Vanauken's Vandals Character Profiles
Bad Blood sees the introduction of the elite Pathfinder unit Vanauken's Vandals:
The Mobile Infantry is the single greatest fighting machine ever to shed blood in battle, enforcing order across the fractured worlds of the Federation. The Pinnacle of that achievement, the very tip of the spear, is the MI Pathfinder. Specialists in counter-terrorism, high-risk reconnaissance and unconventional warfare, Pathfinders routinely take on missions deemed impossible for regular MI.
"With all due respect he was regular M.I., and he got bushwhacked, we are Pathfinders--
which means I can guaran-damn-tee we'll get a shot off."
Sergeant Curtis Majeski
