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. ☄ on your own There are plenty of other communal areas on the ship to explore! Pick a place, and see where it takes you. ( These scenarios can be used as in-game canon. ) C R O M I A While exhibits or museums exist to commemorate people or objects, planets like this are designed as a memoriam for certain eras across the universe. Welcome to Cromia—a one-of-a-kind place set in medieval times. Sort of. Most technology on Cromia isn’t particularly advanced, and the fashion leaves little to be desired. However, one thing is very noticeable about this planet once you decide to explore: there are no organic people anywhere to be found. Cromia is inhabited by a race of intelligent, humanoid robots who tend to and care for the environment as well as live peacefully with one another. Yet, some have been programmed to show a certain disdain for those who are, in some way, living, and their hostility ranges between hurling insults and vegetables to reporting trespassers to the authorities. Besides that, all seems well and prosperous on Cromia. ☄ the emperor’s new servos The Royal Family of Cromia has extended an invitation to join them for festivities, food, and drink beginning when the first sun sets. This night is a way to relax and perhaps romance that special someone in your life with a little song and dance. For those who sample certain drinks, they might find themselves doing just that without being able to help themselves. Or perhaps that delicious wine you've heard so much about is actually a very oily concoction meant for the robots of Cromia. For others, a little cheese or venison might instill the need for fisticuffs. Could the desserts hold the same sort of enchantment? Do you dare to find out? ☄ catch-a-riiiide The fastest way to get around is via carriage in the city, and each city is pulled by a large insectoid cyborg. Their handlers assure you they’re quite tame, especially since their silly organic minds have been implanted with a control chip. They’ll take you to whatever destination you program in without a hiccup! What could go wrong? Except on the way, that ever-so-important control chip happens to malfunction. Your once docile bug-stallion is now running amok down the streets. Do you jump out before you meet a sticky end? Or do you take control and force it to stop? Either way, you aren’t likely to be getting your deposit back from this. ☄ taste the rainbow Archery. Bugback riding. Jousting. These are the typical leisure activities suiting the time period you now find yourself in, which is what you might assume when you see the banners denoting a competition. Anyone can enter. Anyone can win the prizes. When you ask what sport you’ll have to play, they just say one word: skittles. Similar to bowling, this sport is played on a long, flattened field, and the point of it is to use the wooden ball to knock over the "skittles" that are set up in increasingly complex patterns for each round. These skittles are also made of wood, exactly ten feet high each, and the balls used vary from the size of a golf ball to a canon ball (dealer’s choice on ball size). People are usually split into teams, but for the sake of the competition, everyone plays alone. Whoever gets the most points moves forward in the competition, and hope that there are no accidents mid-throw!

No. They're not here. [What else could he say regarding them both? They were both dead. Chico died in the crash and Amanda....well, it was past history to Snake. Yet, it seemed Paz didn't know about any of this.]

Yeah, we're safe. Don't worry, Paz. I won't let anything happen to you. [He offered her a warm smile and squeezed her shoulder. Cipher weren't here, so couldn't touch any of them. Kaz and Paz were both safe now aboard the Moira. He wouldn't let anything happen to either of them.]

Lots of things have happened since Cipher destroyed MSF. It's complicated but I'm here to protect you if you need protection. [Because that's what he did. He was a soldier but also felt like a guardian. The medic inside of him telling him to do what is right.]

[It doesn't make sense. True, Snake had always been kind to her, but he'd stopped at nothing to take ZEKE out, and her with it. Is he really going to just accept her "amnesia", hook, line and sinker? Regardless of whether he will or not, why is he so willing to forget the past?

And he knows she means safe from Cipher. He knows she fears Cipher as much as she fought for it. For him.

She doesn't understand at all.]

What things?

[cardboard_boss]

[He had amnesia of his own so he could relate to how she felt. His memories weren't even his own. They were made up; planted in his head whilst he was laying in bed in hospital. All part of the set up to create him into Big Boss's image.]

You need to know something about me, Paz. [He exhaled softly. She had to know. He couldn't keep going with the whole Big Boss visage. He wasn't the man she thought he was. He had memories yes but he used to be a medic for MSF. A man doing his duty like the many others back at MSF. His whole life had been altered to carry out Zero's plans. He looked at her and closed his eyes for a moment. Would she believe him? She had to. She had to know.]

I'm not the man you think I am. I'm not Big Boss. This face you see? It belongs to another man. I was altered surgically to look like this, whilst being used as a decoy for the real Big Boss. Lots of shit happened after the helicopter crash. I went into a nine year coma woke up and became Big Boss.

[He's going to allow her to digest that and hope she won't find it too disturbing.]
