Rumors

Rumors are spreading on the Ring about Zero Company's newfound prosperity. People are asking questions. Bennic strictly forbids us from sharing any details of our deal with Republic Intelligence, but agrees we should get ahead of the gossip. What do we tell people?

The choice

What the operation puts to you, what each answer pays, and how it turned out. An option with two outcomes is one that can go wrong.

This one is a dilemma, so the roster has opinions about it. Everyone who backs the option you pick gains bond with Hawks and with each other, everyone who opposes it loses bond with Hawks, and a backer and an opposer lose bond between themselves. The six written operators react by name; anyone you recruit or create reacts by their dilemma archetype.

ATell people we're just good at our jobs. If you squint, it's the truth.

We told the curious locals that we're so good at our jobs that we're swimming in credits. People rolled their eyes, but took us at our word.

BKeep our mouths shut. Eventually, it'll blow over.

Our operators said nothing. It took a while, but eventually the locals lost interest.

CSpread rumors to throw people off the scent. Let's change the conversation.

Did you hear that Neesh inherited millions from his Aunt Heeris? Or that Zero Company is a front for an organ harvesting cabal? If you did, it's because our operators planted the story. The locals' curiosity is more than satisfied, and we can focus on our real work.
