I don't know if this was said anywhere but do the transports still have access to the Initiative library and records of past missions and stuff? I ASSUME ANYTHING THAT HAD A DIGITAL COPY HAS SOMEHOW BEEN MOVED but since I don't recall if that was mentioned I figured I'd ask, since it probably informs some characters of possible things they could do.
Who: Rosette, Chrono, Satella, Break, Kevin, Watari, Allen Walker, Maya, Link and Tempest (CLOSED, ten characters is as much as I can reliably run at the same time)
When: Ten-fifteen years ago
Where:Research facility or factory in an industrialized UE territory.
Mission Objective: This group will be specifically requesting a mission to help prevent the attack.
The mission will have three objectives. The first will be to successfully infiltrate the factory working crew based on forged credentials and a little hacking by our lovely scientist.
Second will be to carry out a two pronged mission, the first will be for the heavy hitters to break into a top secret area and destroy what was a controversial weapon development... The real goal, however, will be a quieter mission that that was a cover for, specifically to upload a flawed schematic into the factory's production line to create an exploitable glitch in the missile guidance system.
Thirdly they will be attempting to gather any information they can through the computer systems while they are there. This may or may not have anything useful at all.
I was thinking the mission would have these main components:
Big Guns, IE the really dangerous part/full of explosions
Watari: Has hacked Hell, literally, his role would be computer things
Watari's escorts
Break: Reconnaissance and "ridding" the area of security guards :D
Free agents: Healing, rescue, lookout and of course, the pull out
(I figure where people go beyond that can be hashed out ICly)
Success or Failure?: I would like the primary two objectives to be successes, if possible. The third, feel free to roll for it or it be a failure, since this is a pretty ambitious mission as it is.

Given the cascades of failsafes built into launch and detonation programs, this is really only meant to create an additional tool, rather than solve the issue, naturally.
Who: Cross Marian and Han Solo
When: Early 21st century
Where: New York
Mission Objective: Officially, clothing and personal hygiene supplies (baby wipes, paper towels, shampoo/conditioner, soap, menstrual pads & tampons, nothing would you would need to leave a Walmart for really). Unofficially, luxury items such as cigarettes, alcoholic drinks, hand creams and body lotions, good shampoo and conditioner, fine soaps, etc.
Success or Failure?: Success for them. They'll be doing runs a few times because hey good at it and you don't want either of them bored so it's not like they're trying to haul everything back at once. all of the non-essential items will be smuggled in.

All of this sounds lovely, including smuggling in the non-essentials past... that one guy manning the Transport Pad, and the AI (who will merely be grumpy that it cannot keep accurate lists of inventory, thank you very much, Cross and Han!).
Happy shopping, boys! Please link the log here when it is posted.

They'll be sent on their mission with the prototype nodes which help bring back larger quantities of supplies. They'll need to make sure not to attach any of these nodes to the truck itself; it would damage the area around the transport pad, and the transport pad itself, if pulled through. This will be stressed to them by the operative at the Transport Pad.

They may keep finding that orderlies run into them no matter where they turn, but by and large, outside of shenanigans (and one janitor who appears to be stalking them all) they shouldn't encounter anything extremely out of the ordinary.

Who: Gilbert Nightray, Oz Vessalius & Kate Kane
When: between 2020 till before the war broke out entirely? Futuristic medicines might be handier to have on board.
Where: Switzerland
Mission Objective: medical supply run to keep the clinic stocked with necessities they might need ASAP. Pharmaceutical drugs, syringes, bandages/gauzes, rubbing alcohol/disinfectant, medical equipment, anesthetics, etc. LOTS OF CLINIC STUFF.
Unofficially: Gil needs nicotine patches and Kate might want to pick up some personal hygienic items. And a scarf for someone. And a beer.
Success or Failure?: success, please.

They're being zapped to 2161, to one of the largest pharmaceutical companies that existed in that timeperiod in Switzerland. Things will look notably more clean lined and futuristic than they do in present-time Exsilium (or parts of the United Earth.) All the unofficial items they are searching for still exist, and randomly, nicotine patches come in flavors.

Who: Just Sarah all up in her independent self.
When: 2013, which she'll be trying to specifically stress and request for.
Where: CANADA. or generic north america.
Mission Objective: She's going to say it's for a supply run involving hitting up multiple stores (mostly clothing, food and other miscellaneous goods) in the middle of the night to nick whatever she can bring back. Basically, if there's a request for it, she'll bring it.
Success or Failure?: RNG it mods. Her objective isn't really motivated by caring for the other transports, although she will try to carry it out as best as she can.

RNG rolled a fail, but a partial success is also fine! Keep what she does bring back on the small and fits in a backpack side, and whatever she manages to get her hands on and isn't taken away if she gets caught by the local law enforcement is up to you!

Who: Oz Vessalius and Rose Lalonde
When: Any point after 2013 and before the war? Perhaps at a point where usage of robotics is insidiously sneaking its way into more ordinary life and households, culminating in the AI running the UE. Okay I might be reaching I just want future Roombas.
Where: Perhaps China? Some kind of factory where they're being built or else kept for storage before being shipped off to stores. Preferably with surprisingly stringent security for sneaking around shenanigans and other issues.
Mission Objective: GRAND THEFT ROOMBA. Oz and Rose find themselves sent off to collect a small army of Roombas to simplify upkeep of the moon base and generally drive everyone nuts.
Success or Failure?: We would like at least a partial success! Futuristic Roombas with particularly long-lived batteries (and perhaps accidental creepy features like automated voices and furby eyes) can help keep the base clean and the pets distracted and generally be amusing.

Edited (is roomba a proper noun we just don't know) 2013-10-11 01:21 (UTC)
2186, Beijing, China. While no longer the capitol, a sizeable amount of inventory comes in and out of Beijing all the time. This includes the knock off semf-service at home cleaning devices called Broomba's, in recent times expanding to be character specific and a variety of subtly different shapes, colors, and yes, indeed, even speaking and eye-engaging. Think Roomba met Wall-E. They will fight you for your dirt.

Who: Kido Tsubomi and Ahiru
When: Modern day!
Where: New York City
Mission Objective: First and foremost, they're going to see if they can find things for people to do in their free time on the moon! Music, movies (unsure if there's a good way to use these on the moon base, but they would look anyways!) books, board games, other stuff like that. They'll also be picking up miscellaneous supplies while they're there.

Success or Failure?: DEPENDS ON YOUR DEFINITION OF SUCCESS...I mean they will probably be able to snag stuff, but one of them will not make it through airport security. Take a wild guess which one.

All of this sounds good! Minus the date. How rude! Haha, have fun guys, and bring back what you can of all that, though the bigger items may be hard to pull through without the tech the Initiative (all 12 of them) may be able to hand over. Saul should be familiar with it from his and Jesse's pirate ship stealing attempt; on smaller, singular objects, it will succeed where otherwise it has failed.

Rolled a success! This will slow down research outside of North America, thus also slowing down thinktanks in North America. It takes longer for the race to reach a nuclear weapon that's viable is reached; one other mission with a similar goal may indeed cause World War II to not be ended through the use of nuclear weaponry, but through other, longer, probably messier in some senses means.

When: 2623
Where: Germany
Mission Objective: Kanaya and Ahiru (both when in their human forms) are uniquely qualified to pose without fake IDs as two interns for an arms dealer that will later become affiliated with the UE. They make phone calls, sort documents, and otherwise perform mundane tasks in a way that will result in the stocks falling over the next few days instead of drastically rising, leading to a much more minor company presence by 2700. The present day effect on UE arms stockpiles is probably slight but perhaps a specific battle early in the history of the UE could have been lost instead of won because of this or something.

One of the United Earth shows of power did not go as smoothly as intended. A second cover-up and smoothing over was required, leading to more unrest in earlier days. Every bit counts; it eats away at the base of how sure the United Earth could be of their control early on.
