A: A group of space hippy blue whales used the exsurgent virus to engineering a new breed of krill for food.  Extreme radiation from solar flares is used to neutralize the exsurgent virus before feeding.  Firewall is called in to eliminate the research and the whales.

As a side note: I've always wanted to run a game where someone plays an uplifted white whale.

Currently working on specking out Proxy Blue Plate Special.  She Gladys from  A Very Thorough Murder.  Her Simulspace avatar  is a female cafeteria waitress, with five hardened traits (titans, exsurgents, continuity, violence, social engineering).  She has 1 moxie, and the unlucky, immortalty blues, drug addiction (nicotine) negative traits.  In my campaign she is the go to Firewall proxy for the undiscovered since she has seen all the shit.

In honor of Ebola season

My next one shot: "Blood; Covered in Screaming." Titan nanophages have infiltrated a blood-bank medical facility.  All morphs treated with biologics from the facility become infected.  During the next 24-36hrs the nanophages replicate undetected, whereupon the patients undergo a coagulation crisis.  The cellular structure of the morphs become jelly and collapse under stress.  All fluids are contaminated infectious. The PC's have to contain the infection, mitigate loss and probably coverup the Titan presence.

Just finished a Halloween style EP one-shot.  Loosely based on Little Shop of Horrors, the firewall agents had to find out what happened to a missing scum swarm agri-biologist and a martian biomorph designer and their research vessel "The Seymour".  They found a genetic hacking blacksite dedicated to 'growing' people to colonize the exoplanet Solemn.  The issue: the seed stocks for growing biomorphs had been infected with the exsurgent virus and the entire habitat had  become jungle full of giant venus fly traps whose method of reproduction was pod people.  Many fires were started Much sanity was lost.  Also, never let a a real-world chemist play god in a sci-rpg chemistry set.

Just finished the 100th episode special.  I hope Caleb someday plays the paraplegic 12 year old boy who cons the other players into taking damage and dying for him. Brilliant if he can pull it off.
