That's right, You're now a Cop on The Moon in the Moon's only City: Lunagrad!
Lunagrad has a population of 60,000 people living in a series of 136 habitat modules (eight of which away from the main city, holding the main smelters and other industrial equipment which produces a lot of heat, three more are currently under construction attached to the main settlement) covering about 16 square kilometers. Most of the population is Canadian, Australian, Japanese, German and French background and rather enjoy living in their new Moon city. Most people speak English. It is self sustaining for food with hydroponic farms growing algae, rice, vegetables and similar with meat being grown from tisuse clusters. There are some parkland on the upper storeys of some of the habitat modules with grass, flowers and bamboo, but mostly people walk through grand hallways and corridors. Much of the internal architecture is done in a Stalinist Style, with lots of images of bold astronauts and workers building a settlement on the moon and celebrating the triumph of humanity in colonizing it. For getting around quickly there is a maglev train making a regular circuit around the city every 20 minutes. There is a small spaceport with a dozen landers which can send supplies and passengers up to a fleet of three transport ships. To keep order there are 128 officers in the LPS, which also has 32 support staff and twelve German Shepards named after the Apollo Program Astronauts.
Your standard police gear includes...
- The uniform described
- A Body Camera
- A LPS Phone
- A 50cm Truncheon
- A Stunner: an pistol like electrostatic non lethal weapon able to fire an arc of electricity in a straight line with the range of 20 meters that has the same effect that a taser has on the human nervous system with a six shot battery and four spare battreries. As the Lungagrad constitution bans the private ownership of firearms and everyone goes along with it this is more than sufficient for most cases. The LSP does have firearms, but these are kept locked up unless police chief Judy Kapour authorizes it with each gun having both a tracker and a remote deactivation feature.
- A pair of binders
- A mechanical pressure Spacesuit for EVAs
- A bike.
If you are married or have children they are on the moon as well. You have an either a 30 or 60 square meter apartment that is well apointed with three months worth of rent paid up. It is possible to send messages to earth and access the internet, but there is a 3 second delay due to the speed of light.
The standard Lunagrad currency is the Selene, which divides into 10 Tsuki. A single Selene will get you a can of soda, four Tsuki would get you tea and a rice doughnut, Eight will get you a vat pork burger with fries, 1,000 will get you a new computer (made with pride On The Moon), an 30 meter apartment will cost 1,200, a 60 square meter apartment costs 2,000, a wooden dinner chair costs 25,000 and 40,000 will get you a ticket on a shuttle going back to earth. Your salary gets you 60,000 Selene a Year after taxes and goes up by 7,500 with every rank you gain (which include Lance Constable, Constable, Senior Constable, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Inspector, Superintendent and Chief of Police). Your current account balance is 3,000 Selene.
