Description
Most people here have heard about the recent events surrounding some of our TAC-COMPS, particularly unit 728. In the interest of everyone's safety I would like to explain what is going on as well as some new safety procedures.

Right now, Unit 728 is the only TAC-COMP without an active cognitive control system. The EMP from the Childeater bomb as well as the various tumors that resulted from the radiation both destroyed his original cognitive control system and left his brain in such a off-spec state that we're no longer sure how to reinstall the controls without causing further damage. Furthermore, he has fulfilled his end of the service contract, making it illegal to install any control device without his consent. Unfortunately, he has not consented.

Unit 728 has thankfully opted to continue working with INFOPS in a consultant capacity. For our part, we will provide him with any maintenance and services he requires.

Currently we are keeping him in his original UMH-3A chassis. We are in a bit of a bind here because none of the other TAC-COMPS have met the requirements and we are effectively defenseless against other hives. We're hoping he can train the other TAC-COMPS into something resembling effectiveness, but until then he's all we have. Furthermore, he has exhibited dismay at the thought of being reinstalled into a forklift.

Unlike other TAC-COMPS unit 728 has displayed symptoms of what appears to be Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder. I have been working with him in controlling this, however the nightmares are a continuing problem. He is fully cooperative and otherwise fine while awake.

As a result, we currently have an uncontrolled UMH-3A equipped with a TAC-COMP in Warehouse C with PTSD. If you are unfamiliar with UMH-3's they are 3.3 meter tall heavily armored demiorganic chassis that punch faster than the speed of sound. Furthermore, TAC-COMPs are generally capable of cracking even the most secured systems and are far more intelligent than a baseline human. As a matter of fact, while sleeping he is approximately as intelligent as a baseline human but is incapable of distinguishing between his dreams and reality. I'm sure you have all heard of the "cheesepumpkin" incident by now. It was funny at the time but the chance of a similar incident happening in the midst of a more violent delusional is too great.

Like all TAC-COMPS he requires at least one full week of sleep mode for each week of activity. Slightly more is preferable for him. All sleep requirements are fully detailed in document OSP Paragraph 2.1. However, due to his off-spec mental state we need to take far more precautions than normal during his sleep cycle.

We have installed physical switches between the TAC-COMP and the chassis, this effectively renders him paralyzed until the switch is turned on again. Their use is further detailed in a separate document that will be sent to his handlers only.

The important thing to remember is that we have an extremely capable occupant in Warehouse C with delusional tendencies while sleeping. For the safety of everyone here we have enacted the following new rules and policies:

-No devices capable of any form of information storage or communication are allowed in Warehouse C. This includes personal augs. We have installed scanners at all entrances but require your cooperation. We've hired several new unaugmented employees specifically to work in Warehouse C. Anyone caught breaking this rule will be dismissed.

-Two unaugmented employees will accompany Unit 728 and perform the paralytic procedure before sleep prepping him.

-Warehouse C is now equipped with a faraday cage, please report any visible damage to ADA or a representative.

I hope we can all work together to make sure our high safety and health standards are met.
Sincerely,
ADA

In case anybody thinks there are too many acronyms here, I dare you to read a military document. I dare you. I'm not even using half as many as a real document would have.

Anyways, Babyface! And a new character, Joel, who is utterly and completely unaugmented unless you count wearing shoes as transhumanism (which is a fair thing to do if you really think about how shoes augment a lot of human abilities).

This was largely a test of a new digital rendering style, which failed because I was trying for speed. I have to learn to sketch things out first.

Would anyone like me to upload a document on the technology and social situation of Babyface's world? I've heard a few questions about it, is there anything in particular you'd want me to answer?
