[b]Part I: Welcome to TalonCo.[/b]
The Party's ships arrive at the station, having met up earlier through radio, and accompanying each other to the designated area— after all, the suspicious nature of the measure calls for an extra hand. Four extra hands certainly didn't hurt.
You exit Hyper-Space and are met by the sight of a large, grey rock— obviously a moon. What's odd about this moon is that it's encircled by a thick, washer-like ring, which becomes thicker in height the closer to the center it gets. Along the outer edge, you witness several large rectangular plates— most of them are broken, and others seem to be absent, as if torn off. Only a single one seems to be functional as it continues to rotate its path along the edge.
[b]Objective: Radio into the station and request access.[/b]
[b][i]All participating members, please check in. Absent members may only check in late up to Part II.[/i][/b]

[b]Loot obtained:[/b] 30x Pipe Bombs [i]Hand grenades constructed from lighters, lead pipes, and gunpowder. Although not as effective as a frag grenade, they remain a Prima-5 favorite due to their easy construction and low material cost.[/i] 15x Kerosine Bombs [i]Incendiary grenades crafted from glass and small bits of metal, their chemical contents create a long-lasting napalm when exposed to oxygen.[/i] 10x Plasma Grenades [i]These obviously don't belong here... The green glow and shiny chrome metal are significantly out of place in the rusted metro of Prima-5. Scans display the metal matches no earthly compound, and should in fact be burning in contact with the oxygen.[/i] 5x Frag Mines [i]Large fragmentation mines. Explosions can be remotely detonated or on proximity.[/i]

[b]He searches the now cleared lockers for a piece of the code.[/b]

The lockers are completely empty. It seems they were simply bait for the unaware.

[b]He goes to the desk and overlooks it to see if it may be rigged as well.[/b]

The desk seems to be fine; the same safe door and canister as the one in the other rooms.

Bump.

[spoiler]About what?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]That bypasses security. And one more thing: I'm not tolerating Shadow's "noclip" powers. It spoils plot.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]What, "noclip"?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Thats what your powers do, right? Phase through walls?[/spoiler]
