Elias

   
     LCARS TERMINAL / CHARACTER FILE
   

Description Elias Brody carries himself with the unshakable calm of someone who believes he is always on duty. His wardrobe is dark, clean-lined, and subtly futuristic — and when he turns, a Starfleet communicator badge flashes from behind his lapel. His grey-blue eyes flicker as if tracking an invisible HUD, always calculating and always processing. Talking to him feels like being addressed by someone still half-standing on a starship bridge. RP Hooks Subspace Static: Elias pauses mid-sentence to answer voices no one else hears. “Stand by — Command is transmitting.” Information Broker: Knows things he shouldn’t — Kindred secrets, encrypted mortal intel, and long-view patterns no one else has connected yet. Silent Analyzer: Elias quietly studies someone for a long moment before speaking. “Your behavioral pattern suggests unresolved tension.” Atmospheric Scan: Elias has an unnerving habit of naming tensions in a room before they erupt. Maybe he reads you a little too accurately. Do you ask him how? Or tell him to stop? Ringmaster’s Shadow: Elias collects stories about the Midnight Circus — sometimes urgently, sometimes fearfully. If you know anything or want to investigate with him, he’ll quietly welcome it. Soundtrack Interstellar Overdrive – Pink Floyd Chaotic, drifting star-charts translated into sound. Starman – David Bowie A strange, hopeful transmission from somewhere above the clouds.

       Stardate 2401.3 — Arrival in Houston Sector
     

       Initial insertion into the Houston Domain complete. Local command structure resembles
       a fragile coalition of planetary governors all pretending the same star chart is accurate.
       Recommend continued observation and discreet data acquisition before making any overt moves.

     
       Stardate 2401.7 — Midnight Circus Inquiry
     

       Persistent anomalous references to a roaming phenomenon designated "Midnight Circus".
       Correlates with Masquerade stress points and unexplained disappearances across multiple domains.
       Hypothesis: mobile subspace disturbance embedded in a cultural meme. Request additional assets
       for covert reconnaissance before further engagement.
