Who: Ravi Chakrabarti and YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: HS Marsiva
When: Pre-shuffle!

[When Ravi wakes up in a completely unfamiliar bunk, his first thought is that he's been whisked back to the zombie camp with the unmentionable name and is about to have a bevy of overenthusiastic, purple gorilla nurses descend upon him. But as the minutes tick by uneventfully, he decides to brave the unknown to explore his surroundings and - despite the perplexities of his current situation - is visibly delighted by everything he sees. When he finally gets the hang of the communicator, his hands are actually shaking from the excitement of it all, making his image a little blurry onscreen.]

Apparently I'm in space! Which is actually pretty bloody brilliant! It's a definite upgrade from my previous zombie camp escapade, let me tell you, but I have so many questions!

[He looks like he's about to start rambling for hours on end, but manages to visibly reel himself in first. It's probably best to start with the basics.]

I'm Dr. Ravi Chakrabarti and I suppose this makes me a new member of this fleet, if there is a fleet. Which I'm pretty sure there is since I'm just about one hundred percent certain I could see other ships from the viewing area.

[A huge grin breaks out over his face as he mentally processes this again.]

I'm part of a fleet and I'm broadcasting in space! I mean, look, I'm obviously not thrilled about being displaced from home again, but if it has to happen, at least I'm on an actual, honest-to-God spaceship! And if anyone can provide some information on why exactly I'm in space, I'd be much obliged. Don't get me wrong, I could only have ever dreamed about all this robotic medical equipment in the last place, but at least the gorilla nursing staff was a bit more communicative.

Give me a minute...

1. It was colourful.

2. You could breathe in it.

3. There was gravity, but which direction it worked in was unpredictable.

4. There were fish.

Positive.

My reality was made from chaos energy. It didn't have to make sense.

I don't know much about it. Nobody does.

My understanding is that it's an unpredictable, self-generating form of energy that was maybe harnessed for a war effort in ancient times? I think the only thing capable of containing and controlling it was a specific kind of emerald found on Mobius. Even then, it wasn't a sure thing. They were pretty easy to destabilise.

The Special Zone, where I'm from, was a dimension created from the waste energy the Emeralds produced when they became unstable.

Not these ones. I guess there was just something special about them.

Anyway, those chaos-infused emeralds are easily some of the most dangerous things I know of. I actually owned one for a while, but not anymore by the looks of it.
