This memorandum is to serve as a debriefing of the incident involving the Mattoon facility and the risk assessment of the situation and those involved. Concerning the surviving Special Tactics And Rescue Squad (hereby referred to as S.T.A.R.S.) members a warrant has been issued for their arrests and the media has been snowballed quite successfully. We believe they may be headed for the Mexican border; the situation is being handled currently. The information in this correspondence is as detailed as possible, and we have taken great lengths to ensure the accuracy of the information provided.
Known Surviving Division 8 S.T.A.R.S. Members:
Leon "Doc" Mire
Clyde Powell
Exavier "Ex" Rolly
Dane Torias
Rowan Edgewater
The following backgrounds have been provided to aid in assessment and profiling. The local police departments have furnished the most up to date records willingly.
Background Checks:
1. Leon K. Mire
Age: 30
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 197 lbs.
Hair: Black – Mid-length
Distinguishing Marks: None
Relevant Skills: This officer holds degrees in chemistry and microbiology as well as minor certificates in the following sections: criminal justice, education, and mathematics. His physical abilities are above average as is to be expected from any of the S.T.A.R.S. members. He is known to carry with him a paramedic's kit and supplies and often provides tactical and medicinal information to his team.
Social Profile: Easily labeled as the brains of the operation this officer has the habit of gaining the tactical advantage through intelligence and persistence. His knowledge of chemistry and biology has proven to be bothersome in the past as he as prevented himself and his team members from being easily infected by the SOLANUM virus. He is known to be anti-social and keep to himself much of the time; he lacks the social skills necessary to be tactful and sometimes comes off as harsh or uncaring.
2. Clyde M. Powell
Age: 28
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 160 lbs.
Hair: Brown – Long
Distinguishing Marks: None
Relevant Skills: Officer Powell had recently had his badge reinstated after a lengthy suspension for misconduct unbecoming an officer. His background is hazy at best but it is known that he served as a Rent-A-Cop before he gained his position at S.T.A.R.S. and became involved in this incident. He has a S.T.A.R.S. trained background in explosives and small arms counter fire tactics. He has been known to fashion IED's as well. His abilities are a threat to our operations and bomb prevention security procedures have been put into place at all the remaining facilities. His equipment includes the standard police issue 9mm. Berretta and officers equipment for a S.T.A.R.S. member.
Social Profile: It is said that this officer has a strange sense of humor and often has been put on record as making inappropriate comments at the expense of perpetrators. He has also been known to get in heated discussions with his superior officers over matters of duty and obligation. Though his hot headedness gains him a lot of clout on the battlefield it serves him no purpose in a working environment. However his loyalty remains to his comrades and it is unlikely to be swayed, also it is reported that he is often made fun of by his peers for his previous occupation.
3. Exavier J. Rolly
Age: 28
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 175 lbs.
Hair: Brown – Short
Distinguishing Marks: Ornate Roman IV tattooed on middle-back area.
Relevant Skills: This officer is perhaps the most well trained member of the division 8 S.T.A.R.S. members. He is an ex-military member who served under the Army Special Forces as a sniper. He holds several marksmanships records in the military one of which being the all time high for his battalion. He was discharged from the military after a botched assassination attempt in the Middle East. Since being inducted into S.T.A.R.S. he has proven to be most adept at sharp shooting and close quarters combat. He also holds a black belt in Kenpo Karate, which he received prior to his military career. His equipment includes and bolt-action long range carbine rifle, it is rumored to have a modified sight with custom designed crosshairs; and a pair of twin 1911 A1 Colt 45.'s.
Social Profile: His nickname is derived in part by his full name and in part by his military service. He has a morbid sense of humor and does not normally act like a trained military officer, however when the situation prompts it he is all business. His ability to remain calm under extreme duress has made him a powerful force on the division 8 unit and his marksmanship has ended many difficult confrontations.
4. Dane Torias
Age: 25
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 215 lbs
Hair: Blonde – Disheveled
Distinguishing Marks: Several miscellaneous tattoos
Relevant Skills: Serving as the heavy arms expert of the S.T.A.R.S. squad this officer has a pretty squeaky clean record. He has worked in a factory setting and has experienced knowledge of heavy machinery as well as heavy weaponry. From a tactical standpoint his size is an advantage over most opponents. Also it is rumored that this officer has procured a rocket launcher by means of an overseas trip to Africa. These claims are as of yet unsubstantiated. It is unclear why he joined the S.T.A.R.S. team, but it is rumored that he did so to ensure a safe and clean environment for his son. He brings an important element to their team, the mechanic element; his ability to work with machines is invaluable.
Social Profile: This single father of one is motivated highly by his desire to ensure that his son grows up in a safe environment. Ironically his past is rocky and having many run-ins with the local law enforcement in his younger days. Reckless and sometimes foolhardy he often gets himself into difficult situations and usually needs to be rescued by his partners, though he has been known to simply muscle his way through the opposition.
5. Rowan Edgewater
Age: 23
Height: 6'0'
Weight: 180 lbs.
Hair: Black – Short
Distinguishing Marks: None
Relevant Skills: This officer brings the element of radio communications to the group. He holds a bachelors degree in telecommunications and radio operations. He has a background in small-scale electronics and holds several certificates in electronic fields. He has been known to whip up radio transmitters and tracking devices with very little materials, and he is a vital key in information to his group.
Social Profile: He is the rookie member of the team and the youngest; he catches many jabs for this and has a somewhat jaded view of his friends. Though his loyalty is unshaken by the hazing his sense of humor is a bit off kilter and closely resembles that of Exavier's temperament. Those two get along increasingly well and it is rumored that "Ex" has been training Rowan in long-range rifle firing. His knowledge of electronic devices never ceases to amaze and his fellow S.T.A.R.S. members often toss him random pieces of junk to see if he can make a working device out of them.
Threat Assessment: Level 4 – These men are to be considered dangerous threats, and security has been beefed up at all of our facilities, though it is assumed that they are on the run. Until their exact location can be confirmed our security measures will remain in place. Research will continue as scheduled on the SOLANUM project, however, as mentioned security is now definitely a concern.
