This room was the former head-of-household’s home office space. NOTE: Use of the pneumatic travel tube to exit this room has an increased (1d7+4) chance (results 5-7 on the Pneumatic Travel Tube Destination table) of taking anyone using it to the radioactive ruins of Interstellar Instruments, Inc.

This smaller room contains another whoosh-tube and is dominated by a large artifact next to the window bay. The artifact is shaped like a table with a padded chair built into it. It is encrusted with more tiny rocks and gems than you can count, though all seem dark and silent. The room is remarkably clean and fresh-smelling. There’s a cup of steaming umbra liquid sitting on the strange table-chair, and an attractive, flowering plant sitting in a pot next to it.

Ro-Z has kept this room in immaculate condition for over 5,000 years, and the Auto-Mat built into the desk serves up a steaming hot cup of Vena-Cava Hyper-StimTM drink each morning for a resident who never arrives. The well-tended houseplant “Bonnie” has mutated over the centuries, in part, on a steady diet of this stuff.
Bonnie (Mutant Plant) will not attack the PCs unless molested or anyone picks up or attempts to drink the stim drink. At that time, her central flower blossoms revealing a huge eye and 3 furred tentacles with snapping mouths that snake out and attempt to attach to any available targets. If killed and her body searched, there is a blue com badge (household) in Bonnie’s pot that will open all un-sealed doors in the sky tower and grant a +4 bonus to AI recognition for Ro-Z (area C-5) and N-Ree (area C-12).
Vena-Cava Hyper-Stim^TM drink: Grants imbiber 2 attacks per round (duration 1 hour), and one random mental mutation unless pure strain human (duration permanent; roll for mutation).
Com badge (Household): DC 13; Communicates with other com badges; Opens portals that require household authority; +4 AI recognition roll (household AIs only). The large artifact present is the former resident’s AI work- station (CM 10). Activating it will not be easy for the PCs, but should they succeed, three floating rectangles of light will appear in the air above the desk-like structure. Each holographic screen will depict a different scene. Roll a random depth number and describe the scene.
