Item

Image
Description	Someone extracted this file from a Midgard burrowing drone. The drones themselves are pretty new, but the file format seems standard enough.
Type	Stored Data
Use	You clear out the corrupted memory as well as possible, but there's not much left of the burrowing drone's memories. You go over the fragments. You extract some computer code from the remaining memory. It might be useful. Or You watch a few minutes of boring footage from the drone, but there's no real action.
Multi	You clear out the corrupted memory as well as possible, but there's not much left of the burrowing drone's memories. It's a good thing you have several files to cross-compare. You go over the fragments. And/or You extract some computer code from the remaining memory. It might be useful.
Effects	Gain filtering script or networking functions (from code message) Nothing (from boring footage message)

Notes

After using ~60 drone memories you can notice the mysterious drone signature with the following message:

MISSING

Or, if you are Etheric:

There's a few strange patterns in the code you can't quite explain. It's like a subtle signature. You've seen it across dozens of drones, but it jumps out at you now. You feel as though some great secret is hidden in those little quirks, but can't put your finger on it.

Or, if you are Etheric and know at least one instance of Burrowing Horror:

There's a few strange patterns in the code you can't quite explain. It's like a subtle signature. You've seen it across dozens of drones, but it jumps out at you now. It has a certain… strange rhythm to it, a pattern you can't quite recognize, like a map or the patterns made by rats crawling through walls.
