Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Competitors (Конкуренты, Konkurenty) is a Science Fiction novel by the popular Russian sci-fi and fantasy author Sergey Lukyanenko. The novel starts in modern-day Moscow involving a freelance journalist named Valentin Safonov and then diverges into two parallel storylines: one continues in Moscow, and the other picks up on a Space Station in an unknown star system. The chapters alternate the perspective of the protagonist, who has been duplicated far away from home by means of unknown alien technology. Both versions of the protagonist seek to discover what is going on and why people are being sent to live and die far from Earth with no way back.Valentin is told to log-on to www.starquake.ru to keep tabs on his duplicate in space, which is a Real Life Flash-based MMORPG. | |

Death Is Cheap | |
| Competitors / int_37fcf16 | comment |
Due to the largely lawless nature of space, claim jumping is frequent, and a friend of Lena's mentions casually incinerating a miner who happened to be mining an asteroid she took a liking to (a year after he found it) and regrets that the valuable asteroid was also destroyed in the process. | |

Air-Vent Passageway | |
| Competitors / int_5b19cc1b | comment |
Air-Vent Passageway: Averted. When Space!Valentin and Space!Lena are locked in a room on the Platform, Valentin suggests escaping using a vent. Lena laughs, saying he's been watching too many movies. The vents in the room are no more than a foot wide. Also, when Valentin suggests setting off the fire alarm, Lena calmly lets him know that the automatic procedure in this case is to isolate the room and vent the atmosphere. | |

Asteroid Miners | |
| Competitors / int_83364794 | comment |
Asteroid Miners: One of the ways of making money in space is by finding resource-rich asteroids and mining them for resources using a tool called a "digger". The resources can be sold on the Platform or on colonies for use in Matter Replicators.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Artificial Gravity | |
| Competitors / int_ae69516f | comment |
Artificial Gravity: The Platform and all ships are equipped with artificial gravity generators, which also compensate for inertia. They are deliberately turned down slightly in order for the pilot to feel a tiny fraction of the G-forces to aid in piloting. The Platform's field actually extends a little beyond the external hull, which results in a ring of garbage "orbiting" the station. | |

Action Girl | |
| Competitors / int_dae5c997 | comment |
Action Girl: Lena (AKA Driver) is definitely not a delicate flower. Back on Earth, she is a taxi driver (not a job for the faint of heart). In space, she is a tough-as-nails fighter pilot. | |
