I'm not sure why the names won't come back — the rest of the records are mostly there, or nearly there, but the names just... won't. I've submitted a query to the Continental Registry three times. I'll keep trying. Filing continues.

Designation: Response Band (provisional — I believe this is correct) Specialism: yes Clearance: I will find out Commendations: [to follow]
Roster:
-
Gurgles the Brewster — gnome, brewer-druid, approximately 3.5 feet. Calm in a crisis. Extraordinary with animals. Already in the field.
-
Kaytag — human fighter, very tall, intense. First words on record: "The toilet." Restrained me for safety reasons on the first day. I have filed this under good leadership instincts and am not revisiting it.
-
Yesbellis Spell — human bard, previously of "Yesbellis and the Spells." Iridescent cape. Rhymes his incantations. His lute has saved his life at least once. (Note: he has claimed to be CEO of H.E.R.O. He is not CEO of H.E.R.O. H.E.R.O. has no CEO. I have included this clarification because I have been asked to include it several times now.)
-
Jorgina Tayloris — half-elf, emerald eyes, extremely observant. Carries herself like someone who already knows how everything turns out.
Notes: These four are currently the highest-ranking operational field personnel in the Organisation. I want that to be on the record. I also want it on the record that they showed up. All four of them, when it mattered, they showed up.
