PERSON-FIRST RULE

A formulation explains a point of view; it does not become omniscient truth.

This map keeps role, access, loyalty, distress, competence, relationship, evidence, and temporary state separate. A different source set may describe the same person differently without erasing this human perspective.

OPERATIONS AS PRESSURE SYSTEMS

Objectives test identity, loyalty, trust, and moral boundaries.

An operation continues after the objective through consequences for relationships, status, secrecy, grief, guilt, access, and recovery.

ACTIVE / PROTECTIVE

BLACK RELAY

Teresa Ibarra survived an ambush and later encountered genuine surveillance. Trauma reminders and secondary psychotic features now overlap with a live tail.

Stakes
A burned courier network, two competing surveillance teams, and Teresa’s control over her own route history.
Player objective
Verify the current threat without forcing Teresa onto the route again or treating every cue as operational.
See how this operation pressures people

ACTIVE

The Thirty-Minute Route

A simple pharmacy transfer takes thirty minutes and crosses five camera zones, two public areas, and one corridor absent from the map.

Stakes
Tobias’s cut-out role, Marek’s route discipline, and the identity of a hidden watcher.
Player objective
Walk the route, identify surveillance handoffs, and deliver a package without revealing its real destination.

COMPETING FORMULATIONS

Other systems describe the same person differently.

The human map remains one perspective. Institutional and compartmented formulations are compared without silently replacing it.

INSTITUTIONAL

Institutional behavioral formulation

Records emphasize observable behavior, role demands, and immediate safety. Marek Dusan should not be judged solely by the institution’s preferred explanation of contested events.

Institutional language can describe behavior but cannot establish motive, allegiance, or the truth of an unusual claim.
HUMAN

Human formulation

Marek has spent so long surviving observation that privacy feels like negligence. He wants to protect couriers without teaching them to live inside his level of suspicion.

This formulation preserves ordinary needs, relationships, competence, and contradiction rather than turning distress or tradecraft into a total identity.
