[Crit Happens!] Crit Happens: The Lost Missions (Vault of the Black Star)

Crit Happens: The Lost Missions — Episode 1: Vault of the Black StarWelcome to The Lost Missions — a classified simulation within the Syndicate archives. Agents volunteer for these experimental reruns, testing old contracts and discarded session blueprints buried deep in the Oathbinder’s Ledger.The first reconstruction, Vault of the Black Star, drops the team into the frozen abyss of the Still Cold. Their mission: recover a crystalline key fragment from a long-sealed prison once used to contain The Archivist Below, an entity that devours memory and identity.But this isn’t a real deployment — or so the Overseers claim. Each simulation rewinds fragments of past missions to test new tactics, altered outcomes, and impossible odds. Every variable is recorded. Every death analyzed. Every success erased.The question is no longer if they survive, but what the simulation remembers when it’s over.
