Description

“It's a mystery to me - the game commences
For the usual fee - plus expenses
Confidential information - it's in the diary
This is my investigation - it's not a public inquiry

I go checking out the reports - digging up the dirt
You get to meet all sorts in this line of work...
Treachery and treason - there's always an excuse for it
And when I find the reason, I still can't get used to it

And what have you got at the end of the day?
What have you got to take away?
A bottle of whisky and a new set of lies
Blinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes...

Scarred for life – no compensation
Private investigations…”

Dire Straits, ‘Private Investigations’


Lovely artwork by the great , and sparse, haunting music from 'Love Over Gold'...


Here's Isabelle 'Dixie Belle' Wilder in her in-game attire, looking as mean and moody as a Haim sister as she looks to settle some frontier justice in Scoundrel's Luck...

Tools of the Trade

'H-7 Equaliser' pistol:  Considered by many to be one of the finest production model pistols in the galaxy, with virtually unparalleled quality and precision, with impressive firepower and accuracy.  Only produced in limited numbers, the gun is greatly sought-after in spite of its high price, and even CorSec officers have to wait months to obtain one. The stun setting is nice too.  If I only get one shot, I have to make it count...

Stun Baton: A police truncheon, the Z2 by Merr-Sonn packs an unexpected punch in the form of a stun blast. Carried by riot police and criminal enforcers alike, it is built from reinforced polymers with conductive alloy striking surfaces. It releases a burst of stun energy that quickly renders any malcontent insensible. As always, I prefer to use non-lethal means when I serve and protect.

Knockout grenade: Filled with tranquilizer gas, this can subdue several targets without permanent damage, sending them into a deep sleep.

Armoured clothing: My jacket has plastoid plating and my 'work clothes' have mesh energy-dispersing layers. Very light, mostly undetectable as armour, and also serves not only to absorb the brunt of attacks, but to deflect some attacks away from vital areas entirely.

MC-100 Magnacuffs.  These use tiny, powerful magnetic field generators to stay locked tight around the wrists, and are locked by thumbprint readers or keypad locks. Adjustable to fit most species, and too strong to break with brute force. My holster functions on the same principle.    

Hand Scanner: The RFX/K Medisensor by Biotech Industries.  Displays a useful array of biological data about a subject, and can check for atmospheric contaminants, poisons, vermin, or micro-fractures and stress-points in mechanics.

Bottle of Whyren's Reserve: The most famed Corellian whisky. Because whether I'm dancing or enforcing frontier law, a girl needs something to get her through the next few hours. Distilled from anywhere between three and twenty times, it is aged for several years in wooden casks. Characterised by a smooth, woody, slightly spicy flavour, it is hard to come by outside of the Corellian sector, and is priced accordingly on the black market.

Forsensics Investigation Kit: Perfect for crime scene investigations, this contains medical instruments, evidence collection containers, chemical swabs, magnifiers, scanners, multi-spectrum light emitters, marking tools, different kinds of solvents, adhesives and other speciality chemicals.

Carrying Pack: Made of various fabrics with straps, with internal bracing and back support. Because this stuff is heavy and I'm not getting any younger...

Ah, no, sorry my bad - thought you were talking about one of the Brimstone gals.

No, Dixie here is totally straight, ands she's not all that picky in her choice of lovers.  She's no slut, but she makes connections easily.

Ah yes, good thing her nonlethal grenade of choice isn't sonic... or she wouldn't be able to use it on Bith.

It's actually from the MMO, Knights of the Old Republic.  

It's the 'Showoff's Casual' outfit with the 'Bounty Hunter Hat'.

The player thought it was a nice costume for a sci-fi cowgal
