Operation Shadow Sabre

"Thank you, Zero-Two. Now, I'm sorry to burst your bubbles, but this first assignment will not be on the field. This will be an exercise of sorts. It would be a grave mistake so send you out against the JFA without getting used to your new augmentations, equipment, and team-mates." Overwatch adjusted his glasses again and fixed his gaze on Cyprian. "Zero-Eight. Have you relocated the SDS's to designation Alpha Twenty-Three Foxtrot?"

"Affirmative, sir. Models Zero-Two and Zero-Eight are test confirmed, and the other six models are fully functional and ready for testing." Cyprian responded in a normal tone, a method of speech new to his allies.

"Very good. Zero-Two, lead your team to Alpha Twenty-Three Foxtrot, and have them suit up. Even though you and Zero-Eight are confirmed, I want you to partake in this assignment again."

"Your tales of necromancy are pathetic," he responded in a unimpressed tone. His gaze maintained his book as he spoke. "But if you must know, you needn't worry about feeding me. I do not eat, sleep, or even breathe. And my clothing is solely for protection of identity..." his voice trailed off as his head turned upward to face Siana. The dim glow of the campfire gave his mask a rusted color when combined with its bronze. It was perfectly featureless, save for two small slits for seeing. With a straight tone he asked "Wouldn't want the locals to know that I'm undead, would they? Though I suppose such creatures are more welcome here than in my home plane?"

The Fog

Is Siana gunna ask him the thing?

@em
Thank you. I didn't mean to come off so snobby about it.

The Fog

@em
His existence as an undead was common knowledge in his home plane, but not here in Mym.

@TheUnknowable
That's not the problem. The problem is that @em is assuming things about other characters. I suppose its not bothering anyone else because mine is the only character where such information is critical. But it's still something that people shouldn't do.

I wouldn't say that he smells rotten. But the air of mystery he carries can easily prompt questions. As for how he does his work? You'll have to find out in character, heheh.

@em
Can I just ask how anyone at all knows anything about Adamar under his robes? I fail to understand how the information of him being an undead creature got out. I don't know how familiar you are with roleplaying (I'd like to assume at least a bit, since you write very well), but I'd like to ask that you don't take liberties regarding other people's characters. Being a lich is very obviously a closely guarded secret by Adamar. Nobody knows about it.

In the interest of the above concern, I also ask you to edit your previous in-character posts to reflect the lack of knowledge people have regarding Adamar's race.

"You are correct, Zero-Three." A ninth voice suddenly filled the room around the new companions, it was deep and somewhat raspy, but carried weight with each word. After a moment, the monitor embedded in the wall lit up to reveal the image of a man's head and shoulders. The black suit he wore contrasted heavily against his graying hair, but these colors were moderated by the dark-silver rims of his rectangular glasses, which rested a bit too low on the bridge of his nose. The man remedied this issue by pushing the glasses up to their proper position. He blinked through the glasses with his dulled hazel eyes before speaking again.

"Welcome, Sabres. For those of you who are unaware, I am Overwatch. Think of me as your mission director. Your operations will be briefed by me, and I will be the one you call in to when you are on the field."

"Greetings, sir!" Cyprian quickly dismounted the table and turned to face the screen, throwing his hand up to a salute.

"Yes, hello Zero-Eight." Overwatch nodded at the doctor's excitement, and then proceeded. "As I was saying. Such obligations are the very reason for the presence of both myself and the eight of you. Your first mission."
