"Money grows on trees. But, all the trees are in Myria!"

Ursatec is a Velksan industrial conglomerate that serves both the military and civilian market.

Their famed pharmaceuticals division is known to produce the best stimulants!

They have big contracts with the Velksan military, and Ursatec stims are a favorite among the troops!

(at least that's what the marketing team says)

There's just something about their stims, their formula, that hits harder.

No, this isn't like the synthetic SLOP that other companies churn out. Ursatec's ingredients are ALL NATURAL AND ORGANIC!

The truth is, the mythical fauna that roam the world of Ygdras are being harvested for their body parts and fluids.

Only the most powerful companies are able to pursue these options, and Ursatec has an entire department for it.

Ursatec Search, Extract, Cultivate Department (USEC)

USEC functions as Ursatec’s operational backbone in the acquisition of magical reagents. It is divided into three specialized divisions:

Search: This team is responsible for scouting and surveying locations for extract as well as tagging high valued fauna.

Extract: This team is responsible for acting upon Search intelligence to either kill or capture mythical fauna.

Cultivate: The farming / ranching team for low-risk / docile flora and fauna. They provide a steady stream of low grade magical reagents.

Extract

Those a part of the Extract team are known as "Rohstoffgewinnungsspezialist" or "field resource extraction specialists".

They are usually former Velksan military personnel, discharged and looking for the next chapter in their life.

| The Addict |

| Senior Field Resource Extraction Specialist |

| 27 yo |

After a tour in the military, Lara brought home with her combat skills and a crippling addiction to stims.

During her years as a junior specialist, she would sneak bits of magical reagents to get her fix until she was eventually caught.

Of course, Ursatec turns every weakness into a strength. Lara was a perfect subject for the latest cocktails thought up by the lab!

So to help her get her fix as well as perform in her job, the R&D team supplies her with experimental stimulants regularly.

Lara likes to take trophies. One that she's particularly proud of are minotaur horns, which he has affixed to her helmet.

| The Hag |

| Principal Field Resource Extraction Specialist |

| Night Entity Certification |

| 34 yo |

Vanessa is a former VSB operator that was discharged after an injury that left her hobbled for a couple years. After rehabilitation, she sought for work and found that Ursatec had a need for her skills. Using her experience from night raids and patrols, Vanessa has been fundamental in hunting down "Night" variant fauna.

Ursatec's optics division has given her special "Rotaugen" goggles to help her in her hunt, which allows her to track down the most elusive of creatures.

Brunhild "Gnome" Messer

| The Fool |

| Field Resource Extraction Specialist |

| Psychological Entity Certification |

| 23 yo |

Brunhild is a former tanker. She suffered a head injury when her Schattenlied was rocked by an MBR "Stonesling", flipping it onto its side and sending personnel and equipment tumbling within. The mana core pulsed near her head and sent a shock through her, changing her forever.

Brunhild was discharged after being deemed, "tactically ineffective" and miraculously recovered in rehabilitation for a month.

She regained most of her function, but it's clear that she has a few screws loose. Fortunately for her, this has helped her in her new role. Fauna that affect people psychologically do not affect Brunhild, and she can effectively kill and capture them for Ursatec.

| The Intern |

| Field Resource Extraction Intern |

| 19 yo |

Amelia is a biology student from the Polytechnic University of East Dornstadt. She originally applied for the internship position available on the Cultivate team, but when she got hired on, they suddenly switched her over to Extract!

Now, Amelia totes around a rifle and kit between classes, a bit embarrassed about her internship and jealous of her classmates that got the positions they wanted.

But she can't deny that being on the Extract team has taught her much about both the insides and outsides of living things, mythical or not.

Together, they're part of the Extract Team of USEC

Mythical Fauna

Level 1 - Docile / Low Risk

Small to mid-sized fauna (herbivores, pond/woodland denizens) that can be trapped, sedated or netted with minimal force.

A menial task for most hunters. These are reserved for new members or those recovering from dangerous hunts.

Level 2 - Standard Risk

Territorial predators or large vertebrates.

These creatures can be killed with small arms and can be hunted down solo or by a pair of hunters.

Level 3 - High Risk

Apex predators / semi-sentient fauna with organized hunting behavior, partial elemental affinities, or hazardous secretions.

These creatures usually require heavier weapon systems and a team of hunters.

Level 4 - Extreme Risk

Colossal beasts (dragons, wyrms, leviathans or equivalents)

Joint "Research" Operations are conducted by Ursatec and the Velksan military to fell these gigantic beasts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Variants

Night

Nocturnal or light-sensitive mutation exhibiting heightened aggression, altered pigmentation, and superior stealth or sensory adaptation.

Psychological

Exhibits direct or indirect cognitive interference. Capable of inducing hallucinations, emotional contagion, or psychic distress in nearby personnel.

Other Risks

Though companies are able to operate outside of Velksa's borders, it doesn't necessarily mean that other nations are happy with that.

The war in Myria is both an incredible opportunity and a danger for extraction teams.

Those working in Myria will need to look out for Myrian infantry, MBR operators, and other threats while they hunt their game.

Scenarios

You can be anyone. Join the girls on the hunt, oppose them, or be one of their prey!

My Corner

A tribute to the GOAT himself.

:temtoo_is_so_hot:

It's a bit light hearted compared to the Post-Magic Warfare series' regular tone, but I thought it'd be fun to see how Velksa made some of their stims and show one of the reasons why they're pushing into Myria.
