Borg...
Taking pride in his work is probably the best way to describe Borg.  Not only is he
an elite pilot with excellent marksmanship and the ability to control his Mech in the
most violent of circumstances, but he is also a proficient interrogator.  Currently
involved in both his star's activities and the Strider's Strikers Intelligence Corps,
he leads a busy lifestyle.  Trained in both mental and physical interrogation
techniques Borg can usually wring the information needed out of a prisoner one
way or the other.  Although frowned upon both by Colonel Strider and Star Colonel
Carns, his abilities have often brought home important tactical information and
both commanders have been known to turn a blind eye to his usual methods.  His
abilities have brought him under scrutiny from several of the House intelligence
branches and The Word of Blake's faction of ROM.  Security is high around him
and his star at all times to protect this valuable asset.
Borg has had both major successes and major failures in his time with the Strider's
Strikers Intelligence Corps.  The brainchild of Mural Rye-Del and Borg, the SSIC
first gained major footholds within the team when the organization discovered
evidence of the coming invasion of Wasat by Blakist mercenary groups.  While
both Strider and Carns had initially scoffed at the idea of such an invasion of so
minor of a world, the commanders were forced to realize the truth in Borg and
Mural's warnings as an increase in the number of Blakist attacks grew ever more
apparent.
Borg and the SSIC made even greater impacts during the 3060s, when the
organization discovered evidence of spy communications leading back to House
Marik and the Free Worlds League.  Though they'd picked up the spy's initial trail,
the organization could find no further leads.  It was not until the guilty individual,
Buford Olman, confessed on his deathbed that the identity was revealed.  Buford
had been dying of radiation poisoning after a Cobalt-60 nuclear device had been
triggered against the Strider's Strikers during a training campaign.  Borg himself
had insisted they hold an immediate hearing for Buford, but the rest of the unit
voted unanimously to let the spy die in peace.
Borg's greatest victory lie in the controversy surrounding the unit's founder and
commander, Mike C. Strider.  The SSIC discovered trace evidence of computer
files regarding the assassination of the Blakist leader responsible for the
destruction of the Strider's Strikers Wasat base.  When Borg was finally able to
pin the dishonorable tactic on Commander Strider, the interrogator realized the
grim consequences that such accusations were capable of causing for the Strider's
Strikers as a unit.
Though Borg was prompted by Star Colonel Carns to discover the identity of the
actual assassin, Borg kept the information to himself, never revealing the
individual's identity to protect the team from harming itself further.  In the end,
Mechwarrior Alexus Capone admitted to her role as the assassin.  However Borg
and the SSIC were unable to convict Alexus before she too died of radiation
poisoning from the Cobalt-60 incident.
