RUNNING DIAGNOSTICS FOR PERSONALITY MATRIX SLEEVING
NO ERRORS DETECTED
ACTIVATING FULL CONSCIOUSNESS

PROLOGUE: Are We There Yet?
Year: 1
Population: 7
Morale: Cautiously Optimistic

Dim, blue lights dance on top of your photosensitive dermis as sensations return -or perhaps, exist for the first time- in your sleeve. Bubbles rise from the depth of the black abyss that you find yourself in, your path lighted by the glow of the sleeving drone's lamps. Its many cameras fix themselves over your body. If its lenses could squint in analytical concentration, they would have.

• Recognize that they're checking for any sleeving defects. Personality Matrix corruption is, well, a literal death sentence. You've heard of cryoship missions failing due to catastrophic storage failure. (Hardmode: Permadeath is possible before planetfall.)
• Just standard procedure these surgeons do. Sleeve failures are virtually unheard of. (Easymode: Permadeath is impossible before planetfall.)

"Welcome back, Captain Silver," said a voice in your head. It sounds familiar... but you can't quite place it.

• Try to identify the owner of the voice. Is it someone you know? (Lets you name and create major NPCs)
• Temporary amnesia is normal. It's not like you can't review the Crew Manifest later anyways. (Major NPCs will be GM-generated)

Oh, good, you thought, This sleeve already has a telecommunication module installed. You pity those with land-based sleeves. The nausea and disorientation would likely be murder when you're not floating in the water. Also, not having an automatic gag reflex helps.

• You might be tired, but time is money. Start assessing the situation. (This crewmember probably only has time for one question, though.)
• Get some rest, maybe finish that book you've been reading before you de-sleeved. (There's not much a Director can do while everyone else is getting resleeved.)
• Something else (Write-in)

Spoiler: Haslam Barham Silver (click to show/hide)

Traits:

• Octopus Sleeve: You are small and lighter than a baseline human. You possess eight arms, a photosensitive dermis, and no bones. You can breathe underwater, but not on land. Your sleeve's lifespan is extremely short (2 years), necessitating higher frequency of resleevings.
• Engineer: Technological solutions are more intuitive to you.

*G.M. made characters, with occasional exceptions according to the G.M.'s whimsy. Maybe the tragic products of the reader's tendencies are signs of personality-matrix corruption...
**Food raid! You've heard the dry-siders talking about the things they do to their meat-blocks. Surface coating and scorching that supposedly doesn't work when exposed to water. It would have been unseemly to go chasing snacks, but with nobody else sleeved... It is a few dozen metres from the nearest transit tube to the dry-mess, but a couple of hours should be enough time...
