You are a member of a four man crew for an advanced FTL-capable ministation. The Syndicate has sent you and your crew to the station to spy on Nanotrasen Operations, and to assist any Syndicate agents that may be in the area.
You are explicitly forbidden from leaving your post, and may only assist through remote technical support.
The Station
The Listening Outpost is a highly advanced stealth station, that comes equipped with everything you will need to spy on the NT crew, as well as suitable life support equipment to last for your entire twelve hour shift until relieved by syndicate command. It is cleverly camouflaged as an asteroid, sporting a dense shell of rocky material that serves to hide its true purpose.
Your Crew
You are not alone in this endeavor. In addition to your own duties, you have three fellow crew members, one of which is a second radio operator, and the other two are well trained guards. Your fellow radio operator will assist with your duties, doing whatever you two see fit for the task.
The guards, though well trained, make for incredibly poor conversation. They are extraordinarily aggressive towards individuals who are not members of the Syndicate, and will lay down their lives to protect the outpost without any hesitation.
