The Computer takes in your answers silently, its giant eye scruitinizing your faces from the briefing room computer link for any hint of treasonous twitching or insincerity. It seems to be analysing this in some detail. The Computer [in cheerful booming voice]: Citizen Ianthe-R-1 please step forward into adjacent Termination Booth Z80-BBJ. The Computer is your friend! The colour drains from Ianthe-R's face but he smies weakly and steps inside with the camera and laser turret tracking him all the way in. The soundproof door slides shut. The Computer: Briefing will resume after Citizen Ianthe-R-1's processing. Your !@#$%^&*igned equipment has arrived. A small converted scrubbot trundles in with 3 shiny red boxes, each with one of your names it. It drops the parcels. After giving the floor a quick scrub it trundles out the door again. Anyone care to open them? All players please check for PMs ---- Arianix: Feiticera-R-THG-1 Happiness Officer Tics: Fiddles absentmindedly with br!@#$%^&* knuckles.
