Uh, yes. I do. At least 2 government psions, and several entities of various nature. Some tectonic, a poltergiest or two, and a few other things. Creations of people dabbling in constructs. ('programmed' energy of a sort)
It was also useful for trapping minds, and spirits if need be.

Well, here's a bit of an update on what's going on with my... Our stuff missing. There was no massive explosion. No assasin. Amarillo PD found the van. It had been stolen from SouthWestern Public Service, and stripped of all of its electronic gear. SWPS is the local electrical and power company. There were also radios and other gear in there that are now missing.
I think we may have a tinkerer of sorts on our hands over here. But why would he be stealing equipment? ... Oh, another side note, they found claw marks on the van. THey didn't go through the metal, and they were side to side, but no more than a yard off the ground. If it were a dog, the claw marks would have been up and down. They didn't find any traces of metal or wood, and it's on both sides, and no dents. CSI people here don't seem to think the driver ran into any barbed wire or anything.
They also found the air out of one tire, and the brake-lines had been severed. The CSI people said that something had been jammed through the lines, then ripped apart.
Any thoughts?

I think what she was getting at was that it -hadn't- been run over anything. I think the mention of claw marks is particularly interesting. So Sakura, how does amarillo's CSI figure these 'claw marks' are in fact claw marks?

It sounds like the creature I just dealt with a few weeks ago, and believe I was dealing with in Pittsburgh. They are extremely proficient at causing mayhem on mechanical things.
Perhaps your tinker was dealing with more than he could handle?

Well, the report and the photo I had them show me showed evenly spaced lines scratched into the paint in groups of three and four. There weren't a large number of them. CSI seems to think that the service van was just naturally like that.
I'm thinking something else. Gremlins perhaps. Think about it... a van that's had its brake lines severed -after- it was stopped. Sounds to me like the kind of mayhem that would be right up their alley. They'd have probably set it on fire, if they had a way to.

consider this, the guys that stole from you and your significant other, might not have been stealing gear to go on the offensive, but may have needed them for defense, but might not have had the time to buy the stuff, or be nice and ask.

Maybe.
I mean, we haven't heard from Sakura about any other strikes, or usage 'wierd' weapons. As for me, I keep getting a sense of time running out, and some interesting experimental metaphysical weaponry. ... Sakura, there weren't any fire opals or rubies in the mix were there?

I doubt the gremlins hauled it away. I think our mystery thieves did. The wires and equipment and stuff would come in handy.
I got an idea they might use the radios for too, but we really don't have any psi-mechanics here on the boards that I could confer with... except maybe Sasha? I think Cola mentioned something about him being one or something similar? I know that Sakura can build odd devices, but usually just oriented toward helping her hunt.

Incidentally, there was an accident on I-40 this morning over by WestGate Mall. I went over there to see what happened and a couple of my LEO buddies told me that a woman in a Dodge Caravan swerved to miss part of a light-pole falling on the mini-van. She swerved and side-swiped another car, sending it careening into two others. Basically it was an 11-car pile-up thanks to a domino effect which had the east-bound lane shut down for hours this morning.
The police said the part of the lightpole that fell looked like it had been intentionally half-way disassembled, and it was in the neighborhood of the van, so we probably are looking at gremlins. I'm 90% sure its gremlins.
Another reason why I'm sure, is according to eye-witnesses they saw three small kids run off further east. They'd been near the light pole, but thanks to it being dark out still, the police couldn't even get consistant reports on the descriptions. They laughed at one guy that said they had green scaly skin. ... I just hope they don't make it to Wolflin Village, or change their minds and head to Westgate. The mall would be bad for them to be in.
