SRI Project #4 - Multi-Objective Fiction Prompt

Justinios Drake, without consulting anyone else within the leadership of Ektroris, Taldryan or the SRI, has decided to set a trap for the Collective at the new SRI Headquarters on Iosan. When the Aleena was notified that the captured Torin Morgath had a hidden tracker implanted under her skin, he decided it was time to draw out the Collective and show them through blood and glory that the SRI was not to be trifled with.

You and your team have been included in the plan to defend the SRI on Iosan. But you will not be fighting alone. The SRI does possess a Stormtrooper Battalion command staff which does have a 38-member security detail armed with BlasTech E-11 blaster rifles. You also are able to use the SRI’s paramilitary Commander Sorqa Buuk and it’s Executive Officer Helen Beck in your defense plans as well. Your also have access to the Wampas the SRI recovered from Kagu Shi’s operations, if you so choose. Using them does have consequences.

Multi-Prompt

  • Prompt #1 (Positive Morality): You choose to keep the Wampas safely within their pens deep within the HQ. While you will not be able to utilize them in your defensive efforts, they will remain available for future experiments and will be the first big scientific project undertaken by the SRI. With the Wampas already within the SRI’s control and with the data from Kagu Shi’s own scientists recovered by the SRI, researchers believe they can quickly make progress in further weaponizing these beasts.

  • Prompt #2 (Negative Morality): You choose to use the Wampas to help with the defense of the SRI facility. While all of them will be expended in the process, you decide it is worth losing a possible research avenue to keep the Collective from rescuing Torin Morgath. The research division will be back to square one and will need to develop a project to work on from the ground up.

The rest is up to you, go wild with this. The composition of enemy forces, the final outcome of the defense, etc. I can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with. The only restriction I have is do not kill off player characters that do not belong to you, i will not be able to use your entry as canon if that is the case.
