Terra Sentinel Report on Subject
[REDACTED]:
A drifter who runs a popular online travel blog, "The Sights of the World", which has been online since OE 90. Described as warm hearted, jovial, and kind to a fault, the man known as Gail O'Brennan speaks little of his past, and when he does, it is with a somber smile.
He supposedly hails from Ireland, and speaks of growing up in a "troubled household", but otherwise his life prior to being documented in his videos is something of a mystery, and no evidence exists of anyone matching his description existing in Directory territory at any time. What is known is that he has a great deal of connections - friends across the globe who know and welcome him readily into their home... though according to his videos, he seems to prefer camping outside.
Gail allegedly makes very little money off his site, and relies chiefly on donations to continue traveling. These donations have been traced to banks located in empty buildings, or that haven't functioned since OE
[REDACTED] - yet he still seems to have access to some kind of cash flow. He uploads videos of himself at various locations around the world, such as
[REDACTED], meeting people, visiting and touring local sites of interest, and penning articles that illuminate the history of different areas.
Of great concern is the content of what he produces, though it is (thankfully) ordinarily undetectable by the average viewer.
Gail's photos, videos, and columns occasionally illustrate previously unforseen - and highly accurate - insight into historical events long past, locations and
[REDACTED] that should otherwise be unreachable, or is aware of details on various topics that are considered highly classified. He speaks of these things in a friendly, casual tone - but his spreading of this knowledge has sent shockwaves through the Directory intelligence community, leading to much speculation as to his true identity.
It's rumored in online forums that he is related to another particular journalist, one who disappeared in OE 55 after reporting on the movements of human-sacrificing cults in the catacombs below Romania... But these speculations thus far seem without merit, as no concrete relations have been yet revealed.
Gail is currently wanted for questioning by the Directory for the aformentioned reasons, as well as concerning his connection to the mobile weapon "Asclepius", which has been sighted at various incidents dating back to OE 008... But so far, he has managed to elude capture, as well as censor of his website, with Directory agents always seeming to be just a step behind him.
Prototype Mobile Weapon: Asclepius
Affiliation: Independent
Combat Style: Fluid
Strengths: When engaged, Gail proves frustratingly slippery. He's excellent at avoiding attacks and turning them back on his enemies, using their own momentum against them, and fights with comfortable, practiced ease. He fights defensively, rarely going on the offense, as his goal is usually simply to evade capture - but when pressed, he is more than capable of high-speed assaults, long range strikes, and creative use of terrain to bring down his targets with startling proficiency.
Weaknesses: Gail is notably less evasive when going on the offensive, and his tendency to play it safe limits his effectiveness. Because of Asclepius' capabilities as well, armored foes or large targets are challenging for him to effectively deal with, and he is considerably more cautious around these. Engaging him with a mobile weapon capable of matching Asclepius and trapping him will force him to make a breakthrough, and expose himself in the process.

History:
A mysterious mobile weapon believed to be owned by Gail, one not pictured in his travel videos, and that has only been rarely seen over the years - but always at times of great peril and disaster, notably
[REDACTED] and
[REDACTED] in OE 0012. While it is not pictured taking part in these events, it often appears in the background, or in the aftermath of the incident, sometimes only a mere glimpse of it being captured by Directory cameras. Very little photographic evidence exists of direct encounters with it, on account of it being very rarely engaged.
Details of its inner workings are almost completely unknown, but witness reports describe Asclepius's capabilities as well-balanced, with it demonstrating extremely high capability in nearly every regard. It is highly agile, and is able to blitz foes with a dazzling series of rapid strikes almost invisible to the eye. It has also shown the ability to access what is believed to be a
[REDACTED] very similar to those of the
[REDACTED] series, located in
[REDACTED], and on at least one occasion may have instigated a deliberate
[REDACTED] through mechanisms we cannot even begin to imagine.
Who developed it, why, and how - are all unknown, but it exhibits characteristics similar to mobile weapons equipped with a
[REDACTED], making it of considerable interest to the Dimensional Energy Institute.
