Non Player Character Player Headquarters

Gil Motoli is an unemployed crewman, down on his luck.

He knows his sole purpose in the game is to be a random crewman choice by the player, or even more randomly become crew to an NPC ship, either of which might get him killed quickly.

It's been a long time between assignments, and he's more desperate than he's ever been.

So when lady luck presents him with the perfect opportunity, he takes it.

He hasn't seen this plot before, and this time is his time.

Now he's his own boss, and can forge his own future.

But there's a problem.

The game isn't doing what it's supposed to be doing anymore.

And someone wants what he stole back.

The question is, who is the more dangerous?

The NPC trying to make a life for himself?

Or the player who's plot he's just wrecked?

Welcome to the space sandbox universe of Egosoft's X4 Foundations game. This is a prequel story to The Hunter Legacy series.
