The Perfect Stranger.

Donovan Johnson who is a Sergeant Major from the The Third Imperium of Man have tasked the party to Find, retrieve and bring back the lost ship that is called “Perfect Stranger”. Tensions in the Islands Subsector have increased drastically ever since they discovered jump technology. There is an almost oppressive feeling of all out war being close to breaking out. This is the last thing 'The Third Imperium of Man' wants to happen. This would cripple communications. The Islands Cluster is important because it is one of the main crossing points of the great rifts. The Perfect Stranger was crewed by Imperial Navy and Scout Service personell with a couple of representatives of the major merchant lines and an intelligence expert. Their mission was: To observe the islands from the inside, as it were. Perfect Stranger would ply the trade lanes within the islands, sending raw data and any conclusions back when she contacted an Imperial Representative. Something went wrong. A few months ago, two members of the crew arrived back in Imperial Space. There was one issue, they were dead, apparently because of wounds inflicted by a laser weapon. The bodies were shipped in cryogenic units aboard a vessel transiting from one side of the Great Rift to the other, and were accompanied by no personal effects. Documentation sent with the bodies simply names the crewmembers, and states they were shipped from Amondiage. What happened to Perfect Stranger and her crew is unclear. Apparently, they got as far as Amondiage and met some mishap. Your mission is to retrieve the ship and bring it to the Imperial representative at Zuflucht, whereupon the intelligence data from its data cores will be sent on, and the ship returned to service in the islands on a new crew mission. Discovering the fate of the crew and rendering assistance is a secondary goal and must not be permitted to compromise the primary objective. You have been given relevant paperwork to take possession of the ship by an Imperial representative, a member of the Imperium's intelligence community. Once again, to specify: Your mission is to take possession of Perfect Stranger (her last known location is Amondiage Starport) and bring her to Zuflucht with her data storage intact. If necessary, the ship may be considered expendable, so long as the data is delivered. Upon delivery, you will each receive a payment of 250,000 credits. This is a success-only contract. You have each been given passcodes for the Perfect Stranger that can be uploaded into any computer, along with 10,000 credits assigned for expenses, to be spent as you see fit. Each of you have also a credit amount of 10,000 per month, arranged with the government of Amondiage, expected to be spent on necessities for the mission - THIS ACCOUNT IS MONITORED AND MAY BE WITHDRAWN IF PURCHASES THAT ARE CLEARLY NON-MISSION RELATED ARE CONSISTENTLY MADE.
