Themes: Intention, obsession, the process of manifesting the Will; they all play out in murders and Spectacular journalism
The campaign begins in September 2144.
Reeling from their experiences in the War Against the Greys, the Ying Yu Tercel Brigade (PCs) has been spoiling for victory against a worthy foe. Khan Marichi Priya-Dade is seizing the opportunity to test both her fledgling warriors and the quickly-forming Company Alliance, using mecha with a strong steampunk influence.
PC: a robot programmed for art-crime-magick
PC: kitty-loving novice nun with two allies (both nuns)
PC: has just started intensively studying either Esperanto or an indigenous language for a month
Any other PC has no restrictions
Allies: Sister Catherina Benincasa, who is highly allergic to cats (although that doesn't prevent her from becoming possessed by an evil Cheshire-like cat who stalks the nun PC)
Allies: Abbess Sister Mariette in Ecstasy, the nun PC's mentor and direct superior, who is sadistic, abusive, and does drugs
FIRST ADVENTURE: Khan Priya-Dade experiments with having her soldiers take the drugs used to propel the SMI²LE Corporation's new noetic drive. While doing so, they see the future of the Sol system -- involving a successful re-invasion by the Greys. They know they have to do something to prepare the human race, celebrating its apparent victory. She (acting through Commander Zdeta) then sends them to a space station where they meet old friends, survivors of the disaster at Moonbase de Léon . . . and a mysterious girl named Odelay who claims to be Khan Priya-Dade's agent from the past. According to her, a noetic drive can be modified to travel through time rather than space.
SECOND ADVENTURE: A princess and a snowman are attending a micro-gee basketball game where the robot PC uses a specially-constructed cheer to steal the game. The nun PC, just after using the restroom at the game, is visited by a beautiful blue businessman who literally steps out of the toilet to tell her that she is miraculously pregnant with the new Messiah/World-Teacher/Maitreya Buddha.
