Krasnaya Xue
Red Snow
Name: Night Watch
Intent: To add some strategic flavor to the Rebel Alliance's military.
Affiliation: The Rebel Alliance
Availability: Uncommon
Quality: C
Type: Comms and detection officers
Strength: 2-8 Watchers
Description: With the apparent rise in the use of cloaking devices and the critical need for encryption in such a time of war, the Rebel Alliance sought to create an unorthodox military organization that would fit the bill. The Alliance recruited Miraluka agents (after forming a protection pact) to work as communications and detection officers, primarily on-board fleet vessels and space stations or at critical outpost and base locations, though some may occasionally be found in less conspicuous underground stations.
Night Watch groups consisted of 2-8 Watchers for spotting and code talking. They would be utilized to discern cloaked vessels and triangulate their positions through the Miraluka species' unique way of 'seeing' objects and lifeforms. They were also taught and promoted to speak and develop vocal languages, tactile codes, special Force signatures, and digitally-produced tonal codes for encrypted communications. Due to their sight advantages and disadvantages, the Night Watchers are ideal for concentrating on these non-visual purposes and are considered critically important to Alliance coordination.
While Watchers are trained and provided with weaponry to defend themselves, combat is not often their specialty and there is no standardized set of armaments to be distributed to Night Watch units, though most Alliance members are initially equipped with AR-47s, DH-17s, and Sentinel-series belts.
