The Universe can be an unpredictable and dangerous place, which was exactly what Ph'shr Ryyce was counting on when he resigned from his position as a T.U.5.C.C. Security Chief to start his own private enterprise called The Shadow Circle. Nicknamed the "Adventure Squadron", this team is called in to assist with rescue missions, item acquisitions and retrievals, security details, or other jobs where a diverse set of skills and a commitment to discretion is required. While many would assume that The Shadow Circle are mercenaries willing to work for whomever will pay their fees, the reality is that Ph'shr is very selective in the assignments he accepts. There are carefully calculated reasons behind the clients he works with and the alliances he has begun to forge, for in a universe that is unpredictable and dangerous, who you know and who owes you favors can be the difference between life and death.
