The Muckraker

“Can I quote you on that?”
Lowdown: Joining an RX team means one thing to you—you are looking for the big story to blow this whole thing wide open. You are a freelance journalist, a nosy soul who loves following leads, asking tough questions, and writing elegant prose. You know the public is hungry for answers. What happened with the Great Blackout? Who was involved? Who is covering up what?
The problem is that you are not that great with a gun, and you would rather not die. And the level of secrecy to these missions will make it difficult to write your groundbreaking exposes without letting folks know what’s up. Is it worth risking your neck to let the others know the truth?

Motivation
Name in Lights: It really is all about you. You don’t have anything against your fellow RX team members, but your goal is to walk away with a huge publishing contract, your name mentioned on every news stream in the galaxy, and the story of the century. Others have tried and failed. Some even disappeared. You know that there are a lot of powerful people that do not want these stories being told.
You don’t care. If your friends get left behind, that may be the price you have to pay. The story is out there—and you are going to get it.
