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 PCs have enough resources but too little time to win.(Irrational) General kind of weirdness or irregularity that prompts The Computer to assign a mission to the Troubleshooters: Everyone in Alpha Complex behaves in an inexplicably suspicious or hateful way toward one specific PC.
(Someone) Person, people, organization or agency responsible for the situation: The 21st-degree leader of the secret society Mystics, 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 geological event will destroy Alpha Complex (shatter it, open it to the elements, turn it into a cheerily warm volcano, etc.). The threat is real.
Mission Alert: A drugged INFRARED biohazard detection helper acting as a courier delivers alert verbally; seeks 10cr 'tip' for the delivery. Message is intact and correct.
Briefing: Briefing is in warbot armature fitting lab. Briefing officer wears reflec armor (El; colored as appropriate, or INDIGO) and fiddles with an exotic-looking flamethrower (S3K energy); expects attack at any moment.
This Mission: IntSec has been infiltrated by no less than 12 Commie traitors. Remove them; ensure they fall in the line of duty, so we can honor them as fallen heroes.
Outfitting: Infrared Market: Squad of Internal Security GREEN goons patrols market, "just out for an off-duty walk," taking bribes to "look the other way" for each transaction.
Debriefing: The debriefing room is locked when the PCs arrive, and no debriefing officer ever arrives no matter how long they wait.
Find weird phrasing, clearly erroneous output, or other signs of filthy commie mutant traitor sabotage? Copy the offending passages and email them to the High Programmer for investigation.
