Triarius, Spectre Nexus The inside of the Planet Triarius Spectre Nexus was not as cold and foreboding as what one might expect from what was essentially a Military Police, but it was not warm either. The hallways contained Energy Doors to Offices for each Spectre. Corvus walked all the way down to his Office and waved his hand over the Biolock, the Energy door clicked off for him. In the case that power was cut, there was a fail safe. A bulkhead would slam down to stop people from passing through. Corvus entered his office and peered around Corvus was a Spectre Overseer, There were Several Ranks of Spectre: Spectre Overlord, the Command of all Spectres Spectre Master, The Command of all Spectre forces of a Worlds Nexus. Only a handful of worlds contained Spectre Nexus', and Spectre Masters essentially controlled any operations led by members of that Nexus Spectre Overseer: A sort of Section Leader, in charge of a Section of a Spectre Nexus. Some of the smaller Nexuses had just two or three Section, but most had around Eight. The one on Triarius was a massive Nexus, and had over Twenty Sections. Spectre Officer: The lowest rank of Triarian Spectre. They were assigned a Section and took orders through it. Spectre Officers sometimes led Spectre Xenos, and other times worked in groups of their own. He stood next to his holographic terminal, a sleek black pedestal that projected a hologram above it, tapping commands on it. He tapped in his user name, password and waved his hand over the bioscanner. His personal AI spoke to him, in a feminine voice. It wasn't the standard cold and disected speech of an Equitem AI. He had told the AI to use it's 'True' voice and personality, which essentially gave it permission for everything about it to be at it's own discretion. She had chosen a feminine Triarian voice, and though he had only seen it once he remembered her holographic avatar being a 5'6 Triarian Female that was neither beautiful nor ugly, but rather average looking. When acting formally her personality was serious, as with all AI's, but if he told her she could act otherwise she used a lot of sarcasm, though never with any malice. "Obvius Dato Cogitatio de in die: Ducite in maiori bono cum vos ut a facem. Cum in facem comminuet umbras ((Access Granted. Thought of the day: Carry the greater good with you as a torch. With that torch break the shadows))" The AI said to him, and he tapped a few commands into it. He pulled up the Section reports and read over them. Technically, he could have ordered the AI to download it to his brain, but that was saved for important information and this was just basic reports, no need to bother. He tapped several commands in, sighing heavily. Then he got a notification "Ostende ((Show))" He said, and the AI quickly replied to him "Etiam, Praelatus Meus ((Yes, my superior))" It said, and he grunted slightly "Potes amittit formalitas ((You can lose the formality))" "Circa tempore ((About time))" The AI replied, and the file popped up on Screen To: Spectre Overseer Corvus From: Supreme Overlord Marcus Subject: Response to Alternatives Content: The Argutus are already working underway on some of these idea's, Corvus. You're input was useful, but we doubt it will prove resource effective to do. For now, redirect any Captured Draconians to Central Processing Facility Nova Prospekt for holding before experimentation. There may be a new Spectre Unit coming, Overseer. The Spectre Masters and Overlords have been informed of your Above Average Service. Continue the Above Average Service. Bonus of 230 Civic Work Points allocated. Bonus of two hours extra off duty time allocated. Corvus nodded and closed the message. He tapped a few commands and shut the files down before closing down the Terminal and speaking to the AI. He'd take some of his Off Duty time now, what was the point in earning bonuses if he wasn't going to use them? He had heard of a media project was of particular interest, and he had enough Off Duty time available that he had stored over his career.
