After leaving the classroom where he, Piper and Rhett had had their meeting, but before calling the team together to come up with a plan, Aaron decided to swing by the archives to see what he could dig up. He can still be found there now, at a computer terminal; he went and grabbed Jim's file, and is now looking up anything he can find on him in Paradigm records! Mr. Amtrum said he hadn't been encountered in about five years, so he's starting with searching through mission reports in the Paradigm database, looking for the most recent reports describing encounters with Clavish.

The whole team was killed. The plan had been to infiltrate the event as staff and to assassinate the targets. The controller, who is the one writing the report isn't sure how the cover had been compromised. But there had been gunfire that lasted less than a minute, and then raido silence. No one emerged from the event. Back to Top   Mathew Amtrum Aaron Silverman Legend Defense ...

You'd think people more competent would've been sent after him. He scrolls through other reports he finds, starting from the latest ones and looking for any descriptions of Clavish in action. Particularly anything that might suggest hypnotic or outright mind-controlling abilities. Back to Top   Some things are worth fighting for, some feelings never die...

He sees plenty of reports detailing Jim in firefights. Sniping. Using explosives, either on himself or on hostages. Back to Top   Mathew Amtrum Aaron Silverman Legend Defense ...

This is a lot more metaphysically complex than "just" a super powerful healing factor, then. It does make him question just how the hell they're supposed to get him back to Paradigm, though.

Like nothing happened. Curiouser and curiouser. He doesn't even know where to begin on getting the bastard to stay down, then. And for all they know, he'll have wherever they're supposed to ambush him wired to explode. Had Paradigm ever captured him alive? Pre-dissolution, were there ever autopsies conducted on him? « Last Edit: Dec 1, 2015 18:49:36 GMT -6 by Aaron Silverman » Back to Top   Some things are worth fighting for, some feelings never die...

He'd usually have backup to stop that happening, Aaron imagines. Anything unusual on autopsy reports? Or has his body always vanished before there was a chance for one?
