Turn Zero- Landing
Unity Debris
The explosions across Unity’s spine have transformed the once mighty interstellar craft into so much parts and debris. And while much remains in orbit threatening the hastily launched satellites with high-speed impact, much has fallen to Planet, largely landing in the dense ‘jungles’ in the north-eastern regions of the eastern continent- north of the ‘Federation of Free People’s’ colony, as well as in the seas north and east of this.
Communications Satellites
A number of communication satellites were successfully launched prior to the explosions. Communications with these satellites is inconsistent despite the satellites seemingly operating properly. This is probably due to local electromagnetic interference from Planet’s surface.
Air Quality
Sensors do not report any obvious toxins or poisons in the local air though it is filled with biologics of unknown nature that could well be very toxic to Earth-derived life. Caution is advised.
Acidity
Long-term volcanic activity has dispersed significant volatiles into the atmosphere that return oto the surface as ‘acid rain’. Many landers, especially those in volcanic regions, reveal lower than expected local soil and water pH.
Lander Manufacturing
Note that your landers are outfitted with small factories to generate parts you may need. Additionally you have a number of lightweight, easy-to-build pre-fabricated buildings you can assemble to form part of your colony should you desire to do so.
Atlas-Mitsubishi
Spoiler :
Arrival
In the chaos of the emergency departure, identifying and executing on a landing strategy had to be accelerated considerably. Operators identified a relatively flat plain near a mountain range on the south-eastern continent. The emergency landing at the site soon revealed that the thick snow and ice covering the site were quickly melted and destabilized by the hydrazine-powered thrusters. Upon landing, the entire unit tipped unexpectedly, landing on its side and causing considerable damage to materials and people within. In fact, the main exit to the lander is now deep under the icey crater created by the landing. Exiting the lander will require either cutting a way out or using smaller emergency exits.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite appears stable.
External Scans
Cameras reveal thick snow and ice across a plain and into the nearby mountains. Volcanoes rise from these mountains throwing grey and black ash blankets upon the snow. ‘Forests’ of stubby tubular ‘trees’ rise through the snow all around the lander. These spout long thin filaments like cotton threads that wave in the wind.
Beacons
A Unity colonization beacon is emitting a signal. The beacon identifies a pod with inventory listed as ‘construction waldos’ and a sub-inventory effectively listing a number of semi-automated heavy construction vehicles/drones that might be useful for building the colony. The location is listed as 45 kilometers to the north-west (in the snowy mountains).
A more distant beacon is transmitting intermittently and inconsistently from the east. We’ll need to explore that location to get a better sense of where that pod might be and what it might contain.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. We will need to develop our own sustainable sources of food and materials.
Apaurusheya
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Apaurusheya lander arrives on the southern coast of the north-eastern continent without incident, landing in a small clearing amidst thick ‘jungles’.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is very unstable. Only intermittent communication is possible.
External Scans
Cameras reveal thick fog all about. Creek-like rivulets steam into the air. Through the fog, a ‘jungle’ of tube-like ‘trees’ extending far into the fog limits vision to only the immediate surrounding. Thin cotton-like threads extend from their ‘branches’, twisting slowly in the wind and fog.
Scans in the non-visual spectrum reveal a higher than expected electromagnetic field throughout the localized area, the source of which is not immediately obvious.
Beacons
A Unity colonization beacon is emitting a signal nearby. The beacon identifies a pod with inventory listed as ‘drilling equipment’ and a sub-inventory effectively listing a number of semi-automated heavy drilling vehicles/drones that might be useful for building our colony. The location is listed as 25 kilometers to the south-west (in the seas?).
A more distant beacon is transmitting intermittently and inconsistently from an unknown location.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. We will need to develop our own sustainable sources of food and materials.
Autumn Crown
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Autumn Crown lander arrives on the western shore of the eastern province without incident, landing in a wide tidal flat that floods to approximately 10cm during high tide and reveals 1-2 km of thick mud during low tide. The lander is sunk to a depth of approximately 6m at a 15 degree tilt but this is not expected to affect entry or egress.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is very unstable. Only intermittent communication is possible.
External Scans
Cameras reveal thick fog throughout the mud-flats. Rivulets feed through the mud from thick ‘jungles’ further inland. The ‘jungles’ are made up of towering aloe-like ‘plant’ structures who’s edges extrude long ‘cotton thread’-like tendrils that extend as far as your cameras can see.
The tidal flats are spotted with small masses of fleshy-looking material in the shapes of rounded cones. Cameras reveal these are motile, even if just barely and the ‘creatures’ or ‘plants’ may be awaiting the return of the tides to resume activity. Other, rarer creatures can occasionally be spotted in the mud but the fog prevents further resolution.
The seas beyond team with biomass but the nature thereof is not immediately obvious.
Scans in the non-visual spectrum reveal a higher than expected electromagnetic field throughout the localized inland area, the source of which is not immediately obvious.
Beacons
A Unity colonization beacon is emitting a signal nearby. The beacon identifies a pod with inventory listed as ‘agricultural supplies’ and a sub-inventory effectively listing a number of inflatable greenhouses, seed-stock, and earth microbiota. The location is listed as ~12 kilometers to the east (in the hills beyond the fog)
A more distant beacon is transmitting intermittently and inconsistently from the western sea. The distance is approximated at ~40km.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. We will need to develop our own sustainable sources of food and materials.
We are experiencing energy shortages. Our landing pod was designed to be supplemented with external power-generating colony pods and due to the emergency situation, these did not follow us to surface.
The Commonality
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Commonality lander arrives at the south-eastern end of a peninsula projecting from the north-western continent. Their landing site is located in a series of steep jungle-covered canyons and hills ~10km inland of the sea. The lander itself is located in the bottom of one of these canyons, squarely in a small fast-flowing river. Despite being slightly off-target, the landing was uneventful.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is very unstable. Only intermittent communication is possible.
External Scans
Cameras reveal thick fog all about. At the edge of the river, through the fog, a ‘jungle’ of tube-like ‘trees’ extends far into the fog-filled sky and limits vision to only the immediate surrounding. Thin cotton-like threads extend from their ‘branches’, twisting slowly in the wind and fog.
Scans in the non-visual spectrum reveal a higher than expected electromagnetic field throughout the localized area, the source of which is not immediately obvious.
Beacons
A pair of Unity colonization beacons are emitting a signal nearby. The first beacon identifies a pod at ~30 km north-west with inventory listed as ‘scout rovers’ and a sub-inventory effectively listing four six-wheeled vehicles mounted with sensors and long-distance communication equipment. The second beacon identifies a pod at 50km south with inventory listed as ‘solar energy plant’. The signal from this pod is only intermittently received and seems to be constantly in danger of disappearing completely.
A more distant beacon is transmitting intermittently and inconsistently from an unknown location.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The commonality will need to develop their own sustainable sources of food and materials.
Federation of Free People
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Federation of Free People makes a landing on a wide pebble-strewn beach at the edge of a lake north and east of a craggy mountain range.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is relatively stable. Communication is possible but occasional breaks occur in the signal.
External Scans
Winds are extremely high at present and the sky is unexpectedly clear. The view of the lake reveals pale blue water dotted with small islands.
Both the islands and the inland hills are covered small reddish bulbs and thin branching ‘tree’-like structures. The trees have small purple ‘leaf’-like structures that may serve as photosynthetic energy capture while the red bulbs extend long threads that extend for approximately 100 meters into the sky.
Between the vegetation the hills and mountains are strewn with exposed rock, boulders, and towering pillars of stone.
Scans in the non-visual spectrum reveal a weak fluctuating electromagnetic field emanating from the nearby hills and mountains.
Beacons
A Unity colonization beacon is emitting a signal nearby. The beacon identifies a pod with inventory listed as ‘construction module’ and a sub-inventory effectively listing a number of dedicated construction drones and tele-operated robots (bulldozers, cranes, etc). The location is listed as ~30 kilometers to the south-west.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The Federation will need to develop our own sustainable sources of food and materials.
The Federation are experiencing energy shortages. The exo-lance walkers will shut down without supplemented energy.
The High Commune of Outlook
Spoiler :
Arrival
The High Commune of Outlook’s lander arrives on the north-western coast of the north-western continent during a spectacular local storm. The landing soon turns into a series of emergency maneuvers and do or die piloting but ultimately the lander manages a landing, some 3 km inland of the sea- amidst a low-lying marsh. The landing, while not resulting in any immediate deaths, soon leads to the lander tipping as one ‘leg’ falls deep into a brackish sinkhole, throwing everything inside askew. Despite the storm and the hard-landing, the worst injuries are broken bones and no one dies and no major injuries are reported.
Communication
Communication with orbital satellites is intermittent at best. Perhaps as the storm subsides so too will the interference.
External Scans
The storm continues unabated beyond the lander walls and cyclonic rain lashes the lander furiously. Visibility is almost null and despite the hour, almost no sunlight reaches down to the lander cameras.
Using low-light magnification, external cameras reveal wetland broken by towering tube-like branching ‘trees’. Squid-like creatures skirt about in the shallow waters darting about with unprecedented speed, driven into a frenzy by the storm.
It is impossible to get a reading on any sort of scanners with the storm raging; electromagnetic interference is significant.
Beacons
A pair of Unity colonization beacons are emitting signals nearby. The interference is too great to determine the content of the electronic beacon or their location but perhaps as the storm passes, the beacon signals can be successfully read.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The High Commune will need to develop our own sustainable sources of food and materials.
The High Commune are experiencing energy shortages. The matter-compilers will fail without additional energy input.
Keepers
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Keeper lander’s scanners are damaged in the initial explosive blasts as the Keepers themselves take a moment to evacuate from the spine. With no scanners, they follow the signal from the ‘Outermost’ lander, using manual piloting for the last hectic minutes to settle their lander in a wide valley tucked into high mountains in the western continent.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is very unstable. Only intermittent communication is possible.
External Scans
A thick fog covers the valley floor and severely limits visibility. Cameras none-the-less catch glimpses of towering snow-covered mountains stained black and red with volcanoes in openings of the fogbanks. More immediately, the valley floor is covered in wide waxey bladed ‘plants’ approximately the height of a man. These spew long ‘thread-like’ filaments that rise high into the clouds.
A thick river streams through the valley, fed by innumerable small rivulets from the snow-covered mountains. Its banks are flanked by larger, tube-like, trees rising 30 to forty meters in height. At their tops, they branch widely with each branch tapering to a long thin filaments that rise into the sky like the strings of kites.
Beacons
The lander’s scanners, despite some damage, are able to pick up the signal from a nearby colonization pod. The pod’s electronic message reveals it to be ‘fusion reactor’ with no further inventory message. The pod is located approximately 40 km to the north-west.
A second pod beacon is also received, though the contents and location are not revealed due to interference.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The Keepers will need to develop their own sustainable sources of food and materials.
Energy brownouts are frequent but manageable.
The Outermost
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Outermost lander makes a rather routine and unexciting landing in the wide caldera of an ancient volcano towering amidst a high mountain range. The volcano is not inactive however, the dark ashy soil steams and smokes ominously under the lander legs.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is stable.
External Scans
The caldera is covered in thick fog crystalline with micro-particles of ice. The ground itself is a mix of glass pebbles, ash, and volcanic soil and scanners reveal it to be significantly warmer than the surrounding air. The edges of the caldera are snow stewn with ash and empty of any local life, plant or otherwise.
Beyond the immediate caldera, the altitude makes the air refined and extremely cold. Oxygen concentrations will be low at this altitude and any explorers are forewarned to bring an independent air supply.
Beacons
The lander’s scanners are able to pick up the signal from two nearby colonization pods.
The first pod’s electronic message reveals it to be ‘fusion reactor’ with no further inventory message. The pod is located approximately 50 km to the south-west.
A second pod beacon is also received, the signal identifying it as ‘terraforming vehicles’. The beacon identifies it as being located over 100 km to the south-east.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The Outermost will need to develop their own sustainable sources of food and materials.
Ultrasurvivalists
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Ultrasurvivalists’
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is intermittent due to interference from an unknown source.
External Scans
Blizzard-like storms swirl around the lander, obscuring visibility significantly.
The area around the lander is a narrow island isthmus covered in thick towering vegetation, tube-like ‘trees’ rising 40-60 meters into the sky and exploding into tendrils and dendrites at their height that in turn sport millions of thin thread-like tendrils that extend further into the sky. The whole of it is covered in a thin layer of heavy water-logged snow.
The seas around the lander team with biological signatures but resolution beyond this is impossible with all the electromagnetic interference. What can be determined is that these seas are criss-crossed with deep underwater volcanic crevasses but are otherwise relatively shallow. There is no solid ice in the seas despite the snow in the sky.
Beacons
A pod beacon is detected emanating from the south-west, distance unknown, inventory unknown due to electromagnetic interference.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The ultasurvivalists will need to live up to their name and develop their own sustainable sources of food and materials (or steal them from somewhere).
The United Order of Zion
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Zion lander arrives at a highland plateau on the inland mountains of the eastern continent. Despite high cloud cover, there is little ground fog like that expected from most potential landing sites.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is mostly stable but prone to intermittent interference from an unknown source.
External Scans
The plateau is a land covered in low succulent-like, waxy, broad-leafed, vegetation trailing long, thin threads into the air.
Slow moving radially symmetrical ‘animals’ that appear like nothing so much as dog-sized armored starfish appear to be slowly grazing on these ‘succulent’-like ‘plants’.
The sky is distant and covered in thin clouds through which blue-white sky and sunlight occasionally peaks.
Oxygen concentrations will be low at this altitude.
Beacons
The lander’s scanners are able to pick up the signal from two nearby colonization pods.
The first pod’s electronic message reveals it to be ‘fusion reactor’ with no further inventory message. The pod is located an unknown distance to the south.
A second pod beacon signal is also received, the signal identifying it as ‘nautical exploration unit’ with subinventories listing several cutters outfitted for exploration and surveillance. The beacon identifies it as being located over 60 km to the north-east.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The faithful will need to develop their own sustainable sources of food and materials.
The Violet Combine
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Violet Combine lander has to navigate through thick cloud and fog banks on instruments alone and as it approaches Planet surface, is soon overwhelmed by strong electromagnetic interference. When the lander crashes through vegetation, carving a wide gouge into the thick ‘jungle’, several aboard are badly hurt and a few do not survive landing.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is almost impossible through the thick electromagnetic interference.
External Scans
External cameras reveal towering jungles of tube-like ‘trees’ draping long ‘vines’ rising high into the fog and clouds. Rain is so thick and heavy that waterfall like rivulets fall from the ‘trees’ and quickly form into streams that race to the east.
Visibility is almost null due to the thick vegetation and rain and lack of sunlight reaching the depths of the ‘jungle’.
Ticking, tapping, and scurrying can be heard on the outside of the lander but due to the damage incurred during the crash landing, the source of this cannot be determined as yet.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The Violet Combine will need to develop their own sustainable sources of food and materials.
Biology and medical labs are up and running and serve to address the needs of the injured but also strain power consumption.
Brownouts (manageable) should be expected for the near future.
Ziętekken Empire
Spoiler :
Arrival
The Ziętekken Empire lander arrives on a peninsula jutting south from the northern reaches of the western continent. The area is a series of crags and crevessaes, cliffs and sharply rising hills. The Ziętekken lander is able to gently set itself down in a canyon between these, its ‘feet’ anchoring it in a muddy river which rises to a depth of 4m on the structure.
The area is thick with fog.
Communication
Communication with orbital communications satellite is very unstable. Only intermittent communication is possible.
External Scans
External cameras reveal ‘vine-like’ ‘plants’ growing from the river edges and covering the cliff-faces. Thin threads extend from the ‘vines’ into the fog. The rivers themselves are home to small bulbous ‘plants’ like a cross between a cantaloupe and a sea anemone. These too extend threads into the river, rippling in the water’s movements.
Small multi-limbed creatures, no bigger than a human hand, swing between the vines of the cliffs. They are five or seven or even eleven-limbed and use long tentacles to make their way amongst the vines. Like the plants they are covered in long hairs and they seem to move these over the vines and in the air as a sort of sensor system.
Beacons
A Unity colonization beacon is emitting a signal nearby. The beacon identifies a pod at ~45 km north with inventory listed as ‘scout rovers’ and a sub-inventory effectively listing four six-wheeled vehicles mounted with sensors and long-distance communication equipment.
A more distant beacon is transmitting intermittently and inconsistently from a location in the southern sea.
Resources
Food and ore stocks are limited. The Ziętekken Empire will need to develop their own sustainable sources of food and materials.
The Ziętekken central quantum computer is notoriously energy-intensive machine and it will need to be taken off-line to maintain life-support for the lander unless another source of energy can be identified quickly.
