Daycycle 1 [11/1 - 11/3]

 

Daycycle 1

[November 1-3]

[This game can be as plot heavy or laid back as you would like it to be. Each IC day will cover three RL days in order to give everyone time to tag and play out scenarios to their heart's content. Each IC day will start with a briefing, assignments for a group of 2 or more characters and additional information about the Complex that you may or may not use in play. Additional assignments may be made throughout the day, but never more than one per character per day.

You are welcome to play out missions from any point (beginning, middle, end) but are not required to. You will, however, need to provide information on the debriefing post below once you've determined with the other players involved how the mission played out. You are encouraged to approach other characters for assistance with missions whenever possible, as almost every sector has a playable character. You'll soon find out that the more avenues you have through the bureaucratic nightmare that Alpha Complex is, the better.

You may post your character in a comment below for the Daycycle for others to tag, or post threads directly to[community profile] alphalogs . Top level threads and comments here do count towards activity. ]


There's another glorious day dawning on Alpha Complex, though it would be difficult to tell if not for the ringing alarms on your Personal Digital Companion (PDC) that signify it is morning. Citizens of the Complex haven't seen the sun in centuries. Technically, this is your second day within the Complex as twenty-four hours ago you sprang fully formed into existence from the genius scientists at the cloning center. Or at least that was what you were told. Your whole - or possibly fragmented - memories, might say otherwise.

Your sole possessions in this brave new world include one standard-issue red jumpsuit with boots (each citizen dresses in the color of their security clearance), a month’s worth of REDdiMeals (cement consistent blocks of nutrition), and all the approved happiness drugs you want. Equipment assigned to you as part of the Troubleshooters squad include one laser pistol body, minus the barrel (the barrel will be provided when you are sent on a mission), one suit of red reflec armor overalls in (more or less) your size, a series 1300 Personal Digital Companion (PDC) that you can use to make phone calls, send texts or document any still or video pictures of any treasonous behavior you might happen to point it at and a Mercantile Enterprise (ME) card that contains your wages and identity information.


 

Morning

At 0700 you are to report to the RED clearance cafeteria for a not-so-delicious meal of soylent red. Soylent comes in all colors of clearance and is a nutritious, though terrible tasting, wafer made of “high-energy plankton”. (Though, of course, the only body of water known to Alpha Complex is the plain water reservoir and the river used to cool the power plants in the Power Sector…)


At 0800 you will meet with the rest of the Complex’s Troubleshooters for briefing and assignments. As a special you might find yourself being singled out for resentful dirty looks and trash talking from the other Troubleshooters, who have all reached this position after spending years as the Complex’s lowest caste, the INFRAREDs. Discontent is normally high, but today it is positively murderous at the introduction of clones who managed to skip years of internal servitude and manual labor to get to RED clearance..


A briefing officer in GREEN will make assignments, share gathered intel and provide laser pistol barrels as needed.


Assignments:

  • Bucky Barnes and Parker

    • You two have been selected to be the stars of the Complex’s hit new reality show, Trouble Survivor. The last contestants were blown up in an accidental explosion in the R&D Sector while filming. This is a temporary assignment, but if you survive the day and the ratings, there could be a permanent spot for you in the Mind Control (MC) Fall line-up. You’ll each be assigned a remote surveillance drone that will follow you throughout your exciting first day as a Troubleshooter. MC will provide excitement where there is none, with spontaneous explosions, vehicle chases and paid traitor actors who have been provided with real weapons. Good Luck!


  • All Other Troubleshooters

    • You are to report to your Service Firm positions for the day, until called on for Troubleshooter duty.


Intel:

  • The Free Enterprise secret society is trying to push a stolen shipment of PDCs in the Wagon Wheel.
  • There have been reports of Nameless members who are erasing Mutant Registration entries for a price.
  • The fire alarms have been compromised and may go off without warning.


 

Afternoon

 Troubleshooter Assignment: At approximately 1400 Abbie Mills and Ray Palmer will be dispatched to assist in a hostage situation in the Technical Services Section. A citizen with suspected ties to the Mystics, a secret society, is holding four staff members of the Pharmaceutical Distribution Center hostage with what appears to be a bomb strapped to his body. He is demanding a lifetime supply of Dynomorphen, a discontinued medication that has been associated with irresponsible feelings of euphoria, enhanced strength and excessive hair growth. He also wants a guaranteed safety exit to the surface of the Earth.


Evening
The evening is uneventful in Alpha Complex. Televid viewers will vote on the popularity of any remaining Trouble Survivor contestants by PDC. The Art Gallery will open it’s doors on an exhibit that displays ancient artwork of that long extinct animal, the cat. A flash hate rally against mutants will be held in the Commissary at 1900 hours before being dispersed by nearby Troubleshooters. And anyone within the sleeping quarters of the Wagon Wheel will be hit by the cloud of sleep aid gas expelled from the vents at 2100 hours. Sweet dreams, Alpha Complex.
