<span style='color:orange'>*Estella watches the man jerk suddenly awake. She is sitting on a small chair next to the bed, with a notepad and pen in hand. She waits a minute before speaking softly.* “Hi, my name is Estella – I’m a final year medical student at the university, and we’ve been asked to help out after the bombings. You’ve just been shot, and I’m pleased to say that the operation was successful. You’ll remain on antibiotics and other intravenous fluids for now, but the doctor who performed the operation says that you’ll return to full health. I just need to take a medical history, so I’d appreciate your co-operation in this matter.”</span>
<b><span style='color:red'>"Name's Anthony Wilson. If you can get in touch with them, my med history is at St. Vincents Hospital in Toowoomba Queensland Australia." *He shakes Estella's hand, while keeping her from seeing his remaining eye*</span></b>
'Great, now i don't know who is after me.' "Thanx alot for your help." He takes the money and leaves the room and goes back into the bar. 'Now what? Get another job?' He glances around for any customers that may hire him.</span>
<b>Darkness, it was aimed at you. An even if the cause wasn't genetic manipulation, you're still not in a world with shapeshifters.</b>
<i>Terran - There's a few random polish magazines lying on a table by the bed.
Bill - Once inside the station, the policeman talks to one of the other policemen, then returns to you. "Excuse me sir, could I have your name and nationality again?"
Sparks - It doesnt take long before someone contacts you witha job: "Hey, you look like you could use some money. See, I'm running this business protecting the local stores, but recently another fellow has been taking my costumers away from me, hurting the business. They call him "the tiger". Supposedly he lives in the hotel nearby. I wonder if I could persuade you to take care of him?"</i>
<span style='color:DarkKhaki'>"Colin Banks, British... Why, is there a problem? And I've found out that I've been hit in the leg... Can I have some medical attention here?"</span>
<i>Bill - "It seems the files on you haven't been confirmed for five years, and it seems you are presumed dead. It might take a while to fix. As for the medical attention, I'm afraid we can't help you there. But why didn't you tell us before?"
Spark - "Can't say I do. All I know is what people say. So, can you help me?"</i>
<b>You just gotta love the way bill is like: "Oh, by the way, I just noticed I have a bullet in my leg."

Wyzak paces the room as he waits for Jack to finish his decryption. Walking over to the boarded up windows, he takes a peek between the slats out at nightime Warszawa. At night, the damage to Warszawa doesn't seem too bad at first glance as the darkness hides the scars of the bombings.
Sighing, Wyzak turns to look at Jack who had just finished decoding the note. Wordlessly, Jack hands Wyzak the decoded message and then leans back on his chair and closes his eyes. Looking down at paper that Jack passed to him, Wyzak's face turns into a serious frown.
"A hit job eh? Wonder if there's a smarter way than killing them. Who are these guys anyway?". Looking at the list, Wyzak tries to remember if he knows any of these people.</span>
<i>Bill - He looks at the wound. "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid you will have to live with it untill we can confirm your identity." The policeman walks to a computer and starts searching for your merc company.
Zero - You know the Adash guy. He is a major player in the russian mafia scene, and is rumored to be cooperating heavily with the U.E.N. No matter what his connections are, he has proven to be a major pain in the butt for the resistance, since he seems, for some reason, to want to eradicate all of you. Also, he's the kind of guy who's known to order people killed if they are five minutes late for a meeting. The other two are other people with different syndicate connections, though you're not sure exactly what their connections are.</i>
"May be able to help you out, do you mind telling me what people say about him? So i have some useful information, don't want to end up killing everyone in the hotel just to find hes out at work."</span>
<span style='color:DarkKhaki'><b>Location: The police station.</b> "Yeah, sure. Do you mind if I borrow a bandage, though? I'd prefer not to bleed everywhere."</span> <b>A quick clarification please; Colin has surrendered his weapons, right? And if so, will he get them back?</b>
<b>I'll edit the post so that he was just wearing a glove with long claws. A knife wound would be thiner than the scar on my characters face, so it had to be inflicted by something with a sharp point and got thicker as you moved down it. Like a claw.</b>
<i>Spark - "Listen, I don't know anything. The costumers won't pay, because they say the tiger told them not to. People say he lives at the hotel. That's it, that's all I have."
Bill - The policeman gets up, walking towards the door; "Sure, just a second". Then he returns with a roll of bandages. After a while, it seems another officer finds the files from your mercenary company. "Ok, we have the files. It seems your citizenship is not accepted by the british databases though. But it should be a simple matter for us to fix a freelancer pass for you through the mercenary authorities. I'm going to have to ask for 10$ to cover expenses though."</i>
"All right i'll do it, don't expect him dead in five minutes, this may take some time this hit." He leaves the man and walks outside and heads for the hotel. 'So all we know is that this guy lives in a hotel and his name is the tiger, he could be armed with 600 body guards and made of steel for all i know, better take this one slowly.' He arrives at the hotel and walks inside, he asks the receptionist if there is a person called 'the tiger' here.</span>
<span style='color:DarkKhaki'>"Money could be a little problem right now..." *Colin checks his pockets, looking for any money. All that he is able to find is the coin Raziel gave him in the church* "...This is all the cash I have on me, and I don't have my wallet. Knew I should have gone back for it when I left the hotel..." *He accepts the bandages, and drops his trousers to allow access to the wound before starting to bandage it up* "...Thanks... Anyway, I can't remember my bloody account number. I suppose I can't earn any money until I get the paperwork?"</span>
<b>Updated the skill descriptions on the main page. The purpose of some of the skills were a bit unclear. If you want to adjust, or completely change, your stats, feel free to PM me.</b>
<i>Spark - The receptionist looks at you with a brief expression of shock on his face, then goes back to a calm face. "Sorry sir, I don't believe I have the right to reveal information about guest staying at the hotel".
Bill - "Oh well, since this place has been turned into a mess by the bombs, I think I can let you pass for now. But I won't be able to get you a passport, sorry. Just need you to answer me a few questions about this guy who got shot, just for the report.
Do you know his name, or anything else about his identity? Could you describe the events that lead to his injury in detail? Do you know of anyone we should contact regarding his injury?"</i>
<span style='color:DarkKhaki'>*Colin ties off the bandage and pulls his trousers up* "All I know is that he introduced himself to me as Anthony when we met in the bar.
As for the events leading up to him being hit? Well, to be honest, I don't recall all that well, as I wasn't expecting things to kick off when they did. Anyway, Anthony got up and headed into a backroom, said he was heading off to the toilet. He'd barely got through the door when there was a burst of fire. I turned and saw Anthony sloutching over. I guessed he'd been hit, so I got up and ran over to him, and at about the same time the barman started heading to the door. I guess one of the punters stood up and fired at the barman, because he went down. There was another couple of bursts of firing as I got to the door and picked up Anthony. I'd say that it was then that I got hit in the leg, but I had other things to worry about than the pain right then. I then dragged him out of the bar and looked for a phone.
I don't know any contact details, I mean I'd only just met the man! I didn't even know his last name."</span>

Terran - There's a restaurant in the main hall. Walking down there, you see a mostly empty room. By the counter you see Sarlex standing, talking to the receptionist.
