Mission Statement:
Special Investigations and Operations Division is a wildcard unit, composed of the best detectives and MaxTac officers on the Southowilson Police Department. These detectives are chosen for experience, intelligence, and initiative. SIOD, unlike other divisions, is centrally located and administered from the SWPD Central HQ in Eddings Plaza. They are posted all over the city as necessary but answer only to the division captain at HQ. SIOD handles all cases which are too high-profile or too low-profile for regular investigation. Gangs, organized crime, drug rings, serial killings, corporate crimes, and so forth all fall under the auspices of the SIOD. If it is too dangerous, too sensitive, too tangled, and too bizarre for other division, SIOD gets it. This happens a lot more than most civilians know.

For future Southowilson campaigns, we will be using the Savage Worlds Adventure Edition (SWADE) ruleset. The various house rules and kits are already well fleshed out at Bobby Dean's Chicago campaign site, which is set in the same fictional universe.

Weapons and Equipment - Get it from the SWADE rules or the Sci Fi Companion (no links). The standard sidearm is the "Fireguard Equalizer", a Medium Pistol with ROF-3 and room for an underslung Stunner or a single shot Gyroc Launcher for payload rounds (as Grenade, Small Burst template).
