The term closure describes headhunting for individual Casualties. Sometimes, its good people looking to cease the hellish puppetry profaning the corpse of a loved one; more often, its not.
Description:
Harold Carmichael, a big-wig of the local Enclave, wants the Takers to end the suffering of Belinda James, a pastor formerly employed by the Ivory Fields Ministry. Shes not been seen since the Crash, but James was nationally recognized in the evangelical community. Carmichael insists it wont be difficult to find where she went down. He does not trust Takers, so he wants them to stream the hunt and execution through Ubiq. While he insists he doesnt need all that sissy stuff, the closure job is a gift for one of his sons. James was the mans ex-wife, so hell pay 5 bounty extra if they can make it look peaceful, and he can send him the video for Christmas.
A helicopter carrying valuable goods crashed as it returned to the Recession. Takers are needed to travel to the crash site, recover the valuable goods, and then return the material to the Client.
Description:
Post-hope-noise-punk icons An Incident have just finished recording a concert for their upcoming Live from the Loss album at the Trabajo enclave in Colorado.

The Takers must recover the drives containing the masters and get them returned to the Client via drone back in the Recession.
The mega-corp Distributy was just days away from announcing the launch of its newest AI release. The remnants of the mega-corp in the Recession are paying top dollar to recover the code from the Loss.
Description:
Distributy had their fingers in all sorts of pies before The Crash. One of the more interesting of those pies was advanced robotic AI and market prediction AI. The Crash happened just months before the announced rollout of Distibutys next big thing a collective of weak AIs in a new and proprietary cognitive network that allowed the single-task AIs to interchange data, computations, and conclusions instantaneously with each other. Distributy Corp's remnants are paying Top-Bounty to Takers who can recover the AI coding from the Distributy R&D lab in the Loss.
Another Taker chased Mr. Jols and came back alive. Now, they're looking for a permanent retirement home far from their current enclave. Your crew has been hired to find them that new home.
Description:
Pike, a fellow Taker from a few hundred miles away, is looking for a small location to retire to with her family. The years of Taker work have made Pike a bit untrusting of people in the Loss, and she does not feel safe trying to retire in an enclave where everyone knows her and how much bounty she has. Pike has done her research and is looking for local Takers to scout out some possible sites. She is looking for places remote enough to be defensible but also not impossible to reach other enclaves for resupply. To that end, she wants the Takers to take her and her family on a virtual tour of multiple locations to assess their viability and if they meet her family's aesthetic sensibilities.
Bat guano is naturally antifungal and high in saltpeter, making it an excellent organic fertilizer. Heading into winter, your Enclave is looking to replenish its stockpiles of fertilizer for spring.
Description:
Pitchfork has been placed in charge of all the farming efforts in the Takers home enclave. Food production is currently unable to fully meet the enclaves needs, but quality fertilizers could potentially push the crop yields far enough that the enclave could produce all its own needs. And any further development of areas for farming would be that much more productive in the future. Pitchfork believes she has a good source of quality fertilizer ready and waiting in the Alabaster Caverns State Park. A generous cave system at the park is home to a significant colony of Mexican Free-Tailed Bats. These bats are known to roost in vast numbers and produce copious amounts of guano annually. Pitchfork can use as much of the fertilizer guano as the Takers can bring her.
