Updates to the Mission based on decisions of the GMs and the plot discussion thread will be added to the Mission briefing page. This will be the method by which we maintain clarity it what plot movement has been accepted.<br/><br/>Here it is thus far:<br/><br/>1. The chroniton emissions are actually life forms that are akin to insects. They seek out biological life forms for either procreation or nutrition. Like insects, they are non-sentient and don't communicate. Rather they use instinct like moths.<br/><br/>2. Sam MacReady is somehow immune to the effects of the chroniton life forms, similarly to how some people are immune to various toxins from animals.<br/><br/>3. Anyons have been confirmed in the past to eliminate chroniton particles. This requires significant anyon levels. Any phasing effects are reversed using this process.<br/><br/>4. Not only are the life forms on the ship being affected, but as are the biologically based components of the ship.<br/><br/>No decisions or consensus has been reached on:<br/><br/>A. Who/How the life forms are identified.<br/><br/>B. How to remove the life forms from the crew's bodies and the ship's systems.<br/><br/>C. How to reverse the aging effects.<br/><br/>These (A-C) should be the topic of the plot discussion thread and I will also post this there.
