005 : MISSIONS |
❖ Just make sure you don't die The work of an Agent is to complete Missions, tasks assigned by the MI6 that can range from being something that anyone could do, like go get office supplies for HQ, to something dangerous, like neutralizing nukes or saving the Queen of England. Agents get paid for doing Missions. If they don't do Missions, they run the risk of getting fired, because really... that's just slacking off. When you accept a Mission, the Quartermaster or an underling of his will equip you with three items essential to your Mission. If it's to deliver a message, you'll probably get the sealed envelope with the message, a gun, and an orange. You will always be given a radio transmitter for communication from the Quartermaster or a fellow Agent. You get paid for doing Missions. Save that money, buy yourself your own weapons, anything. The Department is low on budget and it's welcomed if you buy your own weapons, which you can purchase from the latest Research (probably the safest route to go if you don't mind peanut or potato guns), or from a local Weapons dealer (which can be sketchy) The Offices at MI6 is where you will accept your Missions. Some Missions will require you to have a team, which you can assemble. You may require a partner, which may or may not be assigned to you, depending on who you make a contract with. Sometimes, your mission will require searching London for the object or information, or to talk to the right people. Once roleplaying, you may or may not encounter an NPC or two along the way. Do be careful with what you chose. Some Missions will open up new threads when you have discovered a new, "hidden" area *coughmaybethesewersystemsofLondoncough*. Some Missions may be available only after you complete a prior Mission (like investigations). It all depends. A Mission will look something like this on the board: {AW} Pubs of London You are being asked to investigate several pubs of London and gather info from each. Requirements: Be able to hold down your alcohol. Location: The Pubs around London Reward: Intelligence, £50 Status: Open If you give up a Mission, you will have failed the Mission and your rep goes down, you coward! ❖ Tasks for the normal Similarly, you'll find a Civilian version of Missions... Tasks. They'll be posted in various public places, such as Guildhall, Imperial College London, South London Theatre, and the various pubs. You can take Tasks off the board. They look something like this. {AW} Library Work Requested! Help shelve books at the Imperial College London, we're understaffed! Requirements: Be able to climb a step ladder and hold books. Location: Exhibition Road ; Imperial College London Employer: Felicity Mersey, Head Librarian Reward: Two Books, £25 Status: Open If you're at the Scotland Yard, you talk to the receptionist and she'll give you the task. If you're just out and about and get a task from the board at the Imperial College London, go to the location listed on the task. Then do the task. |
