To: Professor Damiano Robido

Intelligence ensured me that you can be regarded as trustworthy and reliable and that necessary paperwork was filled out.
As far as I am informed you are a specialist regarding the synthesis of compounds which affect the vegetative nervous system. I was also told that you are willing to work for your nation, even if the mission might be ethically questionable. I honour this patriotic spirit and, on behalf of the Republic, I hereby submit to you the following orders:

Develop a potent ACh-Esterase inhibitor with physicochemical properties that make it applicable for military purposes. Ideally its synthesis is simple enough so that a regular pharmaceutical production line could be refitted in a matter of weeks to start producing said compound.

A laboratory adjusted to your needs for this mission has already been established inside the disclosed military facilities at the baracks of Veneto. Assistance personell has already been recruited and briefed. If you are in need of any more heads or rather specific head you have in mind, we will see what we can do to contact them and acquire them as an asset.

Your work will start on 03.03.5568, please be at the gate of the baracks at 12:00. An officer will welcome you and lead you to me to discuss further action. Your current position at the Belegejo Institute of Pharmaceutical Chemistry will be suspended under a pretence for the duration of the project. Your return to office is of course ensured once our cooperation is finished sucessfully.

Report on Progresses of Project "Relaksido"

To: Commissar Augusto Kraĉo
From:  Professor Damiano Robido


Following the last series of tests on a synthesis fraction, one compound has emerged as particularly promising. The substance, which currently bears the working title "compound C-623", has the following structure:



Toxicodynamics
In vitro experiments have shown that it binds to ACh-esterase irreversibly. C-623 posesses great affinitiy to the enzyme and the formed covalent bond between it and the enzyme is very stable. The resulting extremely potent parasympathicomimesis leads to unconciousness in mere seconds followed by death from asphyxiation due to paralysis of the respiratory muscles over the course of minutes. In vivo tests on rats have shown, that the substance is volatile and potent enough to be lethal via inhalation in small dosages

Toxikokinetics
Upon inhalation C-623 is quickly resorbed reaching a bio availability of around 60-70%. It's quickly distributed via the bloodstream into the nervous system. 

Remaining issues
Even if we are already able to produce the substance quantitatively in a targeted manner, there is still considerable scope for improving the process in terms of the resulting yield.
In view of the potential risk to personnel in the manufacturing process, a further research question is to what extent an in-situ synthesis of the substance could be realised. The idea is to produce two-component systems that contain the educts and would then only be activated in the field.

Orders concerning operation "Akraj Spronoj"

According to statements of Professor Robido C-623 is ready to enter mass production.

Synthesis plants have already been set up in the industrial area of Veneto. As a facade for our operations, Venkinfekton-MKEK Miperio Kamarido will be appointed administrator of a small, newly founded, state-owned company specializing in the production of spasmolytics. In order to reinforce the credibility of this decision, he was instructed over the last few months to repeatedly state that he had developed a strong interest in the symptomatic treatment of tetanus through his work at Venkinfekton.

Professor Robido will transfer any necessary information via a safe channel to Sro. Kamarido and will help getting the production started. After that he will return to his civilian occupation.

Generalo Laflanko is essential to the project as an expert in the fields of artillery and explosives. Together with a carefully recruited team of military engineers he will be responsible for processing the in-situ toxin into ammunition suitable for artillery use in a different facility owned by FkF Konstanco.

Orders on operation "Saltstango"

The current situation makes it necessary to increase our military presence at the border to the Jelbic Empire. All forces currently stationed in the province of Dirakio are therefore to be transferred near the border region. Their task is to set up defensive structures. In addition to Dirakio's garrison all currently available mobile artillery divisions are also ordered to take position near the border.

Settlements closer than 20km to the border strip will be evacuated by the military. Especially those primarily inhabited by ethnic Jelbics must be removed from the reach of Jelbic military force, so they cannot be used as assets against us. However officially it is for their protection of course.

Project "Reveno"

Your agency is hereby instructed to begin recruiting new agents. Any candidates must meet the following criteria:

-Native Yeudi speaker
-Beiteynuese citizenship or a right to be naturalized there

It is also desirable that candidates are members of a respected clan.
I do not have to explain any other qualities searched for in potential new assets, such as political views, to a person in your position.
I expect your status report as soon as there is any news on the matter, but no later than one month.

Thank you for your service to the cause

Security measures for your private trip to Jorgen Island


Estimata Sinjoro Direktoro,

it has already been brought to my attention that you are dissatisfied with the proposed extent of security measures for your private holiday in Jorgen Island.
Although I can of course understand your objections on a personal level, I would ask you again to take into account that as the highest official of Zardugal you must also be guarded in your private life. Especially in an unpredictable environment such as Jorgen Island, the need to protect you as the highest representative of the state outweighs your right to have an unsupervised vacation. The other members of the Executive Committee have already agreed with me on this and I am sure that the Supreme Council would do the same. For the sake of both of us, I ask you not to force me to have to obtain this confirmation officially.

Nevertheless, we will do our best to make your stay as pleasant as possible.

Yours sincerely
Roberto Gorĝoklaĝo

Director Surfungo went missing on Jorgen Island

Despite intensive surveillance, we seem to have lost the director. He seems to have done this by planting a double. The person was arrested and attempts were made to interrogate him. However, he only speaks Narik and currently appears to be intoxicated. We will report back as soon as we have any new information. In the meantime, other parts of the OSR will do their best to keep the matter under wraps and we ask you to limit the political damage. As a temporary narrative, we recommend speaking of an accident on Jorgen Island that led to the director being hospitalized, without reporting on any overly dramatic health condition.

Director Surfungo found

The Director has just been found in a casino. He seemed neglected and confused. After a short medical treatment he already recovered significantly and is expected to be able to return to Zardugal in two days. We recommend further medical examination upon arrival.

Condition for diplomatic Settlement of Conflicts of Interest

Dear colleague

I hereby inform you that it is an explicit interest of my nation to settle current disputes and to establish a productive relationship between the Triad Republic and Zardugal.

First of all, however, I feel compelled to make a request to you. According to OSR reports, a man named Desiderio Sepstono is still at large and unmolested on your territory. The extradition of this person to bring him to justice in Zardugal is essential for our continued cooperation.

We would be very grateful if you could comply with this request.

Yours sincerely,
Humulo Lupulo
