Emergence Event: Captain Laris Latee is an expansion for Emergence Event released in 2016. It was designed by Kenny Sims and its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Hand Management, and Take That.
Laris Latee is exceptionally good at uncovering the secrets of the galaxy. Ka-neetian scientists have been cataloging Discoveries for quite some time from their planet surface and recognize their true nature. In game terms this is reflected by her ability to draw 2 Discovery tiles and choose which one to place for each Discovery revealed by exploring a new galaxy tile. Discoveries also have their required target numbers reduced by 1 for her with the ship's Class 3 Astrolab. In addition to these significant bonuses to Discoveries, many of her Captain Powers and her Open Space card revolve around manipulating Discoveries, either for her, or her opponents.
