September 14, 2019
By a lot of dumb luck, my character has survived to what I keep thinking is the climax of this War On SpaceDrugs. I’ve beaten up an air traffic controller and the head of Customs, killed 5 people, talked to a snake-woman monster in an ancient temple, and scarfed 8 happy stay-awake tablets trying not […]

In my last episode, I confronted an air traffic controller who spilled the beans about a crooked Customs agent letting drugs through, and an asteroid where something fishy is going on. I went out to the asteroid post-haste, and found not a drug factory… but robed, chanting people and an ancient-style temple to a snake-woman-monster, […]

My name’s Max Power. I’m a vice cop. I’m here on some backwater planet called Kether, in search of a ring of dope manufacturers.
