+
+      Welcome to the Ptarmigan Outpost. Your outpost is nestled into a small valley on the planet of Yssmoon, a planet seen by many as complex and mysterious because few people know everything about it.
+
+      But there are some basics about the Ptarmigan that are relatively easy to learn. Would you like to learn about how to maintain your Ptarmigan Outpost?
+
+      Great. Let's get started.
+
+      {"[color=gray][bold]Part One. General.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]You will notice that the Ptarmigan is very small compared to most space stations, with only one department head other than the Captain: the Quartermaster.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]You will also notice that it is very, very cold outside. It is very important to be careful not to jam the entrance doors, as this will let the cold air in.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]It is also very important not to let pets escape into the cold, including the central Courtyard.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]Most animals cannot survive temperatures of 213 degrees Kelvin for very long.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]Neither can you, of course. Remember to dress warmly.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]Now, while the atmosphere of Yssmoon is very cold, the liquid plasma rivers are very hot. Unprotected crew should avoid going near liquid plasma.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]Did you know that liquid plasma can burn you even without direct skin-to-plasma contact? It can.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]Remember to listen to your commanding officers, and to offer help where needed.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]Be careful going too far from the outpost, especially after dark and especially alone.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=gray]Used clothes can be deposited in the entrance hall laundry chute for cleaning.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716][bold]Part Two. Engineering.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]Now there is the role of your Engineering department. Engineering is a very important department.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]As you might imagine, the[/color] [color=#253E56]Electra[/color] [color=#717A55]Dynamics[/color] [color=#F7B900]Energy[/color] [color=#253E56]Neocorporation[/color] [color=#AE6716]knows a lot about Engineering.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]In Engineering, you are tasked with repairing damage, keeping the atmosphere habitable, and keeping the station powered.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]The Ptarmigan's power supply is particularly reliant on the resources mined by your Logistics department.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]The outpost is powered by a set of long-term basic generators which require minimal upkeep, as well as five P.A.C.M.A.N. generators, which require plasma sheets to generate power for the outpost.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]Do you know what P.A.C.M.A.N. stands for?[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]Great. Then we won't spend any more time on them.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]Note that every substation is equipped with a breaker switch that will shut off all the lights in the department.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]These switches should only be pulled in an emergency or when the crew is leaving the outpost.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]When it comes to construction work, due to terraforming complications, the Ptarmigan's foundations have become slightly unstable.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]This can make the behavior of electronic wiring or replacement floors a little unreliable without special assistance.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]Because Yssmoon was ruled unsuitable for full necrocosmic terraforming, your job as an Atmospheric Technician is very important.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]While Yssmoon's atmosphere is breathable, it frequently reaches temperatures below 220 degrees Kelvin, which is too cold for most species to exist comfortably.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]You will need to optimize your pumps and heating equipment to extract air from the atmosphere, heat it up by about 70 degrees, and pump it into the outpost.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]You might rarely observe bouts of unnaturally warm weather. Some say that this indicates an impending plasma gale. That is false. Plasma gales are not real.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#AE6716]If you do not think you can manage all of this, you might want to have a few extra space heaters built.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428][bold]Part Three. Logistics.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Now. You are probably thinking, 'with all that hard work Engineering is doing, there will not be any work left for me.' Well, don't worry. There *is* plenty of work left for you.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]The Ptarmigan has a terrestrial trade outpost nearby, maintained by our colleagues at[/color] [color=#B78EC3]Hawkmoon[/color][color=#765428]. Your orders will be deposited there.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Because it is a long walk, you may wish to contact your Roboticist for an Autonomous Power Loading Unit.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Salvage Specialists will need to do a lot of mining for plasma to power the outpost.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Sometimes, shuttle landing areas become cluttered with trees, snow, or even plasma leakage. These are harmless to our high-quality shuttlecraft, but impede foot traffic.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Salvage should aim to preemptively clear trees and snow from the evacuation landing area whenever possible.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Plasma appearing to shine through shuttle floors is a complex optical illusion and will not hurt shuttle passengers.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Additionally, should any threats arise, Salvage will need to use their equipment in cooperation with Security to solve the problem.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#765428]Be careful going off alone at night.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#37789B][bold]Part Four: Medical.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#37789B]The Medical department is always very important on any station, and the Ptarmigan is no different.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#37789B]You will very often be called upon to help treat injuries sustained from severe cold.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#37789B]Leporazine, aloxadone, and arcryox will prove particularly useful chemicals, since they are good for treating severe or even fatal cases of frostbite.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#37789B]Your cryonics systems are directly connected to the external atmosphere. This should speed up the cooling process, as it is very cold outside.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#37789B]While there is no Psychology office on the outpost, you can feel free to ask your Engineers for help building or repairing one.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3][bold]Part Five. Science.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]Did you know that the Ptarmigan was originally built to research the Gloamflower and its reactions to necrocosmic terraforming?[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]Well, anyways, Science is a very important department on the Ptarmigan.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]This outpost has very limited resources, so it is up to you to help construct the machinery that can lead your crew to success.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]The Gloamflower anomaly is an especially stable floraluminiscent-type anomaly. As you might imagine, the[/color] [color=#253E56]Electra[/color] [color=#717A55]Dynamics[/color] [color=#F7B900]Energy[/color] [color=#253E56]Neocorporation[/color] [color=#BE6BC3]knows a lot about anomalies.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]This anomaly can be used to generate a steady stream of useful technological data.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]The Gloamflower is particularly resistant to supercritical collapse, and even if destroyed, we have found it will grow back within a few weeks or less.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]Xenoarchaeology is the study of ancient or unknown artifacts. They are considered very mysterious because many people don't fully understand them.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#BE6BC3]Although Ptarmigan has recently added an excellent artifact facility, you might need to ask your engineers for help optimizing the atmospheric setup.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#639137][bold]Part Six. Service.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#639137]Keeping the Ptarmigan Outpost clean and comfortable is very important.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#639137]Luckily, the Outpost is very small. Of course, this means you will need to coordinate with other departments to be sure that you have everything you need.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#639137]The Ptarmigan Outpost's dining hall and courtyard will provide the primary hubs for leisure and social interactions.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#639137]Service Workers are expected to help deliver meals, drinks, Botany supplies, and laundry.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#639137]You can use the light switches to allow the crew to admire Yssmoon's beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Wow![/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#9C2020][bold]Part Seven. Security.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#9C2020]Yssmoon's remote location and inhospitable environment mean most ordinary threats are unlikely to reach your outpost.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#9C2020]But there are some threats which do reach your outpost sometimes.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#9C2020]Dangerous aliens called exomorphs, native to the outer reaches of space, will sometimes collide with Yssmoon.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#9C2020]Exomorphs do not seem to feel the cold, so you will have to dispose of them yourself.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#9C2020]Since your Armory is very small, you will want to coordinate with other departments to ensure that the outpost is adequately defended in the event of a potential external threat.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#9C2020]Due to an unusually high rate of mental health crises and aberrant crew activity, Security's role is expected to be more driven by detective work than on a normal station.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A][bold]Part Eight. Command.[/bold][/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]Command is in some ways the most important department, but also the most mysterious, because few people know everything about it.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]On the Ptarmigan Outpost, the Captain, Quartermaster, and Administrative Assistant will have to keep the crew organized and dedicated to a purpose.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]The Ptarmigan was originally built as a prospective necrocosmic outpost, but as the goals of terraforming were set aside, plasma mining and anomalous research have taken priority.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]The Ptarmigan also provides a sort of early alert system.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]Hostile incursions upon Yssmoon could threaten other properties such as Glacier Station. As the Ptarmigan is likely to be attacked first, you will be in an ideal position to dispatch a warning.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]You might think of yourself as a 'ptarmigan in the plasma mine'.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]Upon evacuation, you should ensure that all crew leave for the shuttle in an orderly fashion. The shuttle is located to the southwest of the station.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]In the event of a total whiteout blizzard, you will want to make sure crew can tell where to go.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]Taking cold-vulnerable animals to the evacuation shuttle should be avoided when possible unless Medical is prepared to treat their potential frostbite.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]Finally, due to atmospheric interference, digital clocks do not function properly on Yssmoon. Try to avoid anyone being left behind.[/color]"}
+
+      {"[color=#66244A]We hope that you are excited to start your Yssmoon adventure.[/color]"}
