TARA: HOUSE KASHMERE'S INDUSTRIAL CENTER
Set on a rocky pinnacle in the center of an ancient crater, Cygnus Corp's Ardinium
ore processing plant Number 27 glows a metallic gold in the hazy sunrise. It
is a rare appearance for Tara's star, usually lost behind a curtain of smog and
acidic drizzle. The weary, merely-human workers return to the plant for another
long day of labour amidst the untiring machines built by their superiors, the
superhuman Kashmerians of 69 Cygni. The Cygnans are their masters.
"Slavery
thrives in this corner of the Terran Empire," cry, the horrified liberals in
the Imperial Senate.
"We are elevating them to our level of technology and
culture." retort the Cygnans (who fail to mention their poisoning of he planet).
But
a billion people manage to live on backward Tara, and though it is a closed world,
an amazing number of trade ships manage to slop through Cygnus security to smuggle
their high-tech wares... to fuel rebellion.
A SUBJECT WORLD PLOTS REVOLT!
Included are three adventures, set on an induxtria, but technologically depressed
planet within the province of Kashmere. Each involves intrigue and danger
as agents of the L.I.N. (Kashmere Intelligence Net), battle Regels and assasins
of enemy Houses.
1. The Baron of Cygnus' daughter is trapped in an underwater
mine accident! Was it an accident - or sabotage by angry rebels? She must
be rescued and the truth must be uncovered!
2. A few replicants have survived the Antitelepath Purge of a few months ago.
Are they special agents from House Colos sent to cause terror within the Kashmerian
society, or desperate refugees seeking asylum from their evil creators? K.I.N.
agents must beat the Colosians and capture the replicants alive!
3. The
Conspiracy: Underground Taran leaders have devised a plot to sabotage the
planet's defenses and seize control of the worldwide computer net! If they
suceed, they could paralyze Kahmerian industry and bring the mighty Cygnus
Clan to its knees. Can the K.I.N. thwart them?
