Tale of a Brigand

[Reverend Del]

Le Tartuffe sat at his desk reading his datapad, the Union Corse wanted some 3000 units of light arms and were willing to pay him good money to get them. That there was n way Le Tartuffe would get them was unknown to the Union Corses at this time, all he wanted was the up front 50% off the money they would pay. Money , he had said, which would be needed to set-up the deal with Sirian gunrunners. Of course no such gunrunners existed in Le Tartuffe's contact book, but that was neither here nor there, so long as the Corse never caught up to him before he could undergo cellular re profiling to change his physical appearance.

Le Tartuffe appeared to be in his late 40's slightly graying at the temples, average height and stockily built he seemed to be an unassuming gentleman. This body was easily 2 stone over his normal weight as well as a good 10 years older in appearance than his normal looks. It was useful to be unrecognisable.

The room was small, a mere box room n a cheap hotel, just a desk, bed and washstand furnished it. Le Tartuffe smiled.

He considered that chance of finding him to be slim, but he would take no risks. His Neuralnet account chimed as the Corse made the payment, and Tartuffe's grin broadened. It was done, and now time to leave. He gathered up his few possessions and exited the room.
