In another mission, agents were
assigned to investigate a distress signal from a drifting starship.
The characters boarded the starship after testing for life-signs, but
because of the ion gas emanating from its damaged engines, they were
unable to get a reading. Half of the team stayed on their ship, while
the other half went onto the derelict craft and hacked into the
database to access log files. There was evidence on the ship that
someone had attempted to wipe away bloodstains! Without revealing any
big spoilers to the mission, let's fast forward—events unfolded so
that the characters ended up on a nearby planet. The planet's
atmosphere was primarily CO2 and Argon, so characters had to put on
sealed suits to survive the deadly environment. One character became
curious about the existence of strange plant life, and went to
investigate a plant. He got too close, and the plant lashed out at
him with a thorny vine, puncturing his sealed suit. Another teammate
came to help, but he, too, was attacked by the plant and vented
oxygen. The team was without any ability to seal the holes, so they
spent some of the mission with one hand plugging the leak until they
could change into the only 2 spare suits they had available. Some
sage explorer's advice: wherever you go in the galaxy, always carry a
roll of duct tape!
