Dear AbadarCorp,
Recently, one of your AbadarAmusements Supernova Cruiseliners has violated laws regarding safe Drift distances by 0.5%. While this is an inconsequential amount and only results in a broom closet worth of space loss on any affected plane of existence, that broom closet happened to contain me.
I am of course not seeking recommendation for the Drift jump itself, as only violations of 2.5% are finable. Instead this call has to deal with the inexcusable actions of the Cruiseliner's security once they found me bumping across the outside of their hull. Not only did they try to repeatedly dispel Spider Climb enchantment I was using to cling to the side of their hull, but once they found out I was using an Abadar Emergency Vacuum Suit they attempted to remotely deactivate it while I was still exposed to the vacuum of space.
I am currently within the brig of the cruiseliner, and am likely going to remain here for the foreseeable future as captain is going to extreme lengths to ensure that my case falls under marine time law, up to and including inconvincing his passengers by ferrying back to the planet by shuttle rather than docking at the station.
Thankfully, it is AbadarCorp marine law I am being held under, which means that while I am not allowed to contact a lawer, I am allowed to call AbadarCorp Customer Services with valid complaints. And I do think the security loophole of Abadar Emergency Vacuum Suits having a backdoor for remote deactivation is a very valid complaint.
Please forward your response to my office in the Starfinder Chapter house on Verces. Rest assured they'll get to around to me...soon.
Sincerely,
Starfinder Troubleshooter, Benjamin Mahir
Well I hope these corporate stooges don't hide forum responses from other users.
Ben, we've got Society Lawyers working on a way to get you out of there. Sit tight for extraction. I heard from your team leader, mission was a success, artifact well in hand, and the Stewards want to have a nice long talk with that cruiseliner captain! Stay strong buddy, you'll be out in no time.
And for those of you just tuning in to our little holodrama, I'm Hassan Hussein, Venture Captain for the Starfinder Chapter House on Verces and since these corporate boners decided to capture one of my men, I thought I might as well just unload the whole ugly story to all of these nice people on this public forum!
So apparently AbadarCorp has decided to start mining the Frontier for pre-Gap artifacts so they can discover new technology and exploit it for financial gain. When my team arrived to take legal possession of a archaeological treasure, as per our charter that's recognized by interstellar LAW! A team of paramilitary mercs wearing AbadarCorp insignia tried to shoot it out with one of my teams. Then Ben tried to perform an EVA to save the artifact for extraction, only to have a AbadarCorp Starliner mysteriously warp out of no where and take poor Ben along for the ride.
And when Ben finds himself trapped on the side of the Starliner, these corporate nerds try to cut his oxygen.
Oh and while I'm on the line, when are you mega corp gonna fix my Gods Damned food processor?
