This page is intended to be a discussion of future F.A.T.E. missions to give the player characters a little more choice in the direction of the storyline and character development.
Calling Vincent White
To: White, Vincent From: Coltrane, Manami Had a good time at New Year's. Interested in dinner? My treat. Manami
Where Eric might see danger, F.A.T.E. would see opportunity. There are many unanswered questions regarding Manami's dance partner, Yukawa Sato; and as Shiawase CFS CEO, Manami ultimately resides at the top of the management chain over the Drakes Bay nuclear facility. It's rare to get access to such a powerful corporate executive, but Eric/Vincent appears to have made great strides. It's certainly somewhat... odd... that Manami would even bother contacting Vincent. Eric would be wise to remember the words of the great philosopher Admiral Ackbar.
This message presents a very real opportunity to collect more information vital to F.A.T.E.'s interests. Someone of Manami's position would surely have access to valuable files within Shiawase that could aid F.A.T.E. in its objective to shut down Drakes Bay. If Dmitri could get "behind enemy lines" so to speak, and access Shiawase systems with Coltrane's credentials, it could yield valuable information. It would also be beneficial to obtain fingerprints and a copy of Coltrane's keycard, which he was unable to obtain over New Year's.
There's certainly a feeling of uneasiness regarding Manami -- she's wicked smart and might suspect Vincent isn't who he seems to be. Her reaching out to him is certainly worthy of suspicion, and he must be careful if he responds or takes her up on the dinner offer.
Let me know how Eric would respond to this -- right now, only he knows about this. No one else in F.A.T.E. is aware of this communication.
Drakes Bay Demolition
F.A.T.E. is developing plans to destroy Shiawase Atomics' Drakes Bay nuclear power facility. They have gathered significant evidence that Shiawase is producing a never-before-seen weapon of mass destruction at the facility - the Mana Bomb. Dr. Yau has some evidence that Shiawase has managed to solve a mathematical conjecture he co-authored decades ago in his thaumatergical studies. He believes there is still time to cripple the research being done by destroying both the facility and the research data they must be gathering at the plant. Normally once data is on the matrix, even Shiawase's internal systems, it's impossible to erase, but the amount of data they need to collect is immense. F.A.T.E. can only hope there is one copy of it, and it must be destroyed along with the facility.
Fortunately for F.A.T.E., they saved Dr. Hideki Tonogawa's life in a previous incident. He owes them a favor and may be willing to risk his career to aid the team.
The primary objectives are:
- Destroy the Drakes Bay nuclear facility
- Make it look like an accident -- the CFS Government cannot be implicated; it would cause an international incident.
- Any discovered research datastores must be destroyed with the facility
The team has the following advantages:
- Dr. Hideki Tonogawa owes the team a favor (rating 5) for saving his life.
- Shiawase CFS CEO Manami Coltrane's DNA sequence and voice pattern
- Access to 3 complete mana-bomb devices and 2 dual-natured "detonator" mechanisms
- California Intelligence is working on collecting a map of the facility
Items F.A.T.E. would like to accomplish before undertaking any action against the facility:
- Fingerprints and keycards with access to the facility
- Feel free to add to this list
