Description
The Covert line of the Voyagers of Karsus were designed as shock troops and stealth ops, equipped with crossbows that weaponize the terror inflicted by an unseen predator. There was only ever 200 C-Types created, and since Karsus' Folly, their numbers have dwindled further. However, the services of those that survive are highly valued among any crew, kingdom or company that knows of them, meaning they are paid handsomely as mercenaries and assassins, and it is usually easy for them to find a crew willing to bring them along.
