Nik,Nik goes back to examining the surveillance videos. It's very tedious work, especially because he has only the slimmest idea what he's even looking for.
But at around Six he thinks he sees something. There on the casino floor is a black woman. She's dressed in a sharp suit and wearing John Lennon style shades. She moves purposefully through the crowd while holding a briefcase, not stopping at or even appearing to notice any of the slots around her.
[ooc]Rolled your HUMINT here. Nik passed.[/ooc]
The briefcase looks big enough to hold the files they had received, Nik reasons. But something else also catches his eye; the woman keeps her head down, and uses the crowd as much as she can to obscure the view of the cameras. As a result, it's only a few stills where he's able to get a reasonably clear picture of her. Based on this behavior Nik thinks it's likely she's a professional of some sort. Military? CIA?
[ooc]Well done. Nik was pretty clever here and accomplished a lot. I think we're going to pause him here until the others catch up and return from their own adventures, but if you have any final thoughts for Nik feel free to offer them up. :)[/ooc]
Everyone else,[ooc]Given the situation, I don't think it's unreasonable to rule both you guys brought your own sidearms and vests to the scene, anticipating trouble.[/ooc]
"[color=#008000]No, but feel free to take Garrett's. He's in no position to use it[/color]."
As one of the state troopers tends to Garrett, the sheriff continues.[color=#008000]" No positive ID yet. As far as I know this is the only way into the cave. But he's not fired for awhile, so we have to consider that he retreated further into the cave. It goes a ways back. We also have to consider that he might have hostages in the shaman.
"I'm going to try and take advantage of the opening and breech[/color]." He looked towards his men. "[color=#008000]Cover me. First sign of trouble duck behind rocks[/color]."
Then he turns to the agents. "[color=#008000]Any of you three want to come with me?[/color]"
