Setting: Modern day 2020s, and expect roughly the same level of technology we have in our current day and age. Magic schools, domains and circles are seen as fields of study. Magic isn't so common that the general populace is going around casting spells of 1st level or higher.

The world is very corporate-dominated, technology often surpasses magic, smartphones are more powerful than many spells.

You are a freelancer, doing the dirty work for the highest bidder at the very edge of the law.

Technomagic: I encourage you to try Hacking Tools proficiency, and some of the new spells, or maybe even subclasses found in the pdfs if you fancy them, expect to deal with a fair mix of magic and tech-related checks. When thinking about weapons and armor, consider how easily they can be concealed, walking around with a hunting rifle may not be taken lightly!

Stats: Point-buy.

Magical Items: 1 Common, 1 Uncommon, 1 Rare

Level 15, assume you're wealthy enough that mundane items can be procured without much fuss.

When thinking about your character, consider if you have sidegigs, hobbies, a business or family. Do you prefer to stay in your share of the safe house or do you have your own separate home with a family or friends?
Are you wealthy? Or have you squandered your earnings? You're high-profile and get paid a lot for the jobs you take, but money can always be spent

@rough igloo @south notch @lofty lodge @vale stirrup

It has been two weeks since The Breach, the fateful day when meteors rained down on the city of High Grace. Since then, unrest has been at an all-time high, riots break out as citizens demand answers from an impotent government, and Neo Spartans are deployed to quell the protestors.

The Deep Net is buzzing with rumors and heated debates about the future of the city, but one thing is for certain: Someone has made a big move, and the main players are scrambling to secure their position in the aftermath. It is a profitable environment for free lancers like yourself.

An independent fixer by the name Jordan M. is looking to hire some capable hands to hijack an armored convoy scheduled to drive around the city and relieve them of their cargo. His message reads as follows:

I have chosen to contact you because I believe you have the skillset necessary to fulfill this request to my client's satisfaction. You will be handsomely paid upon delivery, plus an advance to cover any prep expenses you may have. I'll meet you at Fairlight Grove CafΓ© come noon, don't be late.

@lofty lodge and @vale stirrup if you have any inquiries about factions, corporations or groups that may be present in the setting, don't hesitate to let me know. I run this setting from time to time and there's a chance you could replay your character, I'd be happy to work with you on developing connections, backstory and motivations.

Equinox armored convoy - maximum security vehicle, for very important people and objects. Vehicles designed to be able to handle difficult terrain, distractions, and lots of physical assault
probably escorted by powerful passengers, probably Neo Spartans? but only a few, probably only 1
cargo: unknown

Banking (likely) through Grand Spire

Planning and what Ξ›rtemis would explain she can contribute

  • Dispel Magic on the vehicle(s) to kill warding spells
  • Arcane Eye (at will) inside the trucks to determine which one is the correct one as Arcane Eye is "a point within range", but one does not have to see that point
  • I can cast Shutdown on the trucks, possibly killing the batteries or any other electronics within it for 1 minute.
  • Dimension Door me and one other person inside the correct truck once it has been identified and unlock it from the inside
  • Banishment or Dominate Monster on whomever is inside the truck once in or just get the driver with it, halting the vehicle.
  • Etherealness to get only myself inside (I'd rather not do that lol)
  • Arcane Eye to be an "eye in the sky" during the entire operation.
  • Suggestion and/or Mass Suggestion to stop the driver if the driver can hear me.
  • Silent Image (at will) to sew chaos amongst the protesters, hopefully giving us a distraction and more time if people are in the way (assuming they don't just run them down)
  • Information Surge (subclass ability) to shut it down similar to Shutdown but only until the end of my next turn
vale stirrup
#

Same:

  • Forcecage 20 ft mesh cube or 10 ft solid cube. Mesh to contain a single vehicle, solid to isolate an individual or cause a roadblock.
  • Enemy of the Weaver to disable a single spellcaster.
  • Invisibility to Cameras to make our setup a little more safe.

n immobile, invisible, cube-shaped prison composed of magical force springs into existence around an area you choose within range. The prison can be a cage or a solid box, as you choose. A prison in the shape of a cage can be up to 20 feet on a side and is made from 1/2-inch diameter bars spaced 1/2 inch apart.

A creature inside the cage can’t leave it by nonmagical means. If the creature tries to use teleportation or interplanar travel to leave the cage, it must first make a Charisma saving throw. On a success, the creature can use that magic to exit the cage. On a failure, the creature can’t exit the cage and wastes the use of the spell or effect. The cage also extends into the Ethereal Plane, blocking ethereal travel. This spell can’t be dispelled by dispel magic.

Smoke Bomb. As an action, the drone can propel a smoke bomb at a point up to 60 feet away. One round after it lands, it emits a cloud of smoke that creates a heavily obscured area in a 20-foot radius. A moderate wind (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses the smoke in 4 rounds; a strong wind (20 or more miles per hour) disperses it in 1 round. Once used, this action cannot be used again until the drone is manually reloaded.
