Control Story Summary
Unknown Caller
Emily suggested that Jesse first locates an important Object of Power known as the Hotline. This is a special phone that directors use to contact the mysterious Board which aided Jesse before.
Upon his death, Trench somehow ascended to the Board and is trying to help Jesse. His knowledge will be helpful in figuring out how to stop the Hiss.
Along the way, though, Jesse encounters heavy resistance from the Hiss, including the former head of communications Alberto Tommasi. Regardless of how high up in the FBC food chain they were, if they weren’t wearing an HRA device, they are now corrupted by the Hiss.
Jesse discovers another Object of Power, a Floppy Disc, which allows her to Launch debris around. Throughout the story of Control, Jesse will encounter more Objects of Power which will allow her to do things such as levitate and control minds once she has Board approval by proving herself in the Astral Plane.
Jesse tries to use her new powers to help save the Hiss corrupted people, but the process is too much for the human mind to stand. Jesse can push back the Hiss, but humans without an HRA are lost once corrupted.
Jesse is able to fight her way to the Hotline and re-establish the connection the Board and Trench.
