Your flagship has discovered a derelict ship drifting in space. It appears to contain an artifact with the power to repair a fleet anywhere in the galaxy. What do you want to do with it?
Our exploration has led us to an artifact of Precursor origin, a device once capable of bending the fabric of spacetime to instantly relocate their vessels to chosen coordinates. Regrettably, the ravages of time have not been kind. The artifact's pinpoint precision has faded into erratic uncertainty - our researchers warn that activation will now result in a random spatial displacement. Nevertheless, this unpredictable characteristic could be tactically advantageous, providing us a means to displace unwelcome fleets into the vast, unknown reaches of space.

A small group of aliens you initially mistake for a copse of trees lives here. They claim they can speak with {PLANETNAME}. They offer to show you how. Although the planet seems disinterested in your day to day affairs, it might be possible to communicate with it further. What are your orders?
{PLANETNAME} is tectonically active, with regular earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. On the plus side, this is bringing a lot of valuable minerals up the surface, where it will be far easier to extract. On the downside, a lot of people are being killed by lava. Your engineers think they can stabilize the crust to stop the earthquakes, but the decision on whether to implement it hasn't been made yet. What are your orders?
Upon landing on {PLANETNAME}, you quickly realize that it has been inhabited before. Beneath the northern ice, explorers have found a ruined starship with an active Leaching Field module which will reduce the shield strength of enemy ships in battle. Your colonists believe they can extract the module, but the resulting melt will flood much of the arable land on the planet; the climate change will kill most of the unique native species.

The primitive species that occupies {PLANETNAME} was once far more technologically advanced, and accidentally ruined their civilization in some kind of nuclear war several hundred years ago. Ruined cities dot the planet except for one bunker with an active missile defense system. But the natives regard this bunker as sacred, and insist we stay away from it. What are your orders?
There's substantial evidence that much of the plant life on {PLANETNAME} is communicating with each other via pheromones, and that it may in fact be sentient. Unfortunately for us, the most intelligent of the plants seem to prefer the most fertile ground, which we had earmarked for colonization. What are your orders?
The location of our colony on {PLANETNAME} is apparently the prime hunting grounds for a species of massive, building-sized worms. This is by far the most fertile land on the planet, so we don't want to move if we don't have to. But on the other hand, massive building sized worms. What are your orders?
A strange fungus on {PLANETNAME} has begun infecting our colonists with an illness that is immune to our medicine. Although our doctors can treat the symptoms easily enough, they have no hope of finding a cure, and the risk of contagion is high. With this disease afflicting us, our colony will never see its full growth potential. Some argue that we should cull the diseased to protect the rest of the colony. Others, notably the diseased, argue against this. What are your orders?
Colonists on {PLANETNAME} have taken to breeding and racing a local species of squat, four-legged animals. The harsh gravity of the world makes the races particularly gruelling, and footage of injured animals has caused animal rights activists around the galaxy to demand this barbaric practice be stopped. But it's become a big part of the local culture, and the colonists won't be happy if we end the races. What are your orders?

----
[[File:Event_AlienTrash.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Alien Cultural Trash]]
{PLANETNAME} was once the home of an alien civilization which disappeared a thousand years earlier. Although none of their technology is new, many of their entertainment products remain intact, and are of great interest to the colonists. Unfortunately almost all of these shows and programs are incredibly childish and puerile, featuring an unfortunate amount of jokes about orifices. The colony's workplaces are now filled with practical jokes that sap productivity. What are your orders?
An aggressive species of sentient quadrupeds live in the forests and hills of {PLANETNAME}. They've resisted all attempts to communicate with them, and have relentlessly attacked your colony since you arrived. Although no actual threat to you militarily, they can harass and easily slaughter unguarded civilians. As is so often the case when the risk of slaughter is non-zero, morale amongst the colonists is low. What are your orders?
Our isolation of the native quadrupeds on {PLANETNAME} was unsuccessful. They somehow escaped confinement and attacked our colony. Those that survived will never forget the attack.
{PLANETNAME} colonists report a variety of strange disturbances: Doors which open and close on their own, strange lights in the night; a mysterious hole in the ground which screams. Your scientists seem to think the colony might be haunted. "Building on the ruins of a previously failed colony may have been a bad idea," they say. "Also, underneath that colony was another failed colony. Which was built on a graveyard." What are your orders?
The flowers of a specific plant on {PLANETNAME} are a powerful intoxicant. The drug provides an intense feeling of contentment to all those who consume it, although in a few cases people have been content to walk directly into powerful machinery. What are your orders?

A comet has reentered the solar system of {PLANETNAME} after a fifty year absence, throwing a primitive local species into a frenzy. They apparently worship this regularly returning visitor as a god. Your scientists report that this comet is at least partly artificial, a relic apparently left in the Oort cloud by an advanced species. There may be some salvage potential in it, provided of course that we're willing to kill a god to get it. What are your orders?
{PLANETNAME} suffers from heavy thunderstorm activity. This is affecting an ancient ruin, revealing it to be a powerful alien artifact capable of drawing and channeling the tremendous energy. Sometimes this energy is channeled into the bodies of anyone standing nearby, with predictably messy consequences. Studying these ruins could prove incredibly valuable, although also dangerous to anyone who has to do it. What are your orders?
An increased period of solar activity has caused a species of previously dormant insects to suddenly begin swarming, greatly limiting activity on {PLANETNAME}. Your scientists have developed a sonic screen which can kill the insects, but believe there may also be a way to expand the technology to rid the world of the swarm forever. What effects that will have on the ecosystem are as yet unknown. What are your orders?
{PLANETNAME} was once the home of a fairly advanced alien species that created some extremely long lasting sub-sentient AI systems. Something you've done has triggered these systems defensive protocols. Now anyone who ventures outside of the colony is at risk of attack from primitive robotic creatures. What are your orders?
Our scientists have been able to take control of the planet's robots on {PLANETNAME}. After that, it is a simple matter to program them to perform subsurface drilling on the planet to reach mineral deposits that were out of the reach of our colonists. And, if we ever need it, we can switch them back to attack mode.
Our attempt to hack into the robots on {PLANETNAME} fails. Instead it triggers the robots to go into an even more aggressive mode where they view us as their primary target. We are still able to maintain our colony on {PLANETNAME}, but if we are ever invaded the invaders will discover a robotic army eager to help them out.

[[File:gc_event_4.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Animals to Tame]]
The terrain of {PLANETNAME} has proven very challenging for our conventional ground vehicles. Some colonists have begun capturing and taming a local species of marsupial to use for hopping around between buildings and colonies. The animals are well suited for the work, and don't seem to be suffering, but there have been a few accidents. Animal rights activists across the galaxy are demanding the practice be banned. What are your orders?
Two continents of {PLANETNAME} are joined by a massive ice bridge, which is beginning to collapse. A large Snuggler Colony makes their home on this bridge and are in danger of dying within the next year if they're not relocated. The ice bridge is remote however, and this won't come cheaply. What are your orders?
A new source of subterranean water has been discovered on {PLANETNAME}. If accessed it could dramatically help the colony. The water could be used to boost food production or even just people's quality of life. Baths might be possible again, for example. What are your orders?
{PLANETNAME} is populated by a species of gigantic subterranean insects that are normally docile. Our scientists have identified that the walls of their nests are lined with Harmony Crystals which we could potentially excavate. This will not please the scorpions. What are your orders?
{PLANETNAME} has a group of natives who carry relics far more advanced than their primitive technology. Their oral history gives hints that they arrived here from a long journey some hundreds of years earlier. Your scientists get the impression they're a failed colony which has regressed to pre-industrial levels. It's possible some of their relics could be of interest to your researchers, but they're quite valuable to the natives. What are your orders?
Despite the equipment and protocols set up to protect against the massive radiation on {PLANETNAME}, mutations are a fact of life for those who live here. A talented local surgeon believes that the most extreme cases might not be worth the time spent to heal them. Instead he suggests that we use those subjects as organ harvest donors for the less critical patients. What are your orders?
The intense background radiation of {PLANETNAME} occasionally causes strange interference patterns in display screens around your colony; and recently these patterns have shown signs of intelligent thought. Your scientists trace the patterns to crystal outcroppings around your colony. Studying this new form of intelligence could open the door to incredible breakthroughs in the understanding of life. On the other hand, those crystals are pretty valuable looking. What are your orders?
The crystals of {PLANETNAME} continue to grow; the radiation increases until a single moment when it bursts into a blinding light. For a moment people across the galaxy report visions of other worlds, of other species, and of time itself. When it is over the crystals are gone but explorers are drawn to this world to study what happened.
We don't interfere with the crystals on {PLANETNAME}. Whatever the crystals needed to grow, they don't receive it. Instead they become dull and grey; and the radiation fades as well. You can't help but feel that something special died here.
Your geologists have come across an incredibly rich vein of rare minerals which could dramatically increase the economic output of {PLANETNAME}. Unfortunately, accessing them will release toxic gases trapped within the planet's crust. The colonists ask that these minerals be left alone. What are your orders?
Food grown on {PLANETNAME} has a distinct taste. Locals don't notice anything unusual, but off-world visitors find it exceedingly strange and even exotic tasting. Of late, the outside world has developed a faddish taste for this colony's food, and there has been much demand for the export of it, even to the point of leaving this colony short of food. What are your orders?
A sudden increase in storm activity on {PLANETNAME} has dramatically increased the weathering of the seals on your colony buildings. A new generation of self-healing seals will help minimize the damage, but replacing them all could be pretty expensive. What are your orders?
The atmosphere of {PLANETNAME}, thick with poisonous particulates, does have the side effect of causing beautiful, even spectacular sunsets, and word has spread through the galaxy of their beauty. A burgeoning tourist industry has developed, resulting in many coughing tourists, ignorant of the dangers of this planet. Your colonists are getting tired of stepping over their bodies.

Our central processing core of our world has achieved an unprecedented level of computational efficiency. It has, in a way, become sentient itself. We do not believe we can replicate this result but it does offer us several possible directives to pursue. Each directive will significantly enhance a different aspect of our civilization.We must decide on a directive to fully leverage this evolution.
Our sensors have detected a primitive organic civilization on the newly acquired planet of {PLANETNAME}. As an anathema to our purity, they must be dealt with. Our core directives offer several strategic approaches to address the presence of organic inefficiency.
|'''Establish a protocol of peaceful coexistence. Demonstrate to the galaxy our capacity for harmony.'''
<small>Our peaceful actions have echoed across the stars. The organic species thrives under our protection, and other civilizations regard us with newfound respect.</small>
Intelligence reports reveal the presence of a sophisticated criminal syndicate on your planet, {PLANETNAME}. They are called the Zilrathi Syndicate and they have offered a share of their profits in exchange for turning a blind eye. Alternatively, we could restore order by shutting down their operations.

Your flagship's scans of the Artifact anomaly have uncovered something. A map to a nearby dead star that would normally be invisible to our sensors. A structure, hidden within the carcass of the dead star, whispers of the ancient Mithrilar—a civilization whose shadows outlive the stars themselves. Buried in the celestial mausoleum is a device of their making: a conundrum of metal and mystery that hums with forgotten knowledge. Its cryptic mechanisms promise a leap in cognitive prowess, to awaken genius in the minds of our citizens that could transcend the limitations of biology and time.However, the lead archeologist on the crew warns that this technology was almost certainly not meant for our species at our current stage of development and counsels you to not use it.
