Tokugawa EDO: Vice President Special Executive Division
Young (20 years old) gifted and ambitious Edo has worked in both
Arasaka's US and Australian subsidiaries before returning to Night
City in early 2021to take control of the Special Executive Division.
Charismatic and athletic Edo eschews the personal use of cyberware
and runs the department like a giant game of chess, second-guessing
his opposition's strategies and co-ordinating complex, multi-part
counter-moves. While he has deputies at Arasaka's other offices
he deals with the most important operations personally.
Mihoshi KOBU: Edo's Personal Assistant
Despite being surrounded by death and deceit on hourly bases Mihoshi
retains a child-like innocence which makes her seem younger then
her eighteen years. Friendly and trusting Mihoshi is dedicated to
Edo and Arasaka's master plan. A fan of all things paramilitary
she collects "Solo of Fortune Magazine" and can quote "The Book
of Five Rings" and "The Enforcer's Handbook" with equal ease.
Tani MINAGO: Field Commander
Titular head of the renegade Minago Ninja Clan (marked for death
by the other clans for their expectance and use of cyberware) Mr.
Minago is Edo's most trusted agent. Highly trained in both classical
ninja skills and modern espionage techniques, using extensive cybernetic
enhancement and the latest weapons-technology Mr. Minago has a reputation
for never failing. His most important task is the "retirement" of
Special Executive agents who have been compromised.
BANE: Field Operative and Bodyguard
A hulking mass of muscle and cyberware Bane is the lynchpin of any
direct assault the Special Executive needs to launch. Bane carries
a number of powerful firearms and is extensively armoured. His fearsome
appearance also makes him an ideal bodyguard when Edo leaves the
security of Arasaka Tower. An easy opponent to underestimate Bane
is as fast as he is strong and highly intelligent, making him an
unpredictable and devastating enemy.
Bishamon MASHIRO aka VIPER: Field Operative
Viper's primary field of expertise is assassination and he is very
good at it. While competent with most firearms his true skill is
with sniper's rifles, in which he is unparalleled. He is a master
of disguise; his talent enhanced by customised cybernetic implants
and is trained in electronic security and demolitions. When not
operating on his own he will often be assigned to intelligence gathering
teams to provide firepower.
Kassa IRIGOWA aka SOVEREIGN: Field Operative
Sovereign is a veteran soldier with years of experience amongst
Arasaka's world-famous security wing. With the Special Executive
he is employed in either operations which require direct assault
or assigned to intelligence gathering teams to provide firepower.
Competence and dependability best describe his operational style.
He makes minimal use of cyberware.
ICARUS: Field Operative
Some people were born to fly; Iccarus was born to soar. A lifelong
love affair with the internal combustion engine means that if it
has wings, fans, rotors or wheels Iccarus can make it dance. Within
the Special Executive Iccarus is employed mainly to insert and extract
field operatives under any conditions as well as conduct vehicle
based surveillance. He also serves as Edo's personal chauffeur.
Natsumi KIYOMIZO: Field Operative
A mystery, the only thing that can be said about this young lady
is that she is the most dangerous woman in America.
FURTHER INFORMATION CLASSIFIED
Han DAE aka SATO: Intelligence Operative
An accomplished fixer with a web of contacts spanning America and
reaching beyond, Sato finds people who would rather not be found
and unearths secrets people would rather were left buried. A vital
part of the Special Executive Sato provides much of the data on
which Edo plans his strategies. An unspectacular combatant he is
often backed up by one or more field operatives when in the field.
Thomas WOOD aka FLASHPACK: Intelligence Operative
Though a decorated former US Marine Flashpack sees little actual
fieldwork. Instead he provides technical information on his two
areas of expertise, electronic security systems and demolitions.
He also turns his talents to identifying any unusual technology
the Special Executive encounters in the course of their operations.
CHARITY RIVERS: Intelligence Operative
Few members of the Special Executive are given as much freedom as
Charity Rivers. Though considered a corporate sell-out by her contemporaries'
no one would dispute that she is amongst the top ten net-runners
in the world. Her talents are used in all phases of operations.
From the gathering of information through data-theft to net-cover
during intrusions and assaults her skills are used. She never goes
into the field and seldom leaves the security of Arasaka Tower.
