 | 🕵️ **PCs are Wanted and Undisguised (The [[Ticking Clock|Ticking Clock]] expires)** | If the PCs entered the Medical Station as their "1 Location Visit" before the town lockdown, their time runs out while standing in the waiting area. | __The Clock Expires:__ Guarding Troopers have tracked them here. Two Troopers step through the fabric curtain, blocking the exit. "Step away from the intake counter. Hands where we can see them." (See Phase 4 for resolution). |
-| 🚨 **PCs are wanted (or Disguised) and submit to the scan (The Ticking Clock starts here)** | The scanner flashes blue. The bot says, "Identity confirmed. Please wait for a triage assessment." A heavy magnetic lock engages on the front door with a loud clack. | __The Trap:__ The disguise fails against biometric scanning. The bot has silently notified the Guarding Troopers. PCs have roughly 1d4 minutes to hack the door or find a back exit before a patrol arrives to arrest them. (See Phase 4 for resolution). |

-| 💻 **PCs attempt to hack the scanner or spoof an ID** | The bot waits patiently while the PC interfaces with the terminal. | Requires an INT (Tech/Hacking) probe (DC 15). Success: The system accepts a fake alias, granting access. Failure: The system locks out, denying treatment. Critical Failure: The system flags a security breach and calls the Guarding Troopers. |

 | 🆔 **PCs are NOT Wanted and submit to the scan** | The Butler Bot pings green. "Identity confirmed. State your medical need." | PCs gain access to the treatment menu and inner bays. |
 | 🗣️ **PCs demand to speak to a human doctor** | The Butler Bot refuses the request. "The Chief Physician is currently managing automated surgical protocols. All intake is processed here." | Thorne will not come down. The PCs must deal with the bot. |

 | 💊 **PCs approach the window to fill a prescription** | The Pharmacy Butler Bot scans their faces to match the prescription forwarded by the Medical Station. "Prescription verified.

 ===== 6 | DM Notes =====
-  * **The Ticking Clock Expires Here:** If the PCs arrived in Morningstar wanted and undisguised, they cannot hide here. If they use the Medical Station as their "1 Location Visit", a patrol will catch up to them in the waiting area.
+  * **The [[Ticking Clock|Ticking Clock]] Expires Here:** If the PCs arrived in Morningstar wanted and undisguised, they cannot hide here. If they use the Medical Station as their "1 Location Visit", a patrol will catch up to them in the waiting area.
   * **The Station is a Trap for the Careless:** Do not warn Wanted or Disguised PCs about the biometric scanner. A physical disguise (hoods, fake beards) will not fool a DNA/Retinal scanner. If they put their thumb on the glass, lock the doors immediately. Morningstar's automated systems are designed to catch outlaws flawlessly.
   * **The Bureaucratic Loop:** Healing happens inside. Medicine is dispensed outside. Make the PCs walk back out into the rain to get their pills.
