Masons

The Masons are the students in a course of masonry which is located in the room beside the OCESS at Ottawa Tech. Because their activities consist largely of building and demolishing brick walls, they produce large quantities of stone dust, which then osmoses under the connecting doors to fill Spacesim's facilities with dust. This dust is a major cause of electronics failure for Spacesim, and also has adverse health effects upon some astronauts, notably Nevin Hotson, who has a history of suffering from nosebleeds during missions.
