There have been inventions throughout the history of mankind that changed forever the direction of its evolution. The wheel, the written word, the smelting of bronze and iron, the splitting of the atom. The perfection of fusing atoms came nearly too late in the human story. By the time it was perfected, providing cheap and clean power, it was nearly too late for the race that dominated their world. The skies were clogged with pollution, the seas high, nearly apocalyptical weather a regularity. Fusion power prevented things from getting much worse, but was deemed insufficient for turning back the clock.
So instead the nations of the world gathered together to create great ships that would travel to distant worlds, forming the Human Expansionist League. Through the use of cryogenic suspension the best and brightest of the world were bundled together to take humanities legacy to the stars, to keep the history of Homo-Sapiens Sapiens moving forward. To some however, the abandonment of Earth was the wrong decision. These groups decried not only the loss of humanities intellectual future, but also the sheer cost of the projects that took them away on one way trips. The most aggressive of these is known as the Earth First Liberationists.
It was Captain Azarius of the New Horizons that first discovered that something wasn’t completely right aboard the majestic kilometers long ship. Odd items showed in various places throughout the ship’s cargo manifests. Odd lines of code appeared throughout the ships central computer. In depth analysis of the 10,000 plus bodies on board showed outliers in unexpected numbers. Something was clearly amiss.
Not knowing who he could trust however, the Captain prepared alone, keeping his suspicions from the ten other members of the crew that were keeping the ship running as it ramped up speed and surged towards an orbital maneuver with Jupiter. Half hoping he was just being paranoid, he isolated various sub-systems of the computer and retasked them to perform similar, yet somewhat different tasks than they were normally supposed to do. His goal was the investigation of every member of his active crew, in order to either put to rest his suspicions, or have someone to lay them on.
It isn’t clear if he somehow tipped his hand, or if the plan intended for him to be killed, but less than a month into the 50+ years journey, the crew was startled out of their ennui by the jettisoning of the captains habitation pod, something that wasn’t due to occur until their arrival at a distant star. Knowing he didn’t have much time available, and presuming the conspiracy was limited to a few, Azarius broadcasted not only his suspicions, but also a listing of the programs he had prepared for his investigations. Not long after that, the constantly accelerating New Horizons moved beyond the range of the limited transmission capacities of the pod, and the Captain was consigned to the deep dark of space to die alone.
Following the captains announcements, the crew scrambled to secure the programs he had prepared. During the scramble however, many of the programs were damaged, as multiple people tried to access the same functions. The result was only a few copies of most of the programs being made, and none of them stable beyond a single use. To further complicate matters, the systems the programs were stored in by the crew were themselves unstable, never intended for the purposes they were being used for. Each pair of sub-routines was located on individual servers, and any time a crew member used one of them, the other stored in the same system would also be lost.
Despite having access to a number of programs, each crew member was functionally left with only half the number they had managed to secure. In order to find the traitors on board, the crew would have to work together. The greatest tool they had available was the ability to override the security measures for the various pods each crew member worked out of, once per day, and jettison that pod as the captains had been jettisoned. Once initiated, the pod that received the most commands to be jettisoned would follow the captain into the empty depths of space.
Thus, the crew is left to conduct the investigation the captain had intended on conducing himself. Those tasked with protecting the lives of tens of thousands would be reduced to taking the life of one at a time until no members of the Earth First Liberationists were left on the ship. Should they fail in their task however, the traitors would be able to use the ship to make a statement so horrific that the governments of Earth would be unable to ignore it, and would be forced instead to focus on their dying planet. The fate of humanity's future lies in your hands.
