Traveller Probo -
The Story so far …
The Transporter. It was always about the Transporter.
And how it was developed was largely accidental.
But isn’t that the way? A quick check through Google, and you can easily build a list of world-changing accidental inventions. There’s potato chips, Coca-Cola, the pacemaker, the Slinky, microwave ovens, LSD, and so many more. Some we could have lived without; others arguably have made the world a more liveable place.
But the Transporter?
A group of research candidates funded by a global security company, Helguard Security, were to develop a next-generation passenger baggage scanner. Thanks to an unsteady intercession, their research produced something vastly different.
What does one do with technology that, instead of scanning airline baggage, sends an individual 1000 years into the past?
As soon as the Transporter became publicly known, intense debate about what to do with it intensified into an audacious research project suggested by eminent British academic and historian Professor Adrian Taylor. Why not use the Transporter for historical research?
But where? And who to send?
Several nations that had participated in the development of the Transporter were interested enough to supply the services of those most efficient in surviving the most trying times, namely members of their military’s Special Forces. Dubbed ‘Saxon Traveller’, none expected the project to succeed. Yet, a team of ten Special Forces candidates were trained in the languages and skills that would assist them in integrating into the society of 11th Century Saxon Aengland. But this was a perilous time when English history was experiencing a period of significant change.
Australian SAS Sergeant Michael Hunter was sent to the 11th Century and eventually won the local community’s trust and the heart of one in particular. Following a battle with invading Vikings, on which he draws on the resources of his 21st Century Traveller colleagues, he returns to the present day.
He eventually resumes the life of a modern researcher in Anglo Saxon times.
The question is: what is next for the Transporter and Michael Hunter?
