Please see the transmissions below to know what kind of horrific- er... exciting adventures await your team!

TRANSMISSION ONE: "LUM BERRY WOODS"

 A grove on a desolate planet sat undisturbed for centuries. Now, Flux flowing through its waters have blessed its strange fruit with a heavenly taste that have made them a delicacy being sought for trade.

These dark, shiny, round, softball-sized fruits, known as Lum Berries, are now worth quite the pretty penny, especially since they only seem to come from this singular planet. But the Flux in the water hasn't just caused transformations in the fruit.

The massive tree at the center of the grove has uprooted itself. The Flux has seemed to have brought it to life into an enormous tree spirit, and she's far from friendly.

Lum Berry harvesting has been put on hold until someone can do something about this guardian of the grove. But her power is at its highest when the Lum Berry harvest is full. Your team will need to 'dispose' of as many of these berries as they possibly can to weaken her before engaging.

TRANSMISSION TWO: "RESTAURANT UNDERCOVER"

The White Mare diner has been a reputable establishment that has served highbrow animals from all across the Starlane. Built within its own personal space station, it must pull in a great deal of business to have such an expensive, private area to operate from.

The only issue is that most of its 'patronage' doesn't come from hungry customers. It comes from serving crime syndicates. The chefs and staff of the White Mare have been arrested, and now your team will take over the restaurant, assume disguises, and pretend to be the usual staff handling orders and maintenance.

Three extremely dangerous organizations are planning to hold a meeting within the diner today. Your team needs to find a way to neutralize the threat of them while still leaving enough of them alive to take as captives for interrogation. You'll have a number of items within the restaurant to attempt to do so, such as appetite-enhancement drugs, poisons, and other useful tools. But using them without being caught will be priority number one.

HAZARDS
Forcefeeding, inflation, hypnosis, drug use

TRANSMISSION THREE: "THE FLUX MINES"

Mining planets, despite being some of the most profitable ventures across the Starlane, are usually so desolate and out of the way that they're the last place to receive armed aid when danger strikes.

A massive Flux mine on one such planet has become completely overrun by some sort of Fluxstorm that has somehow been created underground. No one knows how it's happened, but miners are evacuating by the masses and the entire operation is falling into anarchy.

Your team will need to operate as a first strikeforce to get down there, suppress whatever is causing this storm, kill any monsters in your way, and save what's left of this mega-mine.

HAZARDS
Inflation, bursting, lots of violence

TRANSMISSION FOUR: "WAG-SHIN SUITE"

Madame Moo-Dao, the world-famous cosmetics producer and luxury spa owner from the cow homeworld, has invited countless up-and-coming influencers from across the Starlane to enjoy an all-expense-paid luxury stay at her newest creation, the Wag-Shin Suite, said to be the first ever six-star establishment in all the galaxy.

You are all part of this mass-invitation, and you'll be treated to rooms, spas, free meals, free entertainment, and the opportunity to experience beautiful bovine culture hands-on.

However, it doesn't take long to see that something is wrong. Guests are disappearing, and Madame Moo-Dao seems to have other motives behind this place, but no one can quite put their paw on it. It's all you can do to make sure that you and your new friends survive the stay.

HAZARDS
