Lotus/resistance: You awaken to find yourself strapped in a chair surrounded by four blank durasteel walls. In front of you is a table, beyond which is a chair. It begins to dawn on you that somehow you have been captured by agents of the Inquisition. The lighting is focused over you; the rest of the room is dark. You hear a door open and footsteps entering the room. You see a man pull the chair back and sit down; he lays his hands on the table and begins the interrogation.

Inquisition: You awaken to find yourself chained to a crude looking duraplast board, you can feel pain in your face, you jaw is bruised and your nose feels broken. You can taste blood in your mouth so you spit it out. Around you are the distinct interior walls of a simple hut. Where the building is located, you have no idea. You have no memory of how you came to be in this situation. The simple wooden door to the hut opens before you and in walks a robed man; you instantly recognise them as a member of the accursed Clan Odan-Urr. The realisation of what is happening suddenly hits you; you have been captured by the Lotus.

Suggested format You have been captured by those you loath the most. You are free to explore the reasons behind your capture if you wish. How does your character react to their interrogation session(s)? Do they break and tell their captures everything or are they solid like a rock? Are you able to escape from your imprisonment, or are you trapped, hoping that your comrades will rescue you?
