Mission:Sacrifices Must Be Made - Part One: Hush, Little Girl

Part One: Hush, Little Girl

Briefing

Some sicko is wandering the streets. It likes to cut things, and it's taken a liking to cutting up on Seers. TPN nicknamed him Cutter Cain, but nothing so far indicates that this monster is male, or a man for that matter.

The PPD have been spinning their wheels for weeks on this case, Character. Forty Seers missing... but only two dozen bodies have shown up, so far. Cain's holding them somewhere, and then dumping the bodies around the city when it's done with them. We've gotta find where Cain's victims are being kept and get to them before its knife does!

• Help Stop Cutter Cain.

We've got no perpetrators, no suspects, nothing! The Seers can't find Cain, and they never see it coming. Until now...

Cain finally slipped up. Got someone to help out and that someone got his mind read by one of our Seers, right before she disappeared.

We picked out this address from the Seer's last thought transmission. It's a warehouse in Logos. Character, I want you to get to that warehouse and rescue that Seer before she ends up like the others.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Autopsies confirm that the victims were alive when the implants were chopped out of them. That Cutter Cain takes pleasure in torturing its victims means there is that much extra time to save them.

Resistance Dialogue

Before Combat:

Resistance Fighter: That wasn't pretty...

Resistance Fighter: You should've glimpsed Cain's first chop-job.

Seer 0228

Briefing

You can tell you are too late before you even check for a pulse. The poor Seer lies crumpled on the ground. At least she seems to have found peace, despite the damage Cutter Cain and his Resistance friends did to her before she slipped away.

• Leave

	Seer 0228
	You found Seer 0228, but she was already dead. It looks like someone took a knife or a scalpel to her and tried to dig out the cybernetic implants in her head. The disturbing thing is by the look of agony frozen on her face she either woke up during the process, or was awake the entire time.

Cutter Cain? Dialogue

Before Combat:

Cutter Cain?: Doc said not all the canaries want to fly.

Cutter Cain?: If this works then we may have found a chink in the armor.

	Doctor Who?
	One of the kidnappers mentioned following the doctor's plan. You questioned them, but didn't get much more out of them other than he wasn't Cutter Cain. You resolve to let Interrogator Kang handle the question and answer session, but it's obvious that there is someone else pulling the strings here.

Debriefing

You found some equipment from Pharmatek Global, huh?

That would be a good logical next step. Before we do that, however, I want to see what information we can get out of those perpetrators you brought in.

So far all I've learned is that Cutter Cain is male, and he's a doctor. Looks like TPN wasn't too far off.

We're going to have to keep in touch if we're going to have any hope of solving this case. Here's my cell number. Call me whenever you get a lead. With coordination we will find Cutter Cain.
