You’ve all known each other for about 17 years, since the 4th year of the Unification War. All of you were promising young officers, and all of you were selected to be in the first (and in the end, the last) set of seven subjects for the prototypical symbiovirus SNBv3
Your team first came together 17 years ago when you were selected to be the first group of 8 officers who were to take the symbiovirus SNBv3. The virus itself was a piece of NewTech that was almost as interesting for the fact that The Independents had it and The Alliance did not, as for its unique properties. The precise mechanics of the virus have never been truly understood, but the actual effects can only be referred to as a heightened understanding in tactical situations. The subjects appear to instinctively know how the others will react in such situations, which allows teams to co-ordinate their efforts as easily and efficiently as the characters in the cheapest of action films.
The resulting commando team was as spectacularly efficient as one would expect from 8 young officers handpicked from throughout the army. As well as all being capable soldiers, Johnny Corelli was a master-sniper; Cenuij Mu was the mechanic and heavy weapons expert; Miz Kuma was the hacker; Dloan Franck was one of the most accomplished fighters the army had to offer, and a damn fine scout; His sister, Zefla had a brilliant mind and a firm grasp of legal loopholes, Tsai Chin could fly anything with an engine and Kara Lee could drive anything with wheels. Caroline Sharrow, widely regarded as a tactical genius and all-round hard-arse was chosen to lead the squadron.
Unfortunately, by the time the testing and training was complete, it was too late to turn the tide of battle; Serenity Valley had come and gone and The Independents were lost. The only notable moment in the war for any of you was when Corelli put himself and Sharrow in hospital.
After the war the five of you, along with Breyguhn, Sharrow’s half sister, hired out your unique talents. Business was fairly lucrative A few years later a Wave concerning the heretofore unknown planet Miranda shocked the system.
