 ====== Terminals ======
-The **terminals** are 1980s era text-only computers used throughout Emtanon. We're aware of three that are exposed on [[agent systems#as32|AS32]] as SSTV, allowing us to spy on them.
+**Terminals** are 1980s era text-only computers used throughout [[organizations#Emtanon]]. They appear in two aspects:
-===== Green terminal =====
+  * Monitoring [[#in-universe terminals]] to gain insight into the organization
+  * Interacting with the universe via remotely accessible terminals on the [[https://emtanon.com/portal/|Emtanon portal]]
+===== In-universe terminals =====
+These terminals are distinguished by unique display colors. All of them are used mainly for [[#iris]].

-Located in room 104 of the Emtanon HQ, this is an auxiliary terminal intended for visitors to the HQ. It runs on limited privileges, and some programs do not work due to missing configuration files.
+[[agent_systems#AS32]] provides [[wp>Slow-scan_television|SSTV]] of this terminal by dialing ''10#''. It is also possible to control it using the [[https://emtanon.com/portal/|Emtanon portal]]. Judging by reactions to signs of remote use, the HQ employees are unaware of this.
-In September 2023, two of our players were granted access to this terminal using the [[https://emtanon.com/portal/index.php|Emtanon portal]].

+This terminal is located at the Pacific command in Hilo, Hawaii.
-A terminal located in Hilo, Hawaii and used by [[characters#maria_peters|Maria]]. Access to this terminal was made available in December 2023 via the [[http://www.emtanon.com/portal|Emtanon portal]]. As of mid-December this terminal is not fully functional and only contains basic programs and Maria's ASCII art.
+It played a key role in [[:events:Operation Spice]] and [[events:FACILITY Redemption]], in both of which we impersonated the Pacific command. Later, after receiving strange iris messages, we deemed this terminal compromised. On February 21, 2024, it was taken offline by [[characters#AIR1]] and [[characters#MO5]] to hide evidence of our usage. The terminal was restored on June 7, 2024.
