Maintenance Update
This is the audio log of maintenance technician Adam Berneche,
dated November 10th, 2145. I fixed the couplings on the heat shields
this morning with no problems. I did however have another odd
experience while I was down there. Shortly after finishing the first
coupling adjustment, I distinctly heard whispering. When I went to
investigate the sounds, I found nothing. I checked the work logs and
I was the only person scheduled to be in that area today.
That experience, coupled with the stories I’ve heard from some guys
over in the Delta Labs has me pretty freaked out. I’m really beginning
to hate going down to the underground maintenance area. The
people down there are a bit off. The mumblings, the weird looks, the
whole place is just plain creepy. I’m always expecting someone to
jump out at me.

Adam,
Your report is long overdue. Record an audio log for what you’ve
done today on your maintenance shift and send it to me immediately.
I know you recoded the cabinet today, and it is imperative that I
update my master list with the new code.

Mr. Berneche,
I have some great news for you, your name came up in our last
management meeting as a possible candidate for our Delta Labs
outreach program. As you have probably heard, we are conducting
some very exciting and important experiments here in Delta. Your
supervisor recommended you as a good candidate and in fact he
insisted you would be perfect for the job. I’ve reviewed your file and I
agree with his assessment, you will make a perfect test subject.
Our work here is very important to the UAC and you should feel
privileged that you have a chance to be a part of it.

Per our earlier conversation I’ve stocked the storage cabinet in your
area with some ammunition and security armor. The door code is

careful. I hope to God we never have to use that stuff.

Auxiliary Power Update
This is the audio log of Chief Allen Rhodes, October 12, 2145. Well,
we made significant progress with the field coupler this week. If my
calculations are correct this should provide a considerable boost to
the converter’s output. I just wish Meyers wasn’t so damn pushy
about this project of his. Well, to be fair it’s actually Betruger’s
project. Meyers is just trying to follow orders and do his job…
Anyhow, what we are doing is extremely complex and requires us to
be firing on all cylinders. Expanding all the transference data from
Delta has been a very difficult process. What he’s proposing requires
the full use of a single grid array. I’m just glad we have the entire
auxiliary unit to work with. My hope is within the next few weeks, we
will be able to prime the main array in parallel and have the auxiliary
working in sufficient capacity for the folks over in Exis Labs. And…
uh, I think that’s all I’ve got for now. Allen Rhodes signing off.
Personal Update
Uh, Chief Allen Rhodes, November 15th, 2145. The situation here in
Sector One is bad. Shortly after getting the auxiliary grid synched
with the main array, we experienced a huge power surge… and, uh,
the, uh, the output readings are nominal which, uh, leads me to
conclude that it’s not the auxiliary core. It-it sounds like a problem
with the main array. Regardless, I… started hearing screams and
gunfire over one of the channels just before our communications
went down.

Mr. Chin,
The repairs to storage cabinet 038 have been completed. The door
is no longer stuck and we pulled the dent from the side. It would be a
good idea in the future to remember your cabinet codes instead of
trying to force it open with a wrench. Just for your records the new
code for cabinet #038 is 409, might be a good idea to write it down.

Storage Cabinets
Audio log for lab technician Bernard Fresko, dated 1-12-2147. As
requested by the Security Division I have changed the code for
storage cabinet 042 to 714. Not sure why it’s so important to change
these damn codes every time new personnel arrive. It’s not like…
[sigh] never mind.
I’ve cleaned and stored all of the equipment in preparation for the
upcoming expedition. Hopefully the next team won’t encounter what
happened on the previous trip. What a mess. It’s no wonder there
are fewer volunteers each time. I guess the extra pay just isn’t worth
it to some people.
Admittedly I’m extremely curious about the entire jump process and
wonder what it would be like to join one of the teams. Hell, who am I
trying to kid? Even if I was qualified I’m not sure I’d have the balls to
go through with it anyhow.

Formal Complaint Against Cons…
This is Bernice Tooley, Operations Coordinator, stationed in Exis
Labs. I would like to file my third formal complaint to Central
Authority about the problems with the work environment here in Exis.
It has become increasingly difficult to be productive while
construction is going on throughout the facility. The construction
workers are rude, lack common courtesies, and are overtly sexist!
They use our office space as an unauthorized shortcut and track dirt
and debris as a result! In addition to their mess, they insist on drilling
and hammering during our core staff hours. Some of them have
repeatedly made inappropriate comments that clearly fall [sigh]
under sexual harassment. When I approached the construction
supervisor to remedy the situation, he told me in no uncertain terms
to mind my own business. Actually, his exact words were: ‘Don’t
worry your pretty little head about it.’
Ok, my assistant left me and I’m all alone here. Um, ok… I’m going
to try to get the network working, but systems are acting just… crazy.
I don’t know what to do. I think I, uh- [loud banging sound] What was

Hydrocon O2 leak
Date: 11-10-2145
Lipsitz,
A siphon hose in the oxygen displacement valve is forming a leak
due to the lowered temperatures required to boost production in the

instability in the Hydrocon systems and could result in a very
dangerous situation. It should really be replaced.

immediately ordered the team to discontinue the tests, and they’ve

have also been asked to help Rhodes with the number-crunching
going on with the transfer data, which I hope to be finished with

construction requiring additional EVA time on the Martian surface,
these new suits should hold up better. In the last two months we’ve
had a number of unexplained suit decompressions resulting in
fatalities. In the case of Technician Mike Stanley, the decompression
was so rapid the resulting implosion caused him to almost liquify and

Power Demands
This is the audio log of Frank Delahue, engineering manager
assigned to power production dated October 18th, 2145. The current
operational status of the grid is 23% over nominal capacity. I’ve
increased workshifts to 12 hours a day for all personnel to keep up
with demand.
The constant and increasing load from the Delta Complex is causing
havoc. We are going to start losing critical systems if we have to
sustain these levels much longer. I request clearance to requisition
parts from other departments in order to maintain our equipment.
Ok. I don’t know what is going on over in Delta but I’m doing all I can
down here. The constant demands are bad enough but the rumors
going around are making things a whole lot worse. And I’ve got to tell
you if things don’t get better soon, all hell is going to break loose…
To date we’ve had only one reported injury as a result of these valve
failures, and this is due in large part to the quick response of the
engineering team. Our procedure of entering the failure code 842 in
the operation terminal have proved adequate and I recommend no
changes in that procedure.

but I didn’t see another soul. I even checked the work logs and no

I don’t want to sound crazy here, but my guys and myself are a little

HR Accident Report
Audio log for Jack Smith, Benefits Analyst in HR 10/24/2145. I just
went through another batch of accident reports from the science
team. We’ve had five more people hurt this week while working with
the equipment.
The most serious incident was with John Hughes, whose hand was
caught in one of the plastic extrusion systems. He was performing
maintenance on it and states that he unplugged it and had the safety
key in his pocket. It managed to activate without an apparent power
source and, uh, shredded his arm up to the elbow before someone
got him out. It’s been reported that the, uh, machine is still running
and we can’t shut it down.
The cost on that incident alone is enough to raise the red flag but
this is just one in a pile. We’re going to overrun our budget on
benefits payouts this quarter and while it’s not my department, I have
to assume that the new equipment budget is going to be blown out
as well because according to these reports, the equipment is
breaking down on a daily basis. Please mark this for review at

Soul Cube as a Weapon
Uh, this is the audio log of research director Larry Bullman, October
19th, 2145. I’ve been examining the glyphs on the cube sharped
artifact which some are calling the Soul Cube and combined with
previous research data it is my conclusion the device is some sort of
weapon. If the power fluctuations would stop long enough for me to
get the linguistic CPU online then I am sure my theory would be
verified.
You know, I’ll take this opportunity to lodge yet another complaint
about the continual power problems. Living in this god forsaken base
is bad enough without having to watch the lights flicker constantly,
it’s just well, never mind, back to the task at hand.
To date I have only deciphered about um, two thirds, give or take of
the markings but my initial glance at the rest of them indicates it
harbors some far greater power. As you know, at this time we have
not seen any reaction from the cube and it has withstood any
scanning, abrasion or other test beyond picking it up and examining
it. I suspect like the civilization that constructed it, its capabilities are
diminished to the point of being useful only as a paperweight. End of
log.

Date: 11-14-2145
Larry,
You were correct, the Soul Cube is a weapon. I’ve translated the
glyphs and now I understand how it works!
The Soul Cube must be charged before it can be used. The souls
within it must sense at least five deaths before the spiritual
potentiality matrix reaches positronic astriction. Based on our
interpretation of the glyphs, the Cube has a way of acknowledging its
readiness for action, but it’s unclear how this happens. More
importantly, we still don’t know what will happen when it’s released.
This has gone way beyond the purview of Mars station or even the
UAC. We can’t trust Betruger, he’s gone mad! I’m preparing a report
to send to the highest authorities on Earth.

High Incidence of Psychological Reports
Audio log for Dr. Caseon, currently stationed at Mars City. I’ve just
left the weekly status meeting here at medical. The most prominent
topic was the vast number of psychological issues we are seeing as
of late. The number of reports indicates that 10% of the overall base
personnel have shown symptoms. As many people will not come in
for this type of thing, the number of affected personnel could truly be
in the 30-40% range.
Patient Attack
Dr. Mark Caseon. At 15:37 patient Jonathan Wills was admitted after
complaining of insomnia and nausea. According to the nurse, Mr.
Wills was calm and exhibited no signs of disorder when he was
brought to exam room 5. However, by the time I reached him at ten
after four, his personality had changed dramatically.
I can only guess at the cause of his problems. I hope that additional

Incompetent Employees
This is operations coordinator Mark Lamia, dated November 1st,
2145. I am filing this report because I am frustrated beyond belief by
the level of incompetency I have to deal with here.
I don’t know where HR is getting the new employees, but the last five
guys they’ve sent me were all a bunch of idiots. They can’t get any of
their work done on time. I constantly have to keep an eye on them.
They work slow, they don’t follow any of the standard operating
procedures and they can’t even remember basic things that I tell
them. For example, I changed the cabinet door codes here to 123
because I thought that was easy enough to remember, but they still
forgot.

Personal Audio Log
This is the audio log of Dr. Marten Shultz, dated August 7, 2145. We
need to amend the operating procedures to ensure all target teleport
markers are properly are set and locked before engaging the
systems. We had a tragic accident today in chamber 1 that led to the
death of Susan, one of our female chimps. She stepped onto the
platform during the calibration phase and an electrical short engaged
the system and literally split her in two. Her torso appeared at the
destination marker while her lower extremities remained in place on
the source pad.
I’m not sure how we’ve gone this long without this problem
appearing sooner but it seems like we’ve been having nothing but
difficulties getting these systems to work. I don’t know where
Betruger finds the energy. He’s been busy slaving away in the labs
for 16 hours a day trying to debug these latest problems. What’s he
trying to do? Make the rest of us working stiffs look bad?
Heh… Regardless, we have our work cut out for us over the next
couple of days going over all the systems logs to see exactly what
went wrong with this round of tests. Dr. Marten Shultz signing off,
hoping to report better news next time.

Teleportation Transfers
Date: 11-10-2145
Marten,
Our systems can only build enough of a charge to have the portals
open for approximately 10 to 15 seconds. Enough time to get a team
through, but not enough time to send in some of the heavier
equipment. Do you have any idea how we can route supplemental
power from the stabilizers into the converters? I think if we can
increase the hold field by 13% we could achieve full transfer power
and open the field for a longer amount of time.
Thank You,

Security Report
Security log number 3072 for Delta Security Chief Michael Abrams,
November 15th, 2145. I’ve just come from the armament division
where I was issued one of the new BFG 9000 series weapons. Heh,
well they weren’t kidding about how much lighter it is over previous
prototype models. Won’t be so bad carrying this one around.
Anyhow, for a couple of weeks now many of the security teams have
not been following proper reporting procedures. Not sure if it’s the
format of the new S.I.R. so I’ll make sure each team is scheduled by
training division to get spun up on the new reports.
There’s been some security issues in the Alpha Labs. I’ve sent a
team over to investigate and now I can’t reach them on any Comm
channel. Guess I’ll have to go over there myself. Well, I’m headed
over there now. I’ll finish this security report in full when I get back.
Oh yeah, one more thing. I’m going to leave this BFG locked in my
office for now. Please have IT security change my door code to 901.
Sure as hell don’t need anyone messing around with it. Chief

Cooling Rods Replacement
Paul Raad, chief technical officer for the EnPro facility. During my
weekly inspection of the coolant system I discovered yet another
safety violation. As I’ve stated repeatedly, our service manuals must
be followed to the letter. Now this includes changing back filters for
the coolant system on schedule and not when maintenance gets
around to it.
As you know, unclean back filters will create pressure inside the
coolant system’s release tubes. Even a minor disruption in a release
tube can dislodge or destroy its coolant rod, overheating the core,
possibly sending the entire facility up in smoke.
Now let me be clear: If I see this again, the team responsible will be
transferred to Sewerage Treatment before the day is over.

may disagree but I trust my team’s mental condition far more than
whatever programming is running inside those bots. Which brings

I know this sounds like magic and I have not been able to activate it

The glyphs specifically point out that you must kill five creatures
before it becomes charged and then amazingly it will tell you it is

Auxiliary Power Update
This is the audio log of Chief Allen Rhodes, October 12, 2145. Well,
we made significant progress with the field coupler this week. If my
calculations are correct this should provide a considerable boost to
the converter’s output. I just wish Meyers wasn’t so damn pushy
about this project of his. Well, to be fair it’s actually Betruger’s
project. Meyers is just trying to follow orders and do his job…
Anyhow, what we are doing is extremely complex and requires us to
be firing on all cylinders. Expanding all the transference data from
Delta has been a very difficult process. What he’s proposing requires
the full use of a single grid array. I’m just glad we have the entire
auxiliary unit to work with. My hope is within the next few weeks, we
will be able to prime the main array in parallel and have the auxiliary
working in sufficient capacity for the folks over in Exis Labs. And…
uh, I think that’s all I’ve got for now. Allen Rhodes signing off.
Personal Update
Uh, Chief Allen Rhodes, November 15th, 2145. The situation here in
Sector One is bad. Shortly after getting the auxiliary grid synched
with the main array, we experienced a huge power surge… and, uh,
the, uh, the output readings are nominal which, uh, leads me to
conclude that it’s not the auxiliary core. It-it sounds like a problem
with the main array. Regardless, I… started hearing screams and
gunfire over one of the channels just before our communications

quickly and upload the rest of my finding into the databank. I hope

It was all on the stone tablets, all the answers. I can’t believe we
never saw it. It was as plain as day. If we had only slowed down the
development of the teleporters, and tried to really learn what the
tablets were trying to tell us, trying to warn us.
The ancient people battled the same demons that are attacking us
now. The demons came through the teleporters that they built, just
like now. They created the Soul Cube and used it to stop the
demons, to drive them back to Hell. I don’t know how, but that must
be the answer. That is why that artifact was left behind, left for
someone to find if something like that ever happens again.
I can’t reach Delta from here. I won’t make it. I truly hope and pray
someone finds the Soul Cube, and it helps.

quakes, throws everything around. Makes walkin’ on the catwalks
impossible, and workin’ with voltage… well, stupid.
The noises have some of the guys spooked, and, and I don’t blame
‘em. Nothing natural about what we’ve heard. If someone can figure
out what’s causing the howlers, I’ll get the crew to finish the job. ‘til
then, we’ll be available for a new assignment tomorrow.

Engineer Placement
This is the audio log of Robert Price, Delta operational director in
charge of personnel, recruitment, evaluation and placement.
Assignment of engineers to the lower Delta labs has become almost
impossible. In 6 months we’ve gone from a volunteer surplus to a
critical deficiency of qualified personnel willing to accept assignment.
Increases in both pay and benefits have done little to help this
situation.
Through exit interviews as well as the weekly Delta medical brief, it’s
become apparent to everyone that the rate of sudden and
unexplained mental illness is way beyond acceptable levels, even for
Mars. They’re derogatorily being called Sub Delts up here and I have
a feeling this attitude will spread to other parts of the UAC. End of
log.
Four members of the security detail assigned to the Delta Labs have
been reprimanded with three others under investigation. It seems
caches of weapons, armor and ammo have been discovered in
various places throughout the Delta Labs.

Magnetic Lock Repairs
This is the audio log of engineer Sam Harding, dated April 5th, 2145.
I have just completed repairs on the magnetic locks and I’ve
significantly reprogrammed the pressure sensors on the Monorail
system. My fellow engineers and I are confident that the accident of
last week will never happen again.
The accident should never have happened in the first place. The
internal sensors led the computers to believe that there was a
vacuum inside the vehicle. Unfortunately, the computer decided that
the only way to fix this pressure discrepancy was to open all doors in
an attempt to equalize pressure with the outside.
In going over 15,000 lines of code today, I can see no reason for this
tragic event to have occurred. But somehow the logs show the
discrepancy as clear as day. Honestly, this looks to me like another
case of a solid system going to hell in a hand basket.
I’m confident that the layers of protection I added to the code today
will prevent any such occurrences from happening again. I’m off to
meet engineer Jim Torbin at the access doors to Delta Complex
platform to try to troubleshoot a faulty track sensor that’s been
causing the door to stick.

Plasma Ammo Code
Steve Hammer, service technician. Since Private Swensen wigged
out, shot up that drink machine and lit himself up with a Plasma Gun,
we’ve all been a bit nervous. All of us in maintenance knew he was
losing it. Finally when that darn drink machine wouldn’t accept his
credits, he lost it, started swearing up and down. You had to laugh
when that machine lit up, but before any of us could react, he fed
himself enough plasma to power an office building. There wasn’t
enough head to clean up, just vapor. It’s a bad thing to happen to
anyone.
Anyway, I know with all the psych problems we’ve had lately, we
need the additional security, but when the guards start going nuts… I
don’t know. All this extra weapons and ammunition. I mean, do we
really need so much firepower laying around? Well, a couple of us
decided to lock up all the unsecured plasma rounds we could find.
The code is 734. I think we’ll all sleep a bit better tonight knowing it’s
locked up.

Steve,
I’m still shaken from that incident with Swensen. When I close my
eyes I still see that look on his face in the instant between the impact
of the plasma, and when his head turned to blue vapor. I don’t think
I’ll ever be able to sleep again.
I never liked him, I don’t know who was crazy enough to give him a
plasma gun, but no one should go that way. The worst of it is I’ve
seen a lot of folks who seem more on edge than Swensen was.
Something needs to be done.

2145. It has been brought to my attention by environmental services
that the recent power grid changes have caused many non critical
systems to malfunction. The report explains that this is due to either
intermittent power outages or lower than optimal voltage input.

Director Banks,
Research Assistant Eric Raffel has not reported for work all this
week. I’ve called his quarters repeatedly without response. No one
has seen him in days and I don’t know what to do, he is normally a
very reliable individual. I’ve contacted Mars Security with hope that
they will try and find him. There aren’t a lot of areas to go on this
base… man, I hope he’s alright.
Thank You,
Matthew White
Director Banks,
