While on an extended contract with the Raven Alliance during the Early Republic era, we hired a young pilot, Angel Verdun, to join our cause. Unfortunately for this pilot, she was assigned to our Shadow Cat J. Angel performed excellently during our campaign's practice missions. However, on our first battle with an enemy we were quickly made aware of the Shadow Cat J's flaws; as soon as one of the 7 Gauss rifle variants onboard would be hit, it would start a volatile chain reaction with the mech's internal components. Paired with the ammo packed into this mech and the fragility of its chassis, this warmachine would quickly turn into a smoking rubble if it was met with a challenge. Our opponents at Rawhide's Roughnecks nicknamed it "Popcorn" due to the fireworks displayed by the mech's self-destruction.

Angel would come out of her first battle in a state of near-death as her neurohelmet had fried most of her brain. Miraculously, and using the Raven's medical technology, she managed to survive and heal-up for the next battle. During the course of this 7 mission campaign however we were limited to using the same star of mechs we had selected initially, and Angel could only use the Shadow Cat.

Angel finished her tour having died 4 times due to neural feedback, and every single time she was put back together having lost a part of herself. Our peppy little pilot slowly turned into more of a machine than man.

I keep recalling the ancient thought experiment known as the "Ship of Theseus"; If a ship's original components are replaced with identical parts, is it even the same ship? At what point does it become a different ship? What about the human brain?

Attention, Somerset Inner Sphere.

I am Nova Commander Wikolia Osis of the Smoke Jaguar Clan.

You will ask yourself why an Elemental with only one arm is a Nova Commander. My service record, and especially my ability to keep Star Commander Yazmin Corbett from running off to do something dezgra, should explain that.

This line of communication is now open if you require further context or have other questions.

Good day.

Hey, is shibari a normal part of SLDF Gunslinger training? Can’t find it in the old manuals I just dug up, but it was definitely there in my learning process.
