Stalkers RPG: Dustwoken - Main Action and Team Status [SEASON 1]

[Neo Emolga]

Guess I'll search the (25) Seabourne Office Plaza exterior.

With the arrival of the new day, you get up early and Benni share some of her fruit and berry danishes and breakfast pastries with you, along with some freshly squeezed berry juice. After enjoying the deliciousness of them, it feels refreshing and invigorating before you head out and decide to investigate the Seabourne Office Plaza to see if there’s anything hiding there. It doesn’t seem like the most threatening area in town, but that doesn’t rule it out as it being a place that has its own dark secrets.

You step out the door and the air feels better today than it did yesterday and it does seem like more Pokémon are out and about. After heading south and making the walk there from the farmstead, you decide there’s really only enough time to search the exterior. The interiors of the office sections will need to wait until later.

At first, the exterior grounds don’t seem to be that much in disarray. They seem as though they were still being maintained until only fairly recently, and you imagine it’s mainly because whoever the landscaper is might have prioritized their life before their work and have fled town or are still in hiding trying to protect themselves. Either that… or they were recently killed…

The plants and shrubs seem to be a bit overgrown, but in general they’re still in good health and don’t look like they’ve become diseased. The stone paths and walls seem to be in good condition as well. Closing your eyes and using your Savant senses gives you a clue and feeling as though the Stalkers haven’t been here. But you still get the feeling that something else that’s surreal has been around.

You manage to track it down as another mysterious presence when you get to the back of the Brixel building. It’s easy to mistake a very old-looking metallic hatch as an abandoned underground maintenance area, and it seems most Pokémon have completely ignored it and haven’t been curious enough to mess with it. Instead, you use your armored hands to scrape away the dirt and debris and there’s definitely more to this hatch than what meets the eye. Had it not been for your heightened senses, you feel you definitely would have missed it as well.

The entrance to an underground vault is here, and you’re familiar with this kind of presence. At one point, Black Moon was using this and it bares similar markings and essence, but age and the weather have made it easy to overlook. It also seems like this vault existed here long before these office buildings did.

You try to open it by pulling on the metallic latch, but it seems like there’s a major missing component. There’s a rectangular slit that looks like it was supposed to contain a highly mechanized key of some sort, and it almost seems familiar…

{Shadow Vault: Vault Key Mechanism} has been noted in the Team Records.

You then realize you have the mechanism key back at the farmstead, but it’s still in pieces and in need of repair. Once completed, it should be able to slide and lock into the slit and then allow the door to be opened. In fact, you believe you may not even need to pull on it and it should be powered enough to slide open on its own once the mechanism is in place.

After another brief look around, you don’t find anything else that seems to stand out as suspicious, but you are wondering what exactly that old vault is hiding, and if it’s possibly connected to the Black Moon Weapons.

If it is… you know you’re going to want to get in there as soon as possible…
