Overview
The former commanding officer of the Task-Force November-51. He was the leader of the Clandestine Operations Branch (now the 1st Special Forces Light Batallion) following the Unification Treaty that settled the grudge between him and Le Bourguinion. Since then, he gathered the best (and voluntary) men of the Task-Force alongside some recruits made here and there (mainly army veterans) to put a unit together. Better organized, he has more things to give to the runners now, though he still sticks to his operational habits (no Matrix and all).
He is a pretty average-looking human of with an obvious French accent and a penchant for never being seen dressed in something different from his trusty FBA. Not a big fan of chitchat, he always gets straight to the point on any matter.
Aspects Description
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Old-School Operative | While he can no longer escape it, the Commander still distrusts the Matrix. Anything even remotely related to what he considers sensitive information (GM discretion) must be handled via in-person meets. The stores such data in paper files only. No matter how high Loyalty you have with him, he won't budge on this. It's for your own good. |
| Casevac | It's always good to have a way out of a dire situation. He can provide this way out by having a Blackhawk of the Task-Force on standby with a rescue team, roughly providing DocWagon service anywhere if paid enough. |
| Tactical Insertion | The Commander can help you and your team with HALO jumps to quickly get into places you're not supposed to be in. |
| Shady Knowledge | The Commander knows much about the shady side of the N-51. Underworld, Radical Groups, Shadow Community and Law Enforcement Procedures are knowledge skills which receive a +2 boost if he helps you with related Legwork tests. |
| JURY Protocol | The Commander can call upon many of N-51's "enhanced interrogation technique experts" (read: torturers) to "extract information from unwilling individuals" so you don't have to get your hands dirty. |
| Military Intelligence | Information is the key to success in many operations. The Commander invests a lot of money in planting informants across Seattle. He can help you connect with them with him as a middleman, providing services of infobroker contacts - for a price. Treat them as Loyalty 1 for the purpose of calculating service costs, with Connection at GM discretion. |
| Safehouses | If he trusts you enough (Loyalty 2+), the Commander can connect you with people who handle safehouses for his men - while pocketing a middleman's fee. |
| Shady Deals | The Special Forces Light Batalion sometimes uses shady means to fight smart, not fair, such as combat gases. The Commander can more easily provide such equipment. He also deals in B&E gear. |
