Earlier this month I was asked to give a talk on using AI apps in teaching, learning and assessment in education. Even AI helped. It could have been an AGI but I'd never know until it was too late.

Anyway, thanks for the opportunity, team.

S01E02 "Taken" Stardate: 58457.42 Capt Greg Eliso

S01E02 "Taken"
Stardate: 58457.42

Capt Greg Elison of the USS Östergötland tries to determine if it was the new XO Cmdr Sally Elison who was shot out of the aft torpedo tube by unknown agents.

Lt Cmdr Tosk on the shuttle Vänern scans the ocean for the torpedo/lifepod presumably with Sally inside. He detects a sinking tritanium tube in the sea.

Cmdr Morpheus Drake & Chief Duc Tran sweep the torpedo bay & find a tampered panel. They determine that the saboteur is Andorian engineer Specialist Talas zh'Azollarh. Drake & Security Chief Lt Libby dos Santos apprehend her successfully.

The tube is transported to Cargo Bay 1. Transporter Chief Zree Tepelo finds it empty but for an oxygen mask & an intravenous drip of tranquiliser.

Aboard the Vänern, Tosk detects a submarine wake pattern allowing him to extrapolate ship vector & where it will surface. Knowing this, Capt Elison orders the ship to take off & follow the shuttle. After Tosk beams to the bridge, a cloaked ship bursts out of the sea into the air. Elison immediately pegs it as Romulan.

At the brig, Specialist Talas is broken by Lt dos Santos interrogation & commits suicide by pill. Drake is unable to stop it.

Tosk is able to scan through the Romulan cloak. Elison orders Drake & a security to beam aboard the Romulan bridge. Drake's team surprises the Romulans thanks to Tosk's scans & scares them enough for them to stand down, come to all stop & drop the cloak.

Tosk detects a non-Romulan biosignature & transports them to Sickbay. Dr. Saladin Chau visually confirms the unconscious human to be Sally Elison.

As two other Starfleet ships arrive to escort them to a secure orbital drydock, the Romulan crew are transported to the brig. Breaking the ship's databanks, Capt Elison finds that the Romulan ship was sent from Pedrocal VII across the Neutral Zone.

Then, a worried Dr. Chau calls them all. In Sickbay, he tells them that "Sally Elison" is a disguised Romulan!

S02E05 "Gravity of the Situation" Stardate 57995.9

S02E05 "Gravity of the Situation"
Stardate 57995.9 Orbiting the planet Khotan, the Saber class USS Sienkiewicz NCC-88034 watches an asteroid strike shockwave envelops the Khotan Colony. Just as shields are raised.

Shuttle Sinclair & runabouts Moonstar & da Costa should hold all evacuees trapped in the shielded city. At the Admin Tower, Dr. Vivian Oyunchmeg tells the Away Team led by XO Cmdr Tamat that they can save the planet by using the gravitronium crystals samples in the lab.

This tech could save billions of lives.

Lt Bentley & Cpl Jackson Okwaho return to the landing site to help with the evacuees. Cmdr Targishrak Laghen an Edosian science officer joins Tamat, Cmdr Barclay & Dr Crane.

With Dr Vivaldi helping to study data, Laghen believes they could move the planet. Tamat finds that they could use the samples to boost the shuttles' shield & punch through the atmosphere to orbit.

When Crane reminds them that Okwaho was stunned to prevent activating the city shields, Dr Oyunchimeg tells them she received anonymous messages warning about gravitronium research.

Vivaldi leads everyone to the labs while Laghen & Oyunchimeg continues studying. At the lab, after Tamat fabricates 3 containment pods for the samples, they see Vivaldi activating the sample self destruct. There is a skirmish, but Barclay & Crane restrains Vivaldi while Tamat shuts off self destruct.

Laghen discovers they CAN move the planet using the colonists' gear but alas time was running out. Laghen & Oyunchimeg relent. More asteroids were striking ground. They head for the landing field, install the pods to the ships to create subspace forcefields. Then Barclay leads the shuttle convoy out of the city shields blasting a wide tunnel through the storm.

They are picked up in orbit by the Sienkiewicz. They all view Khotan being engulfed by the accretion disc. Because of their depth in the gravity well, they all experienced time dilation of 3 months!

S01E01 "Deep End of the Pool"

Stardate: 58457.38 The USS Östergötland is being launched. Aboard are Capt Greg Elison, Conn Officer Cmrd Morpheus Drake and Ops Officer Lt Cmdr Tosk the Studious.

They fly to Station Alpha, New Atlantis Project to pick up new crew, Drake plunged the ship into the sea and activated her cat drive to avoid a hurricane. They surface & dock at water level, beside Station Alpha.

As new crew begin to file in, Lt. Garcia at the bridge engineering station reported that the quartermaster Chief Tran down below counted 61 torpedoes transferred aboard the ship - 1 extra.

When it's reported the port cat drive forcefield is damaged Capt Elison orders Tosk to investigate.

Cmdr Drake alerts the Capt that new XO is Cmdr Sally Elison. Elison is surprised that his half-sister has been assigned to this ship.

New Chief Engineer Lt. Sevok is briefed of the FOD shield damage. Tosk has identified that the damage was caused by focused microwave. With Sevok's aid, they find that it came from a maser made by either the Klingons or the Romulans, and from where it was fired.

Meanwhile, the XO has not reported in for duty & the ship's sensor locates Sally Elison in her quarters. Capt Elison breaks into her empty room. Her commbadge is on the floor. Elison instructs Drake to seal the ship.

Tosk & a security team take shuttle Vänern to the rocky promontory on the island 5 km from Station Alpha from where the maser was fired but there is no sign of anyone. Cloaked Romulans, mused Elison on comms.

Drake finds a sensor record of a transport beam from the XO's room to the rear torpedo bay. Elison orders Chief Tran to meet Drake there. Tran tells him there is now 60 torpedos when re-counted by hand. Drake is sure something was shot out of the aft torpedo tube very recently. The 61st torpedo? How was this done without alerting security?

Tosk coordinates a search from the Vänern with the cetacean security team to look for whatever that abducted Cmdr Sally Elison.

S02E04 "Black Hole Sun"
Stardate: 57995.5. The Saber class USS Sienkiewicz NCC-88034 is sent to the planet Khotan now in a destabilised orbit & is now spiralling towards its primary: a black hole.

While other starships have evacuated thousands from Federation colony there, the Sienkeiwicz must evacuate the remaining administrators, scientists & engineers.

XO Lt. Cmdr Kodar Tamat, Dr. Thomas Crane & Lt. Mason Bentley are sent by Captain Toor to meet with Dr. Oyunchimeg at the colony. En route, the shuttle Sinclair almost smashes into a huge zero-albedo asteroid, but Bentley & En Isabelle Brunet evaded it magnificently.

They set down on the landing field where Lt. Leahmann Barclay is helping to evacuate engineers into the runabout da Costa. For a moment, Barclay loses his temper & causes an evacuee stampede.

At the same time a huge asteroid streaks across the grey sky & impacted over the horizon. The sky turns red. Ensign Sparik at the da Costa hatch yelled that the shockwave's ETA is 5 minutes. An evacuating engineer tells them the city shields are unmanned in the admin building basement.

Tamat, Crane, Bentley & Barclay rush to the basement. While Tamat is unable to break the shield controls' biometric lock, Crane found a security officer unconscious behind another console. They use his palm to unlock the shield controls & activate the forcefield dome with 90 seconds to spare.

When the shockwave hit, everything shakes violently for 30 seconds.

Crane wakes the officer up with a hypospray. Cpl. Jackson Okwaho said he was attacked from behind by an unknown person when entered the room. Tamat asks for weapons just in case. Okwaho provides them each with a type-2 phaser.

Barclay takes them all up the tower to the admin office where Dr. Oyunchimeg and 4 other city councillors are waiting. They do not wish to evacuate. They have discovered an exotic matter dubbed "gravitronium" that they believe can help restore the planet's orbit! and save the colony...

S01E05 "HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD"

#bladerunnerrpg #bladerunner #bladerunner2049 #replicant

ELECTRIC DREAMS SPOILERS.

17th May 2037. Late morning.

Hollywood Hills, cloudy. Novak & Fenna is en route towards Bakker there. Spinners parked, they hide behind the Mt. Lee transmitter tower. 6-8 people walking up Mt Lee Drive, a child is with them. Fenna walks 30 meters away to them to ID Leah & Sarah. Novak preps to shoot Leah while Bakker covers Fenna approach.

Although she mentions not seeing Fenna on the bus, with Fenna's lies Leah suspects nothing.

Novak tries to sneak closer, but fails (at Stealth with a push). Bakker, in full riot gear, runs into some garbage cans. A spotter yells, "The cops are here!"

Leah puts a bullet in Novak who drops & aims. Fenna takes cover with Leah to enforce her lie. Other Replicants join the fray attacking Bakker. She gets stabbed through her armour & is dead. They start looting her body for weapons.

Three running at Novak gets autofired, hits his shoulder and is knocked back. Novak fends off the other two with his rifle successfully.

Fenna puts a surprise bullet through Leah, smashing her fingers. Sarah screams. Enraged, she turns on Fenna.

Novak's switches to his PKD but misses. The Reps slashes at his arm. He tries to retreat, but a slug to the head downs him. They loot Novak.

Somehow Fenna's undershirt armor takes the brunt of Leah's shot. Twice! But she suddenly goes in a frenzy, gouges her own eye out, and collapses. Leah is surprised, and aims her blaster at Fenna's head.

Suddenly an orbital shuttle appears from the clouds and lands on the field behind the Hollywood sign. Leah stands down. The last thing Fenna sees as she collapses unconscious is Leah running off with Sarah Tyrrell in hand and and disappear into space.

THE END...?

SPOILERS FOR STARTER SET ADVENTURE

#bladerunnerrpg #bladerunner #bladerunner2049 #replicant

Replicant Blade Runner Fenna returns to her apartment to rest.

Novak decides to climb up the stairwell to investigate Leah's apartment. Neighbours say the skin job has no friends. Novak gets a custodian to open her door. Novak finds a William Blake poetry collection book. By Leah's bedside is a little girl's photo, & at the back: DOC BADGER is written.

Bakker, staking out the abandoned safehouse building, sees the Aurelian arrive. She follows the blind man into the empty building & he disappears into an apartment.

Novak arrives at the safehouse. While mulling over things, the Aurelian invites them in. He tells them that Leah should have been waiting here. When pushed, he mentions arranging an offworld shuttle to come for Leah behind the Hollywood sign nearby. Soon after, a well-rested Fenna arrives.

While Bakker retreats to rest & Fenna waits at the safehouse, Novak meets with Doc Badger. The doc says that he printed out the girl's photofrom Leah's memories.

After a call to Wallace Corp, Novak learns that one Lilith Tyrell sculpted Leah's memories.

Bakker returns at the safehouse at dawn.

Then LAPD informs them that Leah has been to Lilith Memory Labs to kill Lilith & abduct her daughter Sarah. There, a wounded Replicant Terry confirms that Sarah resembles the girl in Leah's memory pic. Terry heard Leah whisper to Sarah if she has been to the Hollywood sign?

There is footage of Leah & Sarah entering a ground car.

While Bakker diverts to stake out the Hollywood sign, Fenna arrives at the lab & cracks Lilith's computer. She unlocks a hologram of a traumatic false memory of a violent attack and a dead daughter. This has caused Leah to snap. She now thinks the real Sarah is her own daughter.

The trio converge at the Hollywood sign to rescue Sarah...

Fenna, Bakker and Novak head into Animoid Row look

Fenna, Bakker and Novak head into Animoid Row looking for Aurelian. While eating at a Indomie ramen stall discussing Replicants in society, 3 black-clad men alight from a black spinner in the street & started shooting at us.

We take cover behind the ramen bar. Their initial shots miss. Novak returns fire as Bakker calls for backup successfully overcoming jamming. Fenna tries to sneak around to flank them.

Novak's second shot shatters an attacker's hand. Avoiding another's fire, Bakker hits another. Fenna sneaks behind one and her sonic round breaks his leg. The ones Novak & Fenna shot turns, despite their smashed hand and broken leg, puts bullets through Fenna. Novak's fire then drops Mr Smashed Hand.

The hovering black spinner fires a tactical missile, misses, hits the turtle shop behind. Poor animoid ninjas. Novak switches to a shot gun and takes a chunk off the spinner. Third guy starts running. Bakker's bullet takes his ear off. Fenna bull rushes him & takes him down.

Damaged spinner looses another missile and hits Fenna & her captive, killing him. Fenna is down, bleeding. Spinner flees as LAPD vehicles arrive. Bakker gives medical aid to Fenna. Medics take over and soon she's back on her feet. She quickly requisitions an undershirt armour from the cops while we each take the gunmen's rifles. Novak confirms the attackers were Nexus-9 Replicants.

Then, we all head to Aurelian's shop. Bakker waits outside. Inside is a blind old man fixing some animoid butterflies. They introduce ourselves & ask about Leah. He gives Novak the runaround. Fenna, sensing he's hiding something, tells her she's a Nexus-9. He admits that he sent Leah to a safehouse & gives her the address.

The Blade Runners return to the shot up ramen bar. While Bakker alone is having prawn ramen, the trio consider who just tried to kill them and why. How will Wallace Corp react to a killer Nexus-9 on the loose? Why DID Leah run?
