A contract card that surfaces on the mission board when the player launches from the DELPHI hub. It pairs the planet’s identity with a hiring faction, a positively-framed objective, a difficulty tier, and an in-fiction payout line. Selecting the card commits the player to a run on DELPHI with the objective tuning and extraction-timer baked into the posting.

EXTRACT-CANDIDATE
“Commission Purse” and “Prototype Drive Core” are payout-line tokens that are not yet defined as concrete reward entities anywhere else in the data. If they later resolve to first-class drop tables, extract a gameplay/rewards/commission-purse and gameplay/rewards/prototype-drive-core page.
“Speedway Commission” appears as a hiring faction on two postings (DELPHI and the Speedway planet posting). If factions get their own pages, extract a gameplay/factions/speedway-commission page.
“Race Director V. Lund” is an in-fiction NPC poster. If posters become a tracked entity (e.g. recurring quest-givers), extract a gameplay/npcs/race-director-v-lund page.
