Re: 101 fun things to find in a Sci Fi cargo crate
261... has anyone suggested an ornate puzzle box?
It is one thing to suspend your disbelief. It is another thing entirely to hang it by the neck until dead.
Verisimilitude -- n, the appearance or semblance of truth, likelihood, or probability.
The concern is not realism in speculative fiction, but rather the sense that a setting or story could be real, fostered by internal consistency and coherence.

Re: 101 fun things to find in a Sci Fi cargo crate
282. The PCs never find out; any attempts to open the box are countered almost immediately by a force greater than anything the PCs can do to counteract, and the lid is slammed shut again. Also, the box is completely opaque to any sensors they can bring to bear on it.
283. The DeLorean from the Back to the Future movies, but with a handwritten note reading 'I.O.U. 1 Flux Capacitor' where the Flux Capacitor should be. It is otherwise functional, including the flight circuits and the Mr. Fusion reactor.

Re: 101 fun things to find in a Sci Fi cargo crate
293. 1,000 Gandalf action figures (from the Peter Jackson films); all of them are missing the pointy hat, despite the toys being NIB and the packaging shows no signs at all of tampering.
294. a diverse and sundry assortment of car parts; knowledgeable individuals might discern a functioning 1967 Chevrolet Impala can be assembled from the parts in the crate... IF a factory assembly manual can be found (very difficult)
295. two coffins; the cargo manifest will show they are for a D. Winchester and S. Winchester. If opened, the coffins are each found to contain a human skeleton which has obviously been burned, as well as trace amounts of a white, granular substance which lab tests will show to be sodium chloride crystals.MeanPeople Suck

296: A recording that shows that the interplanetary government conducted covert tests of an aggression-reducing chemical on the general public of a small colony world; the chemical caused most of the colonists to lay down and die as if they hadd OD'd on a narcotic, but turned a small population of survivors into hyperaggressive cannibals instead.
