Dangerous Science

Osiris came to Fortuna III to investigate the alien ruins, largely thought to be terraformers by an ancient civilization known as "Progenitors". Helping them may unlock the secrets of the planet's deadly storms and its exotic radiation. Or at least, it'll unlock access to more advanced Osiris gear and medical items.

Dangerous Science Part 1 "Another Prospector? I guess we could use the muscle. Show me you know how to handle yourself on the surface, then we'll talk." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Dangerous Science Part 2 "Not bad. I'm always in need of samples from the surface for our research. See if you can get me some of these." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Dangerous Science Part 3 "My team has seen an increase in Strider population in the Bright Sands Swamp; take down some of those creatures and return with the right samples." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Dangerous Science Part 4 "Brightcaps are a marvel, one of only a handful of organisms originating from Earth to mutate into something new. Get me fresh samples, and get rid of the Blast Ticks that feast on them while you're at it." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Dangerous Science Part 5 "We need to run some tests on how the creatures of Fortuna III identify each other, how they tell friend from foe. These samples should advance our research." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Field Research

You've met up to Sullivan's standards, a feat few manage. Now that you've proven yourself capable, he might send you to investigate some of the planet's old mysteries.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Field Research Part 1 "You've proven to be more capable than the average prospector, so this shouldn't be too complicated. Clear out any hostile fauna at our old Science Campus on Bright Sands, and get me some Optic Glass while you're down there. Remember to be careful with it." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Field Research Part 2 "The Lake in Bright Sands is home to a few very valuable endemic creatures, but the explosion in rattler and strider populations have all but pushed them out of their habitat. Cull their numbers, help return the balance." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Field Research Part 3 "Ah, you might appreciate this next job. Osiris Defense Systems R&D wants field data on our current weapons. As used on... real targets. I do hope you can figure out what to do." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Field Research Part 4 "One of our more 'hands-on' researchers forgot how to pack their tool bag, and another picked a fight with some thorn bushes and lost. Again. Anyways, stash some Med Kits and a Biological Sampler for them at these locations." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Field Research Part 5 "We sent another prospector for a simple milk run to the Vaccine Labs, and they've yet to return. I suspect due to the mass of creatures that've recently made the area their nest. Pacify the area, and while you're down there, get me some Pale Ivy." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Field Research Part 6 "The financial team is struggling to figure out what project to waste money on for next quarter. How do you fit in? Well, I need prospectors to demonstrate the use of different weapons, and the straw I picked for you says 'SMG'. Now, off you go." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Field Research Part 7 "You're really adept at shooting things, aren't you? Unfortunately, so are rattlers. Head to the Bright Sands Jungle and get me some rattler eyes, I want to know how they spot and track targets." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Field Research Part 8 "I plan on sending down a team to collect more old samples. Make sure they're well supplied, stash some Resin Guns in the Greens Prospect Office for them." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Stimulating Developments

Osiris specialize in medical tech, from surgical robots to powerful medicines and even healing nanites. Many of their advancements are only possible thanks to prospectors like you retrieving samples from the planet. Get Osiris what they need, and you'll be rewarded with access to new, stronger health stims.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Stimulating Developments Part 1 "This should interest you: we have a small team researching new, stronger health stims, but we're low on certain materials that were never restocked on station. Head to the Vaccine Labs and bring back some Medical Supplies." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Stimulating Developments Part 2 "There are a few more items from the surface our team needs, Prospector. Get what we need from this list if you want access to stronger stims." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Lost Knowledge

Now Dr. Sullivan's interest is piqued after you helped uncover forgotten research into the planet's extinct creatures and their unnatural anatomy. It seems he's realizing that the planet's mysteries won't unravel themselves without some hands-on "research" from prospectors like you.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Lost Knowledge Part 1 "Prospector, one of our researchers has noticed rattler hides are particularly susceptible to cell pattern changes based on their diets. Head to Nutrion Farms Processing and help us by getting the right samples." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Lost Knowledge Part 2 "We've received several reports of faulty weapons: jams, low power, misaligned sights... I need you to get me data on our weapons' performance against real targets. The old Favela in Crescent Falls should be a good test site." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Lost Knowledge Part 3 "I listened through parts of that crashed ship's flight recorder, and several conversations caught from the cabin had our man talking about 'Crystal Caverns' in relation to his research. Head there and see what you find, collect mineral and bio-samples from the area." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Explosive Delivery

The caverns you found are encased by a crystalline structure, far too strong for any of your weapons to break through. Sullivan believes there's a connection between them and the Progenitor terraforming tech. Explosives aren't the usual Osiris way, but they're a time-tested cheap way of opening holes in walls.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Explosive Delivery Part 1 "The notebook you brought back was most interesting, Prospector. Those Crystal Caverns appear to be made of a something similar to some of the Progenitor materials we've analyzed, and no one's ever managed to get past their walls and see what's inside. It's time to change that; get me some old explosives and I'll have a team blast their way in." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Laser Show

Dr. Fedotov wasn't impressed with the attempt at using explosives to break into the Crystal Cavern. His solution: a laser. At least he agrees with Dr. Sullivan on the importance of getting through the cavern's walls, even if they don't see eye to eye on much else.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Laser Show Part 1 "It appears Dr. Fedotov had already conferred with Dr. Farinha about how to break into the Crystal Caverns; it figures the man wouldn't write anything down and make our lives easy. He insists only a high powered laser drill can get through those walls, so you're to get us these items so we can build a prototype here." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Laser Show Part 2 "Progress is slower than I'd hoped. Korolev refuses to share schematics for their decommissioned Veltecite Laser Drill platforms, so we're forced to reinvent the wheel. No matter, an Osiris original will be far better, anyway. Get us these additional materials, Prospector." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Storm Rider

Fortuna III's storms are infamous, being one of the first signs of the lethal events that would force the evacuation of the planet. The creatures of Fortuna III, however, seem energized by them, literally. Help Osiris understand what's going on.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Storm Rider Part 1 "You've experienced one of the planet's famed Storms already, correct? Well if you haven't it's now's you're time to. I need you to collect a number of Glowy Brightcaps for me, the sort that can only be found during a Storm. Good luck and all that." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Storm Rider Part 2 "Ah, you're back already. An Osiris team will be retrieving old equipment from the Starport Warehouse soon, I need you to soften the area before they arrive." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Storm Rider Part 3 "We're interested in running more tests on Storm-affected samples, this time while as close to the planet as possible. Meaning on it. I need you to stash some Charged Spinal Bases on the surface for one of our more 'adventurous' researchers to work with." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

The Needs of the One

Getting Dr. Fedotov out of cryo may have been more trouble than its worth. After a (justified) tirade against Dr. Sullivan for not rescuing him sooner, he's refusing to speak to anyone in person until a series of curious demands are met. It'll be best to keep him content, if only for his new assistant's sake.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
The Needs of the One Part 1 "Dr. Fedotov is... a character. He's requested an office with a garden and refuses to speak with anyone on his team until he gets it. Get me these items so we can just get this over with." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
The Needs of the One Part 2 "All right, now to get some real work done again. Apparently Waterweeds are poisonous to striders; get me some fresh samples of each, there might be something useful to learn here." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
The Needs of the One Part 3 "You've encountered Marauders on the surface, right? Fascinating creatures, I'd love to study a live specimen one day... In any case, go kill some and bring back their bone plates so we can advance our research." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
The Needs of the One Part 4 "The good Dr. Fedotov is trying my patience with his absurd requests. You're to take down some of your rival Prospectors... and bring back some Dustblooms. I swear, if I see them as part of his little 'nature reserve'..." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Everything is Crystals

The new laser cannon is a beast more suited as a military weapon than a mining tool, and requires far more power than any laser drill on Prospect Station has access to. Make sure Osiris gets what it needs to get it working.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Everything is Crystals Part 1 "It's time to start testing our new anti-crystal laser, but first, it needs a power source. Retrieve Veltecite for me, Prospector, nothing else will do." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Everything is Crystals Part 2 "Yes, this should be sufficient. Focus Crystals have an internal structure similar to that of the cavern walls; retrieve a few samples for us, and some extra lab kit while you're at it." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Everything is Crystals Part 3 "Our laser cannon has proven to be... 'hazardous' to test on the station. We've developed a small portable version for further tests. Clear out the Pinnacle labs of hostile fauna and stash some Pure Focus Crystals there; a field research team will be down for further tests once you're done." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Path to Strong Medkits

The advancements in medical technology continue, partly thanks the samples you've collected. Now, while emergency medical procedures aren't something you should be practicing on the surface of an alien planet, assisting Osiris in developing improved med kits may improve the chances of a good outcome when you're forced to.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Path to Strong Medkits Part 1 "We're continuing to research better ways to keep prospectors like you alive on the planet, so I'm sure this interests you. Get me these materials and you'll be among the first to carry our new Strong Medkits." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Path to Strong Medkits Part 2 "The chemical properties of Fortuna III's flora and fauna is truly fascinating... one would expect it to be completely foreign to our own, yet it's so similar! Oh, right; we still need a few more items, Prospector." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Path to Strong Medkits Part 3 "We have reason to believe Korolev has a mole and is trying to steal our work on these Medkits and put them to market before we do; I've seeded rumors to different members of my team, if Korolev acts on them I'll know who the leak is. Stash these old medicines at the Waterfall Labs in Bright Sands; if Korolev sends an agent to retrieve them, I'll have my man." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Building a better Death Ray

The initial plan to repurpose one of Korolev's old veltecite mobile drilling platforms fell through, and not just because of Korolev's uncooperative behavior. The laser cannon will have to be operated from space; help Osiris fix up an old survey satellite in order to have the cannon fire from low orbit.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Building a better Death Ray Part 1 "Our recent tests have made it quite apparent our anti-crystal laser cannot be safely operated in atmosphere, unlike Korolev's crude designs. We'll need to mount the device on a repurposed low-orbit satellite to operate it. Retrieve these materials, they should improve booster fuel efficiency enough to handle the laser's mass." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Building a better Death Ray Part 2 "Ah yes, I forgot to mention... we've made some adjustments to account for the increased operational range required; get me a Veltecite heart and some samples from storm-charged creatures, it should be enough to take our device to peak performance." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Satellite Master

Getting what is basically a an orbital beam cannon into an orbit around Fortuna III isn't as easy as it first seemed. Help Osiris ensure their new satellite gets operational, and make sure the other factions don't catch wind about what's going on; whatever is past those cavern walls, only Osiris could fully understand.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Satellite Master Part 1 "It's almost time to get our satellite into orbit. Hack into the surface Uplink network, get us all the data we need to keep the satellite on-target." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Satellite Master Part 2 "It's been brought to my attention that orbital weapons are banned in this system, and that our satellite may be considered a weapon, what with its proven ability to vaporize sever- Well, in any case, I need you to get back into the Uplink network, get me data on old colonial satellites still in orbit; we should be able to spoof an ID off one to use for our own project." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Satellite Master Part 3 "It appears that tricking the network to accept our satellite as legitimate is a more involved process than I had been lead to believe. A team of specialists will be heading to the surface soon to get the job done, make sure they have the tools they need stashed nearby by the time they arrive." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Combat Ready

Stims aren't recommended for more than life or death emergencies, sometimes leading to more complications then the initial injury or simply not acting fast enough to make a difference. Osiris thinks it can fix at least one of those problems, if you can help them find the ingredients they need.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Combat Ready Part 1 "Research into Fortuna III's biosphere has so much potential, yet there's so little interest by any other parties! Everyone needs immediate results! Well then, let's show them results! Get me tissue samples from a Crusher, studying their regenerative properties should allow us to develop even stronger health stims!" Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Combat Ready Part 2 "Excellent work, I imagine the donor didn't pose too much of a challenge for you. Now, my team will need some additional supplies; here's a list." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Combat Ready Part 3 "Initial trials have proven to be... disappointing. The near-immediate healing process works flawlessly, as I predicted, but it appears to be excruciatingly painful. Retrieve some Dustblooms for me, Prospector; their analgesic properties should be just what we need. And then you can test the first batch yourself!" Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Orbital Repairs

Warm up tests on the Orbital Cannon have uncovered a serious accuracy issue that needs to be resolved ASAP. The problem is, the satellite is already in orbit, and recalling it would raise questions about its true purpose. You'll need to help Osiris develop a hotfix.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Orbital Repairs Part 1 "Target calibration on our satellite is off; it was within acceptable parameters in our original designs, but wasn't accounted for when we switched to an orbital platform. I'm sending a team down to Pinnacle Labs for telemetry, make sure they have what they need, and clear the area of hostile creatures." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Orbital Repairs Part 2 "The ICA has been following up on all our recent 'weapons' research on station and gotten curious about the lack of tangible results. Head to the surface and perform some 'tests' with Osiris gear on some unwilling participants, it should distract them for long enough to get our satellite fully operational." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Orbital Repairs Part 3 "The worst outcome is of course the most likely. The satellite will need to be modified while in orbit and part of the outer casing replaced. Retrieve these materials, they should be light yet durable enough to do the job." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
Orbital Repairs Part 4 "The satellite's orbit is too low for our technicians to safely operate at due to all the TEF radiation from the planet. We'll need to construct specialized EVA suits; a mesh made from crusher hide to envelop them might be enough to keep our people safe. For a short while, anyway." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

Breaking and Entering

Everything is ready to fire up that Orbital Cannon! You'll need to place a beacon at the right location for the satellite to lock on to the cavern entrance, then hope those calibrations fixes worked out. Once the cavern opens up, be quick to get in and explore them; anything you find inside may be of immense importance for Osiris.

Name Description Tasks Rewards
Breaking and Entering Part 1 "It's time! Head to the Crystal Caverns' entrance and place the Orbital Cannon Beacon; once its finally served its purpose, search the caverns and retrieve whatever you find. We might finally have found a path to the internals of the planet's terraformers!" Template:ReputationTemplate:Price

UNIQUE MISSIONS Part 2 "Remember those Old Bones you brought back earlier? There's a mystery there, something artificial. I need you to head to the Extinct Creatures lab in Crescent Falls and retrieve a Warden Skull, it might have the answers I seek." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
UNIQUE MISSIONS Part 3 "I've been looking into everyone that worked at the Extinct Creatures lab, and it appears Dr. Farinha, its head of the operations, was lost when the ship getting him and his lab equipment off planet crashed. Check the ship's debris in the Bright Sands' Jungle, something might have survived the impact." Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
UNIQUE MISSIONS Part 4 "It'll take some time to run tests on these. In the meantime, it seems Dr. Farinha survived the crash, though he never made it off planet. From what I gathered he might have sought shelter in this area... Head there and search for any more clues on his whereabouts, any research he carried with him would be of great value!" Template:ReputationTemplate:Price
UNIQUE MISSIONS Part 5 "That crystal structure enveloping the caverns is far more resistant than I thought imaginable, the team was barely able to scratch it. I was curious about whether this moment would come... It's time wake up Dr. Fedotov. He was reportedly an acerbic firebrand in Osiris, and the best materials researcher the world has ever seen. Stayed on the surface to work for as long as possible, then put himself in a cryochamber when it became too late to evacuate safely. Just another problem I inherited when taking this position..."
