You are Captain SAMANTHA WELLINGS, a newly minted captain of the Centauri Accord!
"Oh... oh my." Natalia's eyes widen as she reads over the manifest that your client has sent over, as thanks for securing a sample of the alien crop they wanted so badly. "You certainly weren't kidding when they said they would compensate us handsomely for our troubles."
"I know, right?" You grin. "So, you're the doctor. What do you think will help us the most?'
"Hmmm, well... they're ALL so tempting..." Natalia beams. "But... I've narrowed it down to three choices. I'll leave the final discretion to you, Captain."
She then hands the datapad back to you and you can see the selections that she's highlighted.

EXOTIC MATERIAL STORAGE: A specialized module for the medlab that adds a highly secure vault for the storage of highly volatile, infectious, or otherwise dangerous exotic materials. The ability to safely store exotic materials may allow the construction of special upgrades or gear in the future.
STIMPACK: With the addition of a special license, the ship's onboard medical dispenser can now manufacture highly regulated stimulants for general use. Stimpacks can be integrated into existing Accord power armor for boosted but temporary performance. Side effects may vary.
BIOWARFARE SUITE: A specialized addition to the existing medical dispenser will allow it to manufacture a wide range of biological and chemical toxins for use in combat, both on a personal level and in ship to ship engagements.

The biowarfare suite sounds tempting, but the ability to commit warcrimes often has huge disadvantages in the long run since it invites disproportionate retribution and encourages abandonment by superiors in case said retribution occurs.

From the last few field missions, I just have to ask:
What the hell did they teach Sam at the Academy and how'd she score?
Easton Powell

Christian Jones
>Sam had crappy scores in the beginning, and turned things around after Carly disappeared.
Jack Scott
They taught her everything needed to be a space captain.
And it was mentioned she scored good, considering she's a captain at her age.

"Hmmmm, the Exotic Material Storage looks to be a good investment." You say, making your choice. "Who knows what interesting shit we'll find out there i the unknown."
"Indeed." Natalia puts her hands to her cheeks. "Just think of all of the undiscovered toxins and poisons and microbes waiting to be found and weaponized! The possibilities are endless!"
"Yeah..." You narrow your eyes suspiciously at your easily excited doctor. "It can be used to hold OTHER things too, like rare minerals or volatile substances or corrosive organic matter."
"Even better!" Natalia giggles.
Jeez...

You head down to the Engineering section, where your chief engineer Scott should be. You just realized that you haven't actually seen him in quite a while. Probably too distracted by his most current project.
That kind of gives you a devious idea. Maybe you can go in and try to see what little project he's been working so aggressively on?

Isaiah Russell
Unfortunately, before you can even start, you bump head first into one of Scott's sentry bots, its blank head staring down at you. Yeah, you probably should have figured Scott would have had security of some kind posted here.
"DO YOU REQUIRE ASSISTANCE, CAPTAIN?{ The sentry bot queries you.
Oh, right, you're the goddamn captain of this ship. Of course the bots would be subservient to you!
"Take me to Scott!" You instruct it.
"AFFIRMATIVE." The sentry bot gives a programmed but respectful salute, spins around, and marches down the hall. You follow it closely as it leads you into Scott's workshop. A security scanner beeps, and detecting the bot, immediately unlocks the door and it slides open...
...to show Scott working on a partially complete robot which seemed to have a very thin and lithe frame...
"C-captain!?" Scott nearly leaps high enough to hit his head on the ceiling when he turns to see who's entering.
But your eyes are still drawn to his project.

Logan Morgan
"Oh come on, Scott!" You roll your eyes. "We've got like, at least four eligible women on the crew!"
"W-what?" Scott blinks before taking a step back. "N-no! It's nothing like that!"
"Uh huh, so what else could you possibly be building a robot with a feminine frame for?" You point out.
"There's perfectly practical reasons for it!" Scott tries to explain, his brow sweating furiously now. "I mean, they can fit in tighter spaces than full size combat bots, and would make more difficult targets to hit..."
"You can just make the existing robots a bit smaller. Basically just scale them down." You counter.
"And... and... there's possible infiltration applications!" Scott continues, still horribly nervous.
