LVN01 - THE DELIAN DATA TOMB
BY /U/LEVENTNOIR
The human looked over the hustle of activity. The Delian
Data Tomb LLC was going under. Well, there went four
weeks careful planning and operation and now it was time to
inform her client that more drastic measures would be
needed. Independent operators.
A FIRST SHADOWRUN
The purpose of this document is to help a first (or
experienced) time GM take some new players and play
Shadowrun. While this is mechanically suited for 5th
Edition, the themes and setting should be easily adaptable.
This is a Game Master only document, as it contains
details about opposition and information that plays should
discover through play.
The starting point for any Role Playing Game should be a
Session Zero. This is a conversation about what themes,
scenes, morals, and limits. This is especially important in a
game with dark themes and actions, such as Shadowrun.
This Geek and Sundry pages gives a good overview.
After you have talked over what is acceptable or not, you
will need a Game Master (GM), pens, pencils, dice, and some
characters. You can make your own, or you can use
/u/Bamce's pregenerated starting characters.
The Game Master should read over this entire document
and familiarise themselves with it, then we can get into the
game.
DELIAN DATA TOMB
Delian Data Tomb is a multi stage introduction to the basics
of shadowrunning as commonly presented. It poses common
styles of opponents, targets, employers and crimes. The GM
should let players who come up with effective solutions to
succeed, and to trust in the skills and knowledge of the
characters. Most of all, Shadowrun is not a game of fighting
your way through, but solving the problem posed in the way
that you are most comfortable and skilled at.
This run assumes an urban setting, but can be easily
adapted to whatever location you wish.
Lessons are presented in red text, and are
intended to be read to players after resolving the
relevant portion of the run.
GM help is presented in white boxes, and help the GM with
handling various parts of the run that might be delicate,
difficult or unfamiliar.
OVERVIEW
Alexis Francosia, a local Business Intelligence Analyst at
Lymwoods Holding Company, has been asked to learn the
intended recipient of a shipping package that was routed
through the city docks some years ago. The shipping
company had archived all information in the Delian Data
Tomb LLC. and an operation was on to extract the required
data. However, the Delian Data Tomb has gone into
receivership, and a new approach is needed.
The data sought is located on a host currently offline, in
the safe of the CEO, and in paper form with an archivist.
The runners will have to deal with the security of the
building proper, the security for the Delian Data Tomb
specifically, and locate the data.
This is meant to be an introductory Shadowrun so there are a
number of general principles that should be followed to
make it easier for the players.
The characters should be considered professional enough
to automatically notice any security devices or details that
aren't mentioned to require a perception check. Announce
their presence as part of the narration of the scene when
characters first encounter them.
Additionally, it would be easy (Threshold 1 Security
Procedures or Security Devices knowledge skill) for a
character to recognise what the device / procedure is and at
least one way to neutralise it.
If a character does not have the exact knowledge skill
listed, one that is close enough may be used instead.
THE MEET
One of the players gets a call from a fixer they know sort of
ok. "Chummer. I got a job. Total Milk Run. Now if you want
more details, you'll come to the 5th floor of the office building
at 14th street, two hours from now."
The runners will have to scramble to get to the meet
location, and will have to travel across town to get there.
While shadowrunners with cars will be able to drive right
outside the meet location before Gridguide sends the car to a
parking garage, those without will have to walk or get the bus.
Regardless, the downtown location is too well patrolled and
observed to get away with heavy armament or armour.
Ask the characters what armour, weapons and items they are
bringing to the meet, and if they describe something that
will cause them problems, call for a Threshold 1 check on
an Area Knowledge skill. If successful, the character
recognises the poor idea.
1
 On the journey there, describe the AR in the air. The weird
magic the gangers are using to mug people. Take the
advanced and the fantastic, then make it dirty, dark and
normal.
Arriving at the location, there's no specific security apart
from what might be in the general area. The corp with the
law contract is on patrol, and will arrest and detain anyone
carrying overt weapons or armour: Anything heavier than an
armoured jacket, or larger than a pistol. The character will be
fined 500n¥ if the weapon is Restricted. If the weapon is
Forbidden, it will be a 3000n¥ fine and the character will be
detained for six hours, causing them to miss the meet.
Lesson: This game is one where the characters
are operating in a setting with a system of law
put in place to profit and control. While laws can
be broken, and security evaded, picking an open
fight with the law is a poor idea.
When the characters enter the office building at the location
given, they find that the lobby is empty apart from an
automated information system that shows that the 5th floor
is being renovated between tenants. The 5th floor is open,
missing anything but the bare walls, and a man of
indeterminate age, ethnicity, and status stands waiting for
you, flanked by one huge, hulking troll enhanced with
cybernetics and a dwarf, mystical patterns tattooed into her
face. The Mr Johnson is at the meet.
The Mr Johnson is Alexis Francosia, and he has pulled
some strings with his contacts to get a new, untested, but
cheap team to try them out on a low risk job. The troll is his
bodyguard Krogar, and the dwarf is a corporate mage Ms
Colleen.
As the runners approach, the Mr Johnson smiles, and
opens his arms. "Hello. Let's be brief. Delian Data Tomb has
just gone into receivership. They are located a few blocks
from here, and currently are being liquidated. I'm willing to
pay for one specific bit of information: Who was the recipient
of shipping order 81218451?"
The troll and dwarf stay silent through the entire
proceedings, and only act if the Runners become
threatening or hostile. If the characters do this, step out of
character and talk about why they are doing this. Being
violent now causes the job to never occur and the session
to end.
The runners might have many questions, and Mr Johnson
will answer them as long as they are not overly tiresome. The
characters might ask some of the following questions of the
Mr Johnson. He is willing to answer, and has reasonable
information about the job in general.
Where is the data? A: Assumedly on the host, whose
general matrix connections have been severed and only
slaved devices can still connect. Otherwise, look for
datachips.
What is the opposition? A: The security contract is active
until the end of the liquidation, so expect a Bronze
Corporate defense Contract.
2
What's the timeline? A: Once the liquidation is complete
the data will be burned. I expect no more than two or
three days. Don't bother contacting me if you can't get the
data.
How do we contact you? A: Leave a datachip with the info
in locker 931 at the metro. Come one day later for the
credstick if I approve.
After the back and forth, the Mr Johnson makes an initial
offer of 5,000n¥ per character. If players wish to negotiate,
test one characters Negotiation + Charisma [Social] vs 12
dice. Mr Johnson will pay an extra 500n¥ per net hit on this
test.
The Mr Johnson leaves with the dwarf, and the troll
remains for five minutes to stop the runners following. The
Mr Johnson and Dwarf take the time to scan for bugs, and
retreat to a bar nearby for a few hours.
Lesson: Mr Johnson wants the team to succeed.
Mr Johnson knows information. Mr Johnson
doesn't want to overpay runners. Mr Johnson has
protection. Mr Johnson is anonymous.
DELIAN DATA TOMB
If the players don't start the run on their own, it's fine for
their Fixer to ring them and ask if the Meet went well. The
GM can use this character to suggest that the runners go
investigate the target location.
The location of the Delian Data Tomb is easily learned, with a
Threshold 3 Area Knowledge Check, or a Threshold 1 Matrix
Search. A Threshold 3 Matrix Search will additionally reveal
that Delian Data Tomb is an unrated corp in receivership. It
provided secure, long term data storage services to clients,
and was doing well until involved in a corporate political
scandal some weeks ago. Clients fled, and contracts elapsed,
causing the corp to go under and be bought up for a song. If
any of the players call up any business related contacts or
have an appropriate knowledge roll, they may learn this
information as well.
Researching the location of their offices further, or going to
observe reveals that the Delian Data Tomb comprises of four
floors in a office tower block in a C rated security zone.
Observant runners will note a corporate security drone on
patrol every 5 minutes, and a car patrol every half hour.
If the runners take some time to look around and observe,
mention the Data Liberators. These are a street gang with
many highly augmented members carrying scratch build
electronics, and weird polo shirt / denim jacket combination
clothing. A Threshold 2 Gangs knowledge skill check would
reveal that this gang is ideologically opposed to secure data,
and has been harassing the employees of the liquidating
corporation. They might also harass the shadowrunners if
they look too corporate.
The Data Liberators can be used as an avenue to push the
players, by offering money for any data they can steal. "Hoi.
You look like some freedom of information types. How would
you like to help our ideals, and make a bit of money?" Have
the data liberator tell the character that getting in should be
easy enough but the corpsec keep on kicking the gangers out.
The gangers are offering 1,000n¥ for whatever data the
characters can steal. If the players ask if the gangers can
help, they'll charge 2,000n¥ to cause a distraction with a fight
at the front entrance, causing three of the four guards at the
loading dock to leave and assist. If a fight breaks out with the
Data Liberators due to poor conversation or overt threats,
use six Professional rating 1 Street Scum.
The Data Liberators aren't directly linked into this run but are
rather a flavour aspect. Don't force any interactions or fights.
The main entrance to the tower block is up a short flight of
stairs from road level, which combined with the ram proof
bollards make vehicular assault nearly impossible. Set
slightly back from the road, the main approach leads through
a small courtyard set with shrubs. The external walls are
made of concrete (Structure 12, Armour 20), with the
external glass doors and windows made of ballistic glass
(Structure 8, Armour 12).
If the runners walk into the main entrance they will find
themselves in a lobby with four human Professional Rating 2
security guards who require all visitors to pass through a
rating 3 MAD Scanner arch and subject any bags to X-Ray.
Additionally, they will perform a Rating 2 SIN check on any
Shadowrunners if the guards notice any weapons. If the
runners fail the MAD scanner, have unlicensed or forbidden
items, the security guards will refuse entry.
The runners should notice all of these features and expect
the response. Runners can bypass the madscanner and X-ray
with Palming checks contested by the guards Perception
skill. Alternatively, smooth talking runners might Con the
guards, or Negotiate a bribe. Pulling weapons and shooting
the guards is a valid option, but pulling weapons and
Intimidating can also work.
If runners want to search for an unguarded entrance, let
them, revealing a locked side door hidden down an alleyway.
Encourage and reward inventive solutions to the puzzles that
characters encounter.
Should it come to a fight, these guards, as well as the ones in
the offices of the Delian Data Tomb are little more than rent-
a-cops, meant to deter muggers, escort out fired employees,
and call for backup. If the corpsec encounter a
shadowrunner or other intruder, their course of action will be
to radio the incident, then escort the runner offsite.
The guards are equipped with biomonitors, and a major
injury or unconsciousness will trigger a silent alarm after one
minute unless confirmed to not be a problem. A guard's
death will trigger an HTR callout immediately.
However, if the runner is obviously armed or violent, the
first action is to call in High Thread Response then attempt a
delaying action with pepper punch rounds, retreating, and
delaying. The building has its own Bronze Corporate defense
Contract, and thus, High Threat Response will arrive in 1d6
x 5 minutes after being called. Use approximately 10-20
Professional Rating 5 opponents who arrive in a VTOL or
armoured truck.
Make it clear to your players that fighting these HTR units is
suicide. They are specialist response units for eliminating
shadowrunners that are extremely dangerous. Runners
should be very aware when HTR are on the way with multiple
alarms going off. They would also know they have a limited
time to escape.
A similar security checkpoint is present at the rear of the
building where vehicles can enter an underground loading
dock, but there is an additional Rating 4 Olfactory Scanner to
check for explosives or ammunition.
The olfactory scanner is powerful enough to reliably detect
explosives and ammunition, so runners breaking in this
entrance would know to not to bring such items unless they
disable the sensor or are willing to set off the alarm.
Lesson: Targets are protected. The protection
calls for backup. Fighting your way in isn't the
best approach.
Lesson: Injuries can be explained away or
dismissed, but major escalation will result in
major escalation of response.
Lesson: There are multiple factions and groups
present, and opportunities for profit might arise
just as easily as they cause dangerous problems.
THE OFFICE FLOOR
Once inside the office building proper, the runners can take
the stairs or the lift to the 8th through 11th floors. These are
the floors that Delian Data Tomb operated from. The stairs
are only unlocked on the 8th floor with the doors to the 9th,
10th and 11th floors locked. The lift requires a keycard
before traveling to the 9th, 10th or 11th floors.
The runners will recognise that a keycard would be needed,
and if they attempt to bypass the keycard reader they should
be allowed to go to the floor they wish, but will be lacking
the information as to where to be looking for the
information.
3
 There is no active magical security, but as part of the
security contract, a force 3 ward covers the four floors of the
Dalian Data Tomb. Once an hour a force 3 spirit will move
through the astral, assensing for magical auras of force 4 or
greater. If such a powerful disturbance is noted, an astrally
projecting PR3 security mage will investigate further, and if
needed, call HTR.
If the runners attempt to enter the floors with active spells
or foci, then an astral intersection may occur.
Any character with astral perception should be offered a
chance to astrally perceive and notice the ward. If the
character does not, then have them roll a Threshold 2
Security Procedures test, and on a success suggest that
there are often magical defenses at corporate sites.
Lesson: Some defenses are passive. Others are
monitored, and some only care about specific
actions.
The runners can freely enter the offices from the 8th floor as
the reception is unmanned and the main security door open.
The offices are separated from the lifts and stairs by ballistic
glass (Structure 8, Armour 12), while internal walls are much
weaker plastiboard (Structure 4, Armour 6).
Looking into the offices, the runners will see approximately
15 people in the process of disassembling a Option 4a
Standard Corporate Office (Cubicle Layout). The partitions
are being unscrewed and stacked, while chairs and desks are
being stacked up.
Sharp eyed shadowrunners will notice with a Threshold 2
Perception Check that there are two more Professional
Rating 2 security guards per floor, and with a Threshold 3
Perception Check that there are Rating 3 Motion Sensors
and Rating 3 Cameras, approximately 10 of each. These
were slaved to the host, but are not currently. If the motion
sensor is triggered between 21:00 and 6:00, it will call
security to investigate. The cameras are loaded with weapon
detection software, and will alert security if they see any
weapon that requires any license or is forbidden.
Players may be hesitant to operate around cameras and
motion sensors, and will attempt to avoid, disable, or hack
them. Avoiding the cameras is a Sneaking test vs 4 dice,
while avoiding the motion sensors is laid out in SR5 631.
The cameras and motion sensors can be disabled by
shooting or otherwise breaking them and because they are
not networked to anything, will not raise alarms. Hacking the
cameras will be very time consuming, as each Edit File
action can only edit 2-3 seconds of video. Overall, the best
course of action is the chance of alarms being triggered by
entering during the day, and not visibly armed. These settings
are common, and can be guessed with a Threshold 2
Security Procedures test.
4
Lesson: Multiple layers of security exist, and are
varied in nature. Some is difficult to disable, but
easy to avoid by limiting your options.
The runners may enter the 8th floor and walk around, but if
they do not blend into the blue collar labourers with a
Threshold 2 etiquette check, security will come to throw
them out. Additionally, clothing that does not fit a Low
Lifestyle also causes suspicion, and a security approach.
While the liquidation is occurring, there is a much laxer
social security presence, with the trained receptionist and
counter social infiltrator having been fired already. The
receiver overseer, a Julienne Andrews, is in charge, but due
to the number of contractors and temp workers, will only call
for security if the runners cannot produce an id badge.
However, if the runners can bluff their way past the overseer
(resisting Con with 9 dice), the overseer can answer any
appropriate questions, such as where the host is, or where
the CEO's office might be.
Characters should automatically notice if they would stand
out due to clothing. A character wishing to pickpocket a id
badge should roll a Palming test against the 4 perception
dice of the labourer.
Lesson Some security is social. Blending in can
stop you being spotted and questioned. Having
id and good explanations can avoid problems.
Once the runners have managed to enter the offices without
alerting any security forces, they should be attempting to
find the data required. There are a number of options which
they could pursue.
By asking around or simply exploring, the characters could
learn the following possibilities.
1. The Host. It is currently offline and up on the 9th floor.
2. The CEO's office. He suffered in the Crash 2.0, and keeps
datachip backup of important client information in a safe
in his office on the 11th floor.
3. The Archive is a paper based backup system that
occupies the 10th floor.
The runners will need to borrow or steal a keycard from
one of the liquidating labourers to access these floors. A
Negotiation or Intimidation check against 6 dice will have a
keycard handed over, and a 50n¥ bribe will also get the
keycard handed over. Alternatively, the Rating 3 Maglock on
the door or the Rating 3 Keycard reader can be disabled.
Lesson: There may be multiple options and paths
to success in a shadowrun, investigate which is
best for your team's skillset.
THE SECURE FLOORS
The 9th, 10th and 11th floors are secured against the
general public, and have the same security guards, sensor
presence and wards as the 8th floor. However, these floor
have nobody apart from the two security guards actively
moving around in them.
This is because the liquidators have not reached these
areas yet. The only non-guard on these floors is the
liquidating Spider, known as Calculatrix. She is on the 9th
floor and working in VR to inventory the host as well as what
electronics can be sold for.
She has a Hermes Chariot cyberdeck which she is using to
plug directly into a Host terminal. The Deck is running a
Rating 4 Agent that is looking for interesting icons on the
secure floors every 5 minutes, and will first investigate, then
raise the alarm if icons of any non civilian items are noted.
Additionally, if the spider or the agent spots a cyberdeck or
any F rated augmentations or weapons, the spider will call
HTR. Being a corporate spider, she will not attempt to hack
or engage in matrix combat with the characters.
If none of the party are deckers or technomancers, and have
wirelessly active items what would cause an HTR respones,
step OOC and explain the characters are walking into secure
areas and do not know what is out there. Items running
wirelessly are easily able to be spotted and could alert
security. The security response to forbidden items in a
secure area could be extreme.
If there is a decker or technomancer, the character is able to
spot the spider if they make a Matrix Perception test.
Lesson: There might be security which is able to
detect you without you knowing it is there.
Whenever possible, minimise the chance you
might be detected.
THE HOST
The first location the players can find the data is on the Host.
The Host is a Rating 3 host (A4, S3, D6, F5) that can only be
accessed from one of three Terminals, one on each of the
secure Floors. Merely plugging into the terminal will give
access to the Host. The host has an architecture and layout
reflective of the corporate offices, and the Spider is present
with her Avatar of a shirtsleeved accountant. A Patrol IC is
present in the form of a jumpsuited labourer. If the Host
detects an intruder, it will launch Probe and Track IC.
The data is a file in a impossibly large filing cabinet, and
requires a Threshold 1 Matrix Search to find. It is not
encrypted nor databombed.
If the players attack or hack the spider and she notices, she
will immediately call security and trigger an HTR response.
This close to the target information, the runners should have
time to grab the data and run out before anything too
serious arrives.
THE SAFE
The second location the players can investigate is the CEOs
office. This office is among the executive offices, and is easily
found from AR and physical nameplates. This office is built
out of densiplast (Structure 8, Armour 12). In addition, a
rating 5 Maglock and Keycard reader secure the door, and
the keycard is with the CEO at their home. If the characters
force the door, a Rating 3 Proximity Wire in the carpet will
alert security. This wire will disarm if the lock is disengaged.
The safe is obvious in the wall, but the code is unknown,
and will require a Threshold 5 Locksmith Test to crack.
Alternatively, it can be ripped out of the wall, and opened by
breaking a hole in its Structure 8, Armour 16 case. Use of
thermite will likely destroy the datachips inside.
THE ARCHIVE
The Archive is the last location where the data is stored.
Taking up the entire 10th floor, it was considered a easy
assignment by the two security guards, who are patrolling
the easy to check aisles of storage.
If the characters wish to search the Archive, they will soon
realise it's a difficult prospect, and it will require a
Perception + Intuition [Mental] (18, 1 Minute) Extended Test.
Additionally, if the guards are still patrolling, the players will
need to hide to avoid them, requiring a Stealth skill check vs
6 dice every 1 minute.
Lesson: There are multiple ways to obtain the
objectives, and planning and research will reveal
them.
DATA IN HAND, THE CHARACTERS
LEAVE THE DATA TOMB
If the characters obtain one of the three copies of the data,
they can then call the Mr Johnson if they obtained a
commcode. Either way, they will have to leave a datachip with
the info in locker 931 at the metro.
Once past the initial ring of security around the Dalian
Data Tomb, the security contract doesn't provide for pursuit,
so the PCs are away. They might be on file somewhere, but
that's not a problem for now, there's no profit in hunting
them.
If the players place surveillance on the locker, at 7am each
day, Mr Johnson will come by and check it. If the datachip is
there, he will slot it, and if he seems happy, leave the
appropriate amount of money and a commcode in the locker
in return. Mr Francosia may even have repeat work.

 Lesson: The system wants to work, it's in WRAP UP
everyone's interest to be effective, professional, Once the players are safe, use the table on 372 of the core
and get the agreed upon crime done. If you do rulebook to calculate Karma, or just give the players 5 for a
so, then the system will care less about you. success or 3 for a failure. Then talk over what went well,
There is no profit in pursuit, if you get away and
it's not personal, you've done good.

where they might go next.

REALISE THEY'RE IN DREK GMing, Challenge and Power
Writing Good Crimes for Shadowrun
High Threat Response is a response unit specifically Rule Zero: Shadowrunners Exist
designed to stop professional shadowrunners and other high
skill criminals. They arrive 1d6 x 5 minutes after being
called, but expect the first police response (4 Professional Anyone can GM, best of luck, and have fun!
Rating 3 police in a patrol car) to arrive 1d6 minutes after
being called. The police will set up a perimeter, and process
people through it with Rating 4 SIN scans. More police will
continue to arrive until approximately 50-60 police form a
complete perimeter.
High Threat Response is a group of 10-20 Professional
Rating 5 opponents who arrive in a VTOL or armoured truck.
HTR always comes with high strength matrix, magical and
vehicular support. They will come in via the most direct and
violent method, with shock, awe, and armour piercing
rounds. They are trying to neutralise the PCs as quickly as
possible, and don't care about keeping them alive.
The characters will know the capabilities of HTR, and if
they realise that HTR is on the way, running and failing the
job may be a smarter idea. A failed job, and possibly dead
characters is not something that should put you off GMing,
nor your players off playing. Talk OOC about your decisions,
and how the players made decisions. You can always run this
module again.

It can be hard to bring down such an unbalanced response on

your players, especially on what might your and their first
time playing. It's ok. Shadowrunners tend to start off with
most of the skills and gear they might end up with straight
out of character creation. If a character dies, or a player
wants to change character, the group will not be hindered by
the new player.
If the entire team dies, then talk about it, and make sure
everyone is ok with it. Then pick up the campaign with new
shadowrunners. One of the in setting reasons for using
shadowrunners is because they are easy to get a hold of and
are disposable. Mr Johnson doesn't care if you die, there's
always more in the shadows hoping for that better life, or
just any break that will do.

Lesson: Lesson: Not every run is a success.

Failure can mean abandoning the job, capture, or
death.
