Your name is Vincent Cruz. You work in a shady government-backed facility in the middle of the New Mexico desert. In a turn of events, you are now a footnote to the Powers That Be. To them, you've actually proven yourself to be useful, thanks to a very lucky break involving one of your anomalies.
After all, you're a researcher for the Abnormality Regulation Coalition (also known as ARC), tasked with containing and studying paranormal entities on their behalf. You've always had a knack with the anomalous, even before you ended up here, ever since that chance encounter with a certain <span class="mu-r">HEART.</span>
You're great at making the worst out of a bad situation, at least. You've got friends, you've got cash, and you've got the attention of ARC. As long as you keep this pace up, you should be just fine!
As for what happened over the last day or so?
You got yourself entangled in a series of mysterious contracts from a masked soldier. You've already completed the first one with little challenge, so hopefully the remaining two will go over smoothly.
You managed to stabilize NOWHERE'S SOMMELIER's condition, without outright 'resolving' her (which might've killed her if it was like IN LIMBO). She's going by Kiera now, and she should be sticking around for a good long while as a new coworker.
You got two brand new anomalies, THE OTHER SIDE and STATIC ANGLERFISH. You've already met STATIC ANGLERFISH before, so you already know a decent amount of his tricks. The other anomaly is going to take a while to figure out, given that even ARC doesn't know what risk level to classify it as.
You had a nice, long talk with Rudolf, which illuminated some interesting details about why you were dragged here. You also learned some fun facts about Harvester anatomy and the politics of both ARC and the SPONSORSHIP COMPANIES.
You've also started a brand new shift. A shift that, thanks to a sponsorship you picked, is a temporal nightmare. This is going to be your longest shift yet, but at the very least, you're going to be able to finish a whole bunch of tasks that you've put on the backburner.
During your shift, some noteworthy things you've done include:
-You learned more about a certain anomaly that's stalking LOST SINCE 199X, which may tie into his future resolution
-You managed to figure out some possible weaknesses of LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE (one of your more annoying anomalies)
-and you manage to hotwire HARD TIMES directly into the facility's power grid, earning you a LOT of favor with various sponsorship companies...and earning you a pretty fat paycheck for the rest of your time down here
As they say, another day, another dollar. No matter what happens, you'll find a way to make it through. You have survived for this long, haven't you?
