She laughs. "Well, that seems brave. I'm sure that the Star Order will send a capable team to wipe them out. It'll be a battle for the ages, I'm sure. Very romantic."

[Prophet]

Acknowledged. Is there any one notable amongst their numbers I should keep an eye out for. I would like to avoid having to find some 'debris' if the Corporations are keeping a nearby watch, but will do what I have to. 'Debris', a popular code amongst independent mining and salvaging operations to refer to murdering a corporate rat and lackey somewhere remote or out of the way. After all, if all the surveillance on the nearby machines wasn't functioning, then who's to contradict that they simply got got hit or ran into an unfortunate patch of debris and rock in space.

Grimy Scavenger Pilot: "Most of them are now corporate dogs, so whatever you have in mind, I have nothing to do with it. The others? Either dead or too smart to get found out. Still, take this."

The Pilot transfers to Drifter a list of call signs from independent scavengers turned corporate scavengers.

Scavenger Pilot with a breathing mask: "*shhhh* Callsign Bad Wrench. Got a vendetta against the piece of work. She is the reason behind my mask. *shhhh* My callsign is Sandpaper. *shhhh* Sorry though, there is no bounty on her name. I can't pay you, but I will owe you one if you make debris out of her *shhhh*"

“Thanks”  Charles discreetly leaves, attempting to rustle up some info on a new contract.

Rumors
Iron Wrath manages to hear some tidbits of information about a few exclusive contracts some mercenaries have, but all of them are secretive enough not to spill too many beans. And even in the rare case a wasted mercenary would tell him the entire details of the contract, it wouldn't help him much as these exclusive contracts are exclusive for a reason. Pilots who weren't contacted cannot hope to undertake these contract.

Iron Wrath does understand that to obtain exclusive contracts, he will need contacts with the corporations. The faction liaisons he knows about could be a good start, or he could also try to attract attention by raising his reputation or attracting the good graces of a corporation by fulfilling their open contracts.

An expedition starts with an exploration phase, and may involve phases outside of your MU.

Great Rust Field
A vast continental sized desert of metallic sand and rusty ruins.
-> Drifter knows of the location of a few unexplored ruins

Hostile Ecosystem Area
A lush and extremely dangerous area of Begreris where nature reigns supreme.

Spoiler: Quarters (click to show/hide)

A refurbished basement underneath a local firing range, bought from the owners through a local contact. The back wall has been converted into an impromptu rack, upon which she hangs the few firearms she was willing to bring along from her personal collection. Her bed consists of a mattress on the floor, covered in MU plushies, several of them recognizable as being modeled after her parents' machines.
The rest of the room is... barren, to say the least. She probably doesn't know how to cook, considering that a microwave and a minifridge make up the entirety of her "kitchen."

[Negative] Severe Astigmatism - -1 Pilot Skills and Job Skills at night or in low light conditions
Mercy Smith's eyes tire more easily than most, and she is occasionally subject to migraine headaches. Although she is used to it, her symptoms worsen at night and impair her activities. She might be able to cure her condition if she can scrounge up enough money for a surgery.
[Positive] "Cleanup" Expert - +1 Combat Skill +1 Medicine Skill / has friendly contacts in the underworld
Mercy Smith's line of work has given her certain insights with weapons and the human body, and how they interact together.

Accept Contract: Destroy PRI installation

[Hawk132]

Receiving a similar ping from his own device, Zereth skimmed through the list of urgent contracts, "Indeed, Ms. 'Wrecker'. Do you have a contract in mind?"

[Egan_BW]

"I wouldn't mind digging my blades into that 'Specimen', though fighting the PRI pays better, and we'd be fairly assured of success with four mercs on the job. But hey, I'm willing to miss out on 2000 VC if it means I get to kill something new, don't you agree?"

[Hawk132]

The noble nodded in agreement, "I haven't used an MU for a hunt yet. It'd be an interesting experience."

Zereth will accept the same contract as Wrecker.

[Egan_BW]

Let's give SYMBIOSIS a hand. And a healthy salvo of 16 missiles to the enemy's face.

[Prophet]

Even with his pride as a Scavenger, Drifter would have to admit the superior durability and sheer power of Hepheastus MUs and weapons. Considering his specialization in piloting heavier MUs, Drifter decides to introduce himself by taking their Perimeter Patrol mission.

[BIA] Edgar Valmir: "This sabotage operation will take place in the Contested Area of Northern Terius. The area is frequently wracked with powerful sandstorms that disrupt sensors and communications, hence the need for the PRI to install their beacons. We hope to slow down their operations by taking down this one beacon. Here are the coordinates of the beacon station. Good luck mercenaries."

The Korator is a native specimen of Begreris, commonly named "Redscythe" due to its two characteristic red front bladed claws. Although it lacks ranged capabilities, it more than makes up for it with its incredible speed combined with its claws able to slice through medium plating with ease. We have plotted an interception course for you, please head as soon as possible, there is not a second to waste. Best of luck."

In the distance, the pilots can see a great cloud of dust upon which rides a massive creature in the shape of a cobra with two massive scythe like arms, which it uses to propel itself off the ground at incredible speeds. Along its tail, smaller legs seem recoilled. Upon noticing the Modular Units, it roars threateningly and accelerates. If not intercepted, it is bound to reach their position in a few seconds.
