Synopsis[]

The runners are hired to go out to the Mojave desert to recover the cargo and crew of a crashed T-bird. They run into gangers in the desert called "The Bloodsworn", whose leader is some sort of Mystic that they call "The Prophet". They first take out the 2nd in command, Ajax, and his posse. To get the crew, they then head to a strange rock formation where the Bloodsworn are holed up. At the rock formation (shaped like a hand flipping you off), Not A Troll impersonates Ajax. Unfortunately, his mimic drug malfunctions, which leads him and an invisible Sampson Stonewall to confront The Prophet, who is apparently a shaman that communes with Rockworms.

Outside, the rigger and the mage confront the largest rock/sandworm they have ever seen. They manage to knock it out. The team brings the giant sandworm back to LA alive (as fodder for a future run).
