Created comprehensive 3-act structure for 'Insider Trading' investigation mission:
ACT 1: THE CORPORATE INFILTRATION (20-25 min)
- Arrival at Quantum Dynamics as security consultant
- Meet CSO Patricia Morgan, receive investigation brief
- Review security logs, narrow 8 suspects to 3
- First NPC interactions (Lisa Rodriguez provides Torres background)
- Discovery of Bludit server (Torres' personal blog = ENTROPY comms)
ACT 2: THE INVESTIGATION (35-45 min)
- VM Challenge: Bludit CMS exploitation (CVE-2019-16113)
* Flag 1: Recruitment timeline, $45K payments received
* Flag 2: Digital Vanguard server IPs, exfiltration proof
* Flag 3: File manifest (3.1 TB / 4.2 TB stolen)
* Flag 4: The Architect's approval message (foreign sales)
- Employee interviews: Chen, Park, Johnson, Kevin (eliminate red herrings)
- Physical evidence: Medical bills, Torres' journal, encrypted USB
- Evidence correlation: Overwhelming proof Torres is insider
- Moral complexity established: Sympathetic motivation (Elena's cancer)
ACT 3: THE CONFRONTATION & CHOICE (15-20 min)
- Confront Torres with evidence (approach varies by player)
- Reveal ENTROPY's deception ('journalists' = Chinese MSS/Russian GRU)
- Torres' breakdown: Realizes 12-40 intelligence officers will die
- CRITICAL CHOICE (4 distinct paths):
* A. Turn Torres into double agent (family saved, ongoing intel for M6-M10)
* B. Arrest Torres (justice, Elena dies, children orphaned, limited intel)
* C. Sympathetic release (family escapes, player misconduct, partial failure)
* D. Public exposure (ENTROPY disrupted, Quantum Dynamics destroyed, 450 jobs lost)
- Prevent final data exfiltration (varies by choice)
- Secure remaining Project Heisenberg data
CLOSING DEBRIEF (5-7 min)
- Tracks ACTUAL player actions (60+ variables)
- NO vague 'approach' labels, only specific discoveries
- Choice consequences revealed (Elena's fate, Torres' cooperation, ENTROPY network)
- ENTROPY business model revealed: Criminal corporation with SLAs
* Insider Threat Initiative: Talent acquisition ($15K per placement)
* Digital Vanguard: Technical analysis infrastructure
* Zero Day Syndicate: Weaponization and sales
* Crypto Anarchists: Payment processing
- HashChain Exchange foreshadowed (sets up M6)
- The Architect pattern: 4th mention across campaign
CONCRETE STAKES ESTABLISHED:
- Operation Schrödinger: 4.2 TB quantum cryptography theft
- 12-40 intelligence officers will die if data reaches foreign governments
- Elena Torres: Stage 3 cancer, $380K treatment, 60% survival with treatment
- Children: Sofia (11), Miguel (8) - family photos/drawings shown
- $45-70 million ENTROPY revenue from foreign sales
- 450 Quantum Dynamics employees (jobs at risk)
MORAL COMPLEXITY:
- Torres is sympathetic: Desperate to save wife, manipulated by ENTROPY
- Journal shows moral descent (8 months of gradual compromise)
- No 'right' answer: All choices have severe consequences
- Family vs. national security, justice vs. mercy, transparency vs. secrecy
CAMPAIGN INTEGRATION:
- If Torres turned: Intelligence asset through M10 finale
- 22 other Insider Threat Initiative placements revealed
- Links M4 (infrastructure attacks) to M6 (crypto tracking)
- Task Force Null investigation advances
Document includes complete variable tracking system (60+ variables),
detailed beat-by-beat structure, and specific implementation notes.
Ready for Stage 2: Atmosphere & Environment Design.
