You don't know where you are.

All you know is that you've been taken away from the comfort of your apartment, and are now in a small, square room. There are no windows, nothing but a single light overhead, and the door is locked. There are no sounds to give away where you've been taken, and thus you're left in the dark, both figuratively and nearly literally.

You've been taken by a group known as CAT6 - and they aren't interested in you as an individual. All they want is information, and as far as they're concerned, you have it. And you're going to give it to them. Oh, and if you thought you were leaving?

Sorry about that. You aren't. Not until they have what they want.

This log is for those of you that volunteered to have your characters interrogated and possibly tortured for information. While we encourage you to play these threads out as you would like - have them get as ugly as you're comfortable with - it will not go any further than what you, the players, would like. Mostly, it's all about the giving of information and ultimately, your character will be released to go on about their business.

Until then, have fun letting them be interrogated!

They've had that feeling. From the very moment that they'd brought her in, there had been a general feeling of knowing that they were going to be here for quite some time.

There is also that foreboding feeling of not being able to break her easily. That they're going to have to break out the big guns for this one.

"I don't need you to tell me about an operation that I'm a part of," the operative says blandly. "Why don't you tell us more about what you do. What kind of technology you came here with."

Liara wasn't stupid, albeit she didn't understand a great many conversational tactics, but with as bored as the interrogation operative seemed she was curious as to what they expected her to say.

"I'm a scientist, I study Prothean relics. I came here with the same technology as everyone else, on a Kodiak shuttle."

It wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the entire truth. But as far as anyone could tell Liara was just as she said she was. Even her small stint as an information broker on Illium was over shadowed by her recent return to studying the relics she had previously. She doubted that was what they wanted to hear, but she was sticking to what she knew so far.

[cat6]

From what they knew of her, they knew she wasn't in any way stupid; her intelligence far surpasses any of that which they've already come across, and they know they're going to have to be careful with how this goes.

Because she will know how to respond, and keep them from getting the information that they want from her.

Her answer is clear enough, and the operative nods, comprehending. Leaving that bit for now, the next question is a bit more straightforward. "And what do you know about the relay? About why it isn't functioning?"

[dowhatittakes]

Of course this was about the relay. In all honesty Liara was just as in the dark as anyone else on the station despite her multiple connections. But she doubted that was what they wanted to hear.

Not taking her eyes off of the operative in front of her she answered as honestly as she could.

"I have no information on that, it's as much a mystery to me as it is to anyone else. There is no reason it shouldn't be functioning, nor why people are coing from the Omega-4 relay."

[cat6]

Yes, it's about the relay. And other things, as well, but there's more than enough time to get to that.

That Liara keeps her eyes straight, her gaze unwavering, and the operative knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that they're going to be here for a while.

"We thought you would say something like that," the operative says, voice low and disbelieving. "And we know that you know things that you aren't willing to disclose. But by the time we're finished with you? You'll be begging to tell us everything you know. Now.

"Why don't you try that again?"

[dowhatittakes]

"I don't know anything about the relay or what's going on with it, or why I'm on Omega," Liara repeated. She had a feeling things were going to get very ugly soon, but she honestly didn't know what was going on with either relay at the moment.

"I have no other information on them."
