  Jericho Jones 
  By Colin A. Steele 
  Editing and comments by Winterfrost 
  As the author states below, this is obviously not a "fully fleshed-out adventure." Though I have not run my 
  players through this scenario, I have read through it and there is obviously a lot of work still to be done on the 
  GM's part. At a glance, I would say that the NPCs are the major area in need of work. In my campaign, nothing 
  is written in stone until I say it is, so obviously if the NPCs' stats seem in need of modification, I'll do it on-the-fly 
  (the players haven't read the stats, right?), but in this case it is obvious that the NPCs were probably generated 
  using CyberNPC or a similar utility. The character points are completely disproportionate to the character 
  descriptions, the skills are ridiculous to say the least (Rocko looks like he'd be a better University professor than 
  a fixer, and how many Solos do you know that would have Botany and Paint or Draw as skills of note?), and the 
  cyberware is obviously limited and fairly uninventive. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to paint the author in a 
  bad light -- he gives us fair warning that Jericho Jones isn't meant to be a masterpiece -- I'm just trying to give a 
  prospective GM advance warning that a fair amount of preparation is needed. But at the very least you have a 
  foundation to go on. If I have one criticism, though it does give the "typical" edgerunner many moments to bail 
  out with the cash, it seems to play on the PCs' "sympathetic" sides which I just don't find very plausible, so the 
  motivation would need a little work, at least in my campaign. I would also appreciate any additions, 
  comments, etc. on this adventure for other GMs who may spot it on this site. Enjoy!

  This is not meant to be a fully fleshed-out adventure. There are many gaping holes, that you, the GM, are 
  gonna have to fill. My intention was to create a framework which was sufficiently fleshed out to be useful, but 
  flexible enough to be adapted to your campaign. If you find this adventure useful, please let me know. It would 
  really make me psyched. Also, if you have additions, corrections, side-plots, other characters, etc., that you use 
  in running "Jericho Jones", or that you think would fit nicely in the story, please send 'em this way. I'll incorporate 
  them and publish them in the second edition. Thanks, and enjoy. 
    
  Jericho Jones  
  Rocko, a small-time fixer known to one party member, contacts the party with a "favor" to ask. He has a client, 
  Malachi Jones, who needs to have his son returned to him. To emphasize the "favor" appeal, make one of the 
  characters, preferably a nomad, somehow owe a favor to Malachi Jones. If the characters are stupid enough 
  to do this as a "favor", Rocko pockets a big wad of cash. If the characters are smart, Rocko makes them the 
  real offer. His client offers 10,000 eb for the return of Jericho Jones, the son of Malachi Jones, the chief of the 
  Jones Tribe. Jericho is hiding out in Sky Mesa, with the tribe of nomads living in the area. 
  The characters accept the job and travel to Sky Mesa. They arrive in the middle of a firefight. The tribe of 
  nomads living in Sky Mesa is getting the shit kicked out of 'em by the local wastelanders, the Fury. Jericho is 
  
  nowhere to be seen. If the characters look specifically at the Fury's tactics, they'll notice that the Fury is being 
  semi-methodical, as if looking for someone. The characters join in on the side of the Sky Mesa tribe, of course, 
  and eventually chase off the Fury. Again, if the characters are being careful and keeping their eyes open, 
  they'll see part of the Fury gang hops in an AV-4 (an extremely odd possession for a wastelander gang). The 
  AV-4 has no markings, and it speeds off into the night before the characters can do anything more. The rest of 
  the Fury takes off on cyberbikes. 
  The massacre is a sight. Women and children are just so much lunchmeat. Many RV's and trailers are ablaze. If 
  the characters are helpful, offering medical aid, etc., they will be taken to see Jericho. Play the massacre up 
  for maximum compassion effect (Edgerunners... compassionate..? Well, maybe some... - W). When the 
  characters meet Jericho he explains that he and his father, Malachi, had a huge falling-out last year, and 
  Jericho has been at Sky Mesa ever since. Jericho was trying to prove to his father that Kruger Bioprime, a mid-
  size multinational, is bad news. It's obvious that Jericho is a righteous dude. He cares about people, and is trying 
  to create a better life for the people of Sky Mesa. In fact, he's the de facto leader of the Sky Mesa tribe. You 
  ask, "Why is Jericho down on Kruger, when Kruger Bioprime has been downright friendly with the Jones Tribe?" 
  As part of a "multicultural activism campaign" to "improve the public's perception of Kruger Bioprime" they 
  have been helping the Jones Tribe fight to regain some land titles to property in Salt Lick. Jericho never bought 
  the corp's bullshit. He has always suspected something more sinister, but hasn't been able to prove anything. To 
  boot, the corp has been winning some of the court battles, and the Jones Tribe now has legal rights to some 
  property in Salt Lick. That makes it even harder for Jericho to talk sense to Malachi.  
  Jericho lays the cards on the table. He asks the characters to help him find the dirt on Kruger. If the characters 
  are of the mind just to collect their money, Jericho will outbid his father, offering to double their fee. Of course, 
  he's full of it. The Sky Mesa tribe can only pay about 1/2 of the 10,000 eb the characters were originally offered 
  for the job. But anyhow, Jericho'll play both on the characters pocketbook sense, and on their sense of justice. 
  And, he adds, if they can indeed turn the tables on Kruger Bioprime, the Sky Mesa tribe will "owe them". Now if 
  the characters just want to bag Jericho, fine. Let 'em. They'll have no problem bringing him in to 'ole Pop. They'll 
  collect their fee, and head off into the sunset. What they won't know is that the Sky Mesa tribe springs Jericho 
  from incarceration in the Jones tribe. Much later, they'll read in the news about what Kruger Bioprime is really 
  doing in Salt Lick.  
    
  The Real Fax 
  Kruger Bioprime is bad news. They've got Malachi Jones on the payroll, keeping him quiet and rich, while they 
  wrestle deeds out of the legal system and into Malachi's hands. Don't even ask what they're doing to the 
  unwitting members of the Jones tribe. 
  The story goes something like this: With some serious hush money, Kruger convinced Malachi to let them build a 
  secret R&D/training base on one of the parcels of land. The base was completed over a year ago and code-
  named Cadence Canyon. The original purpose of the base was lost when a violent internal coup put Katherine 
  Washington (the former CEO? - W) in power at Kruger. A smart Kruger exec, by the name of Charles Marsh, was 
  bucking to get a promotion to associate VP, and took over as the Candence Canyon project leader. He 
  realized that Cadence is in the middle of nowhere, and has a more or less captive population. It's perfect for 
  dumping hazardous waste, new product testing, covert op training, you name it! Mr. Marsh sent several memos 
  around to this effect, which is perfect dirt for Jericho to dig up. If he can. 
  Kruger planned to use the Jones tribe for product testing/op training, and they've made good on the plan, so 
  far. Malachi doesn't know it, but the corp has already been testing a new virus on a small segment of the 
  Joneses. The virus hasn't broken out yet, but it's a new form of anthrax which cannot live in soil. (Perfect for 
  military applications!) About 10% of the tribe is infected. Kruger plans to try out their cure on 1/2 of the infected 
  10%, and let the other half die to see how effective the virus is. (Kruger doesn't know it yet, but their 
  manufacturing process is for shit, and this is the only run of the virus that will be useful. It'll take them about 
  another year to produce a second batch.) Although Malachi doesn't know about the virus, he suspects 
  something might be up. Kruger knows this, and when Malachi reaches the breaking point, which they know he 
  will, they'll waste him. Then, according to some keen legalese, the deeds revert to Kruger. Imagine that! (If this 
  is the case, why don't they just kill him outright? Why do they have to wait for him to reach "the breaking point?" 
  Perhaps it will only revert if Malachi proves to be incompetent/incapable of proper management? Obviously if 
  he snapped, becoming violent -- which would be his obvious outlet for his frustrations as he wouldn't trust the 
  establishment to settle such a thing -- it would prove this. I'd try something along those lines. Just a suggestion... 
  
  - W) Then, Kruger can do whatever they please with the Jones tribe. Through their two moles in the Jones tribe, 
  Kruger learned that Jericho was trying to dis 'em. Wanting to protect their investment, Kruger ordered Malachi 
  to "lean" on the Sky Mesa tribe (to have Jericho returned? - W). So, Malachi hired the Fury. Big mistake. The Fury 
  was too cybered-up and psychoed-out for Malachi to control. Plus, their leader is kinda greedy. So, when 
  Kruger asked them to go ahead and waste Jericho, for 10,000 eb they didn't think twice. They took it upon 
  themselves to wipe out the Sky Mesa tribe, and put Jericho's head on a stick in front of their leader's tent. 
  Malachi realized his mistake, and, wanting to save his son, hired the characters to kidnap him. He doesn't know 
  that the Fury are playing both ends against the middle.  
    
  Diggin'  
  So, the characters team up with Jericho Jones! Now the fun starts. They've got to get some dirt on Kruger, 
  ASAP. The Fury are planning another raid on Sky Mesa, and have some scouts observing the movements of the 
  tribe. If the characters move Jericho, the Fury will know about it, and will attack at the first opportune moment. 
  Otherwise, they'll stage an attack on the Sky Mesa camp the night following. Perceptive characters will know 
  that a) they Fury were using an AV-4, and b) they were hunting for someone. If the characters make a point of 
  it, one of the Sky Mesa bunch will volunteer a few digital photos of the AV-4, taken during the raid. The 
  characters may decide to analyze these. Another clue: if there are any bodies of Furies, perceptive characters 
  who make a coupla' skill checks will find out that the Furies are sporting some keen new cyberware. Finally, if 
  there are any living Furies, they might be interrogated to reveal some useful clues. All of the clues will point the 
  characters back towards a particular fixer in Night City. From that fixer, they'll be able to make the connection 
  to Kruger Bioprime.  
    
  A Thousand Words 
  The photo analysis will yield a vehicle ID number - but only after some serious skill checks, time and cash. The 
  characters can try it themselves, using Photo & Film skill a program called DigiDesigner Pro, and 8 hours. Or, they 
  can call in some contacts to have it done, for about 2000 eb. Once they locate the contact and upload the 
  photos, it'll take 2 hours. If they use a contact, success is guaranteed (but don't tell them this). The vehicle ID 
  can be tracked down to a AV-4 reported stolen from a Kruger Bioprime branch office in Night City six months 
  ago. Included in the NCPD files concerning the case are some interesting clues. The case notes indicate that at 
  the scene of the crime, investigators found the tag symbol of the gang known as the Icemen. No gang 
  members could be apprehended for questioning, so the lead was never properly pursued. In addition, a 
  pattern of vehicle theft was developing, though not neccessarily correlated with the Icemen. AVs and 
  expensive cars were disappearing at a fairly high rate, for about 3 months around the time that this particular 
  AV-4 was stolen.  
  The next step for the characters might be to find and question some Icemen. This should be fairly difficult. The 
  the Icemen are a small gang whose primary reason for existence is to supply the members with enough cash to 
  support their drug of choice - Ice. Ice is a little-know, highly addictive hallucinogen. The users can be easily 
  identified by one of the drug's side effects - the user's skin temperature is significantly lower than normal. With 
  some streetdeal and some luck, they might be able to hook up with Frost, the leader, and chief junkie, of the 
  Icemen. From her, the characters might be able to find out that Micky hired the Icemen to do most of the 
  vehicle theft, including the AV-4 in question. Then again, Frost might just decide that the Icemen need to have 
  some fun, and jam on the characters heads! GM's discretion on this one.  
    
  Furious  
  If there were any of the Fury still alive, the characters might want to squeeze a little information out of them. 
  None of the 'dorphed out Furies is going to be of much value, but each successful Interrogation, Intimidation or 
  other related skill check (Average difficulty - 15) will yield one of the following clues: 
  1. Zap was in Night City two weekends ago 
  2. A bunch of Furies got treated to lots of shiny new cybergear at a place called "Rael's" in Night City. 
  3. Zap stole the AV while he was in Night City. 
  
  4. Zap and part of the gang did a road trip to Salt Lick three weeks ago. While there, Zap said he had 
  business to take care of and left for a couple of days. 
  5. Zap says we're supposed to kill Jericho Jones. 
  6. Zap's input, Jet, broke up with him last week and moved to Night City. 
  Clue #1 can be used to search police records to find that a person matching Zap's description was picked up 
  on disturbing the peace charges in a Night City club called the Rainbow Nights. The characters might be able 
  to find out from a savvy waitress that Zap was seen talking biz in the corner with Micky the fixer. Clue #6 can be 
  used to track down Jet, and find out from her that Zap got a big wad of cash from "some fixer" to "waste 
  Jericho Jones".  
    
  Bright Lights  
  If the characters check out the cyberware on the dead Furies, and make an Average (15) CyberTech skill 
  check, they'll determine that it's of local manufacture, and find out its serial number. They can chase that down 
  by either making the right connections (for 200 eb and an Average Streetwise or Easy Streetdeal skill check) or 
  by a Difficult CyberTech skill check. The designer is Rael Sanchez, a Night City ripperdoc operating out of Rael's 
  Bodysculpting and Tatoo. (p. 98 in Night City Sourcebook). Time to head into the city! Note that the Fury is too 
  dense to report the characters' movements to Kruger Bioprime. Their laced-out brains are filled with only one 
  thought -- ultraviolence on Jericho Jones. If the characters pay a visit to Rael's Bodysculpting, and make an 
  Average (15) Awareness/Notice skill check, they'll see that Rael has some concealed security cameras. If they 
  grease Rael's palm enough, or intimidate, or whatever, he'll let them take a peek at the footage taken when 
  the Furies came to visit. After about 2 hours of watching the Furies bounce around the clinic, harass other 
  customers, and have black cyberware installed, they'll catch Zap, the Furies' leader, say to Rael, "Good thing 
  Micky gave us cash!" Hmm.  
    
  You're So Fine 
  Characters who are fixers and are familiar with Night City will automatically have heard of Micky. Characters 
  with Streewise skill will recognize her name on a successful skill check of Average difficulty. Micky is a fairly well-
  known edgerunner who works primarily out of a dingy gym on the edge of the Zone. To get info from Micky our 
  heroes will either have to pay, bully, or hack her datasystem. It'll take some serious finagling to see Micky, in any 
  case. If Jericho is with the characters, she'll take off and order her bodyguards to kill Jericho. If not, she'll 
  demand 12,000 eb for the information. She can be bargained down as far as 5,000 eb. Or the characters can 
  try Intimidate, Persuasion/Fast Talk, Seduction, Interrogation, etc. But, she's one tough cookie, and her 
  bodyguards won't take kindly to interrogatation or intimidation. The characters could also try to wrest the data 
  from Micky's data systems. One way or another, the characters find out from Micky that Charles Marsh hired her 
  to deal with the Fury. (Jericho's fears are indeed true!) Micky has done other work for Mr. Marsh and Kruger 
  Bioprime, including the vehicle roundup carried out by the Icemen. Furthermore, she knows that Charles is 
  working on some sort of secret base. She doesn't know where. She'll even reveal that Malachi Jones is paying 
  the Fury to lean on the Sky Mesa tribe. Micky thinks this is a truly amusing state of affairs.  
  Jericho's reaction to the information Micky provides is a mixed one. Jericho is outraged at the news that his own 
  father hired the wastelanders to rough up the Sky Mesa tribe. He also doesn't understand why. Jericho is 
  properly justified, and not unsurprised when he learns that Kruger Bioprime is trying to kill him. It only hardens his 
  resolve to make Malachi see the light. The real question is, do the characters think their job is done? If the 
  characters are of a mind to teach Kruger a lesson, then just push on. Of course, Jericho feels that this is just tip 
  of the iceberg, and that they should try to push a bit further. He'll try his best to persuade them to do so, and if 
  he can't, he'll vow to "do it on his own" if he has to. Once again, the GM should play this up for maximum 
  compassion/anti-establishment/potential-monetary-gain effect. If the characters bag out, fine. Jericho 
  promises to send his brother to pay them (which he'll do, but only with 5,000 eb.) They'll read about the battle 
  that Jericho, the Joneses, and the Sky Mesa tribe fight against the Kruger ops at Cadence Canyon. If the 
  characters want to continue, then Jericho decides it's time to tell Malachi. He'll travel home to Salt Lick, and 
  meet his father, who is overjoyed to see him. They'll go have a heart-to-heart. Since Malachi doesn't know that 
  the characters are working for Jericho, unless they told him, he'll credit the characters' accounts with 10,000 eb. 
  If they don't have an account, he'll surreptitiously slip 'em the cash. Either way, they won't find out about it until 
  
  after the next episode in the adventure. Malachi and Jericho will emerge a couple of hours later, and call an 
  emergency meeting. The Sky Mesa tribe will travel down to Salt Lick to join in.  
    
  The War Council 
  The chiefs of the Jones tribe and the Sky Mesa tribe have decided to let the cat out of the bag. Malachi will 
  announce, with great shame, the whole story about Kruger to the tribes. He tells them about the secret base, 
  and about his suspicions. Jericho tells them about the Kruger connection to the Fury attacks. The tribes are 
  incensed! A quick vote is taken by the tribes, and the decision is unanimous: they must rid Salt Lick of Kruger 
  Bioprime. They begin to draw up their plans to do so. Malachi takes the characters aside, and thanks them for 
  returning his son. He tells them about their payment, and tells them, gravely, that he is forever in their debt for 
  saving Jericho. He informs them that they are not obligated to join in the battle against the Cadence Canyon 
  base. He offers them a car to return them to Night City, turns on his heel, and leaves. Now, what kind of people 
  are the characters? Here's the real test. Do they leave the battered tribes to fight alone against the sinister 
  Kruger Bioprime? They might. In fact, it's really good theatrics if they do, and then have second thoughts, and 
  come screaming back into the middle of the firefight at Cadence Canyon, just in time to turn the tide against 
  the highly trained Kruger ops. But, if they don't, that's OK too. They'll read about the horrendous battle at the 
  podunk town of Salt Lick, and the allegations of the Jones tribe that they were used as guinea pigs. Jericho will 
  call them three days later from a hospital bed, and tell them that their payment is on the way. He also tells 
  them that the tribes discovered that the corp had infected some tribe members with the virus, and that they 
  had gotten the cure from a lab in the base. He thanks them, and hangs up. The next day, an AV-4 -- the same 
  one that the Fury was using -- shows up, and a Sky Mesa nomad hands 'em the keys. (As some sort of payment, 
  I assume? I'm sure the Sky Mesa nomads could do with a good AV-4, stolen or not. - W)  
    
  Cadence Canyon  
  The Jones and Sky Mesa tribes may have some difficulty in their attack, because the Kruger facility is well 
  guarded. Cadence Canyon is at the end of a dirt road, off of what used to be highway 145. Highway 145 winds 
  out of Salt Lick to the north, towards the foothills. It's a narrow, two lane asphalt road badly in need of repair. 
  Boulders, rocky outcroppings, and bare earth surround the base, and the only cover is a few scraggly trees and 
  bushes. The tribes plan to attack at 1 am. The Jones' weatherman predicts it will be a moonless night, so the 
  nomads may be able to surprise the guards and effect a successful break-in. Jericho will lead a hand-picked 
  band of Sky Mesa nomads in a stealthy rear attack, while Malachi will take a much larger group and use them 
  in a frontal assault.  
  There are 6 guards, 2 "Section 7's" (highly trained security ops), a research team of 9, 4 administrative personnel, 
  and 2 executives at Cadence Canyon. A fairly sophisticated electronic surveillance network monitors the 
  facility at all times, which the nomads will have to defeat or circumvent in order to get in. It is a two-floor facility, 
  with the labs on the ground floor, and the offices on the second floor. There is an AV pad on the roof, and the 
  security team makes regular patrols in the AV (about every hour and a half). The rest of the details are up to the 
  GM...  
    
  Cast of Characters  
  As I mentioned in my comments above, I'm not impressed with these NPCs. They need a lot of work if they are 
  to have any sort of reasonaly important role in the adventure. I would recommend going over them with a fine-
  toothed-comb before play, but I have marked what I feel are the obvious trouble spots below with an asterix (*) 
  or comment. - W

  Corporate Report 
  KRUGER BIOPRIME 
  Industry: Biotech. Custom Organisms for the defense and agriculture industries. 
  Headquarters: Dallas 
  Regional Offices: Night City, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Boston 
  Name & Location of major shareholder: Anthony Linsky, Geneva.  
  Employees: 1200; Troops: 110; Covert: 6 
  Background: Kruger Bioprime was founded in 2010 and specializes in hard-to-design, hard-to-produce custom 
  organisms for special applications. Most of its business is with the US provisional government. However, Kruger 
  Bioprime is trying to diversify, and a possible buy-out by Militech is on the horizon. Kruger Bioprime went public 5 
  years ago, and is doing well, but not well enough to attract much new investment or interest. The Board is 
  hoping for a breakthrough with the Cadence Canyon project. 
  
  Equipment and Resources: 4 AV-4's (legally owned), 2 AV-4's (illegally obtained). The home office and the 
  Cadence Canyon facility have non-surgery capable infirmaries.  
  (I have excluded the section on "Micky's Datafortress" which was in the original adventure. I did this mostly just 
  because it did not come out clearly in the format I downloaded and I didn't want to include a butchered 
  version of it. Secondly, I really don't see a fixer having his or her own datafortress which would be accessible to 
  the public and therefore open to infiltration. If you choose to include the fortress, please design your own. -
