Space travelers discover a killer in their midst…<\/div>\n

Backstory<\/h4>\n

The Nir Cantina<\/b> on Federal Station Nine in the Axilon Nebula attracts a diverse crowd of space travelers, including mercenaries, traders, diplomats, scientists, and smugglers. While most of these folks want nothing more than to have a quick drink and a meal on their way from one end of the galaxy to the other, at least one of them has a more sinister purpose<\/b> in mind. It will take the guests and employees of the Nir Cantina all of their wits and skills to piece together the confounding clues and determine the identity of the killer<\/b> in their midst!<\/p>\n

A Patron Goes Missing<\/h4>\n

This mystery is divided into two primary segments.<\/b> During the first portion of the evening, Act One<\/b>, the guests will arrive at the Nir Cantina and have a chance to eat, drink, and mingle with one another. Each of the guests has certain personal goals (unrelated to the overall mystery) that they are attempting to achieve, and Act One gives them an opportunity to meet these goals<\/b>. During the course of the evening, there are minor intermittent power failures<\/b> that plunge the Cantina into darkness. These blackouts are probably the result of minor asteroid impacts; the Cantina owner assures everyone that there is no cause for alarm.<\/p>\n

Murder!<\/h4>\n

Act Two<\/b> will commence with the discovery of one of the guests, dead in the Cantina’s bathroom. The victim’s throat has been cut and cauterized, probably by a laser sword or knife; there is no blood. Near the victim is a small bag containing trace amounts of Stress, an illegal, highly addictive stimulant. It looks as though the person was killed for his drugs.<\/p>\n

Justice and Profit<\/h4>\n

Nir Deware responds to this discovery by sealing the Cantina’s airlocks<\/b> and informing the guests that there is a Fed-Terra Peacekeeping Envoy scheduled to dock at Outpost Nine in a few hours and that the best course of action will be to simply wait for them to show up and sort things out. However, when one of the other guests points out that there is a substantial bounty<\/b> being offered for bringing in confirmed murderers, everyone’s mind turns to profit; if the killer can be identified before the arrival of the Envoy, the guests can claim the bounty for themselves!<\/p>\n

Solving the Mystery<\/h4>\n

The rest of the evening<\/b> is then devoted to locating clues, piecing together evidence, and trying to figure out who killed the victim.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
