Initial Contact

This isn't over yet, but with you around I think we just might have a chance.

Alright, let's get this out of the way. My title is tactician, but I'm also in charge of Vanguard's cloak-and-dagger stuff. I've been watching your work, so I know you can handle weird situations, and that you have a tendency to come out on top despite the odds. That sounds like just the kind of person I need right now.

Briefing

The mission I have is dangerous, but unlike some cloak-and-dagger types, I actually like it when the people I work with know what's going on. Deniability is great, sure, but I prefer people to be able to react to a changing situation. So if you're in, I'll give you the low-down. But don't make me wait too long.

Okay, here's the situation:
You know about the branches of Vanguard, right? The Helm, Shield, and Gauntlet? Well, there's another branch. The one I run: the Sword. We handle counter-intelligence, special forces actions, all that kind of stuff. It can be some ugly work, but it's necessary.

Now here's what this has to do with you:
Some actions have gone... wrong lately. Frankly, I suspect that some of the Sword have been compromised. I can't investigate it myself, so I need someone to do it by proxy. That would be you. And this is the incident I want you to check:
One of those Traditionalist Negotiators is missing. One of the Sword teams I suspect was in the vicinity, lead by Captain Flint, someone I used to trust. I want you to check out their location. If the diplomat's there, bring him back alive. I'll be waiting for your report. Oh, and the negotiator's name is Sah'Teece. Apparently he was a Rikti sports hero before he became a diplomat. Some kind of racing, I guess.


Mission Objective(s)

This really looks like the kind of place someone could dump a body.

  • Locate Missing Negotiator
    • Rescue Sah'Teece
    • Defeat Captain Flint

You prevented the assassination and captured the plot's leader!

Sword Sorcerer: Stand down and walk away, Character! This doesn't involve you!

Enemies

V badge Vanguard.png Vanguard

Notable NPCs

  • Lt. Davidson (Vanguard Sword, Boss)
  • Negotiator Sah'Teece (Returning Human, Defector)

Negotiator Sah'Teece: Protest: Innocence! Occupation: Diplomat! Prior Actions: Non-Hostile!
Vanguard Ranger: Non-hostile, he says!
Lt. Davidson: That's the problem. You're too much of a stabilizing influence.
Vanguard Ranger: Sir!
Negotiator Sah'Teece: We've been made! - has to be a bug
Lt. Davidson: It's not persona. . . Character! Send a message to Captain Flint!

Negotiator Sah'Teece: Expression: Many Thanks! Prior Status: Very Worried! Current Status: Very Relieved!

Negotiator Sah'Teece: Sincere Expression: Thanks

  • Captain Flint(?) (Vanguard Sword, Boss(?)) - never actually saw Captain Flint, but cleared the map and completed the mission

Assassination List
If you weren't a member of Vanguard, this Cipher would take serious effort to decode. But with your training, it only takes a few moments to read the names of the negotiators and diplomats this squad has been assigned to murder. The evidence is plain, but leaves you with more questions.

Debriefing

Sah'Teece has been on Earth for a while. We told him that his kidnappers were really Nemesis Automatons, and he bought it without reservation. Guess you can get used to anything. But you and I know that those were real people, soldiers of the Vanguard who've gone renegade. They're taking orders to illegally murder people with an eye towards destabilizing the peace with the Traditionalists. This isn't just Flint and a rogue squad. This is a conspiracy. And I'm going to need your help rooting it out.
