DRY SHAMPOO & SOAP KIT

When the Last Frontier crash‑landed on VOI 700 D in late 2625, its passenger‑care bays yielded sealed sachets of dry shampoo and solid soap — meant for daily grooming on long voyages. The fledgling Free State of Settlers warehoused these hygiene kits (alongside Emergency Space Nutrition‑Packs, Period Kits, and diapers) in a temporary New Kourou depot.

By early 2626, the Frontier Supply Company secured a revenue‑share deal to dispense the kits via its Frontier Quickdraw Network, turning personal hygiene into a 24/7 Quickdraw staple. Settlers could “pull clean” any hour, waging filth with a simple lever‑click.

In the Gamma Age, public distribution ceased. The Federal Allotment Agency stockpiled remaining sachets as emergency hygiene reserves — releasing them only under crisis directives. Under Peace Treaty mandates, the Federal Confederation then commissioned its New Kourou Federal Personal Care Plant to develop a sustainable, locally sourced line of fully biodegradable dry shampoos and soaps, ensuring that disposable kits could be phased out in favor of long‑lasting, eco‑friendly products.

• Poisoned Bottle Blackmail: Talia "Quickshot" Maren, founder of the Frontier Supply Company, is in full panic mode. She just got a ransom note demanding 10.000 Kourou by next Friday — or more Quickdraw goods will turn lethal. One water bottle’s already been tainted, and every vending‑machine staple could be next: the Starshine Schnaps, Chew Meat Strips, even the Emergency Space Nutrition Packs and Dry Shampoo & Soap Kits.Talia hires the PC to Intercept the poisoned bottle before it reaches a customer, trace the breach in her supply chain and to unmask the saboteur …
