Organization:Eighth Arcanum Occult & Oddities and Eighth Arcanum Security Category:Private business and civilian security contractor. Threat:None. Organized by an at-the-time inactive agent to establish a cover identity before re-establishing contact. Employees have been helpful for recon, and early response to minor Nomad incursions. Security Status:Security pilots are to be treated as active Order agents, with additional considerations for preserving cover. Store-level employees are to be treated as normal civilians, until otherwise confirmed.
Name:Jacob Orine Known Callsigns:Lancer, Mystic Known Aliases:Zachary Powell, Wesley Alvarant Age:29 Known Ships:DXM-31H Crow Superiority Fighter Seventeenth Star Notable Skills:Substandard combat capability is offset by remarkable skill in subterfuge and infiltration. Can create an entire false life at a moment's notice. Known Affiliations:Zoner wing "Cartographers" (disbanded), The Order Mystic's Notes:That's my Order file; it's a little outdated. After the Sakyamuni incident, I'd like to think I'm better than "substandard", for one...
Name:Alicia Nall Known Callsigns:Blackmoon, Sorceress Known Aliases:None Age:26 Known Ships:HFX-A9 "Scimitar" Heavy Interceptor Queen of Swords Notable Skills:A skilled programmer, hacker, and systems engineer, Alicia is also well-versed in hit-and-run attacks and assassination. Known Affiliations:Lane Hackers (formerly), Hellfire Legion (formerly), The Order Mystic's Notes:Somewhat volatile. Actively attempting to stay restrained, however. Still active in hacking, as a way to keep her occupied. Loyal, but slightly inclined toward violence.
Name:Lauren Ligon Known Callsigns:Swordsman Known Aliases:None Age:28 Known Ships:CTE-6000 "Eagle" Escort Fighter (Superiority Fighter configuration) Barrier Maiden Notable Skills:A ten-year veteran in private security in all its forms; planetside, station, and space. A skilled marksman and a fighter ace, with additional training in interdiction. Known Affiliations:The Order Mystic's Notes:Level-headed, but very protective. Mostly of Melissa.
Name:Masayuki Minamoto Known Callsigns:Onmyoji Known Aliases:None Age:27 Known Ships:CTE-4000/Neo Falcon Escort Fighter (Scout Fighter configuration) Shikigami Notable Skills:A freelance pilot for much of his life, Minamoto has considerably more business savvy than most of EAS. He briefly joined Order combat forces in the Omicrons for combat training before returning to EAS, and benefitted considerably. Known Affiliations:The Order Mystic's Notes:Holds to a strict code of honor which led to him joining a joint Hellfire Legion and Xeno assault on LNS Ingham. He survived, through some miracle, but that hasn't slowed him down any. His training period with The Order seems to have... not softened it exactly, but focused it and given him a better grasp of the big picture.
Name:Melissa Blackwell Known Callsigns:Dove Known Aliases:None Age:23 Known Ships:CR-11000 "Arrow" Racer Two of Cups Notable Skills:A naturally gifted fighter pilot with excellent spatial awareness and reflexes. Little else, however. Known Affiliations:The Order Handicaps:Albinism-related vision impairment; compensated for with contact lenses and additional visual aids in her fighter. Mystic's Notes:A very timid girl who both Alicia and Lauren are fiercely protective of, I'm not convinced she needs the help; I haven't seen a better pilot in years, and she's taken quite well to Lauren and Masayuki's combat training.
Name:Alyssa Menaris Known Callsigns:Oracle Known Aliases:None Age:31 Known Ships:CTE-19000-E "Zu" Bomber/Electronic Support Platform L'Etoile Notable Skills:A veteran Order agent trained in scouting, surveying, and warship assault. Infiltration skills somewhat deficient; heavily reliant on outside support, leading to obvious problems in most cells. Known Affiliations:Zoner wing "Cartographers" (disbanded), The Order Mystic's Notes:A very... direct person. If assigned to destroy a target, the target will be destroyed. If assigned to escort a ship, the ship will be escorted. If required to lie to someone... hide and hope for the best. Works well with us, but probably not anyone else...

Organization:Mirage Category:Private investigators and military contractor Threat:Moderate. Could expose undercover Order operatives. Too few active resources to damage Order installations, and currently occupied with the Gallic threat - may be useful for recon there. Security Status:Extreme caution advised; new loyalties not fully ascertained but believed to fall with Bretonia. Civilian-level clearance. Mystic's Notes:Existing Order file terribly outdated, predating newest Maltese civil war, submitting this as an update.
Name:Ayumu Ishida Known Callsigns:Ikiryo Known Aliases:Mitsunari Ishida, Hideie Ukita, Yumi Nagata Age:27 Known Ships:Series E "Shamshir" Electronic Support Fighter Utsusemi, Saishi-class Escort Fighter Void Notable Skills:Considerable knowledge of poisons, and skill in disguise - sufficiently androgynous in look and voice to pass for a woman when necessary. Cover stories rarely bulletproof, however. Known Affiliations:Outcasts (renounced) Mystic's Notes:Mirage Black 1, "Ikiryo". One of the most dangerous men on Malta, and the hidden knife of Emilio Santini. His wife's not much better.
Name:Tiana Santini-Ishida Known Callsigns:Morgana Known Aliases:None Age:25 Known Ships:BWX-F1A "Bayonet" Electronic Support Fighter Pugio Notable Skills:A skilled assassin, emphasizing stealth and infiltration, handguns, and daggers. No other relevant skills. Known Affiliations:Outcasts (renounced) Mystic's Notes:Mirage Black 2, "Morgana". Emilio's more overt operative, Tiana is... difficult. Though as far as anyone can tell, she's given up on that work, you can still see the dagger hidden in her sleeve if you know what to look for and minor pirate attacks have shown that she hasn't lost her edge. I fear for whoever she identifies as her next enemy.
She is, however, a very skilled violinist. It's not all murder and destruction.
Name:Mia Santini Known Callsigns:Magician Known Aliases:None Age:29 Known Ships:EVO-1D "Manaslu" Light Fighter Rabbit, CTE-19000 "Roc" Strike Bomber Card Trick Notable Skills:Highly skilled in demolitions, including with improvised explosives. Also trained with a variety of anti-vehicle weaponry, and a competent strike bomber pilot. Known Affiliations:Outcasts (renounced) Mystic's Notes:Mirage White 2, "Magician". Looks younger than she is, acts even moreso. It's not exactly an act, but there is an amazing mind behind the facade. She's a brilliant tactician, gifted artist, and - as half my joints can attest - she's a good fighter too.
The problem is, all of this requires her to focus on something, and it's a rare thing to make her focus. Her writing, both of assorted children's books and the adventure comic series The Adventures of Spinny, is the only thing that can be counted on as that motivation.
Update: Significant threat if she turns on us. Seems genuinely interested in working with us, however; unlikely to turn without reason, and money is not a motive for her.
Name:Santiago Mirez Known Callsigns:Ignis Known Aliases:None Age:26 Known Ships:Series Z "Sabre" Assault Fighter Sunset Fade, Refitted Stinger-class Strike Fighter Null Notable Skills:Elite sniper. Also skilled in medium-range combat marksmanship. Known Affiliations:Outcasts (renounced) Mystic's Notes:Mirage Black 3, "Ignis". Adopted son of Emilio Santini, Santiago's loyalty is unshaking. He does have a somewhat more rigid moral framework than Ayumu and Tiana, and is - along with Mia - most likely to willingly and knowingly work with us.
Name:Emilio Santini Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:Ringwraith Age:52 Known Ships:XDS-2 "Voyager" Deep-Space Freighter Charity Notable Skills:His skills are difficult to quantify, and consist primarily of political maneuvering among the Maltese, which will not be of much use now that he has left them. He is also a skilled businessman, however. Known Affiliations:Outcasts (renounced) Mystic's Notes:The patron of Mirage. Employer of assassins, broker of influence and information. Little direct personal power, though a knack for staying out of the spotlight keeps this from being a problem. He is coldly analytical, and the Maltese schism has left him bitter and untrusting. He will be workable, however, if we can convince him adequately that he will benefit and that Mia will not be endangered.
Name:Serena Santini Known Callsigns:Siren Known Aliases:None Age:47 Known Ships:Series E "Shamshir" Electronic Support Fighter Anthemusa Notable Skills:A moderately skilled hacker, with a particular emphasis on combat AI routines. Known Affiliations:Lane Hackers (employed by them, left amicably), Outcasts (renounced) Mystic's Notes:Mirage White 0, "Siren". Very little information available. Easily hides her identity in public, due in part to looking barely older than her daughters and completely different.
Name:Aina Kouryo Known Callsigns:Yukionna Known Aliases:None Age:27 Known Ships:Renzu Corp. "Saishi" Escort Fighter Yuurei Notable Skills:Scanner operation and reconfiguration. She can tune any open-market scanner array to near Hacker specs, and keep it operating at peak efficiency. Known Affiliations:Azure Line Shipping (was abducted while in their employ), Outcasts (renounced?) Mystic's Notes:Mirage White 1, "Yukionna". Status unclear. Likely working on Malta to watch for Emilio.

Organization:Vagrant Raiders Category:Paramilitary Threat:Moderate. Just skilled enough to be a hazard, especially in ambush and interdiction. VCS Metropolis, a Spyglass II-class battleship, makes them considerably more dangerous. However, Harold Kane's attempt to reform as a lawful nation reduces the risk significantly. Additionally, some minor communications have occurred, indicating an inclination toward cooperation. Security Status:Civilian. Merak Squadron pilots can, if absolutely necessary, be trusted with low-level operational information.
Organization:Natio Octavarium Category:Civilian colony Threat:Minimal. Proximity to the [REDACTED] is the only threat. Security Status:Civilian
Name:Harold Kane Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:None Age:25 Known Ships:R-9W "Raven" Assault Fighter Synchronicity II, XB-2 "Havoc Mk II" Strike Bomber Anesthetize Notable Skills:Competent scout and test pilot, involved in the first run of the Hyena. Also an experienced smuggler and pirate. Known Affiliations:Liberty Rogues (formerly), Vagrant Raiders Mystic's Notes:A strange man. He seems sincere in his attempt to go straight, however.
Name:Victor Delacroix Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:Escher Age:32 Known Ships:SV-17 "Virage" Heavy Scout Superstition Notable Skills:LSF-caliber agent at the minimum. Skilled technician, some hacking expertise, excellent coordination and improvisation. Known Affiliations:Lane Hackers (former employer), Vagrant Raiders Mystic's Notes:First, a note on Escher. He has maintained this facade of the two being seperate entities. This is beneficial to the Raiders and Natio Octavarium. Until otherwise necessary, recommend not threatening that distinction.
He would be a great agent to work with, save for one minor problem - he appears to be utterly amoral. His attempt to at least appear to work for the good of the civilians of Octavarium appears to be motivated by his friendship with Kane, and a look toward his own long-term benefit. However, he rarely bears active malice, and so could be quite useful to us - as long as we can convince him that it would be useful to him.
Name:Ken Matsuda Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:None Age:27 Known Ships:Bison-class Cargo Frigate Headlong Flight Notable Skills:Trained with a variety of ground weaponry; former officer of New Tokyo's Special Investigations Unit. Known Affiliations:Kusari State Police (formerly), Vagrant Raiders Mystic's Notes:Far more dangerous than he looks. He's a friendly man normally, but always prepared for a battle - known to carry a concealed electrolaser at all times, along with a compact scattergun.
Name:Kelly Combs Known Callsigns:Tesseract Known Aliases:None Age:25 Known Ships:MV-422-B "Surveyor" Scout Mirror, Mirror Notable Skills:Holds a law degree, which was used in previous employment. Further on-the-job training led to her knowledge of scout craft operation. Known Affiliations:SilCo. (mining company, bought out by DSE), Vagrant Raiders Mystic's Notes:Kelly Combs, J.D. Goes from law school to flying a scout fighter while also offering legal counsel. I don't get it either. She is, by all accounts, one of Delacroix's most trusted lieutenants, and appears to be attempting to act as his otherwise-absent conscience. I'm not sure if it's working.
Name:Johnathan Jones Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:None Age:33 Known Ships:Eyrie-class Frigate Fort Resolution Notable Skills:Minimal formal training. Experienced freight captain, however, and his employees trust him implicitly. Known Affiliations:Aquila Defense Systems, Natio Octavarium Mystic's Notes:Seems to be a good enough man. Certainly knows his products well enough. Unlike the Raiders, he's not particularly inclined toward combat, but after recent events (see file JO-398) he's far more protective of his employees.

Name:Takeji Nagata Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:None Age:24 Known Ships:R-11A "Kite" Armed Courier (X11 variant model) Kitsunebi Notable Skills:Skilled scout. Known Affiliations:None Mystic's Notes:A freelancer. Emphasis on scouting and recon. Has talent, needs training. Has useful contacts in the Farmer's Alliance.
Name:Elia Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:None Age:28? Known Ships:Renzu Corp. "Saishi" Escort Fighter L'Amoreaux, Renzu Corp. "Touketsu" Strike Bomber Lover's Kiss Notable Skills:Unknown Known Affiliations:None Mystic's Notes:A freelancer. Little else known; need to learn more.
Name:Sally Known Callsigns:None Known Aliases:None Age:28? Known Ships:IR-7 "Raven's Talon" Assault Fighter Moonshadow, R-13B "Rook" Assault Bomber Shadowfall Notable Skills:Unknown Known Affiliations:None Mystic's Notes:A freelancer. Little else known; need to learn more.
