From behind Numina, unnoticed unti now, emerges a small, impeccably dressed halfling. Please do not mind the Mistress sirs, she does tend to get rather exciteable when war is mentioned. I fear her emotions circuitry may be overheating again.
He gives her a long suffering and well known look which says Quiet dear, you are making the fleshbags nervous again.
He steps forward and shakes everyones hand, Archibald Task, at your service sirs. I make arrangements for Mistress Numina, help her integrate her artiifcial intellligence with those of us of a more biological persuasion. She means well, mostly, but it seems early on in her life she spent rather a lot of time on a Vesk Battlecruiser. I have no idea how, or why, but it had a significant impact on her early development. Now I help her relate to the people of the Pact Worlds. I also cook.
Archibald is my hireling. He does bluff, diplomacy and intimidate at +15 thanks to the efficient administrator
