Good Cause Simulator: pep!rom!Revolution (sunday)

[idolpro]

[ You’re in a sleek room full of all kinds of sci-fi dials and knobs. You feel like you’ve been here a long time with these people around you, and that you have a lot longer to go before this is all over.

You can hear the distant sounds of the station creaking due to shockwaves from the fighting outside. What is going on in this galaxy? Well, it’s not very important to you. What’s important is surviving.

You have a job to do. ]

In hopes of getting a job change and a boost in stats, they are going to focus on studying medicine to provide aid to those injured and hurt at a moderate cost. Not extortion, but it isn't charity work, either. There's space insurance, right? Also, they will provide education on how to treat people at a fee. It's a school where you can learn a really important skill!

Re: ALLOCATE POINTS

[time5kip]

We are allocating points in Prosperity (SEE ABOVE I THINK, UNLESS i MISUNDERSTOOD)

We will pay taxes
We will use our job ability.

We will also check out the water and use the mining laser to break through

EVENT 1

[idolpro]

[Species name] space isn't exactly the best place to live. There's a moderate number of [species name] here, but some of them are talking about moving to a different station, where conditions are better. If Prosperity is not over 65 points by the end of the year this event occurs in, Population will drop by 20 points.

EVENT 2

[idolpro]

While working in the mines, you hear the sound of rushing water on the other side of one of the cavern walls. It seems distant. Do you attempt to use the mining laser to break through?

EVENT 1

[idolpro]

You suffer a catastrophic bout of the ol' Event 1 Year 1 Failure! -20 population.

EVENT 2

[idolpro]

The general lack of proper clothing and shelter leads to damage from exposure to the elements. There is an epidemic of SPACEBITE in cat fairy space, including amongst your entire family.

You have all gained SPACEBITE. It’s frostbite...but in space!

EVENT 3

[idolpro]

A mysterious ship has docked at your station today. They call themselves the Hand, but what are they the hand of? The RULER%TITLE’s right hand? The hand of DEITY%NAME? The invisible hand of the ECONOMIC%SYSTEM?

All you know is that things seem to have become colder and darker around the station since they arrived. And news reports throughout [insert species] space indicate that there’s started to be reports...of missing hands. Entire hands, just removed! Without a single trace.

Do you begin the work of removing these Hands, whatever they might be? Or do you let them stay? Do you, perhaps, engage in their handcraft?

EVENT 1

[idolpro]

Hands begin to disappear. Countless cat fairies turn up handless day after day after day, and it seems that every day the Hands grow in strength and number, too...something should maybe be done about this...?

You can hear the groaning of the ancient spirits in the empty halls of the station, and even in the void of space. An entire planet of the tortured handless...

Perhaps the Hands are onto something, here? Maybe you should...join them?

EVENT 2

[idolpro]

The war against The Others rages around you - you're not sure why it started or how, only that one of your species' planets was completely wiped out, with no provocation. You can't help but feel you need to do something about this...but what?

Do you take action, or realize that there's not much you can do to affect things besides your job?

EVENT 3

[idolpro]

As a result of your lack of maintenance, your station has ended up in a state of disrepair. It should be no surprise that when gravity season begins, the stress to the paneling causes the station to slowly start to come apart.

This could be a deadly disaster if left alone...but what can you do about it?

FINAL STATS

[idolpro]

Population: 45
Prosperity: 80%
Sustainability: 70%
Readiness: 95%

!!: You are raided by pirates! -10 Sustainability!

ENDGAME

[cascadingfailure]

You maintain neutrality and peace, even in the face of adversity. Your advances in medicine save the galaxy much pain and suffering, after seeing you first pull back from the brink of collapse.

Hands haunt your dreams, but as the war dies down you find even those malign spirits quiet.

Well done. You stayed resolute, and it was all for a good cause.

Proceed to ENDGAME.
