BACKGROUND
At the height of the Shadow Wars - a period of time in which humanity seemed so close to extinction when the fighting between the Automatons and the Dreadroids reached a fever pitch on Earth, leaving destruction and death in their wake - the government of the U.S. created another sector to try and combat the problem. While the Galateions Response Branch (GRB) was, and is, still the 'public' face for the government officials and continued to work on their own set of projects and missions, this new secretive branch was tasked with something more important.
Instead of simply reacting to the Galateions' fights and trying to find new ways to counteract the threats with methods such as data decryption and response safety & rescue services, the Interrogative Research Sector (IRS) was focused more on more destructive fields such as weapons engineering and defence chemistry to take a more proactive approach to the threat of alien warfare. They were also tasked on learning all they can about Galateions they could capture or were brought to the IRS' secret base for 'enhanced interrogation' in order to learn more about the aliens' culture and history, trying to figure out why the Galateions picked Earth to be the latest backdrop of their war.
The IRS was headed by Dr. Claudius Sigfred during its 'golden years' and it showed with how many breakthroughs were made under his tenure: The creation of the Neural Connectors, the Individual Storage Researchers, along with the discovery of the Legacy War and what brought the War to their world. Yet his time in the IRS had an impact on him as well - The more he learned about the Galateions from that data they were able to recover from the interrogations and picking about the mind module of dissected/dissected frames, the more he became both intrigued and disgusted by the wasted potential the race had before it devolved into an endless cycle of war and blood. One that found itself on Earth, inevitably ruining the planet and tying the human race’s fate with them in the process.
Believing both humans and Galateions were on the edge extinction following his time in the Interrogative Research Sector, he decided to create a hybrid race that would have best traits of both species - the ingenuity and flexibility of a human and the strength and power of a Galateion. He assembled a small team of trusted colleagues and pawns to help him with his mission and it wasn't long before Dr. Sigfred was ready to change the world in his own curious way. He did so by spearheading the top secret program that will become known as Project CHALICE.
STAFF
The individuals involved in Project CHALICE and who knew the full extent of what the project entailed are a small number. This is due to Dr. Sigfred’s desire to keep this under his control, only enlisting the help of those who are experts in the desired fields while being indebted to him in one form or another. As of 2069, only three individuals involved in Project CHALICE are confirmed to be alive: Ruby Clapton and Ria Ross. The rest have been confirmed dead, for one reason or another, or are have been presumed dead due to disappearing at some point and no body being found.
CLAUDIUS SIGFRED
Famous for his expertise in bioengineering and robotics engineering, along with his ability to manipulate/use people, Dr. Claudius Sigfred believes that the sacrifice is necessary for progress. He was the one who discovered the strange compatibility between Galateions and humans and the one who created all the schematics/plans for the Chalice’s birth and creation. He’s disappeared following the reveal of his secrets. RUBY CLAPTON
The brilliant surgeon who successfully installed the first round of implants in Lorem who was a newborn at the time. Though once considered Dr. Sigfred’s prodigy, her refusal to participate any further, thanks to crisis of conscience due to her close connections with Cerise Laudeville, had her being blacklisted. She can now be found in Dust Tumbles as the town doctor and a consultant for the fledgling NODICE organisation. SHIRO MURANAKA
Shiro became the medical officer. He was the one who implanted and drafted the later implants in Lorem over the years. Shiro died seemingly of natural causes but Ruby Clapton and Ria Ross believe there’s more to his passing than meets the eye. It is rather suspicious that he started to grow weaker (and more senile) following his retirement from the IRS after he completed his involvement in the project. RIA ROSS
A scientist who specialises in the (secret) field of Galateion technology. She’s instrumental in figuring out some of triggers that have been placed in Lorem and Momento Mori as she was the one who took care of Esperanza’ system during their time in CHALICE. This means she’s one of the few who can access the brain module and shift through data without causing the technology to breakdown or degrade. MILLICIENT ESPERANZA
An Individual Storage Researcher tasked with carrying horrifying of the IRS, Millicent tried to redeem herself by joining NODICE. Alas her efforts only had her killed - The collective killswitch that’s been installed in all Researchers activated in order to throw NODICE off during their investigation of a different organisation at the time. NICOLA CAELIAER
Nurse and assistant to Dr. Sigfred. She attempted to blow the whistle about what was really going on with Project CHALICE after. Dr. Sigfred killed Nicola and tried to make her death look like an accident. Ironically enough its her sudden death, and Dr. Sigfred’s decision to attempt to wipe her presence out of Lorem’s memories, that brings intense scrutiny onto him when Lorem notices strange holes in her memories.
