasons, the three that made it where Zev, Gregor and Shuul. Once there they made a mad dash to try to turn the self destruct off, but found due to the damage they where only able to extend the timer to a half hour, which allowed the group to be able to separate to try to get anything valuable they could.

Shuul going back to the Cockpit to see what he could acquire from the computers
Gregor went back to the cargo hold they had the fight in to see what he could find.
Zev tried to get to network storage to try to get the hard drives and failed to get there in time
John went to the captains cabin
Zorii went trying to loot whatever she could find
-———-

Shuul was able to get two videos
One was a video of the captain and the black armored figures walking off the ship and onto the ominous black ship before the ship fired on the Asimov with most of her crew onboard.

The other video was that of the Asimov picking Jane Shepard up, and delivering her to an unknown Bataran ship out on the rim in the Rosetta Nebula, specially Alpha Draconas.

---

Gregor/Zorii was able to scrounge up some credits and equipment, as well as being able to retrieve some of thee armor.

---

John got a few other items he shard with the group and three unknown pads.

The evening ended with the group leaving the ship and heading back to the Normandy before the Asimov blew up.

The group got enough xp to go to level 3

Gregor T’Partoss, Turian Soldier
Zevin “Zev” Williams, Salarian Engineer
Shuul, Geth Infiltrator
John Septimius ,Human Vanguard
Zorii Dantius, Asari Sentinel/human Poseur

The group Left Omega and took the gate to the Armstrong Nebula before heading to the Hong system, The Normandy was not able to dock at the station so the team had to take the shuttle. The Kodiak shuttle docked at the station and find that the station is not responding. They found that they have a secure seal with the station but no answer from it nor did the door open. So Shuul was able to unlock and open the door, the group found that there is air is not operating perfectly,

The group started to walk into the central area noticing that their where sleeping pallets, on the floor and signs of a combat and they notice that all computer terminals seemed to be specifically targeted. It dauned on Shuul that they might be able to cobble together a working machine for a time, by canabilizing the other units to get one working for a time. Shuul is able to hgack into the system, and found one of the ships is the Nostromo, T;sumka. The found the fight happened about a day or two after the Asimov arrived. The last update about 4 days ago.

The group decided to check out the Nostromo, They found more scochmarks leading to the Nostromo and the doors blasted open, to find that the ship is pitch black without any lights or any power. They made their way to the bridge to only find the captain, dead slumped in a chair.

John, Zev, and Gregor head down to engineering, they opening the door in engineering as a potshot wrang out hitting John as he asked why you attacked, the Gregor tried to get him to come out of hiding as the guy was obviously scared. They were able to get him to come out of his hiding space and Zev was able to do a quick perusal of him, that he is in a bad mental state either mental or farmacuitical, he also had a broken arm, as the group was talking with him trying to get information out of the kid without any luck, John was able to retrain him but not get the gun out of his hand which went off while they tried, but where eventually able to get it, and Gregor was able to give him a protein bar. Zev was able to gfet the power back on, at that point a bunch of drones and Mechs activated and attacked the group, they were eventually dealt with quickly. The ‘kid had firmly ensconced himself in a corner hiding even more scared then he was. Gregor tried and failed to get the kid to tell him his name, then Zorii tried. The kid told Zorii the name Michael, He gave the group information on who attacked that he saw white armor.

The group went to the bridge to watch the video as they saw the Asimov dock with the station, then they saw a sleek black ship disgorge half a dozen members in white armor walk onto the station with an unknown female figure in some sort of uniform, at the same time you see Stonard walk off her ship with two figures in black armor following her, as they enter an a separate room without cameras, as they are speaking you see half a dozen Cerberus armored figures start to kill everyone, before they leave, then the members of the Asamov do the same thing.

Shuup was able to find an idea of where they went or will go to the Nubian Expanse, Hades Nexus, Pylos Nebula, Sigurd’s Cradle Psi Tophet.

After returning to the Normandy, and let Ashley know what they found who brought EDI into it and they decided that Pragia in the Nubian Expanse would be the most probable place to catch Stonard and the Asimov.

Once they arrived at Pragia they found the Asimov floating in space leaking atmosphere and and not under power, they used the sensors to check to see if there was any life and found their was life and minor power, when they arrived on station they got themselves embroiled in a combat .

The group met at the docking bay they where told you at D23 a bit earlier then the 0500 hours they where told you meet, as the group stood there waiting, they did notice that the place was completely empty, even at that early in the morning their should have been some sort of activity but their was none. Before anyone could do anything about it the ship they where waiting for the The SSV Normandy 2 arrived and docked.

but in Alliance colors

They watched on the monitor as two figures exited the ship both they had met one SPECTRE Major Ashley Williams, and one Specialist Samantha Traynor enter the bay, and introduce herself and made sure the members of the group where who they where supposed to be.

Gregor T’Partoss, Turian Soldier
Zevin “Zev” Williams, Salarian Engineer
Shuul, Geth Infiltrator
John,Human Vanguard
Zorii Dantius, Asari Sentinel/human Poseur

The group quickly embarked the Normandy and was escorted to their quarters before meeting back up at the conference room to speak about the reason they are there, the group spoke to each other while waiting and introduced themselves, until the SPECTRE and EDI walked in and the conversation began in earnest.

Traynor got a video showing Shepards body breath and this mission is to hopefully find her and bring her home.

The conversation quickly went to information, which isnt much.. the only thing they know is that they got the video who sent it to them is unknown but they did learn of a ship and her pilot who they believe transported Shepard’s body. where is unknown, this captain was named Vallorie Stonard, a captain AWOL from the Alliance, who captains the Asimov, and that the last place the Asimov was known to be was Omega.

The Normandy arrived at Omega fairly quickly, the ship docked at Omega, and the group disembarked and went right to a terminal so Zorii could see if she could contact an old friend from her Eclipse days, she was able to contact one and set up a meeting for an hour in Afterlife , she decided to take John with her, Gregor and Zev decided to check out the markets and check out the local Clinic. Shuul decided to hack into the computers to see what he could find.

An hour went by and Zorii and John went to see her contact and old friend, and they made a deal for a favor from a SPECTRE, and she told Zorii that the captain was heading to a station on the Armstrong Nebula and a station in the Hong system, Gregor and Zev had a nice walk and talk with Maalin at the Clinic before deciding to head back to the ship, when both groups arrived, while Shuul was hacking the system not getting much other then that the Asimov did dock here and picked up a cargo but nothing beyond that. what Shuul did not realize is that the system noticed him rooting around in the system and sent people to investigate, initiating a combat; Lead by a Krogan of the Bloodpack, 3 Eclipse troopers and 3 loki Meks.

The fight was fairly short, with Zorii calling the Eclipse troopers off, while the rest of the group took care of the Meks and the Krogran with Shuul the only one of the group to take damage…

the Night ended with the grop getting 170xp each
