Bdm 02.png The Myth of Lorelei

"Lorelei" the Siren of the Rhein

People within the BDM tell the story of a beautiful but dangerous female being, who likes to distract and lure individual pilots or even an entire crew with her beauty and song, causing them to get lost within the Walker nebula, to tantalize and rob their souls afterwards. Nobody can resist her enchanting voice and she will continue until true love will free her from the curse one day. doesn't grows old

The myth of Lorelei goes back for centuries and is based on ancient german folklore from earth, just as the majority of modern Rheinland myths. According to an old legend on Planet Holstein, there was once a beautiful young maiden named Lorelei, who threw herself headlong into the ocean in despair over a faithless lover. Upon her death she became a siren and began to tantalize the humanity in space.

Lorelei is always joyful, spirited and cannot be insulted or emotionally hurt. Some sources claim she is mostly harmless unless threatened. She is said to be able to change her shape, become indistinguishable from a human and hide the beast that she realy is. A few people claim to have seen her in real. It is said Lorelei lives within the deeps of the Omegas, since many people disappeared in these regions and never return back. Others say the Westerwald is her real home. The existence of such a being is still very controversial.


Biography

Nina Koch, 798 A.S.

Childhood and Youth

Erika Keller, was born on Planet Holstein as Nina Koch, daughter of Karl-Heinz Koch and Bettina Koch. Nina became separated from her biological parents due to job reasons and grew up at a family in a tough and non-child-friendly environment at a terraforming platform on Planet Holstein. Both of her adoptive parents were Daumann employees, worked and lived at the platform. Life on Holstein was hard, most notably for children, but also for small Daumann employees like Nina's new parents. Neither had they the opportunity, nor the sufficient credits to leave their place and start a new life somewhere else.

Nina slowly began to develop a hatred for her adoptive parents after eight years of isolation, till the day when she attempts to commit suicide on Holstein. With luck she survived the tragic incident, but will never recover from her injuries, mentally as well as physically. A deep scar on her left shoulder and limitation of agility of her left arm, is the consequence.

One of her aunts on Planet Hamburg adopted and took care of her after the incident at Holstein. Nina could finally visit the school on Hamburg and find some friends too. She breaks up the contact to her adoptive parents on Holstein entirely and began to study intensively on a police academy in the year 795 A.S. Her injuries didn't stop her to start a career as police officer at the RFP. Nina learned to suppress pain, caused by her injured shoulder, and even passed the police combat tests.


Career as Police Officer (798 - 800 A.S.)

With the successful graduation of Nina's training at the academy, she became assigned to a police department in New Berlin, where she worked as police officer for about two years. With the start of the Nomad War, the nomads were able to infiltrate department for department, since nobody was aware of the threat and suitable security measures to prevent further infection did not exist during this time. Many police officers in Rheinland became infected by nomads, inclusive of Nina's division. She worked within the affected area for long time, without to know her superiors aren't human anymore. Nina didn't realise the constantly growing threat at the office or in Rheinland anyway, at the beginning. But after her colleague began to behave weird and observe her on unfriendly wise, Nina began to investigate. Soon she attracted the attention of the Büro der Marineintelligenz and those of the Infectees as well, who were both not delighted about Nina's internal investigations.

Life after the Nomad War (800 - 819 A.S.)

After Nina realized she was being followed by her colleagues at the office, she makes use of her contacts at the BDM and disappears from one day to another. Thus the police registered her as public enemy and began the search. The BDM gave her a new life with new identity and offered her a job as agent. Her new name was "Erika Keller" from this day on. The BDM made sure to falsify police documents of her and let it look like Nina Koch died by an accident. But the false documents didn't stop the Nomads to search her.

Since the Büro knew about the nomad threat inside of Rheinland, they began to form an entire department, tasked with the elimination of the infiltrators. Erika became a valuable member of such a team, learned to observe people and identify Infectees as well as to fight them effectively. With the shattering of the Nomad mindshare, Büro squadrons use the chance to defeat the remaining nomads in Rheinland with a final assault. Erika became famous for her heroism and brutality towards nomads. During this time, she also helped the BDM to develop special security methods, which should help to fight infested humans more effectively.

With the end of the Nomad War, the long-awaited peace returns into the houses of sirius. Rheinland recovers slowly from the crisis and the BDM begins its recruitment. Erika decides to settle down on Planet New Berlin and teach at the Military Academie in the subjects: Sports, Counterespionage and Military Science, for about 17 years.

In the year 819 A.S. she denied a received job offer from the Büro, until the Direktor personally askes her to rethink her decision. After Direktor Koch turned out to be her brother, she finally agrees and accepts the offer; a decision which will change her life entirely and later turns out to be a terrible mistake with no escape.

Contact with Nomads (819 - 820 A.S.)

With the formation of a seventh BDM department (The Kommissariat), the Büro required trustworthy personnel and offered Erika a new, well-paid job. Erika received access to the recently new formed, secret department and is being provided with an "Oder-" class vessel, later known as the U-177.

Erika contributed in nomad research and performed several tests on living subjects with success, until one day. With the failure of the Gleipnir Device, the entire ship and its crew, had contact with alien materials and became infested by nomads. What exactly happened in Omega-9 and what caused the fail of the device, remains a mystery. The only evidences that can tell what happened aboard of the U-177, are located in the ship's computer. Nobody has noticed any changes, with exception of Direktor Koch, who has received a small part of Erika's personal logbook and tries everything to conceal what happened, in order to find a way to free his sister from the curse and rescue her.

According to official reports, the Kommissariat doesn't even exist and the U-177 is stationed in Omega-9 since 820 A.S., tasked with the survey of space and is still busy with measurements today, if one can believe the reports.

In the meantime, Erika moves through Rheinland unhindered and use the security gaps of the BDM, in order to get access to key figures and infect these. Only the time can tell, when this will lead to another nomad war.

Life as Infiltrator (820 A.S.)

Erika serves as host of a Nomad Incubus named K'tesh. The incubi has healed Erika's injured shoulder entirely and has also "improved" her physiology in many different ways. K'tesh is giving her access to stimulating emotions as some kind of reward for obedience, what could be the reason for her perfect self-control and the high level of voluntary cooperation towards her parasite. Since K'tesh rarely controls its host entirely and Erika obeys her incubi voluntarily, so is she still able to act humane without to show any symptoms of nomad influence. She leaves therefore the impression to be still human.

Erika's incubi seeks seclusion and tries to avoid public locations whenever possible. It prefers to lure its victims into abandoned places, in order to infest or kill them with utmost efficiency and without disruptions. Her incubi is able to manipulate the minds of those around her by creating tempting and irresistible illusions, in order to seduce and control them. These kinds of infectees use human instincts as vulnerable point and are often described as sirens.

Like most infiltrators, K'tesh prefers to infest people with authority, but on occasion it also chooses simple soldiers with connections to such people. Its methods are unpredictable and often take place as excursions on other vessels, covered as routine inspection. The incubi is well aware of the processes and security measures within the BDM. By using her charm and authority, Erika travels through Rheinland unhindered and can bypass security controls without much effort. She serves the Nomads mainly as observer and infiltrator, but occasionally also as soldier.

Rumors came up that she had connections to the Bundschuh and tried to support their political goals. That's why many people called her the "Bundi Betti". She disappeared in the year 803 A.S. without a trace.


Brother

Volker Koch is agent and military scientist at the same time. As specialist for combat ship design and battle tactics, he plays an important role in Rheinland's nomad research program and major projects. He participated already in numerous secret operations and his knowledge about processes inside of the BDM puts him in constant danger to get caught and interrogated by unlawful organizations. Many criminals would pay large sums to get their hands on such information, which makes Volker to a popular target for terrorists.
