So. Personally? My impression is that I'm the only asshole here who isn't content to sit with their thumb up their asses. But, problem is? I've kind of got trust issues. Will fully admit that. And this info? Very juicy. Very interesting. Very dangerous, if it's in the heads of someone that doesn't think of a situation fully before they do something about it. But you three? I think-- Well, I think we've at least got something to start with here. So, first thing's first. Give this a read over.

Captain ADMIRAL SONYA PERKINS
BORN: December 14, 2923 DETROIT, MICHIGAN OCCUPATION: CAPTAIN aboard THE PYGMALION STATUS: Unknown
ADM SONYA PERKINS is a senior member of HARLAN. She is known for her prowess in combat as well as her leadership capabilities. Born in Detroit a few months before its fall, she is one of the last American born humans. She was liberated from Detroit on February 12, 2923 and given to a foster HARLAN family. She, as well as every other Earthen Human, became spacers in the PELAGIC GENESIS of 2930. ADM SONYA PERKINS was trained to be a HARLAN agent from age 18 and went on her first mission aboard THE ECHO. ADM SONYA PERKINS volunteered for THE CRADLE PROJECT mission, stating that she "did not want anyone else to carry the burden". Psychological evaluations determined that ADM SONYA PERKINS was best fit for the duress the crew of THE PYGMALION would face during THE CRADLE PROJECT.
Doctor DR. FAHIM MORELIND, PHD
BORN: September 4, 2921 ANKARA, TURKEY OCCUPATION: DOCTOR aboard THE PYGMALION STATUS: Unknown
DR. MORELIND is not a member of HARLAN. DR. MORELIND has worked as a civilian practitioner since receiving his medical license in May, 2945. DR. MORELIND was brought aboard THE PYGMALION instead of a HARLAN doctor due to his prowess in the fields of biomimetics and nanomedicine. While he is responsible for the crew of THE PYGMALION'S health, his main responsibility is to monitor the participants of THE CRADLE PROJECT and ensure they are in perfect health upon activation.
Harlan Hello, and welcome to Harlan!
As you are well aware, we are a collective of likeminded former Earthers. Depending on the sect you find yourself in, you may find yourself in a multitude of roles — we have operatives who act as paramilitary forces, exploratory teams, research crews, and shelter vessels. You likely will know what role you have been thrust in once you have been assigned to a particular mission. We have one ultimate goal, and we will do whatever it might take to achieve it — a solution for the Pelagic Genesis of 2930.
There are two proposed solutions to the Pelagic Genesis.
1. The terraformation of a new planet. The methodology of this solution is still being researched. It is likely near impossible to truly terraform a planet. Before colonzation can occur, the climate must be altered and adjusted for human habitation, a sustainable plant culture must be located, a reliable source of water must either be found or manmade, renewable energy sources must be created.. this is only the tip of the iceberg of the issues that come with terraforming a planet.
2. The Cradle Project. The details of the project are under lock and key. Only those operatives who are assigned to work on the project are aware of what it entails. If it is a success, it could be the savior of humanity as we know it. The team tasked with carrying out the project currently are researching the ethical, psychological, and epidemiological issues that arise from the project's nature.
Each Harlan operative will, in some way, contribute to one of these possibilities somehow. I trust that you will carry out your mission with humanity's sake in mind.
