Part of the issue is that most security staff are already far too busy, no one has time to wait around and oversee the system. I guess whats really needed is a separate Security AI who role is identifying violations of space law, setting wanted states, and filling in criminal records. So: Separate channel for reports gets read by the Sec AI. Sec AI then uses camera magic to discover if the report looks accurate. If not then the reporter is charged with filing a false report and set to arrest.

Create a separate coms channel only for reports (:r?), give it a different colored font. When a full name is said on that channel it gets automatically added to a list of "suspects". When wearing "video googles" these names become clickable allowing to wearer to quickly see through the nearest camera, ascertain the validity of the report, and toggle arrest status.

"Alien Queen"? I think not!

As an act of diplomatic goodwill Nanotrasen has arranged for the King/Queen of (Race/Faction) to visit their research station. At the beginning of the round, Centcom announces the impending visit and orders several random preparations be made. After about five minutes the Royal Shuttle docks with the station, it includes the following passengers; The Royal, two body guards, and three "entourage". Among the crew are agents sent by the syndicate to disrupt the visit. Their objectives may range from theft of royal items to assassination. Possible Objectives for the Crew: Royal Completes a "Grand Tour" (Visiting every major room on the station including the famed maintenance closets.) Royal samples a wide selection of the stations gourmet food/drink. Royal sleeps in a fine room. Royal accepts x number of fine gifts. Royal signs a treaty to improve relations. Royal escapes alive. The Royal's ship is filled with riches and unique items, a prime target for mischief. There is also a communications console that can be used to call for emergency assistance to rescue the royal. In the event that the station offends the Royal, war can be declared through this console causing failure or major disaster. The Royal carry's a stamp that should be honored by station staff. Royal "boons" and pardons can be given in this manner. In this way the Royal may be hounded for favors by the common folk. The entourage members each have espionage objectives but must perform their official duty's as directed by the Royal or face harsh punishment.

I like this idea, I feel like it fits well with SS13's silly tendency to pull content from various different scifi. Though I don't see an "escape" objective being consistent with the lore. Don't reavers just murderbone until they run out of people to attack?

For some reason I really like the idea of giving the librarian something dangerous to do besides reading woody's got wood.

Doom/ERT?

Lets see, other possible objectives... Steal X amount of money. Exile the Captain/Head/Whoever. Break X number of windows. Graffiti X number of floors. Waste X number of supply points on one thing. Deface embassy of X race. Waste X amount of station resources. (Counted by usable items spaced.) Cause food shortage. (% of crew malnourished) Ransack Office. Ransack Department. Call shuttle.

Sounds interesting, just for fun I came up with some ideas. Up-link Market Ideas: Reconfigure-able ID: A civilian ID that the name can be changed on an unlimited number of times. Strange Station-Bounced Radio: Allows you to anonymously speak over coms. Grey "Fire Extinguisher": When sprayed on someone it changes their uniform color to grey. "C4": Looks like the real thing, on detonation it produces a loud "BOOM!" that basically works like a flash-bang. "Pen": On stabbing it makes the person really drunk. "Stamp": Can be set to forge any stamp. The resulting mark is somewhat different from the real thing though, but will pass a lazy inspection. Hacked Arcade Machine Circuit Board: Prizes are all toy versions of security gear they appear the same unless examined. Anonomatrix Cartridge: Added to PDA it allows you to send anonymous messages. Grey Coat: Its a grey coat with a large suit slot. Camera glasses: Take pictures of abuses. Chameleon Closet: When deployed it looks like a normal grey closet with the door open. When the door is closed the closet becomes invisible but still blocks movement. Cannot be welded without ruining the effect. Clown Beacon: All clowns on station become drawn to it.

I have such a soft spot for Aranam. Always fun to be around, even if its just silly flirting. :lol: I do feel kinda bad about her getting blown up last night in the shuttle's brig though.
