    +
  • +
  • +

    you’re onboard the Iceberg—are you on the run, employed on the ship, suffering from wanderlust? All three?

    +
  • +
  • +

    what’s your background (see table)?

    +
  • +
  • +

    you wake up from a drug-induced slumber, trapped in storage B.

    +
  • +
  • +

    flashback appropriate to your background: How do they know what they do?
