Bioweapons

Generation Disease
One of the most sadistic weapons in the PRA arsenal, Generation Disease is specifically engineered to effect only a single species. The disease is lethal within 24 hours, causing death from massive internal hemmorhaging. Symptoms include swelling, black vomit, weeping blood, sweating blood, bloody feces, bleeding from the mouth, nose, and ears, bloody secretions, cranial swelling, bloating, and death. Death is most often caused by exsanguination, organ failure/loss, and/or massive cranial damage. Symptoms begin approximately ten to fifteen minutes before death (23 hours after infection), although the subject is infectious by four hours after infection. The disease is only active in post-pubescent members of the species, and is carried in the bodily fluids, such as blood, vomit, mucus, and saliva. Pre-pubescent victims merely have the symptoms of a mild cold, including sneezing and coughing.

Tests have shown Generation Disease to be nearly 100% lethal, and easily spread to secondary victims via aerosol. It is extremely infectious, and is judged best used as a weapon of last resort.

Beta Anthrax
A modified, weaponized form of bacillus anthracis, Beta Anthrax is a lethal, aerosolized form of standard Anthax. Capable of lingering for years and still maintaining its lethality, Beta-Anthrax is an excellent choice for area denial. Pale Rider Arms bio-techs have also added an unparralled level of resistance to antibiotics to all strains of Beta Anthrax.

Beta-Anthrax is contracted by coming into contact with the bacterium's spores. This can cause three forms of the disease:

Cutaneous- Contact with skin. Onset time of 16 hours. Causes lesions, which rapidly spread and cover the body. 65% fatality untreated, rarely lethal if treated properly.

Inhalation- Contact with respiratory tract. Onset time of 2 days. Initially similar to a cold, causes lesions in respiratory tract, respiratory arrest, and death. 99% fatal untreated, 75% fatal treated.

Intestinal- Consumption of contaminated food. Onset time of 2 days. Nausea, vomiting, stomach ulcers, internal bleeding, death. 99% fatal untreated, 35% fatal treated.

Cost: $100,000,000 per sample



Eye-Killer

Living in the tear-ducts of its host, Eye-Killer causes severe itching in the corners of ones eyes, dryness, and severe necrosis of ocular tissue. Upon infection, the bacteria begins to breed quickly, devouring tissue at an incredible rate. Within two hours, the disease will have caused permanent blindness, and within four, it will completely destroy the eyes.

The disease is spread when the subject rubs his eyes with contaminated hands/gloves/etc. An aerosolized version is also available, and if combined with carcerands, can be injected, ingested or inhaled.


Cost: $10,000,000/sample non-aerosol
$25,000,000/sample aerosol



Pleurisitic Airborne Virus

Causes the inflammation of the pleurisitic membrane surrounding the lungs. The sack then fills with bodily fluids, compressing the lungs until the organs can no longer take in oxygen. The victim dies a slow, painful death by asphyxiation. Side effects are Chest Bloating, wheezing, coughing, and oozing pores. Airborne and highly contagious. Onset time is set by the genetic code of the virus, ranging from a few minutes to several days delay. Death will occur within minutes of onset.

Cost: 500,000,000/sample



Pulmonary Lipid Clot Virus

A two pronged virus. It causes the stomach to produce higher acid levels, thereby digesting foods faster. This causes the victim to ingest greater quantities of food. Absorbtion of lipids into the bloodstream is facilitated, and all fats and other lipids ingested are caused to cement themselves within the Aorta and Ventricles of the heart. Death occurs after next meal. Death usually occurs via heart attack, or cell-death.

This virus is not highly contagious, but can be transferred. It is best used for assasinations, as the virus breaks down quickly after the host has died. Leaves no traces.

Cost: 250,000,000/sample OR 25,000/sample if non-production agreement is signed.



Super-Flu

Influenza: one of the most common diseases on the planet, and one of the most deadly. Every year, the flu kills 36,000 in the United States alone. And yet the flu is often ignored by the population at large. This presents an excellent opening for biological attack, as diseases that can masquerade as the flu can, at least for a short period, evade detection, and thus prevention.

This is why the Superflu was developed. For the first day of active infection, Superflu acts as a normal flu, causing a fever, head-ache, diarrhea, vomiting and a host of other symptoms. After this first day, the symptoms begin to worsen. The headache and fever begin to cause dementia, ingesting food or water becomes impossible, fevers rise to over 110 degrees, and cranial pressure rises. This can lead to rather startling demises, including cranial detonation due to excessive pressure. Death rate is 100%

Cost: 1,000,000,000/sample



VITAS

Short for virally induced toxic allergy syndrome, VITAS causes severe anaphylactic shock in patients. The disease lies seemingly dormant for the first twelve hours of the infection, followed by a period of up to 48 hours where the patient is extremely infectious but shows no outward symptoms. After this, the patient will quickly go into severe and nearly universally fatal anaphylactic shock. This causes the throat to swell, closing the windpipe and suffocating the patient. Other symptoms include hives, hypotension, vomiting (also fatal when the throat is swollen shut), unconsciousness and itching. VITAS is airborne, and as such, can be difficult to contain. Precautions are advised when utilizing VITAS as a weapon.

Cost: 1,000,000,000/sample



KoloBac

An excellent choice for crowd control, KoloBac is a bacterial crowd suppression agent. Feeding off of other microorganisms, KoloBac digests them, and secretes an aerosolized form of Carfentanil (arguably the world’s most potent analgesic), as well as a specialized chemical that blocks certain receptors for Carfentanil, preventing lethal dosages. KoloBac covers an area with a cloud of these chemicals, which will last as long as the bacteria are still present. Clean-up is relatively easy, simply spray high powered bleach on the effected area, and the heavy ground-clinging bacteria will be killed. Within twenty minutes, the cloud will disperse. The bacteria are also sensitive to extreme heat and cold, and will survive approximately 10 minutes in such environments.

Protective measures can be taken to prevent exposure to Carfentanil. The suggested method is a sealed NBC suit, with gas mask or independent air supply. This is due to the fact that Carfentanil can and will penetrate the epidermis, reaching an effective dosage within seconds.

Cost: 400,000,000 USD per sample



Genetically Enhanced Rotovirus

One of the most common virii in the world, rotovirus infects nearly every human being in the world, and is the cause of over 5% of fatalities in the 0-5 age group. Knowing a good thing when they saw it, the dedicated scientists at Pale Rider Arms Creative Weapons have successfully altered the virus, allowing it to be more effective, longer lasting, and quite a bit more painful.

Rotovirus infects the lining of the digestive tract, infecting and killing cells while spreading toxins throughout the body. Cells slough off of the walls of the tract, and pass out of the body (along with much of the bodies water) as intensely painful diarrhea. Damage to the stomach, esophagus and intestines causes extreme pain, and can seriously damage these vital organs. The disease spreads via contact with infected waste, although initial introduction via aerosol is possible and suggested for maximum exposure.

Symptoms
Intense diarrhea
Vomiting
Intense abdominal pain
Dehydration, possibly leading to death
Possible organ failure

Onset Time: 24 Hours
Duration: Approximately 7 Days
Cost/Sample: 15,000,000 USD



Carrion

With an incubation period of approximately one week, Carrion is infectious from day two, allowing the disease to spread quickly and quietly, passing beneath the radar of many targets. The virus acts primarily in the brain and respiratory tract. Tissue in both areas breaks down rapidly after the incubation period is completed and virus levels reach a critical mass. Symptoms include sneezing, coughing, occasional stroke-like symptoms, increased aggressiveness, and paranoia, finally leading to death from either suffocation or brain failure.

Carrion is transmitted primarily by infected fluids, mostly mucus hacked up by victims, and spittle from coughs, sneezes and even breathing during early-stage infections, and can be considered airborne to a limited extent.

Two variants of Carrion are available, Strain A described above, and the more deadly Strain B, which can also be carried by many insects, rodents and avians. This greatly aids the spread of the disease, as these secondary carriers will infect additional human hosts. The disease cannot spread animal to animal however. Strain B is to be considered extremely infectious, and its use will be strictly monitored by PRA to ensure proper precautions. Inappropriate usage may result in PRA sanctions.

Strain A: 500,000,000 USD/sample
Strain B: 2,000,000,000 USD/sample

Chemical Weapons

AeroClot
Originally a inhaled coagulant for combat personnel, AeroClot was discovered to cause heart attacks and brain aneurisms when too much was taken. Now, in addition to its original use, AeroClot is a potent chemical weapon. Thickening the blood, it causes clots to form, which lodge in the narrow arteries of the brain, and cause the heart to overwork and destroy itself. The lungs also become a solid bloodclot, causing respiratory failure as well. Death occurs within 30 seconds.

The gas is slightly heavy, and will not rise more than ten meters above the ground, compromising its use slightly in urban areas.

Cost: 100,000/dose. One dose will cover an area approximately 100 meters in radius, ten meters into the air.



Carcerands

A break-through in nano-scale medicine, carcerands are nano-capsules that are "programmed" to open under preordained conditions, releasing their cargo. The capsules can hold nearly anything, from medicine molecules to virii, to other chemical weapons. These capsules are injected into (or inhaled or swallowed by) a living host, and can be used to deliver their package to specific locations, allowing precision delivery of medicines, or creating a remotely detonated walking viral bomb.

When ordering, please specify conditions for trigger (target organ, chemical stimuli, etc).

Costs:
100 USD/dose injected
500 USD/dose aerosolized
All cargoes are sold seperately.



Corromis

Gas masks got you down? NBC suits ruining your perfectly timed chemical attacks? Then try PRA's guaranteed anti-countermeasure gas, Corromis!

Composed of a variety of chemicals, each designed to counter a specific filtration system. Corromis will violently react with activated charcoal, creating dangerous fumes in the process. It will flood filters with small particles, requiring removal of the filter before the wearer suffocates. Corromis also corrodes rubber and a variety of similar materials, breaking seals in NBC suits and rendering them useless.

Cost: 1000 USD/ dose
Coverage: 1000 sq meters/ dose



BZ Gas
The code-name of 3-quinuclidinyl benzilate, BZ is a potent non-lethal hallucinogen and intoxicant. With an onset time of approximately 15 minutes, the colorless, odorless BZ gas is excellent for use prior to an attack, or to cause wide-spread panic and confusion.

BZ causes vivid hallucinations and illusions (misidentifying objects/persons), quite different from the fuzzy hallucinations produced by such narcotics as LSD in that the hallucinations from BZ are clear-cut, and seem entirely real. These symptoms alone can produce severe amounts of friendly fire. Other symptoms include lack of fine muscle control, short attention span, disorientation, slurred speech, poor judgement, and altered levels of consciousness.

Cost: 10,000/dose
Coverage: 1000 sq meters/dose



PhosphoRush

Designed to eliminate enemy troops and vehicles quickly with little collateral damage, PhosphoRush is an excellent choice for the discerning general, and is awe-inspiring when combined with other quality PRA products such as CorroMis.

The weapon works by entering through the skin, enters cells through the plasma membrane, and causing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to break down into adenosine diphosphate (ADP). This releases energy into the cell, which provides it with a boost to metabolic activities. In the short term (nearly instantly), the subject will exhibit high blood pressure, rapid heart palpatation, greatly increased energy levels, and hyperventilation. Within a minute, the energy released is too much for the cells to bear, causing widespread cell death across the body. Heart failure, respiratory failure, brain damage, widespread tissue damage, and organ failure across the body. The subject will be dead within two minutes. In addition to the above effects, the phosphorous released from the ATP will be excreted from the body, as cellular waste and in sweat, urine and feces. This means that any victim has the potential to become a human torch, especially post mortem when the bowels and bladder empty themselves.

Area of Effect: 200m square/dose
Cost per Dose: 50,000 USD




PhospoRend

A variant of the PhosphoRush weapon, PhosphoRend does not stop at just causing the ATP series of molecules to break down, it also attacks the bonds in the DNA structure, seperating the sugars and phosphates that make up the outer structure.

Exposure to PhosphoRend causes symptoms similar to those of acute hemorrhagic fever, including disintegration of internal organs, hemophilia, and high fever. The victim dies within five minutes of exposure, and phosphorous deposits spread across the remains can ignite very easily.

Symptoms in plants are quite different from those in animals. While the plant does die, the hardy internal structure of the plant prevents any visible symptoms, besides a slight waxy texture to some species, caused by build-up of phosphorous in and along the outer layer of cellulose. Needless to say, these plants are incredibly flammable, and can often explode violently. PhospoRend is suitable for use as a incendiary mine field, and has the benefit of lacking any mechanical parts (besides the possibility of a detonator).

Cost: 75,000 USD/dose
Coverage: 200m square/dose



Frost

Originally intended as a medical treatment (much like quite a few other PRA chemicals), the designer drug Frost is engineered to lower the subject's body temperature. This was originally used to combat high fevers, but the effects of an overdose were too useful to pass up.

Frost works by reacting with iron in the blood stream. When the iron in the blood comes into contact with Frost, an endothermic reaction occurs, chilling the body. Under normal dosages, this drop ranges from one to eight degrees farenheit, but an overdose can lower the body's internal temperature by a large margin, as low as 60 degrees, causing hypothermia and death.

Frost is normally applied via DMSO or injection, although an aerosol version is available for use by both civilian medical organizations (with the proper license) and the military. Depending on the circumstances, carcerands may be used to either delay the effects of the drug or to ensure that it reaches the proper sections of the body.

Medical Version: 25 USD/dose
Combat Dosage: 500 USD/dose
Aerosol (AOE 200 square meters): 2000 USD/dose




Silens Nox

The latest in Pale Rider Arm's long history of chemical weaponry, Silens Nox continues PRA's tradition of excellence. Silens Nox is composed of three individual agents, each which acts individually to contribute to a rather spectacular whole: The complete neutralization of an enemy combatant without taking his life.

The first of the three agents is absorbed through the cornea and lens of the eye, attacking the vitreous humour. The agent causes the vitreous to rapidly contract, pulling away from the retina. This will usually lead to a massive retinal tear, resulting in permanent blindness. In rare cases, retinal tears are less severe, and, if properly treated, will result only in partial blindness.

The second agent enters the body through the tympanic membrane, moving into the Labyrinth. There, it reacts with the fluids therein, causing chemical burns to the entire inner ear. This will inevitably lead to permanent and untreatable deafness, loss of coordination, and extreme pain.

Finally, the third agent is, directly at least, quite harmless. The agent bonds to the cells of the tear and salivary glands, where it roots itself. The true danger of the agent, however, lies with the host's immune system. Cells that the agent has bonded to are no longer recognized by the body as it's own, and are attacked by the autoimmune system. This leads to an inability to produce basal tears or saliva, and chronic dry eyes and mouth. In turn, these cause irritation of the eyes, damage to the cornea, watering of the eyes, difficulty in speaking or eating, halitosis, and increased cavities. Combined with the damage to the retina and ear, this renders sight and speech virtually impossible.

When taken together, these three agents reduce even the best trained warriors to mere husks of their former self, unable to resist your efforts further. Silens Nox is available in aerosol form only. Like all PRA chemical weapons, Silens Nox is sold in binary form, shipped in separate crates for your safety. Practice chemical safety and know your weapons! Silens Nox is a liquid at room temperature, and it's aerosol form is visible as an oily mist.

Area of Effect (1 dose): 800 cubic meters
Lifespan: 20 minutes
Cost per Dose: 5,000 USD

Bioweapon Breeding Vat

A vital part of any bioweapon harvesting project, breeding vats can produce massive amounts of weapon in relatively short periods of time. The vat is filled with sugar and tissue cultures, which the virii or bacteria being cultivated consume. Temperatures are maintained at ideal levels for the specific agents being produced.

Cost: $20,000/vat

the sephrion empire is in need of a virus that can kill the borgs organic componas fast

Damn, this stuff is good...

Sephrioth: While not a virus, may we suggest PhosphoRend? Very lethal, destructive against nearly all organic life, and possessing a nifty side effect that tends to cause massive explosions when used in large amounts.

WSP: Thanks. I've been working on this since 2004.

we need enought to wipe out over a 4 million drones

PhosphoRend's effectiveness varies greatly depending on enemy concentration of forces. Theoretically, a single dose could kill millions, but that would require every victim to be within a 200 meter area of effect. As such, we cannot suggest an actual number.

Col. Arashi, Gunkoku weapons department:
The State of Gunkoku wishes for the development of a weapon that can be delivered by air-strike and will disipate fast allowing for troop movement soon after. anything you can do for us?

Would you be able to manufacture a virus that causes psychosis followed by self-cannibalization? Preferably deliverable by aerosol, followed by contact with blood.

All of our chemical weapons typically are rendered inert approximately one hour after contact with air. If you wish for an agent to be rendered inert more quickly, we can easily engineer a variant with a lifespan to be specified by your military. Otherwise, we recommend usage of NBC warfare suits.

Would you be able to manufacture a virus that causes psychosis followed by self-cannibalization? Preferably deliverable by aerosol, followed by contact with blood.
Do you require such an agent to be viral, or will a chemical weapon be sufficient, especially considering the lower amount of collateral damage inherent in such a weapon? As for the exact effect, self-cannibalisation is difficult, but PRACW engineers are confident that we can find a solution.

Sorry about the delay, I'm hoping for something like the cobra event book. The disease is based off of a catapillar disease. Basically, it causes "brain pox," where the brain acts as a biological reactor. A nasty biproduct is, shortly before death, the person starts to self-cannabilize before massive hemmoraging kills them. I'd like it if this were either a virus or a bacterium (virus would be preferable) with an incubation period of two to three days before immideate and catastrophic death. I'd like it to be both aerosol and blood-borne if possible. Lemme know on a price, I want to decimate civilian populations with this stuff.

We would like to place an order for one of every biological weapon, for testing purposes.
However, we also request advice on the best way to avoid contamination as the viruses used are so potent, ordinary gear may not stop them.
Also, we inquire about the availability of vaccines and or cures, in case of leaks during testing.

Elarn Tutal, Executive Supervisor of Biological Weapons.

Mr. Stolypin,

I personally guarantee that no shipment sent by Pale Rider Arms will be compromised. All CWD deliveries are already handled with the utmost care, given the potential damage from accidental release of any pathogens. Standard PRA biohazard shipping crates are proof against most tampering up to and including the shock wave of a nearby nuclear detonation. Thus, while the gesture is appreciated, we must decline the additional sum offered.

All told, your order comes to a total of one hundred and fifty five billion, eight hundred million (155,800,000,000) USD. Your products will be shipped immediately upon receipt of purchase.

Yours,

While i do not normally directly handle foreign acquisitions and contracts i feel obligated in this case to take something of a special interest. I feel that as the first contract my nation has ever placed with you , the large nature of it and the sensitive context it was better that the hand of the President fall upon this deal directly.


The following procurements have been authorised as subsections of Alliance military, police and medical spending. The majority of this order is intended to form the basis of the chemical weapons arsenal of all Trinity Alliance Forces. In particular it is our intention that PhospoRush become our primary chemical area denial system while BZ gas will be phased in for use by police and military forces with aero clot becoming the secondary battlefield offensive chemical weapon along with our nerve gas based weapons for use in VX rockets and tactical delivery systems.

The provision of medical Frost treatment units however is entirely for the intended medical purposes and as such payment will originate from accounts attributed to the medical services.

We are extremely interested in your Carcerands system and intend to make extensive use of them in precision delivery of specific payloads particularly within our medical fields with the aerosol models providing the means by which will allow for precise delivery of vaccinations and genetic packets to a population quickly from the air.

While we understand the issues of sovereignty at play here considering the size of this provision we will make available regular UFAT and Latoman forces to supplement security, containment, transfer and escort units. They are yours to utilise as you see fit however we would encourage you to make use of them to supplement your own personnel.


The majority of purchases from your biological portfolio will be processed with the stated purpose of medical research. They are as follows.

Beta Anthrax 1
Eye-Killer 1 aerosoled 1 not

Pleurisitic Airborne Virus 1

Pulmonary Lipid Clot Virus 1

Super-Flu 1

KoloBac 1

Genetically Enhanced Rotovirus 1

Carrion A 1
Carrion B 1

Transport of these samples will be undertaken by the submarine LNS Sanctity to avoid the potential atmospheric release that could occur should the shipment be attacked and the transporters destroyed. Please provide all information necessary as to location for an appropriate transfer.

In the interests of producing useful quantities of certain biological assets i would like to request a supply of 82,000 biological vats for installation in multiple facilities within the alliance.

-encoding stage 2-

On a far more sensitive note i would request collaboration on one specific issue. Your scientists have displayed remarkable expertise by designing what you have called a generation disease. We would request your assistance in providing two specific strains of this .

We ask this because of both your knowledge base and because political circumstances make such research within the alliance risky.

Encrypted in this message is information on the unique genetic changes and markers that have been written into or removed from the genome of all born citizens of the Alliance.

Recognising the means for a weapon of last resort, but at the same time noting that none of the existing means such as nuclear weapons are suitable for use against foes on ones own soil, it is my personal request that you tailor a version of this weapon that attacks humans but excludes those carrying those genetic markers found in the population of those i am bound to protect.

The second strain is more a request for a modification of a viral agent we will provide. We will provide a sample of the Chastis virus, a virus designed to be highly contagious and extremely destructive over the long term. The Chastis virus attacks the reproductive systems and sterilises individuals. This extreme weapon attacks not the present but the future.

We would request that you utilise your knowledge to create a species targeted version of our virus within the same genetic marker targeting requirements as our requested sample of your generation virus.

Please advise as to the pricing of these requests and specific circumstances especially considering the unusual engineering request on a virus that is the intellectual property of the Alliance.

As black purchases i would request that payment for this specific section of the order be made possible using means to prevent a cash trace.

It is my Personal request that you allow the presence of UFAT elite presidential guards to assist in the security and transport of these particular agents, they are completely loyal, extremely intelligent and utterly capable. I would personally answer for the actions of any.

I await your proposed pricing and other details with concern to all our requests and proposals. It makes my heart sigh to have to purchase or make deals in such an area or in such a manner but it is a fact that given the nature of the world in which we live that it is ultimately the lesser evil.
I can not bring myself to shrink from aquiring the legitimate technologies i need to protect my nation, allies and my people.

President Teviel,

While we will gladly fill this order, the sheer magnitude of it exceeds our current stock by a large amount. The order will be able to be shipped in full in approximately two months, for a grand total of 3.5 trillion USD, with options to pay over a period of four years. Transport and security of your order will be provided by Chimera Security (included in cost). Additional security for this delivery may be added at your discretion (and expense).

In regards to your special requests, we will be able to accommodate this easily. However, bear in mind that basing immunity on these genetic markers is not an exact science, and thus we cannot guarantee 100% immunity amongst your population without rendering the weapon far less useful against it's intended targets. As for payment, we will gladly complete this project gratis, provided that we are allowed access to the Chastis virus for purposes of modification and sale. We will not disclose the origin of this agent.

Provided that these conditions are amenable, we will fill your order as soon as humanly possible.

Yours,
Daniel Quetzal
CEO of Pale Rider Arms

-Personal message from the President Daniel Teivels office.-

Mr Quetzal.

Payment for the order shall commence immediately and should be completed within the fiscal year as a result of surplus funds being created due to the unexpected sale of hardware to a nation within our region.

While i have full faith in the men of Chimera Security i am transfering a battalion of Presidential Guardsmen of the 3rd Presidential Guard Division to detatched duty to provide additional supervission and security, all logistical concerns will be handled by the logistics service. These are some of the best men and women in the entire alliance, they will perform admirably and in true diplomatic fashion.

We thank you for you ability to acomplish those special requests i've made. I understand that such modifications are not an exact science however, as a weapon of last resort one imagines that in any sittuation where it may be employed a number of casualities would be a small price to pay.

As to you rights to vendor the Chastis virus i have reservations, while i understand you already have what could be considered a far more devastating weapon for sale in your generation disease and that the rampant existance of thermonuclear weapons makes such a slow acting weapon seem almost harmless, i am still reluctant to place somthing so potentially devastating on the market.

However i belive that if a partnership is to be built up between us then trust is a neccassary step.

I propose the following with regards to Chastis and the modifications.

1)I shall grant you rights to modify and retail chastis at a suitibly high price that reflects its unique and powerful nature.

2)I would request a suitable royalty from any sale of the virus be considered set asside. I shall endevour to insure that any money credited to us in this way shall be used to purchase additional products from your company. With this in mind i leave it to you to determine an appropriate sum.

3)We retain the right to terminate the powers with regards to the virus you have been granted if we feel it is being supplied to powers whom pose a threat to the U.F.A.T or it's allied powers. We recognise that doing so would be a drastic meassure and result in the forfeiture of our rights to all agents modified by your scientists for our use.

4) The source of the virus shall at all times be kept a secret as will all aspects of our associationss unless i authorise a release of such information.

Facilities are already being made ready to recieve deliveries and all Trinity alliance forces have been placed on appropriate readiness for the duration.

Is my personal hope that this dealing is the begining of a long a productive partnership.

OOC: How much is in a dose? Is it a set wieght or enough of the Chemical/Virus to kill a signle person?

OOC: How much is in a dose? Is it a set wieght or enough of the Chemical/Virus to kill a signle person?

OOC: Depends on the product. With a chemical weapon, it's the amount required to blanket the given area with enough to elicit the described effect. Of course, given areas are based on an open field on a windless day with perfect humidity, so actual results may vary. For a biological weapon, it's the amount required to start a breeding population for mass production, with the aforementioned no-resale clause.

IC:

To whom it may concern,

At this time, Pale Rider Arms is unable to meet your requests. We will review them again in one year, and if circumstances have changed, will notify you of our decision.

Yours,
Daniel Quetzal
CEO of Pale Rider Arms

OOC: I don't like my stuff to be redistributed. Keeps me from performing quality control on who buys it, and since I'm the foremost expert on what this stuff will and will not do (being the guy who invented it out of thin air and all), it also prevents me from being able to keep an eye on it's use and making sure that it isn't godmoded.

To: Pale Rider Arms
From: WPD

You run an interesting shop here; for clarity, the KoloBac is entirely non-lethal? Because such a thing may suit our purposes quite nicely. It is quite pricey, $400 mil, but, provided it is what we currently think it is, it shall be quite worth the cost.

To whom it may concern at WPD,

While KoloBac is not entirely nonlethal (extreme concentrations can override even the encoded safety precautions, and a very small percentage of subjects may experience allergic reactions to carfentanil), it falls quite within acceptable safety parameters to qualify as a less-than-lethal weapon, falling short of even bean bag weaponry and CS in lethality.

As for it's seemingly exorbitant price, we remind you that this cost includes rights to breed the sample for your own use. This grants you a theoretically infinite supply of the agent, given adequate facilities and feedstock.

I hope that this has answered your questions regarding our products.

(Loving the stuff, especially the Silens Nox.)

The Alfegosian military wishes to enquire whether you sell, apart from BZ gas and Silens Nox, any non-lethal chemical agents that don't cripple for life? We use tear gas in great quantities in our military doctrine, and wonder if you have anything that could "spice it up"?

While we're at it, we wish to purchase $10 million worth of the Corromis agent. We wonder: does it affect the looped NBC systems found aboard vehicles?

Do we do business?

OOC: Looking into buying the BZ Gas, but i have to ask: Could it be fired as a shell long range from a 16" gun?

From: Ministry of Defense
Subj: AeroClot



We would like to inquire about the purchase of a very large amount of your AeroClot Chemical in order to create a fallback option should our island ever be invaded. 15,000 doses should be sufficient, the total then coming to $1.5 billion. We thank you for your excellence in both production and efficiency, and will come back Pale Rider Arms for future biological production.

Sincerely,

Jens Tirpitz
Minister of Defense for the Republic of Leistung

Do we do business?
Due to the current political climate, Pale Rider Arms is unable to offer our products to Corporate Alliance members. We are sorry, but we are unable to complete any orders you may make.

OOC: Looking into buying the BZ Gas, but i have to ask: Could it be fired as a shell long range from a 16" gun?
OOC: Yep, BZ is pretty sturdy. IIRC, it can be dispersed by explosives without impacting its effectiveness.

(OOC: Consider Early/Low PMT here, even though it's questionable if big arcologies would fit there)

Encryption Level: High (2048 bits RSA)

From: Middleman Jones (jonesie@anonymous.com)
To: Pale Rider Arms NBC division
Subject: One of the customers I intermediate has a special request

Greetings, I really hope that this message has not fallen in an automated junk mail deleting system, for due to the very delicate nature of these business, there are those who prefer to seek middlemen specialized into ensuring their identities, and reputations, as mind you gentlemen, this sort of weapon tends to serve even as a pretext for an invasion, as you might be aware of.

With no ado this is the catch about what one of my customers wish to acquire. First, I will rather explain the reason behind it, for otherwise I am afraid it would not be possible to be sure if you can develop this, because biology and immunology are not among my expertises. It is a challenging prospect, I antecipate, which was originated from a certain fear, that so far has been unconfirmed.

Through all mankind history that this customer is aware of, there is no single hint, no History footnote that contradicts the widely accepted truth that we, human beings, who can barely cope with our own differences, are the only sentient life form in Earth. Until an event that this customer considers schizophrenic happened. A fad, pardon the vulgar word, about persecuting some supposed anthropomorphic abominations which are nothing but the delusions of raving lunatics over socially inept individuals who found in the act of dressing costumes of animals and in questionable sexual activities a refuge for their broken self-esteems. I agree with my customer on this.

However, where there is smoke, there is fire, and even though it has 99.99% certainty there is no way that fad was more than lunacy, it shudders to think what humans, who have gone far enough to commit mass murder and genocide against their own kin, would suffer on their cultural base values should this, or any other possibility that we are not alone, become true. I believe you are understanding my implication. There must be a reason why the Neanderthal, despite having a time where they cohabited Earth with Homo Sapiens, became extinct, and my customer says that the only possible outcome of discovering non-human sentience in Earth is war.

Thus, this customer, in its ultimate worry to ensure the safety of human lives, is ready to use all means necessary to guarantee that there will never be a contest for the top of the food chain with another sentient race. As it became aware of yours Generation Disease, it pondered on a simple question that I now present: is it possible to make a Generation-immune Disease? Or in clearer words: a disease that would be deadly against any sentient being except for the Homo Sapiens? And if yes, could it be sufficiently contagious to wipe out any non-human sentient population of Earth without direct intervention? And would it be possible for it to provoke a mostly painless death? My customer sees no reason to inflict unnecessary suffering on what shall be inevitably extinct should it emerge.

If it is possible, it would be extremely interested into funding such venue of research. Also, I am sad that I have to write this, but it was a direct order of it. My customer is no fool, and should you in any way attempt to trick them to handle you financial resources to an herculean and impossible project only to line it on your pockets, it would not be fooled and would immediately request for the support of other types of middlemen, who would be ready to diplomatically solve the issue in a private meeting with your board. I apologize, but my customer is a bit wary about your business ethics.

If it is not possible, it would still be interested in your services, and should ever any non-human sentience emerge, request the design of a Generation Disease for them to ensure that mankind will never have to fight for their own supremacy over Earth and sacrifice their children in a war against abominable creatures, be them from outer space, obscure corners of our world or the result of a deranged loser with low self-esteem graduated in genetic engineering tinkering different genomes to create a perversion of the human race. Now that it was mentioned, my customer also hopes it is possible to target separate races instead of the entire branch of a species, fearing what the dawn of Genetic Modification and the loosening of laws on human experimentation might bred.

Also, as a token of goodwill, through certain shell accounts I see no necessity to numerate, it already deposited to your corporate account a sum of two millions dollar-equivalent value, under the guise of several debentures (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debenture) of anonymous investors, and hopes that you can timely and discreetly deliver the hundred of bioweapon breeding vats to depot number 539 of the harbor of Hamburg, from where I'll take the responsibility for the transport to ensure the utmost anonymity of my customer. No need to worry, for my personell is already quite experienced in the handling of such hazardous cargo.

If you have taken your time to read this proposal and agrees with it, thank you. I hope we can again make further businesses.

FROM: General Muhammad al-Karim, Minister of Defence of the Commonwealth of Lebanese Australia
TO: Mr. Daniel Quetzal, CEO of Pale Rider Arms

The Lebanese Australian Defence Forces are interested in procuring ten thousand biological weapons breeding vats (10,000 x 20,000 = $200,000,000), a sample of Pleurisitic Airborne Virus ($500,000,000), Pulmonary Lipid Clot Virus ($250,000,000), and Super-Flu ($1,000,000,000).

We also desire one million doses of Corromis (1,000,000 x 1,000 = $1,000,000,000) and fifty thousand doses of Silens Nox (50,000 x 5,000 = $250,000,000); the total cost should arrive at $3,200,000,000 USD.
