Dark Horse Bureau

These ten individuals represent those in the Special Projects Division who survived the initiation into the Broken Pattern. Alan Smithee

Despite the seeming dendaro affinity for the Broken Pattern, the most skilled of the "Dark Horse Bureau" is Alan Smithee, the same human who originally discovered it. He has pushed the edges of the barrier in research, and has done some things that concern many of the higher-ups in the Special Projects Division

Med is a gau who is one of the more skilled of the psionic arts that are practiced among them. Though among the more advanced students of the Broken Pattern, his real groundbreaking work has been his attempts to combine gau psychic ability with Broken Pattern.

Geng's last name can be translated best as "Arm-Render". One of the barzali dendaro (the four-armed gorillas), he has not been among the most proficient of Broken Pattern users. Some believe that he's staked out a spot in shadow where he can kill things as he will. His current assignments tend to revolve around using Broken Pattern to enter secure facilities and beating the crap out of the occupant.

Menlil is a marna dendaro (the whale/dolphin dendaro), and has gone into semi-seclusion after her initiation into the Broken Pattern. It is rumored that she has a hideaway among the island chains of dendar, but it is unknown for sure. She tends to drift in to things when she feels like meddling in government affairs.

One of the two whistlers who has taken the Broken Pattern, he is rumored to be exploring the connections between the Flaw and shapeshifting, if any. There are rumors that he has forged mysterious alliances with beings from beyond the dimensional borders of Telluria, but it is unknown who.

Ammonia is the most enigmatic and secretive of the Bureau. He tells none of the others what his plans are. None know of how strong he is in terms of Broken Pattern, or what other abilities he has at his disposal.

Fez is a velchoran, a race of lizard-like monkeys, being 1 meter tall, with thin limbs, a prehensile tale, and rough brown-green scales covering his body, with a horned crest around his head. He is the most irresponsible of the Bureau, and is said to spend far too much time seeking a "good time" off in shadow.
