GOLD COMPANY
GOLD COMPANY
Gold Company is the name for a special initiative by the Jade Intelligence Agency Network. Overseen by Director Leslie 'Les' Daub', Gold Company aims to assemble the most powerful and well-known heroes of the Laptev Axis to create a unique fighting force. Gold Company is informally known as Les Daub's Golden Fuckmachine and is stationed in the ruins of the Krak De Axis, the abandoned citadel of the Order of the Watcher. It currently consists of operatives from Ingen, Imaginarium and Ystovia as well as agents from the former states of Federal Katasia and San Alejandro. |

LES DAUB
The Director of Gold Company, Les Daub is an enigmatic figure whose personal background is largely unknown, although speculation abounds. He is in charge of all strategic operations carried out by Gold Company and has the direct ear of the Director of the JIAN. He reputedly has a vast collection of golden statues of minor sporting personalities that he personally created. His favourite drink is known to be 'mild' and he has been documented exhibiting psychokinetic powers. He claims to speak to the dead, but only about ice hockey. |
Gold Company's primary mode of transportation is a modified civilian vessel known as the ForTran14, which originally belonged to Les Daub. The vessel registry records it as having been used by a small firm selling jetskis and other recreational watercraft before being requisitioned by the military. Les Daub was the subject of a 2471AT documentary by Sir David Cattenborough entitled Travelling Through Time; The History of Hypercocaine.
CHA-CHA AND HAZEL
Assassins? Thieves? Spies? Dectectives? Sex symbols? General rogues? All have been used to describe the pink dog masked Cha-Cha and now disembodied Hazel. First spotted as operatives in “Operation: Chaos” in the destruction of the Krakohzian Union, the duo’s ridiculous and quite frankly insufferable nature brings with it an altogether more sinister connotation. The secret agents of death of the Imaginariumese state, a path of destruction lays in their wake. The deadly duo’s entire time line is unknown, partly because they’re tightly held state secrets, partly because it’s impossible to track their entire actions, and partly because for some reason, they seemingly live outside of time in some form of void. It’s for this reason and this reason alone that it is not known why the dog faced character known as Cha-Cha carries round the animated head of Hazel, although the aforementioned Doggo has stated on record that it really allows them to develop a “sidekick vibe”, much to the annoyance of the Blue Bear Head. Never one to miss an opportunity, the duo’s appearances are sporadic and unexpected. It is rumoured that they can be summoned by lighting a circle of candles and incense, although this may be just theatrics. Either way, when the prestigious Gold Company looked to Imaginarium for recruits, it was the duo’s names that were scribbled down on a piece of paper, and handed to the right authorities along with the sentence “Just, please try and put up with them…”

GODFATHER DEATH
Known only as Godfather Death, an alternative to his product name of PM-I8-014, the Ingenious contribution to Gold Company is a Frame, a Real Artificial Intelligence housed in a fabricated body. As the first complete, final-iteration Frame produced by Project Mercy, the project notes for the development of Godfather Death's personality matrix have been heavily redacted and are buried deep in the Imperial military intelligence archives.
Godfather Death currently inhabits a seven foot tall Frame with a distressingly skeletal appearance. He typically wears a hooded black robe and speaks with a receieved Swadian accent. He was assigned to Gold Company primarily because he made everyone at IdaiTech uncomfortable and nobody at JIAN headquarters wanted him either. His technical notes are also not available to the general public, but he is believed to have laser weaponry built into his eyes, which are in fact not his primary photovisual receptors at all. Nobody knows where he sees from. He also possesses monumental strength and physical resilience, and is rumoured to have a miniaturised Slipgate generator installed in his Frame. With considerable processing power and a seemingly endless capacity for delivering unlooked-for proverbs and sayings, he is used for much of the strategic work of Gold Company.

KOMMISAR JURGEN PRAUßT AND DR R. POCKET
Praußt’s position in the Fuckmachine is a recent development; indeed, something of a fig leaf to cover for recent acts unbecoming of an officer and a gentleman. Once the top of his class in the Iconoclasts, the officer Corps of the Ystovian Army, and widely touted for leadership, Praußt was swiftly and quietly reassigned as an attaché to the JIAN after an a “botched” raid against Space Pirates who had been harassing mining operations. The less said about it the better, suffice it to say that if one must order the butchery of every man, woman and child in an enemy settlement, he should avoid doing so on live television, and crucially not keep anything in his pockets that would resemble an erection. Praußt is the quintessential Ystovian officer. Sharp, austere and a stickler for orders, he has a penchant for violence and good whisky - which he drinks a lot more of since his little embarrassment
Dr Pocket would be the pre-eminent authority on a good many things, were he not a parrot. It is unclear which bureaucratic loopholes he exploited to gain access to the top universities despite not being human, but his numerous degrees and doctorates (in the fields of military theory, psychoanalysis, ethics and xenosexuality) attest to a remarkable mind behind his thick red and blue plumage. He has joined the JIAN alongside Kommissar Praußt as part of a research agreement; he lends his expertise, and in return gets the pleasure of auditing the Kommissar on a monthly basis. The Kommissar resents this.

LT. COL. NORMAN CHECKNYA
Formerly a top state security official for the mega corporation turned nation state Jennings & Rall, Security Officer Norman Checknya made a name for himself raiding union meetings, breaking up strikes, and infiltrating eco-terrorist organizations with ruthless efficiency. When Jennings & Rall was acquired by the Laptev branch of SA Energy Inc., Checknya came with it. Immediately recognized as an invaluable asset by the Alejandrian Intelligence Service (at the time a top secret government organization hidden within the company), Checknya was granted a promotion to Special Agent 3rd Class and sent on a series of dangerous missions against enemies of the state. Checknya earned 2 armillae and the Caesarian Laurel Wreath, San Alejandro’s highest military honor, for his role in dismantling the Scaramucci Crime Family. As Checknya’s salary demands increased, he soon found himself in the employ of the only one willing to pay for his services, the Caesar of San Alejandro himself, Francis I, Laptev’s richest man. Under the Caesar’s guidance, Checknya led an elite, hand picked team of international commandos against a shadow organization of terrorist networks across Laptev, which were eventually destroyed over the course of a long campaign. With so many accolades over his career, Lt. Col. Norman Checknya (Callsign “Triumph”) was an easy choice on the short list to join the prestigious Gold Company. Caesar Francis approved Checknya’s transfer to the Gold Company to help secure the interests of the Laptev Axis. He serves with the Gold Company today.
