This scenario should be used when one of the PCs screws up and compromises a mission. Unbeknownst to him, the CEO of the company that employs the PC for his cover occupation has long been suspected of being a WEB operative, but there has been no hard evidence as of yet. But the PCs’ involvement with the company, along with his recent foul-up, has brought doubts as to the PC’s loyalty. To make matters worse, during the next pay period the PC is overpaid by $10,000 deposited directly into his bank account. That’s all ORION needs to declare the PC and his companions rogue agents.

And in all cases, the murderers are around fifty years old. Though there are murders of this nature being committed all across the country, fully half of them have taken place in the PCs’ home city.

Something is up. The agents have been on more ops in the last few weeks than they usually go on in six months.
