Studying old records has led me to believe there are some untouched pockets of old tech in the Old City that have been allowed to go unexplored because of large numbers of hostile pokemon hanging around them. I wouldn't be surprised if there was something in the old caches that was CAUSING them to be more hostile, but there's no way to find out without looking for ourselves.

Unfortunately, I'm not a delver, and I can't levitate with my mind or shoot fireballs from my eyes like some enlightened can. I want to get down there, though, so I'm proposing mounting an expedition. What one man cannot do on his own, many others working together will have no difficulty with.

[He brings out a map of the Old City and points to three red circles in a relatively small area of it.]

The caches are here, here, and here. I'd want some other engineers and probably a few delvers, plus anyone who can fight or carry heavy things around. Who's interested in advancing the cause of SCIENCE!?

Not a Delver, but I've been down there a few times before. Wouldn't mind heading down again, especially if there's likely to be something especially interesting to find.

[schmott_guy]

Delvers go down there all the time anyway. What would you bring to the table, then?

Another set of eyes that can tell if the tech we found is more likely to be a data storage device or a novelty toaster. Got some useful Pokémon and I can get into anything metal easily. And there's a good chance that if something goes horribly wrong I can survive to tell people of your brave final stand.

[Said with a very straight face.]

You could have just said "I'm an engineer."

[outtahere]

Not every engineer has field experience or useful Pokémon.

[schmott_guy]

The whole point of this endeavor is to get people who don't have field experience a chance to get a first hand look at the more dangerous parts of the Old City.

[outtahere]

Doesn't mean that those of us who do don't want to join in too.

Indeed. Your assistance would be appreciated.
