SR 219: Blind Magic
 |
Lucas¸ a gifted shaman and member of the Salish-Shidhe Council¸ is respected for his arcane talents among his tribe. When he's blinded during a shadowrun on an Evo Corporation outpost¸ he's fitted with a set of cybereyes during his recovery. But upon his return to the Council¸ the tribe banishes him¸ saying the cyberware he's accepted makes him unfit to be a shaman. Distraught¸ Lucas heads to Seattle and spends time in the Barrens attempting to scrape by.
Wanting revenge against Evo¸ he teams up with a group of shadowrunners¸ influencing them to take runs against the megacorporation. During one such run¸ they determine that Evo is retrieving an arcane artifact from a dig site located in Salish-Shidhe territory. Lucas convinces his team to take the initiative and either stop the dig or steal the artifact. But when a team member double-crosses Lucas and the others¸ he must race against time to discover the true masterminds behind this shadowrun…and stop the thief before they escape with both the artifact and Lucas's last chance for redemption…
