[ DIFFICULTY LEVEL ] gaia_star gaia_star gaia_star

[ TASK ]
As one of the engineers it is your job to help apply the work of the metalworkers into new technology and develop products to better observer humanity and reap their data. This is where the hardware side of development goes on, though some software is tested at this level.

[ MECHANICS ]
Roll 1d6 twice, each roll is half the day.

  1. - You set up a complex motherboard array, newly developed peripheral, hardware or something else in development and yet when it is plugged in, for no discernible reason you can figure out it shorts out and goes on fire.
  2. - You come up with a more efficient way of drawing heat away from hot machinery in a flat plane, if you have already rolled this, you simply develop this further.
  3. - Somehow you accidentally stumble upon a means of pulling data from a data line without being easily detectible
  4. - You help to develop the ability to make everything smaller, phones, cables and spying devices.
  5. - You spend all of your shift trying to figure out the problems with a complex circuit and even with the help of your supervisors, no process is made at all.
  6. - You work hard all day and get your break extended by Tyr who is very pleased with the whole department's hard work.

Deciding to try a much less physical job, Tessa focused on helping with the tech bugs again, nestling down in a corner in a beanbag chair and focusing on making things smaller.

Phones, bugs, recorders, music players... anything that she got her hands on, she made smaller, and much more effective. Bigger wasn't always better, she found, and smaller things meant that they could get into more places and be seen less, and gather more information -- which they needed.

Tessa stretched after a moment, her pile of small things adding up beside her -- so far, she'd worked on in a timely manner on an assortment of tiny bugs, tiny phones, tiny watches, tiny voice recorders, tiny keyboards, tiny book readers, tiny batteries...

It was probably time for lunch.

The Famine Horseman moved to the break room to find something to eat.

When she came back, she was put on a different task, a little disappointed that she wasn't able to keep working on the tiny things.

Her new job was to now set up a motherboard array, and she spent a good long while staring at the wires and the places they went much like it was a puzzle, grimacing at the complexity of it all.

Deciding to plug it in, she watched as it shorted out and set itself on fire. She hadn't even touched the damn thing! Was it her job to figure out what was wrong?!

Pushing herself back from the chair, Tessa shook her head, deciding that enough was enough.

At least she'd made some progress for the workload for the company today.
