treesandcrabs | TDM 01: Your Mission, Should You Choose to Accept It

Welcome to the Cloverfield Project: Dimensional Nexus Recovery! The CIA has recruited you to help fix dimensional shenanigans. Your missions, should you choose to accept them, are as follows:

1. Clever Girl

The setting: a paleontological theme park that's been closed for a number of years. Your mission: retrieve a hilariously ugly golden idol that's been dropped in the middle of the park. Hopefully a dinosaur doesn't eat it before you can find it - or, you know, eat you instead.

2. The School Is Not Going 65 MPH

The setting: a stereotypical high school. Your mission: find the literal ticking time bomb that's been pulled in from the action-packed climax of someone else's story before it blows the school - and all of its occupants - sky high. Your pre-mission briefing didn't tell you exactly how much time is left on the bomb, but you're pretty sure it's less than an hour.

3. Wild Card

Feel free to come up with your own combination! What person/object/etc are you rescuing from what world? What's the situation that needs fixing?

(A note: Creating/running your own missions is highly encouraged in the game itself; sample missions are to give you examples for the test drive.)

"Any luck?" Desmond asks, voice quiet. He's not exactly keen on drawing the attention of any of the native creatures. Even if it would probably be cool to fight a raptor.

He really hopes the idol is down here instead of somewhere ridiculous.

"No. There is nothing golden here," Zenyatta replies sadly. The closest thing he has seen to an idol was a tiki cup carved into a very deformed dinosaur shape. He returns to his normal hovering height speak to Desmond.

"Have you heard anything from the others?" If they could just narrow down the search even by a little, it would help. Anything would be better than combing the entire theme park piece by piece.

Desmond shrugged, "Last I heard they were heading towards some buildings with corrals east of here."

He frowns for a moment, looking around and spotting a few security cameras. "So, probably an asshole question considering, but are you any good with computers? We might be able to get in to the security feeds and use the cameras to look or help everyone avoid t-rexes."

Zenyatta laughs. "Other omnics may take offense, but I understand why you ask. I could take a look. However, my area of expertise involves interpersonal relations and spiritual healing rather than hacking."

The gift shop seems to be a dead end, so they might as well try to gain access to the cameras. Zenyatta looks at the cameras near and inside the shop, trying to spot any cables or wires that could point them in the direction of a terminal. "These cameras probably connect to a computer in a backroom. They would not want visitors to see the monitors. Perhaps they will also connect to areas beyond the store."

If they don't, they'll have to find a more centralized hub like a security office.

That at least gets a bit of a smile out of Desmond. "We probably won't have to hack much, but getting whatever's here up and running might take two people."

He nods though, eyebrows knitting together as he shifts his eyesight to Eagle Vision, hoping he'll be able to pick out the correct wires to trace. While most of the world washes out the grey, Zenyatta is a reassuringly friendly blue in Desmond's sight.

No red in sight yet, which means they're safe for now.

"Back room might also have keys and a map. Places like this tend to have back passages or tunnels for employees." He says, voice a little slower and monotone as he concentrates.

There is not much more they can do at their current location, so Zenyatta starts to scan the walls for any doors. He finds one next to a half fallen rack of dinosaur plush. Hovering over a sad and matted stegosaurus, he makes his way over, and Zenyatta wipes his hand over the thick dust covering the sign plate on the door. It says "Staff Only."

"The tunnels would give us the ability to move around quickly and safely if the wildlife has not entered them already. Hopefully this will lead us there."

He tries to turn the handle of the door, but it doesn't budge. Locked.

"Another roadblock presents itself."
