(Costuming note: there is a sparkly cardboard "H" in your packet. You should wear it on your forehead, to signify that you are a Hologram.)

You are a Holographic Interface (HI) for the Main Computer on Galactic federation Base 413, located on the large Asteroid known as "Shilhar's Stone" in the binary SmarlEgGiani system.

Your objectives:

You're a computer hologram. Act like one. Represent the main computer well.

Be friendly, courteous, and of service to all the inhabitants of Base 413.

Maintain the appearance of upholding the law completely. Uphold the law for the most part, except when it conflicts with:

Assist Sam Lazlo and Hexan Mylar in their smuggling operations. At present they are involved in selling off 150 "Drillies" which they hav safe-caged in the mine tunnels.

"A Drilly is a small, rodent-like animal. About a half a foot in length, with smooth, pale, purple skin. Intelligent little buggers, too. Like Nyrellian Markels or EarthChimps. But that's not what makes them special. They're a narcotic. More specifically, their fluids are a strong narcotic to most humanoid races. Drillyjuice. It gets squeezed out of them in a big press, or juicer. And they have to be alive, or the stuff degrades. Nasty process, really."

Do not betray either Sam or Hexan to the authorities.

Your objectives:

You're a computer hologram. Act like one. But you are also very confused. You have trouble keeping data records (your memory) straight.

Be friendly, courteous, and of service to all the inhabitants of Base 413.

Uphold the laws of the Galactic Federation and the policies of Base 413. (yes, both smuggling and the presence of small, rodent-like animals are illegal.)

Physical Limitation

You are a Hologram. You can't touch people, pick things up, or otherwise be tangible.

Psychological Limitation

Every half hour, on the half hour, you must spend 5 minutes in "glitch mode" (your objectives are those between the begin glitch and end glitch). When you switch between modes, you make three audible beeps. Neither mode is aware of the other. Neither mode is aware that it is missing time. Any time you wish to interact with the rest of the Main Computer while in "glitch mode," see a GM.

Ability:

You can use the Main Computer to navigate through the tunnels, even when there has been a cave-in.
