Tora Mutiny
Definition
Editor's term for the
mutiny which arose from
Sanderson's Survey Team
as the Moon approached Tora.
|
Details
- The whole team, at some point before Tora,
became enamored by a delusional belief in seances,
which they sometimes (always?) term "astral predictions."
- Upon approach to Tora, they started believing,
perhaps independent of the seances initially,
that Tora held an inhabitable planet.
- This belief led them to assaults and more seances
whose conclusions were completely wrong,
but fed into (and/or were fed by) their leader's
(Sanderson's) paranoia regarding the command structure
and especially Commander Koenig.
- They were detained, but more assaults led to more seances.
- However, the team soon fractured, and it became clear
Sanderson was the most determined of the bunch.
The others surrendered, but Sanderson slipped away,
only to pop up in two more attacks on command personnel,
until one fight ultimately led to Sanderson's death.
Results
- The death of Greg Sanderson.
- Numerous assaults
on various Command and Security personnel.
- Presumed loss of a moonbuggy stolen by Sanderson
and driven to the a nuclear area later destroyed
by a deliberate nuclear event.
- Severe damage to
Eagle 1.
- Apparently minor damage to
Eagle 2.
- Minor damage to some door and computer panels.
- Saturation therapy to try and stave off
further "green sickness."
