The Gambler and the Double Agent

Active Characters

• Belladonna - mink courtesan and assassin
• Fenris - Elite force using wolf
• Verada - Long lost and thought to be dead force shadow of Fenris's sister

Mission Parameters

The mission is two-fold. The first target is a bothan spy located on a cruise vessel. The senate has hired Protein Solutions to do the investigation to avoid entanglements with other operations and increased their plausible deniability on the matter.

The second target is an assassination. A rogue Tappani noble from house Barnabus and gone too far. Unable to return him but still somehow fueling a hungry gambling habit, there is rumor he is trafficking in something more lucrative. Whatever it is, somewhere in the chain of command and the diplomatic mess that is Tappani, they want this fellow dead to solve all problems at once. Bell has been dispatched to get close to the target and terminate him silently.

Mission Notes

The Cover

• Fenris has little training in being 'normal' around others. Bell is acclimating him to the idea that he has to play her mate in this game of deception, and that means getting close to her and being natural at it by the time they arrive. Sensing he really needs to work from the ground up, she is keeping it very formal to start along with setting some rules to keep him comfortable so that he might relax and take the lessons in.

They say clothing makes the man, but Bell is showing Fenris how much more there is to that. It is obvious she takes her mission serious, and she is adapting her methods to fit Fenris as much as she can.

Stowaway

One night, Fenris is awakened in his sleep by the feeling he is being watched. Bell is asleep, but there is still that idea that someone else is there. It turns out that he has found he was not the only Loth wolf at protein solutions. He is simply the only completely intact one. The shadow turns out to be Verada, his twin sister, who has been hiding in his shadow for some time and learning along with him. She also points out that Bell is going to change soon. When she awakens, it is going to be much more dangerous for her given she can transmit thought as well as receive.

Verada also reveals there are two other shadows: Klaatu is Fwiffa's sister and Nicto is Aarlynn's brothers, and all of them have in common that they were created as hybrids of known Force-sensitive species.
