In the year 2034... Mining can be dangerous, being crushed, suffocated, or trapped and starved to death are only the usual risks. You could also be redirected into the sewer and drowned, shot by other rogue miners, or eaten alive by monsters from the depths. But they pay is good, the right merchants will pay handsomely for minerals or metals, and the wrong merchants will pay the gear you steal from other miners. To start your life as a miner fill out the character sheets below.
Also spend you starter money for gear at Godmund's Shop. (Note: Weapons will stay in your items list and not under arms until you choose to equipped them)

I shrug grimly and go about releasing the two of them. "There's still some more to this place. He might be in a different room," I say as I pull Sissy from the tissue box.

"Uh, probably green-land. Maybe even Iceland if they make a error. Last time I got caught they sent me to Korea." The truck goes over a speed bump and rocks alarmingly. The Mexicans get into an argument and start shouting at each other gutturally.

As Penny retrieves her gear Sissy spots the revolver on your belt "Lordy an' Tarnations; you gotta gimme yer six-shooter!" She gives you sad-albino-puppy-cowboy-pshycopath eyes.
Merrin checks one of the doors and finds it to lead out onto the street.

(have my items been confiscated? Or can 'deporters' not do that?)
"Korea? Wow, they aren't very observative..." I stand up, not quite between the Mexicans. "He break it up you too!" I say, speaking English again.

You still have your gear, although they have forced safeties attached. One of them turns to you and squints for several seconds. The other waves a double-action revolver, which you suspect had no safety to fix.

I back away holding my hands up. "No need to be hasty..." I stammer.

"Free at last, free at last" I smile brightly as I pass the pistol to Sissy and exclaim, "Here ya go, pal!" Then I turn to Merrin and call her an inbred-hillbilly under my breath.

Sissy eagerly checks the load on the magnum, giggling at the sight of six shiny primers smiling back at her. "We gotta find Alazannder," Penny says moving toward the last door "I have a contract."

I try to look passive and innocent. Then laugh slightly randomly. Before pretending nothing happened.

Penny nudges the door open and you enter a very dark small room. As the light spills in from the door Alazzander hisses and scuttles into the corner, clawing at his eyes. "The door was unlocked, idiot." Penny laughs. Alazzander picks up his sidearm squinting sheepishly. "Yeah, well they claimed that the door was covered in spiders, I couldn't tel in the dark."

A officer unchains and cuffs you. Before a night-stick thumps your head and you black out you hear something distinctively unpromising. "Time to get you back to Mongolia."
Some time later you wake up in a small waiting room.

Oh, perfect. Um, I check out the place looking for exits mainly and weaponry.

There is a desk with no secretary and a revolving door leading out. Your weapon has been turned off safety but the automatic has been disabled.

I examine the desk, opening draws, checking for money, food and weaponry.

"We should go now," I say leading the way out of Alazzander's cell.
