Operator Tundra arrived at one of Rhodes Island's Leithanien branches seeking employment as a doctor and a researcher, but lacked sufficient documentation. She was accepted after showing consistent extremely high scores on aptitude and rigorous medical knowledge tests. Despite her casual and somewhat lethargic attitude, Operator Tundra's history and psychological profile suggest an intelligent yet troubled mind.

Imaging tests have shown the outlines of her internal organs to be indistinct due to abnormal shadows. Originium granules have been detected in her circulatory system, confirming her to be infected with Oripathy.

Operator Tundra has clearly visible Originium crystals on the left half of her body and scattered across her back.

Due to the operator's lifestyle choices, her infection is far worse than it should be. She must be monitored so her condition does not worsen further.

After conducting a cursory investigation, we have found records of an individual called Dr. Lorelei Rath in Leithanien newspapers. This person, a tall Elafia woman with brown hair, won several awards a few decades ago in the fields of medical research and Arts application. Her research appeared to have been conducted independently, but she suddenly disappeared about ten years ago.

This time period matches the amount of time the Operator claims to have been working for a Spire of Leithania.

With all but complete certainty we can conclude this Dr. Rath is Operator Tundra's true identity. When approached by a logistics worker on the topic, Operator Tundra simply smiled sadly, closed her eyes, and left. Whether we should continue investigating is up to the discretion of Dr. Kal'tsit and Amiya.

The medical department is at their wits' end with Operator Tundra.

Despite being a member of the department herself, she has displayed a consistent tendency for oversleeping, poor diet, and smoking, on top of signs of psychological conditions such as PTSD, all exacerbating her Oripathy. As of late due to a concerted effort from her own co-workers, her cigarette usage has dropped quite dramatically from multiple in one day to merely one every few days.

We will continue to monitor her condition.

"They're really over-exaggerating with all of that 'unhealthy lifestyle' stuff." —Operator Tundra

"We're not. What kind of doctor smokes in the office!?" —A Medic Operator, to a full room of others who made sounds of affirmation

By the Operator's own admission, the reason she was removed from the Spire was because of her contracting Oripathy. While working with active originium in a laboratory, the sample suddenly and without warning exploded unnaturally violently. The originium shrapnel lodged into her back and left arm instantly made her condition dire.

She admitted that she was not officially removed, but she resigned on her own immediately and left Leithania. Based on her scarce descriptions of her research, it is possible she feared for her own fate upon becoming an Infected.

We suspect that this "accident" was no accident at all. But why? Why intentionally infect such a talented researcher?

Tundra herself, as always, avoids the topic.

Tundra's specialties are spread more widely than some. She is a medical doctor and a practitioner of healing Arts, as well as being well-versed in the mechanisms of pain and infection. These are the skills she brings to the battlefield, if reluctantly. It can be safely assumed that these skills were also used in Spire research, although the application of such abilities makes the mind wander to dark areas. Healing arts are used to assist healing and regrowth, but what happens when you're regenerating something just to remove it again...? Like the Columbian labs that operators like Rosmontis were extracted from, ends justifying the means always paves a path of blood.

She hesitates to participate in any research projects of any kind concerning Oripathy, even now that she's with Rhodes Island.

Instead, she prefers to slack off and shirk her duties.

Confidential Record

"I'm a coward. You can tell just by looking at me, can't you?

Yes, I conducted horrible, unethical experiments in Leithania, sponsored by the nobles. The victims of nearly every test were Infected. The worst of it I never saw, but I saw enough. Casters using Arts through the Infected like wands, originium development and growth for commercial purposes... And then they get disposed of...

...Sorry, it's making me sick.

But I did the work anyway... you know? Because I was offered such a prestigious job, because they paid unbelievably well, because they could easily track me down and force me to work on it anyway—They're all excuses. If I really cared I would have left as soon as I saw the first 'patient.' No, the truth is, it's because they said I was useful. I know myself. I would make the same mistake twice.

That's how awful I am.

I went into this work thinking I'd make a difference. And I just might have—Only, I was making the world worse.

Tell me, Doctor. What do you think I should do now? Should I really keep working?"
