 | 🩹 **PCs arrive injured, exhausted, or clearly under-resourced** | Locals don’t ask why. They point toward practical fixes and move on. | Reinforces Morningstar’s survival-first mindset; funnels PCs toward hub locations. |
 | 🍲 **PCs seek food. lodging or a place to stabilize ask a local (like Brom Cedeno) for directions** | Brom gives short, practical answers: “Food’s down-ring. Diner or Market. Beds at Saw's End. Don't expect silence.” | Leads PCs naturally to the primary hub locations. If PCs are acting erratically, Brom disengages quickly. |
-| 🕵️ **PCs are Wanted and Undisguised (The Ticking Clock)** | Recognition happens passively. A Butler Bot pauses for half a second. The Ledger Clerk's eyes flick to a bounty board. Megara Warwick notices them, turns her wheelchair, and rolls away quietly. | The Clock Starts: The PCs are not arrested immediately, but locals have quietly informed the Guarding Troopers. The PCs have roughly 1 Hour (or 1 Location Visit) to get off the streets, find disguises, or hide before active patrols pinpoint them. If time expires without mitigation, the station's siren wails. Proceed directly to [[hauh_morningstar_manhunt|Scene 4g — Escaping Morningstar]]. |

-| 🚨 **Guarding Troopers engage the PCs directly (If time runs out or PCs cause chaos)** | A street patrol moves to intercept. Orders are short and procedural. Resistance triggers immediate escalation. | If PCs submit: arrest and detention at the Local Guarding Troopers Station (holding cells). If PCs resist or attack: Troopers call for backup via shortwave devices; nearby patrols converge within minutes. A flying Combat Drone is likely to observe the disturbance, relay the incident, and engage the PCs directly. This marks the PCs as violent offenders and sharply limits future movement in Morningstar. |
