Interrogation Specialist
Taking pride in his work is probably the best way to describe Borg. Not only is
he an elite pilot with excellent marksmanship and the ability to control his Mech
in the most violent of circumstances, but he is also a proficient interrogator.
Currently involved in both his star’s activities and the Strider’s Strikers
Intelligence Corps, he leads a busy lifestyle. Trained in both mental and
physical interrogation techniques Borg can usually wring the information
needed out of a prisoner one way or the other. Although frowned upon both by
Colonel Strider and Star Colonel Carns, his abilities have often brought home
important tactical information and both commanders have been known to turn a
blind eye to his usual methods. His abilities have brought him under scrutiny
from several of the House intelligence branches and The Word of Blake’s
faction of ROM. Security is high around him and his star at all times to protect
this valuable asset.
Borg has had both major successes and major failures in his time with the
Strider’s Strikers Intelligence Corps. The brainchild of Mural Rye-Del and Borg,
the SSIC first gained major footholds within the team when the organization
discovered evidence of the coming invasion of Wasat by Blakist mercenary
groups. While both Strider and Carns had initially scoffed at the idea of such
an invasion of so minor of a world, the commanders were forced to realize the
truth in Borg and Mural’s warnings as an increase in the number of Blakist
attacks grew ever more apparent.
Borg and the SSIC made even greater impacts during the 3060s, when the
organization discovered evidence of spy communications leading back to House
Marik and the Free Worlds League. Though they’d picked up the spy’s initial
trail, the organization could find no further leads. It was not until the guilty
individual, Buford Olman, confessed on his deathbed that the identity was
revealed. Buford had been dying of radiation poisoning after a Cobalt-60
nuclear device had been triggered against the Strider’s Strikers during a
training campaign. Borg himself had insisted they hold an immediate hearing
for Buford, but the rest of the unit voted unanimously to let the spy die in peace.
Borg’s greatest victory lie in the controversy surrounding the unit’s founder
and commander, Mike C. Strider. The SSIC discovered trace evidence of
computer files regarding the assassination of the Blakist leader responsible for
the destruction of the Strider’s Strikers Wasat base. When Borg was finally
able to pin the dishonorable tactic on Commander Strider, the interrogator
realized the grim consequences that such accusations were capable of causing
for the Strider’s Strikers as a unit.
Though Borg was prompted by Star Colonel Carns to discover the identity of
the actual assassin, Borg kept the information to himself, never revealing the
individual’s identity to protect the team from harming itself further. In the end,
Mechwarrior Alexus Capone admitted to her role as the assassin. However
Borg and the SSIC were unable to convict Alexus before she too died of
radiation poisoning from the Cobalt-60 incident.
