Biography

The PCA Warrant Officer's HC was not activated when Raven attacked the enforcement squads under the request of Balam Industries. He identified the comms interference caused by Handler Walter as Raven's doing soon after the mercenary broke into the Wall, and ordered remaining forces to engage to buy the time for HC's activation. He engaged Raven as they met the last AM14: SENTRY squad, but was ultimately defeated.
