 ===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters =====
-==== Beta Age Hook ====
+  * **Adventure Hook — Tea Leaves & Bloodlines:**  A cold case flares when a new murder duplicates a 11 month-old signature — pollen traces from a cultivar that only Ezrah grows. The Guarding Troopers want quiet answers; a nervous clerk slips the PCs a referral to OfSO. Ezrah assigns them as “contract botanists”: audit the herbarium, trace where the cultivar could have spread (gifts, cuttings, market swaps), and follow the paper trail through old courier slips and guestroom logs. Did someone weaponize Ezrah’s hobby — or is the killer hiding among OfSO’s former subcontractors?
-  * **Brass in the Ledger —** A grieving widow hires OfSO under the fair-outcome model: her spouse, a warehouse tallyman, “fell” from a gantry. Ezrah assigns the PCs to reconstruct the night via **seal stamps**, gate **time slips**, and a string of **seed-tag** dead-drops the victim used. Prove homicide before the retainer runs dry — and survive the dock boss who doesn’t plan to pay for failure.
-==== Gamma Age Hook ====
-  * **Stacks & Signals —** During Ezrah’s library window, a blood-spotted index card lands on her table: “FRIDAY—RIVER—SEAL 17.” The Federal Sheriff quietly cordons a garbage bay, and a friendly Trooper urges “hands off.” Ezrah taps the PCs to shadow the custody chain (route tickets, bale seals, courier swaps) and keep her name out of it. Is someone using the library meet-up to frame OfSO—or to smuggle a confession in plain sight?
 ===== Notable Personnel =====
@@ Line 86: / Line 84: @@
   * **General Trooper (New Kourou HQ)** — Powerful, wary of Ezrah’s involvement; still tangled by old loyalties.
   * **Subcontractor Pool (var.)** — Trackers, linguists, archivists, locksmiths, protective escorts.
+  * **[[the_tinkerer|“The Tinkerer” (alias)]]** — Rebuffed aspiring professor from Last Frontier University; brilliant DIY fabricator. Builds custom weapons, armor, and tools for OfSO teams; pioneers add-on tech for Ezrah’s botanical investigations (pollen aspirators, seed-tag launchers, Lumi trip-traps). Avoids electronics-heavy designs; prefers analog-first, low-signature builds.
