Special Request- In The Web Of Corruption -v2.4...

The VPA is the new major antagonist in v2.4. They control the flow of goods, data, and people. Their strength is Legitimacy—they hide behind city charters and environmental permits. Your “Special Request” often involves forging these permits or, conversely, exposing a secret shipping container bound for the city’s orphanages.

Formerly a footnote in v1.0, the Princes are now a full romance/betrayal arc. Their leader, “Mother Maelstrom,” issues the titular Special Request: Find my son in the city’s foster system, and I will give you the master key to every bribe in Veridian Bay. This is the emotional core of v2.4. Do you rescue a child from a corrupt system, knowing he will be groomed as the next crime lord? Or do you lie to a mother whose grief has weaponized an entire city? Special Request- In the Web of Corruption -v2.4...
