Your Mission
The Computer has generated the following mission for your team. It has been carefully designed to ensure the maximum safety and satisfaction for your team.
Paranoia is the Irrational Fear Someone is Out To Get You
(Fear) Dominant type of fear to install in the PCs: The Commie mutant traitors are losing, and that's bad.(Irrational) General kind of weirdness or irregularity that prompts The Computer to assign a mission to the Troubleshooters: One or more laws of nature has been altered or revoked. It's air or water flow.
(Someone) Person, people, organization or agency responsible for the situation: The 21st-degree leader of the secret society Internal Security plant (hiding as PURGE), who plans to expand his personal power and the might of his secret-society. (The identity of the Someone need not be obvious at the mission's outset, and in fact things may play out more appropriately if the Someone is not discovered until late in the proceedings.)
(Out To Get You) General apparent threat posed by the situation, or the consequences if the situation is left unresolved: A biological agent will transform or devastate the PCs or a large population. The Computer sends in the Troubleshooters as guinea pigs. The threat is real.
Mission Alert: Text message on PDC. Message is intact and correct.
Briefing: Briefing is in empty recreational resort (if below Clearance GREEN, roll again). 2 briefing officers undercover; wary, paranoid; speak in evasive code-phrases.
This Mission: Traitors with Charm (c/s/z) are active in ORANGE (Tension 8) crowded bot manufacture center. Use this Skin Core Sampler to obtain their genetic material for study.
Outfitting: PLC: A Multi-Purpose Chute with graffiti "CompUSUKS!" above it-a password (Comp-U-SUK-5) into an unlimited account on this compromised machine.
Debriefing: Room contains nothing but miniature stools, where the PCs perch with difficulty and discomfort.
