Crime Lord Launches Prison Escape Using Prosthetic Limb

INTRIS - Hierarchy officials of both Oma Ker and Digeris are offering a 7,500 credit reward for information leading to the capture of turian crime lord Lorimix Tusam, whom has managed a daring prison escape using unorthodox techniques.

Hierarchy officials were shocked to learn that the man had escaped after his quiet capture ten days ago near his Oma Ker apartment, but security footage from the escape shows that the man literally had a surprise up his sleeve.

“We were guiding him from one transport to the other when his entire right side seemed to just fall off,” stated Intris Correctional Facility official Omen Hap, speaking from his hospital bed at Intris. “Then I’ve got something jumping at my face there was shooting, and, well, next thing I knew I woke up here.”

Tusam has now been identified as an amputee, presumably from the the Reaper War, having hidden the cybernetic device from authorities through elaborate E/M shielding and clothing choices. The limb, which was incapacitated on-site, was outfitted with elaborate technology, adapting omni-blade offensive technology to “run” and attack enemies using miniature bladed limbs of its own.

During the ensuing firefight, Tusam escaped his escort, retrieved a firearm from a wounded officer, and escaped on the transport he was carried in on. His whereabouts are currently unknown.

Hierarchy officials warn that Tusam is considered to be armed and very dangerous. Anyone who sees him is urged to contact law enforcement at the following address.

CUT ARM OFF!!

Excuse me. I need to contact my business partner.

DWICK PUT DOWN THAT BONESAW AND GET INTO MY OFFICE, I'VE GOT AN IDEA

awwww

... what the actual fuck...?

Well, you have to give points for creativity if nothing else.

So apparently crime lords are taking cues from horror holovids now. Am I the only one thinking that geth-tech might be involved? I mean if the thing could run and all that couldn't it just be a mini-geth?
Any chance of tracking the stolen firearm?

And in regards to omni-blades. Personally during field work I find them useful from time to time. Quick, convenient, functionally omnipresent, and excellent for slicing through vegetation and the like. Sometimes though you just need a solid object, a sharpened hunk of metal to pry things open or if the power dies completely in the bush. So personally I prefer to use an ancient human design called a machete for daily work.

Excuse me, but this whole story sounds like an exaggerated piece of fiction. Is there any actual proof this happend as described?
That makes turian law enforcement look like a bad parody of a Dirk Black movie.

Maybe the guy simply got away somehow and somone wanted to cover it up by inventing or inflating the story?
Taleeze may be right here, I'd look for inside sources that helped the man.

You're saying the Turian Hierarchy made up a series of events that sound too crazy to be true.

The turians.

Just think about that for a second while I titter behind your back.

I'm not saying, I am wondering. It sounds like viral marketing for a cheesy action movie.

Not saying it is, since sometimes real life is just better and I simply don't know. Even the turians can have a bad day once in a while.
I called the turian embassy and they kinda hung up when I asked.

I can only wonder why.

This is all implying the Turians are competent at doing anything other than killing the enemy and detaining civis. Should've just used the old excuse of "rival faction fight" and just offed the asshole. That's how we used to do it when I was working Terminal at least.



"Oooohhh, Mr. Turian, would you please inform me of how your people fucked up? Preeettty please?

That sort of behavior is tolerated in the alliance?

...Wow. I wish my leg could do that.

God I hope not.

Then what exactly did you mean when you said

Because I know that there are plenty of things that have never gone reported by guys who were working ops in T-Space, and most of the civie side of things probably wouldn't have appreciated to find out. Fact of life when you're advising scummers.
