A Simple Insurance Investigation (referee background)

The players missed on an a classic mercenary contract offered by Bio-Gen Inc., however this contract would have been less money (as low as 20 credits/day for a projectile sharpshooter) although it provided for more money for equipment and military hardware. Sucessful PER checks with NPCs while stocking up on supplies with the credit advance can reveal this.

The PCs can obtain the Stats on the Hepplewhite Dream from CDC if they ask:

To obtain a crew and cargo manifest they will need to consult with Hepplewhite Cargo LLC. The company is currently being held together by a human secretary who tells everyone to call her Auntie Mae and somehow everyone wants to do just that. She's frantic to learn the fate of the Hepplewhite crew as the company is small and all employees are family.

Crew:
Pilot: Hanson White
Astrogator: Carsic Hepple 
Purser: Gallen Hepple
Engineer: Diebra Sensa

Passenger: Rinny Sensa

Cargo Manifest
28 cannisters of samples from Bio-gen destined for Bio-gen headquarters Gran Quivera, Prengular. 

Rumor Table
If PCs do any inquiring around they can each learn one rumor: roll on table.
