The Commander nodded reasonably. "Agents of SEXCOM are well-compensated for their efforts. The starting rate for new recruits is one thousand gold pieces per mission. Room, board, and healing will be provided. You will also have full access to trading connections to purchase whatever equipment you wish with your gold. If you prove your skill, your responsibilities - and recompense - will increase accordingly. I shall also authorize your recruitment retroactively so that you will receive the payment of one thousand gold pieces for your role in reclaiming this base. I trust this is acceptable to you?"<br/><br/>(OOC: This is the 1000 gp mentioned OOC)<br/><br/>The Commander continued, "While King Gadley is aware of SEXCOM's existence, several of his dukes are secret supporters of our cause. If the king discovers the truth about his daughter's disappearance, he will launch an investigation, expose us, and force his dukes to cease their support. The princess is known to wander off on adventures regularly and no one will be suspicious until she hasn't returned in a few weeks, before which time we must rescue her. The truth is, she discovered SEXCOM herself and threatened to expose us if we didn't let her sign up."<br/><br/>"Now, King Gadley has learned of your success in clearing this 'monster lair' and has summoned you back to his castle for your reward. While you are there, you must also carry out a secret mission. In order to rescue the princess we must first determine her location and then create a method to get there. You must find two of the king's subjects, the female elf Court Arcanist Valena and the male dwarf Master Crafter Shenigan, and persuade them to join SEXCOM. Sika's ruby is linked to this Mission Control room and will allow two-way communication if needed during the mission. Are you ready to depart?"
