Journal Entry: Columbia Mar 3/02

If there is one good thing to be said about the patently evil SK3 is that they hold big swinging parties! Carnival came at the most opportune time for some cursed object retrieval from Rambaldi Manor.

I thought my cover was blown when Antonio Rambaldi himself invited me to dance. Taking my leave to "powder my nose" I went straight away to find the vault. The blueprints were accurate since the castle was rebuilt stone for stone as it stood in Burford.

I was stopped by two guards who did not buy my innocent act. They ruined my mask and then I ruined their day. That was when I spotted the security camera. I did extract top notch footage of myself from the same console that deactivated the vault security measures.

Getting the Inca Ring of Power was easy. Getting out with it was not. Needless to say, I have it now and must decide whether to destroy it. It is highly precious, but it's power once released is chaotic and would ultimately lead to suffering throughout the world.

Jounral Entry: Peru May 19/02

I received a cellular call today from Varner Studios as I was tramping through the mountains back from the lost Temple. The studio had completed a sculpture of me based on vid captures I sent from the Rambaldi security tapes.

The connection started breaking up when a bullet whizzed past my car and chipped my phone antennae. I told them I would get back to them and to e-mail me the particulars.

The e-mail I just received includes a few photos of the figure...brilliant! It looks just like me, but dressed a bit fancier than usual.

This is the second full length figure they've done of me, along with a bust. They say it's a limited edition of 3500. I must finish my mission quickly, return to Surrey, and order a few before they're all snatched up! This is one figure I want to display prominently in my flat alongside my latest find!
