"Good morning, Engineer Hugo Packagebord! Have a good bordlin' shift! If you need assistance, just call me, VIRA!"
Ah, yes, the Virtual Integrated Robotic Automaton, just one of the cartetakers of this big ship. The others are the few woken up from suspended animation, working in shifts. Which you are one of them.

You start to remember how exactly you got here. Back in Bordia Prime, you just finished your high education when you won that national sweepstakes. "Be one of the lucky pioneers colonizing Borgas IV! Congratulations!" the prize says, and since you always wondered about new life in new worlds, you immediately accepted.
They threw you into engineering training, appointed you a shift due to your excellent grades, and put you in that cryotube... and here you are. You are sure that the other folks in the tubes are fellow sweepstake winners. You don't know them that much though.

"Vira? Where is the previous shift?" you ask as you make your way to the living quarters.
"My records indicate that they have successfully de-cryoed a couple of months ago. I do not know what happened afterwards, a power surge erased my records from a month ago."
Well, that's... something. As you arrive at the lounge area you- Oh man, someone broke the snackbar machine!
The left door is to the personal sleeping pods, while the right door is to the entertainment room. To the left is more lounge and a door to the bathroom. Going even further left should make you reach your sector's maintenance room.

Rolled 22

>>29102155
Very suspicious. There's almost certainly some type of sabotage or invasion. Locate the people in the current shift (by searching or just asking VIRA) to warn them, then investigate whatever area of the ship could be used to trigger the power surge that wiped her records. But be cautious while you're doing it.

Such gross dismemberment of machinery irks you! Your engineer background quickly kicks in, putting back the damaged machine almost as good as new! Your tools can't fix the screen, but hey, at least it works now. For your efforts, you are rewarded with what snacks remain in the machine, which is 4 C-bars. Well, VIRA should automatically restock it soon, anyways.
In any case, now you can rest easy for the next four days, because one C-bar is good enough to keep your bordly physique for a day!

Based on the bord-fist-sized dent on the cover that you fixed, one of the crew might have been behind that. You look around in the sleeping quarters, at least a couple of them have been used, at least. You remember that your own stuff might be still in the cargo bay.
"Vira, can you locate where the previous shift is now?"
"Sorry Hugo, several of my sensors are also down, including shipwide biological sensors."
Well things get better and better already.
>What now? Getting to Vira's mainframe meant going to the bridge maintenance room, which is a long walk from here. Or we could go and see if any of the cryotubes are empty, which is another long walk through all 8 cryo-sectors. You're in cryo-sector 5 currently.

Creepy eyes in the vents. There's very likely a hostile biological presence, though I'm not sure whether it's an alien or a saboteur.
