Citadel: Schells the Gambler

Citadel: Schells the Gambler is an assignment gained by an encounter as you are entering the Citadel's Flux, a bar and casino in the Wards District.

At some point during your time on the Citadel, as you are entering Flux, a cutscene plays showing a salarian being thrown out of Flux. A conversation will ensue, as he explains that he is trying to perform research to perfect his "system" for predicting the outcomes of the Quazar machines. In order to do this, he has been using a device which emits a signal that tampers with the machines, increasing his odds of winning, as he needs more data on winning instead of losing; this is why he was thrown out. He will attempt to enlist your help with collecting the data; if you refuse, he'll stay at the entrance to Flux until you agree to help him out.
