Mod is dividing this into two answers, an IC one and an OOC one.
IC: SUPERBIA is a remarkably honest creation. It will not present itself in "human form", and it will not try to get characters to agree to false pretenses. SUPERBIA is either not capable of manipulation, or it has calculated that coerced people do not make good Privateers in the long-term. It can, however, leave out the specifics, especially if they are highly inconvenient. For example, SUPERBIA may state that it will be teleporting your character to its location. This can happen after the character has due time to prepare, immediately after the character agrees, or the following morning in the middle of enjoying their coffee.
OOC: Mod is peeling back the curtain to hopefully provide more elaboration. Space Race is not intended to be a "jamjar" game where characters are being held against their own will. Characters may regret the decision to say yes, especially when the going gets rough, but if the player's imagined backstory would leave the character with "I want to go home" as their primary ingame motivation, Mod advises one to reconsider.
