 ===== Look and Feel =====
-Patchwork, but disciplined. Salvaged tank plates and truss ribs ring the digesters; catwalks tread on ship-deck offcuts; lines are hand-painted with FWRS bands. The air rides a warm, earthy tang from biofilters; oil lamps and [[luminofera|*Luminofera*]] bands lay an even, low-draw glow across gauges and clipboards. Valves thunk, rakes scrape, tarps snap — **exohuman + gravity mechanics** over motors. Analog thermometers, manometers, float glasses, and chalked batch boards carry the story at a glance; logs live on clipboards, not screens. Orderly, repeatable, energy-aware — industrial craft built from second lives.

 ===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters =====
-**Adventure Hook — The Sour Tank:** A digester goes acid—gas output plunges, alarms twitch, and a technician vanishes. The Sheriff quietly deputizes the PCs: check gate ledgers, sampling logs, and teletype GAIA dispatch slips; trace a missing AuroraSan load that never hit the intake. Was it sabotage, theft of gas, or a body dumped into the stream? Stabilize the tank before pressure forces a dangerous flare, and unmask the culprit behind the “sour.”
+  * **Adventure Hook — Bloom in the Soil:** A trusted informant tells the Federal Sheriff that the [[jane_bold_gang|Jane Mendoza Gang]] is piggybacking on memorial-soil consignments — bribed plant staff are dosing batches with a lab-made catalyst that boosts intoxicant herb yields downrange. The Sheriff deputizes the PCs for a covert audit: sample the quarantine shed, cross-check batch assays against teletype dispatch slips, and trace route tickets to fields showing abnormal growth. Identify the compromised operators (lab, handlers, clerks), flip a weak link, and map the trafficking path between settlements. Shut the network before the next blended load rolls to Hope.
