This is so undersized I don't want to talk about it. I wanted to add a lot more but unfortunately I'm out of time. Hope I made it. There were more CK's, scenery and political gubbins too be added, hope its interesting anyway.

The Client
Marcia Hanson - The BPN contact is a circuit agent for Velkra, partly
responsible for finding the more fashionable contract killers for Velkra to
sponsor. She resides at her place of work at a prestigious Uptown address.
Marcia has been born and bred in the relative safety of uptown all her life.
She does not understand, nor believe in the concepts of street cred and
hardship. In the competitive world of SLA marketing, she has been fortunate
to get in at the ground level of on of the most promising companies to come
by for years. Appearances, not practicalities, are most important too her.
Velkra is a relatively new company and thus shares business space in various buildings throughout Mort. The address on the BPN is a large sixty storey building with twenty three other businesses. Velkra leases the top ten floors of the building for it's Marketing, Human Resources and Acquisitions infrastructure.
The lobby and lifts of the building are well decked out in red/grey marble and brass. No weapons or armour are allowed inside and there are no storage facilities for anything larger than a Blitzer. Marcia Hanson's office lies on the third from topmost floor of the building. The office level she resides on is composed entirely of personal offices amongst a maze of corridors that lead into a central conference area. A secretary behind a solid steel reception bench can direct the Ops to Marcia's office.
Shaktars and Stormers will find the conditions cramped. People are constantly buzzing about the corridors, shouting at other people over the phone, swapping Executive drugs and generally getting in the way. Marcia's office has a commanding position overlooking the circular conference area, which is always alive with cliques and meetings.
Her office is fairly well appointed and free of paper. A large ninety centimetre Plasma screen TeeVee commands space on one wall. Her view looks out over uptown with Slayers Pyramid visible through the rain.
The BPN
Marcia herself will be immaculately dressed and cut into the very personification of advertising executive. She avoids talking to Stormers and aliens, she is a racist, elitist and asshole through and through.
Before being briefed the Operatives will be required to sign Non-Disclosre Aggreements as part of the BPN. This agreement, though not apparent on a brief scan, also waives any image usage rights not already covered by an existing contract with a SLA affiliated organisation. In effect, the Ops lose all royalty and usage rights for any Velkra obtained media material of them during the course of the BPN.
The mission is to bodyguard a circuit fighter sponsored by Velkra, Tudor Cutman. Through Tudor's efforts on the Uptown circuit, Velkra have garnered a lucrative Contract with Gorezone to use Tudor's image, wearing Velkra armoured clothing, in their latest run of promotional TeeVee ads and poster placements.
This, however, has come at the cost of dumping an existing contract with Dig Denims, yesterdays news as far as Gorezone were concerned. Unfortunately, as part of the deal Tudor is required to fight in two Gorezone death matches a month, and the first one has a substantial amount of Dig Denim sponsored killers in it.
Velkra have spent a great deal of money on Tudor and don't want him dead before he has generated a decent flow of revenue. The Ops mission is to protect him up too the match night and take measures to ensure that he survives. At no point are the operatives actions in accomplishing this to be exposed. Any plans to sabotage or target Tudor must be uncovered before the match, in three nights time, and dealt with accordingly.
She will provide them with a dossier of all the Contract Killers fighting in the match and a schedule of events for the next three days leading up too the match. The operatives are advised to research those involved in the match and pinpoint likely suspects for cheating. She doesn't care what they get up too as long as it is discreet and helps Tudor survive.
Marcia has sufficient power to create covers for the Ops as they see fit. Will suggest they be put on security for tomorrows media shoot. She will be unable to get them included in the Circuit fight itself, she has insufficient power for that.
The Players
Penelope Drake - Dig Denim circuit agent.
Penelope is the one that wants Tudor dead the most. She has been riling up
the killers, via their agents, for the upcoming match. She thinks that none
of them can beat Tudor one on one, so she has hired The One via a Dig Denim
subsidiary to specifically target Tudor. She has banked on this one
manoeuvre to disgrace Velkra and get back in the good books with her boss.
If it succeeds, Velkra will most likely be dropped by Gorezone and the Dig
contract will be renewed.
McGee - Frother, Rep 4 CK
McGee fancies himself quite the company rep of Dig Denims. The company
agent thinks he is a good fighter but as ugly as a hatful of assholes. He
is used mostly to back up other more attractive Dig Denim killers. McGee on
the other hand thinks it is they that back him up. He knows of the contract
dealings in regards to Tudor and will take every opportunity to target Tudor
both vocally and physically, but within the rules.
Evaluate opponent: McGee is strong and steadfast but has only ever fought
hand to hand matches before. His centre of gravity is very low which makes
him slow but unshakable. He wears custom PP10 and uses a chainaxe and UV.
He tends to beserk.
The One - Human, Rep 5 CK
The One is sponsored by FEN, and has been directly hired by Penelope Drake
to ensure Tudor doesn't leave the arena alive. The One idolises Sanction
and tries to emulate his every move. In fact, his moves are copies of
whatever Sanction did in his last bout, making The One very predictable. He
wears a silenced suit of Body Blocker with EM cape and a vibro sabre.
Evaluate Opponent: The One emulates Sanctions moves from his last bout,
making his strategy predictable as well as his moves. He is very stealthy
and fast, usually striking unawares from behind. Without prior study,
Sanction can appear to be a very dangerous opponent. He also targets Ebons
for an unknown reason, sometimes to the detriment of his standing.
Homeo - Ebon, Rep 4 CK
Homeo is a real ladies man. Most of the male population, as well as the
female population, of Mort see him as a big girls blouse. Young Ebon
females swoon over him however. Since launching a musical career in synch
with his circuit shenanigans, he has experienced a merchandising boom
unmatched by any other Rep 4 killer. He is hetero sexual, contrary to his
mincing ways, but very weepy and emotional when practicing it. He uses a
medium deathsuit and unpowered Ebb blade (same stats as a claymore).
Evaluate Opponent: Homeo loves to dance about his prey, more for show than
practical combat. He sings to wounded prey and prances about inordinately.
His speed and skill with his blade is not to be underestimated however, he
is a master at turning an opponents attack back on itself. He is not a
cheat and does not use Ebb in circuit matches.
Tudor Cutman - Human, Rep 4 CK
Tudor is a whining brat behind the scenes, a cold corporate killer in front
of the cameras. He lives a life of the perpetual catwalk, always walking in
style, standing in a pose and feigning sexy disinterest in his surroundings.
His mouth runs a little more freely, everything his been sent to cramp his
style as far as he is concerned. But despite his model antics he is
unusually strong for his build and a wily combatant. He wears Velkra
armoured cloth at all times and uses a Flick scythe.
Evalauate Opponent: Though the Flick Scythe is a cumbersome weapon Tudor
wields it with skill. His usual tactic is to wear his opponent down by
constantly blocking and feinting. When his opponent is spent he takes his
time to wind up the scythe for a single killing blow. The leverage of the
scythe suits this move well. Unknown to all but Oppenhiemers Vibro repairs
and modifications, Tudors flick scythe can switch the blade outwards to run
level with the handle. This makes the scythe easier to use as a
conventional weapon.
