UESC Marathon: Difference between revisions

The player character, who boarded the Marathon while under fire from the Pfhor scout ship [[Boomer|Sfiera]], came under Leela's command. The two of them got to work solidifying defenses, saving civilians and sending a distress beacon back to Earth. However, by Leela's own estimation, the message would take 92 years to reach Sol.

Leela was unable to weather the cyber attacks by the S'pht and fell out of contact. The player character was then kidnapped by Durandal himself. He revealed that he was the one who lured the Aliens to the colony as reprisal for humanity's transgressions against him. Specifically, the torturous experiments conducted by Bernard Strauss on him. However, Durandal had not allied himself with the aliens. He planned to use hijack their FTL capable ship to explore the universe before its eventual end.<ref name="Tychorant"/>

The player character managed to destroy the [[Pfhor cyborg|Pfhor control system]] holding the S'pht in line, and the newly freed slaves aided the humans in repelling the Pfhor.

With the S'pht no longer attacking the Marathon's systems, Leela came back online. She quickly regains control of the situation and sends the player character to secure the last few holdouts of Pfhor aboard the ship.

In the chaos, Durandal seized the Pfhor scout ship for himself. Before leaving with his new S'pht allies, he teleports the player character and an unknown number of colonists into stasis chambers for later usage.
