Name(s) of Character(s) Involved: Drift (fastandcurious), Spinister (optionwhatever) Summary of Plot: The area around Excelsior, WA, has seen a weird rise in an extremely odd category: fuel trailers, the sort that are so often used to refill gas stations or airport fuel stocks, have been going missing lately. Some of them been found on the outskirts of the city after the fact, but mysteriously drained of their contents! Someone (or something) is targeting the local fuel supply and the price at the pump has been going up, leaving locals disgruntled and demanding action of some kind!
The culprits of this caper are none other than Drift and Spinister, who are in the midst of some sneaky thefts to make sure they have enough of the local fuel sources to last them through lean times in the future. While Drift is more amenable to following local laws than Spinister, he's also not the type to let himself starve if he can help, even if the local stuff is really gross. OOC Goals: I'd like to have Drift and Spin cause some trouble and ideally I'd like to recruit some other PCs to do the investigating, maybe some player conflict that brings Spin and Drift into contact with either of the guilds who might be interested in recruiting giant robots or stopping them from casually breaking Earth laws. Intended Personal Outcome/Consequences for Characters: Drift and Spinister end up with a less onerous source of fuel that helps get them off of local supplies, though the source may still be of dubious legality if a baddie decides to pay them off or what have you. Impact on the Setting or Mod NPCs: Maybe some of the fuel that's pilfered belongs to someone important (private source of jet fuel meant for a private plane, local businesses having to pay more to ship things in the local area, etc.). Basically I want people to get annoyed and give them a reason to want to either hire, pay-off, or go after the resident Cybertronians.
