***

Vessel Callsigned as 'MV Athanauthe', is the purchased transport of sleeper agent task group 1129-KU. Kusari built, Tagged, And registered. Athanauthe is operating under the guise of a merchant cargo ship built into a decommissioned Kusari cruise liner and currently operating under unofficial premesis, pending activation of crew's NCI implants if and when required. Vessel is classified as SPY-6, and shall be put under command of co-ordinator WATSAS upon activation. Following is a brief personell Bio of the ship's crew.

Michael Steed (WGGNR-AUG-200456)
History of Individual known as Michael Steed is unknown, prior to his being 'requisitioned' from a DSE merchant convoy. Steed underwent medical experamentation as part of Project OLYMPUS, and was outfitted with harmonised AI, Neural implants, and extensive psychosurgery. The Individual is know able to physically link to a ship's command, and 'become' the ship itself. This requires extensive support hardware only currently installed on the Athanauthe and the Hoshinokatana.

Steed's Behavioral patterns indicate he is a loner, and holds contempt and distrust to most other individuals. He is particularly difficult to intimidate or scare, attributed both to his inherant personality, and Psi-modification. However, he is vocal about his dislike of most others, which has caused problems in the past. Pairing with the 'Ashaine' individual partially counteracts his inherant discontention.

Ashaine Keiran (ACA-AUG:L-400312)
Individual Ashaine Keiran was born some time around 793 AS on planet Denver, early life history is irrelevent, first event of note was her hiring to Ageria technologies as a software engineer. She accelled at computer science and software design, but was involved in an illicit affair with another Ageria employee. The two were fired and eventually joined the Lane Hackers. Her relationship soon dissolved after this.

She spent approximately 15 months as a Hacker, rising through the ranks and proving her skills as a software engineer. However, her eccentric personality prevented her from rising further. Nevertheless, her skills caught the attention of our benefactors, and we 'requisitioned' her for our own use. She underwent basic neural implantation and memory replacement, and was deployed aboard the Athanauthe.

Her personaity is eccentric, outgoing, and typically friendly. However, due to the lack of extensive conditioning implants and control hardware, she is not incapable of self-expression. She has shown a degree of empathy toward the 'Golden Chyrsanthemum' movement, and still holds some memory of the Lane Hackers. Due to her neglagible combat capacity, she is not to be deployed unassisted.

***

Raul Paulo (IACT-AUG:L-400881)
Raul Paulo individual was formerly a (presumably) low ranking corsair, and part of a smuggler group operating in Sigma-13. His group strayed too close to our operations there and was destroyed, with Paulo being the only recyclable survivor. The 'Ashaine' individual had previously met Paulo at some point and showed both animosity and ironically, admaration for this individual. By her request, Paulo underwent only basic memory replacement and augmentation, and was attached to the Athanauthe crew.

Raul appears friendly toward other people, though has shown fear of Nomadic entities and a degree of dislike toward Outcasts and individuals under the influance of Cardimine. However, his primary phychological fault is his nature as a womaniser. His overactive reproductive instincts have caused several issues in the past, and have thus gotten him exiled from Corsair territory. He has no relationship with Ashaine or SELEN, but lacks self control toward other females.

Typical protocol should this cause problems is to let the female in question beat Raul into the ground, and only conduct nanite-based repairs if injuries are considered life-threatening.

SELEN (CMB-ATKCY-1239643)

All information regarding the individual the SELEN unit is based on is classified TOP SECRET.

SELEN is a human based cybernetic soldier. She is equipped with similar style implants to the 'Michael Steed' individual, abiet reclaibrated to effectively operate diffrent classes of assault vehicles and war machines. The SELEN is intended purely as an assassin and tactical assault unit, should circumstances require it. Because of this, she has extensive internal modification to make her more resistant to physical damage and better able to operate in adverse conditions. However, SELEN is intended to be deployed with an armored powered exoskeleton.

SELEN's personality can only be described as 'dark', due to the extreme nature of her Memory Replacement and control implants. She is designed to be obediant, but when active, will occasionally express her desire for bloodshed. She will also directly investigate and gather intelligence on potential threats to her. She is however, no threat to the Athanauthe crew, as her control implants prevent her from harming them, or any other Consortium personell. However, when the Rules of Engagement require, she will hunt down and destroy any threat, direct or preceved. Her exact mental and physical capabilities and the specifications of her bio-modification remain classified.

***
Currently all personell aboard the Athanauthe are on passive standby, and have no knowlage of the Consortium or any of our personell. Pending activation, relevent data will be downloaded into their Neural-Net and they will recive their instructions.
