Captain Jack A T sits in the cockpit of his space frigate, the Orpheus.
A trading vessel that carries goods between the Earth and its Mars colonies,
it normally has little to no issues to worry about. The paper in Jack's hands,
however, painted a different story.
Seems a psychic enthraller from the Red Knives of Mars, a Mars independence group,
had been tracked to the spaceport the Orpheus had taken off from, at which point
he was lost. It was discovered that a tracking device planted on his person was
traced to the Orpheus just now, but the tracker has since been destroyed.
Normally this would be bad, but not the worst case scenario. However, the Orpheus
is also carrying a psy-amplifier, a device that magnifies a person's latent
psychic abilities a thousand fold. In the hands of a psychic enthraller like
the Red Knives member upon the ship, the result would be a madman capable
of enslaving entire fleets with a thought.
Jack's orders are as follows: "Work with your passengers to determine who
seems to be the cultist, and eliminate them. Do not dock until the psychic
has been killed. He likely has the ability to change his appearance, so you
will be able to tell when you are successful when the dead person reverts
to the form of the rebel. There is no way to tell who the cultist is while
he is alive, so your only hope is to kill people one by one until
the culprit is found. At all costs, protect the psy-amplifier."
After gathering the passengers aboard the ship, a collection of merchants
and travellers and vagabonds, and informing them of what has occurred, Jack
hands out a key to each person. Only when all the keys are inserted into
a console on the ship's dashboard will the signal be sent to Earth that
all is clear. By distributing the keys, Jack hopes to prevent the worst
case of the enthraller overpowering everyone.
Unless the psychic dominates enough of the passengers to do so.
May God have mercy on your souls.
Day 1 has begun! Jack A T is the confirmed townie!
