ABOARD THE MOIRA
Whether adjusting to space travel has been difficult or not, there is always something to be done. From working to leisure, the Moira offers a multitude of opportunities to get to know your crewmates a bit better. Exploration of the ship is highly encouraged, but as another planet grows closer to being docked, things start to get a little hectic. You'll notice a slight change in the artificial gravity as the Moira is pulled into a gravitational field; however, more noticeable changes can be found in the overall morale as you prepare to descend.
☄ buddiesDue to several incidents recent to the ship, the captains have instructed all current crew members to "help" the new arrivals from the Ingress to the Medbay and anywhere else they may need to go—until they find their space legs. The senior member will be responsible for making sure all appropriate questions are answered and assist them in getting their uniforms. Yet, it seems there's a sudden shortage of anything wearable and everything else will be found in any of the laundry rooms throughout the decks. Nothing says getting to know your buddy like taking turns washing the clothes you're going to be stuck in for the length of your journey aboard the Moira. ☄ on your ownThere are plenty of other communal areas on the ship to explore! Pick a place, and see where it takes you.
Traveling the depths of space does come with its dangers, and one of those happens to be repairing parts of the ship damaged by debris or making routine checks on essential units to ensure they are functioning as correctly as all reports are reading. One of the most important aspects of the Moira happens to be its wings, which are located near the tower. They are the core of the ship's energy, and without them, most of its life support and navigation systems would cease to work. However, maintenance on these delicate structures is no easy task...
☄ spacewalkDue to a shortage of crew available in the crow's nest, others have been asked to put on a suit and carefully check the status of the wings as well as repair (or replace) any of the panels that encompass their makeup, if need be. Think of this as an exercise in enforcing that buddy-system the captains have put into place. Do you trust the person out there with you to keep you anchored to the ship? Or will you float away into the abyss of space? ☄ flareWithout proper warning, the light of a close star has suddenly increased output significantly in the form of a solar flare, causing the wings to respond accordingly. They brighten, growing considerably hotter, enough to warrant a warning from your MID, and to contain such a sharp intake of energy, they expand automatically—a safety mechanism built into the ship. Those in the Tower tell those outside to return immediately, but the command might come too late, the response in the wings having blinded and knocked you from your holding on the side of the ship. The suits are only connected to Navigation and Medbay via your thermals and MIDs, so hopefully someone is watching. Or did you listen to the captains and have that buddy out there with you?
( Any of these scenarios can be used as in-game canon. )
