Leo’s aggressive impulses must be moderated, as they tend to mani-
fest themselves as overconfidence to the point of arrogance. Because
of his ability to physically exceed fellow Stage 2 trainee Klara Sparks,
he has convinced himself that he is the “star pupil” of the SOR pro-
gram. It is hoped that exposure to fellow trainees Billie and AlexD will
help Leo attain a more realistic appraisal of his own capabilities.
Because of his interest in military specialization, Leo has been allowed to
participate in a limited number of low-level security operations. In the
field, he has so far conducted himself in a disciplined and efficient fashion.
Klara Sparks
Position: SOR Resident, Stage 2, Seattle Facility
Status: Active
Klara Sparks, sailing through her studies with
alacrity, has also demonstrated a degree of
empathy far surpassing any of her Stage 2
counterparts. She shows great potential for a
career in negotiation or conflict resolution.
Klara is charismatic, with a genuine affection
for both her fellow residents and her instruc-
tors. She is an excellent motivator of others.
Her loyalty to the Tarsus program and her
commitment to its ideals are absolute.
Klara’s main drawback as a trainee is a tenden-
cy to subordinate her own progress to that of
others. In fact, her close friendship with fellow resident Leo Jankowski
has evolved into an almost co-dependent relationship, with Leo domi-
nating Klara’s achievements in order to validate his own imagined
superiority, and Klara holding back from her full potential in order not
to threaten Leo. It is hoped that reintegrating Leo and Klara with the
New Chicago Stage 2 trainees will break this cycle, and allow both to
progress more according to their respective potentials.

Billie Adams
Position: SOR Resident, Stage 2, New Chicago Facility
Status: Active
In many ways, Billie Adams is both the most
and the least successful of the Stage 2 SOR
residents. On the one hand, she has
absorbed her Stage 1 academic and physical
training with an efficiency, and to a degree,
that demonstrates her suitability for Stage 2.
However, her behavioral adaptability is far
less encouraging.
Adams grew up in post-Collapse Old
Chicago, and her early experiences on the
streets left her cynical and hardened, with a
particular mistrust for institutional authority.
Her impulses have frequently led her into
conflict, bordering on insubordination, with
her instructors. However, she has been retained in the SOR program
due to her high competency, as well as her

.
Billie has shown an interest in subversive thought and organizations
that must be carefully monitored. She has formed a quasi-familial
affection for fellow Stage 2 resident AlexD, which can perhaps be
used to moderate her more volatile traits.
Leo Jankowski
Position: SOR Resident, Stage 2, Seattle Facility
Status: Active
A top performer, Leo Jankowski has consistent-
ly shown an extremely high level of assertive-
ness, as well as remarkable loyalty and an
unusual degree of suggestibility. These traits
combined suggest that he is uniquely qualified
for a future in military field operations. His
physical prowess is exceptional, while his aca-
demic achievement can best be described as
adequate. His highest academic achievements
have all related to biomodification science,
probably due to his great eagerness to com-
plete the biomodification process.
