Jon-R-SVN-1
Male PLC Happiness Officer
Actual service firm: Stove Rangers
Actual service firm type: BLUE Room Caterers
Mutation: Empathy
Society: Romantics (degree 2)
Secret skills: Cooking 16, Comic Book Trivia 06,
Propaganda (Romantics) 06
Background: You’ve never been sure why, but you’re
more alive than the soulless drones that surround you.
You have more emotion, more passion, in your little
finger than the average INFRARED has in his entire body.
It’s all The Computer’s fault, of course. Back in the old
days, people really knew how to live. Now they just drift
along from day to day, muffled in a haze of boredom and
drugs. But you’re different. Nothing makes you feel alive
like a screaming match or a good cry. Sometimes things
get too calm and peaceful. When that happens, you may
need to shake things up to have something to scream
or cry about.
Unsurprisingly, you’ve been designated this team’s
happiness officer. By The Computer, this will be the
happiest Troubleshooter team ever, even if you have to
scream your throat raw and bawl your eyes out to make
it happen!
SERVICE FIRM INSTRUCTIONS
Your Stove Rangers supervisor tells you, ‘Due to
contamination of the spent bio-organic slurry we use to
fertilize our hydroponics bays, we’re reassigning you to
covertly investigate the food vats at Fun Foods PLC. Keep
your ear to the vents; it could be an unauthorized R&D
experiment or some secret society plot. Your team leader
is R&D, so dig up some dirt on him and blackmail him
for info.’
Later, your new ‘supervisor’ at the food vats tells you,
‘So you think you’re a big shot because you’re a
Troubleshooter, vatslime? Well, you’ll get no special
treatment here. You’re not on a mission, and that means
you’re mine. Scrub that vat!’ You curse under your breath
as he turns away. He’s everything you always hated in a
supervisor, and listening to him brings back unpleasant
memories of your early days as a vat tender for Soylent
Enterprises. You can’t shoot him, more’s the pity, but if
anyone else dares to look down their nose at you for
working in the vats, you’ll gladly take your anger out on
them.
SECRET SOCIETY INSTRUCTIONS
Your contact tells you, ‘R&D geneticists have recreated
an Old Reckoning plant named ‘coca’. It’s the secret
ingredient to the ancient miracle elixir ‘Coca-Cola’. You
must find this plant and bring it back to us.’ He warns
you a Sierra Club agent named ‘Doctor Bot’ is also
looking for the plant. You may need to negotiate, or even
kill, to get the plant. Trust no one! May the Force be—er,
that is, keep your laser handy!

Yes, you can change the name, which might be a good idea since we have a Johnny on the team already. Also, feel free to introduce your PC any time. We'll just assume he's been with the troubleshooter team all along, but has been pretty quiet so far.
Heh, yea thats the whole reason that i picked that pic
