Mission Brainstorming

POST MISSION/QUEST IDEAS HERE

All righty, here it is! The new thread that will bring in a wealth of ideas! Or so I hope. It doesn't matter how simple or insignificant you might think your mission idea will be, just post it. We're brainstorming here, so we need to pool our imagination and cleverness. Please try to avoid posting unless you have your own idea to contribute or you have something constructive to say about another individual's idea. Thanks. ;D

Hmmm, how bout missions concerning the Civilization Preservation Treaty? Something like "good" characters could be hired out by a government because they've been receiving reports of exploitation of the underdeveloped civilizations. This could probably be subdevided so there'd be appeal for both ground and space operations. Alternatively, use the same concept but applied to the "evil" characters. Their motivation could be done by crime syndicats (I'm sure there's a few around somewhere ), or perhaps by less noble factions within a government. I'm not sure of how much of an impact you're looking for alignment-wise in game, or if you're got ideas for specific factions and such. But it does have the potential for someone to make a name, either way they go, for themselves.
You could relatively easily create a fairly large quest chain from it, well easily in plot concept at least.
