Kepler a fait semblant de regarder, plus soucieux de sauver le visage, que d'observer le mécanisme d'Otto au travail. Les rétorques de l'enquêteur ont été piétinées. Ils ont été livrés avec une confiance modulée qui a même surpris Mako, qui ne pouvait pas aider à sourire d'oreille à oreille. Le scientifique était rouge betterave alors qu'il trébuchait pour faire un retour, mélangeant dans une fausse toux et un rire gênant d'essayer de maintenir un semblant de confusion.
"Eh bien, je vais devoir faire quelques tests supplémentaires avant de pouvoir l'approuver." Kepler s'est exprimé en essayant de se sauver devant ses cohortes, qui étaient tout aussi embarrassées pour lui. Il interrogea de nouveau les bancs de travail d'Otto. "et rangez votre espace de travail! Si vous faites semblant d'être un inventeur, agissez au moins." Kepler a marché avec les deux autres scientifiques en remorquage.
"Jamais un moment ennuyeux avec toi, Otto." Mako a ri. "Je dirais ne vous inquiétez pas pour M. Kepler, mais ce serait redondant de ma part. Il n'a jamais appris à descendre de son cheval haut depuis qu'il a repris mon poste d'assistant du Dr Isaacs et Hartwell. »
Otto demanda alors à Mako comment allait sa rotation, qui immédiatement cliqua sa langue et cria désapprobation. "J'étais mère poule jusqu'à deux de ces 2 ans." Il a pointé vers le bar. "Nous avons été stationnés à Eastbridge, affectés à patrouiller un quartier près du mur en réponse à quelques rapports de patrouille frontalière sur une observation de Wraith. Il y avait un esprit particulier qui brassait dans ces parties, un esprit en colère. Disons que nous avons tous de la chance d'être de retour en un seul morceau." Mako a tapé sur son pack de confinement. "Mais merci pour la mise à jour. Je serai plus confiant de sortir sur le terrain la prochaine fois que je dois garder."
Name: Ezekiel 'Bones' Walters
Age: 34
Gender: Male
Occupation: Police Detective
Investigator Rank: 1st Class
Appearance:  Ezekiel is quite pale, almost sickly, (hence the affectionate nickname) but his confident stride and animated blue eyes show a man of purpose. He's rarely seen without a bowler hat that covers a slicked-back pompadour hair style, nor a three piece suit tailored to his wiry musculature. 5'10 and 175 lbs.
Personality: The Aegis Luna-born city slicker is a driven workaholic, the type of man you'd hate going against, but love to have on your side. He possesses an other worldly talent to quickly assess situations and problem solve accordingly. Sly-tongued, but not pretentious like some upper class bureaucrat; years spent working brutal cases on the force saw to that. He exudes a calm, yet predetorial-like demeanor, and is unafraid to break the rules to achieve his goals.
Biography: Ezekiel came roaring out of the police academy with top honors. He worked his way up from beat cop and was promoted to detective within a span of two years. The 53rd Precinct had jurisdiction over most of the outer shell districts of Aegis Luna. The crime activity in these parts were significantly higher than anywhere else. Ezekiel worked various cases involving drug and human trafficking, but the one he is most known for is capturing the Skin Mason. He was a bonafide serial killer, whose MO involved skinning victims alive and then draping said skin around monuments and statues across the city.
There were other obscene cases he worked, but that one always rubbed him the wrong way. What made it worse was that the man was later identified as Harvey Bloom, nephew to Secretary of Defense Anthony Jacobs Bloom. Ezekiel's findings on their relation was met with a lot of scrutiny by his Captain, who wanted to keep that piece of information hidden. Bones was having no part of it, as there were various pieces of evidence during the Skin Mason investigation that hinted at Anthony's involvement. Of course, before Ezekiel could investigate further, the Mangled Ones attacked Main District, putting everything on hold.
He was initially set on reenlisting into the military, but Professor Hartwell convinced him to join The Consortium. The supernatural horrors unfolding within Aegis Luna went against his entire belief system. He felt compelled to join this specialized brigade of do-gooders and put his analytical mind to use in uncovering the truth behind these strange happenings.
