typical day on the typical research outpost of a typical country
a quality* roll to dodge game with a title

You are an employee of the Dennit Research Corporation, working in a remote location under an aura of secrecy. The pay is "more than you'd get anywhere else", and your outpost is close enough to civilization for the company to bring you topside on the weekends - should you wish to, of course - so it's fine.

The time is 5 AM. The day is Tuesday, if you are not mistaken. One of the privileges of the outpost is that as long as you get the job done, you get to set your own schedule, meaning you could be anywhere and nowhere within the compound at this hour.

Who are you, what do you do?

Spoiler: Sheet! (click to show/hide)

I'll take... four. Maybe more, maybe less. We'll see.

*quality sold separately

Name: Nero
Occupation: Researcher of cyborg devices.
Starting level: Five.
Action: I research cyborgs!!! (by watching pirated Lawfully Acquired B movies)
Bio: Nero looks like a stereotypical nerd. Everything about him screams 'nerd.' He was beat up for his lunch money every day, from his first day at Kindergarten until the day he was moved to this bunker. He tends to get beaten up for his lunch money if he leaves the bunker on weekends. He deeply appreciates life in the bunker because of the lack of bullies. In high school he joined the robotics club, hoping for relief, but was not allowed to attach weapons to the robot. He then joined the chess club and won his first tournament (his opponent later beat him up behind the building and claimed the trophy). In college, he frequently had professors who beat his lunch money out of him. He dreams of attaching kill-o-blast fusion rifles to both arms, followed by jetpacks on his legs, laser eyes, and then various other anti-bully measures. He was hired for his great motivation and because the girl in charge of hiring him felt sorry for him after attacking him and finding nothing. (She's one of the people who take his lunch money if he leaves the bunker.)

Name: Barney
Occupation: Typical elite guard of typical research outpost, typically they need ones
Starting level: Seven
Action: Typically patrol the typical place
Bio: He was typically decent at using guns so typically he was invited by typical corporation to be a guard on this typical outpost. He likes to drink, and also donuts. How typical.

I totally didn't just typically overused the word 'typical'. It's typically impossible to overuse such a brilliant word!

Name: Pete
Occupation: Fry Cook/Appliance Technician
Starting Level: Three
Action: man the fryer!
Bio: a chef for all his life, Pete was recently discharged from the U.S. Navy because the commander did not approve of his maverick methods. Luckily, a man of his skills can always find employment. As he always says, there is always someone still more desperate than the one who fired him last.
