I apologize in advance for any inaccuracies this adventure may bring up.

For later in the adventure:

To avoid confusion for myself and other readers, command lines will be preceded with "::", while character commands will be preceded by ">"

For example, if you want to type in "O 34.936.846.34", you would say

:: O 34.936.846.34

If you want the character to take up wizardry, you would say

> Take up wizardry

What?? Why would you try to hack yourself? You're trying to hack Nystoware, the most successful computer company to date. Either way, you would never forget your password.

Then again, it is probably a good idea to go through the password retrieval process.






Question is, where do you start?

First get a list of the workers of Nystoware that have proable remote access than try to find out their IPs by finding their NICks and inviting them to a Onlinegame.Than hack their Computers to find the password.

Too risky. They'd be on to you in a second, and they probably don't have time for games anyways.

Unless...







At least now you have some email accounts.

[Enthernal]

check all for some porn credit card numbers passwords.

Exactly which one do you want to sniff first?

Which packet should you investigate first?

An extreme sense of urgency washes over you, so you press [1] as fast as you can.

You jot down the string of numbers.




Something tells you helpdesk won't help you very much.

Go to ADBrault. He's personally given the decoding process.

Can't believe I didn't think of that earlier. Then again, there's probably more forks in the road from there.

How about a sniff at Adam's email?


Great! Looks like you got something important.

Which one first?

is probably the temporary password.

Uh-oh. Maybe you did something wrong...

Of course, it it must be the j; 116 stands for t, not j!


It works!


This is great! The closest you've gotten to your goal!


But you've only come so far. Better hurry, you're being traced...
