Ego Crash

The Egocrashers are a small organization in the solar system's underworld that are primarily involved in the theft, sale, development, and trafficking of dangerous and forbidden weapons and technologies. They are known among transhumanity's criminal elements for hiring individuals with unique backgrounds to undertake dangerous jobs that pay very highly.

You are a fairly longstanding freelance operative in the organization; not in the inner circle, but trusted with dangerous assignments. Typically, the leadership reaches out to operatives via an internal job board, but this time you received a personal message from Ghost, your usual handler and one of the five bosses. They want you to undertake a particularly dangerous mission: a gatecrashing mission through a private pandora gate. Specifically, they want you to deliver a highly complex nanotechnological payload to an alien computer system at the heart of a frozen planet to render the planet exploitable.

The mission's payout upon success is almost unbelievable.

System: Eclipse Phase, Second Edition (free rules available here). No prior familiarity with the system required! The system is fairly crunchy, but I am willing to help you learn.

Posting Frequency: At least once per week, twice if you can manage it; this game has a fairly relaxed pace.

Guidelines: Please be polite and don't be a jerk to other players. Please also do not use generative AI/LLMs to write or edit posts; we would rather interact with each other without our words being filtered through an LLM.

Game Type: This mission is a medium-length investigative mission that is part of a longer campaign involving uncovering the secrets of the Egocrashers.
