Aboard the Shade 01

[Lennox]

Hidden in it's own isolated EM field, the old Colonial transport turned it's rounds through Liberty. Observing and gathering information from spying on the locals and open channels. Seeking for any kind of relevant information, the captain of the transport, that had been christened the "Shade 01", already had some routine by doing the travels through Liberty, under the radar. The Shade 01 was supposed to be a mobile outpost for those, who went closer to all the springs of information.

The Shade itself was a reconstructed version of the usual Colonial transport, meant to be able to scan areas at long range due to it's advanced scan array, built into the first tank. The other tank was supposed as cargo hold for storing any kind of significant cargo. The rest of the ship was held simple, except for the docking bay, that was built into the second tank shortly after the reconstruction. In the corridors along the two tanks were the quarters of the 'personnel'. The ship was only manned by 24 Agents of the Order, who were spread all over the ship. On the bridge, in the first tank to make the scanners work, the machine room and the shield generator. However, it was never supposed to stay like that. A lot of quarters below the bridge deck and at the corridors were still empty, unused.

The quarters contained everything necessary to survive. Nothing was fitted out luxuriously. Though, a simple shower, a sink, a bed and a small closet. An agent used to living under difficult circumstances would rather find a quarter on the Shade more comfortable than the barracks he used to live in. Isolated and armored well enough to prevent inner ship damage, it was obviously safer to work and 'live' on such a ship close to unfriendly space, where everyone treats one as terrorist, than anywhere else close to the Nomad worlds.

The agents serving under the captain were chosen people he thought he can trust. The ship itself had an important mission. And the crew was ready to do everything possible to achieve this mission.
