Below is a scene to start an adventure with. You are cordially invited
to write the adventure. The one I like best goes into a future issue
of Freelance Traveller.

***************
The manager, such as he is, of the local starport (nominally class C,
but more like a class D in reality) calls you, the captain of a free
trader landed here, to what passes as his office, near the entrance to
the extrality zone. When you get there, he gestures at a person
sitting bound and blindfolded in a chair, somewhat the worse for wear,
with an odd-looking hat-and-mask covering his head and face, and
explains...

"I found him like this at the gate, with just a note in a local
dialect that I can barely puzzle out if I'm lucky. The note seems to
say that he can't stay on the planet any more - but he's clearly a
native, so I may have misunderstood something. The note refers to him
as "Jabru", but it's not clear whether that's his name, or some sort
of descriptor. When I called the mayor of the nearest town to see if
he could tell me anything more, he took one look at my 'guest' and
literally spat the word "Jabru", said if he were seen anywhere off the
port, he'd be killed, and walked away. He won't take my calls now; his
assistant says he won't talk to me until "Jabru" - or maybe "the
Jabru" - is gone."

Take it from there, folks!
