General

  • Remarkably skilled parcel carrier within the city.
  • But packages have been getting slogged down in the sending.
  • Violet has asked us to dig in a bit.

Services

Speeds

  • Priority Express - For a price, expect your parcel to be delivered within 30 to 60 minutes, with 99.9% reliability.
  • Priority - Delivery with Priority service occurs within one to two hours.
  • Standard - For those who aren't a hurry and can wait that absurdly long duration of three to five hours for delivery.

Size and Shape

  • Normal - No dimension >50cm, must be cuboid
  • Large - One or more dimensions >50cm, must be cuboid
  • Tube - Cylinder
  • Irregular - Anything not fitting the above

Weight

  • Must be entered correctly to insure optimum delivery. On the testing system, must be from 1 and 5000 grans

Additional Extras

  • Insurance - Insure the contents of the parcel
  • Signature required - Make sure someone signs for the parcel, but please inform recipient in advance
  • Delivery confirmation - Inform your key when delivery arrived
  • Fragile handling - for delicate, electromagnetically sensitive, or poorly-packed items

Demonstration System

Violet asked us to dig into the Post Office's delays. The demonstration system was found by emailing Ralph Kerrigan (who's name was found on a letter to the Sentinel)

His reply lead to the Demonstration System, which is used to send tracer packages to allow clients to check the speed of the postal system.

Locations you can send stuff to


Season 2, Chapter: Hot Water

Season 2 started out with a request by Violet to investigate her plumbing issues, and has lead us to pick up on a weird trail, currently in progress. When the third power issues warnings about you, you know you are in Hot Water.
