When the Last Frontier slammed into VOI 700 D, emergency cargo bays cracked open to reveal crates of sealed liquid nutrition packs — designed to keep passengers alive through disasters or long evacuations. The newborn Free State of Settlers moved these pouches (alongside Dry Shampoo & Soap Kits, Period Kits, and diapers for toddlers/elderly) into a temporary warehouse in New Kourou for controlled distribution.

By early 2626, the Frontier Supply Company negotiated access: the packs became a staple item in the Frontier Quickdraw Network, ensuring any settler could “pull a meal” even when kitchens were shut and harvests ran thin.

In the Gamma Age, the Federal Allotment Agency did not hand them out routinely; it stockpiled the remaining packs as emergency reserves, releasing them only under crisis directives — everyone else turned to the black market.

• Hydrolyzed Protein Slurry – lab-processed soy/spirulina blend from shipboard bioreactors
• Slow-Carb Gel – maltodextrin & oat polymers for sustained energy release
• Electrolyte & Vitamin Stack – buffered salts, trace minerals, fat‑soluble vitamins micro‑encapsulated in oil droplets
• Stabilizers & Emulsifiers – lecithin, pectin, and ship-grade xanthan to keep the emulsion uniform
• Purified Reclaimer Water – triple-filtered through Last Frontier life-support loops
• Packaging: Multilayer mylar/aluminum pouches, nitrogen-flushed, with an oxygen-scavenger patch and heat-crimped seams. Each pouch carries a tear-notch and a fold-over spout cap.

Plain, utilitarian shipboard design:

• Color & Material: Matte-white, multilayer mylar/aluminum pouches (500 mL / 1 L), fully light- and oxygen-tight.
• Logos & Icons: Front shows the blue European Space Agency (https://www.esa.int/) logo beside a simple dual “Food & Energy” pictogram (bowl + lightning bolt).
• Print Details: Batch code, production year (2421), and “OPEN • DRINK WITHIN 24H” in four languages (English, French, German and Spanish).
• Opening: Tear notch at the top; fold-over spout with a wire clip for re-sealing.
• Safety Marker: A small dark-blue oxygen indicator dot — turns grey if the seal is compromised.

• Triple-layer foil/mylar walls block UV and O₂ ingress.
• Internal oxygen scavengers mop up residual air after sealing.

• The slurry is acidified to inhibit bacterial growth.
• Vitamins and fats are micro-encapsulated, preventing rancidity and separation.

• Filled hot into sterile pouches, then flash-cooled.
• Heat crimps fuse polymer layers; any breach shows as a visible delaminate.

• Decade-long shelf life if unopened; 24 hours once breached.
• Taste: bland-sweet, faintly metallic — settlers often chase it with chew meat or schnapps.

• Crash-Era Lifeline – Kept first-wave settlers on their feet when crops failed and kitchens burned.
• Quickdraw Staple – “Grab a Pack and keep moving” became a trail motto.
• Collectible Foil – Empty pouches repurposed as signal mirrors, map cases, even makeshift solar cook reflectors.

• 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 …
