Not every militant is as bloody-minded as Hail, but perhaps they don’t know their appointed commander half as well as you do. You’ve fought back-to-back with the man for the better part of a year now, and the two of you have the measure of one another. He’s a soldier, adaptable and open to any dirty trick or level-headed wisdom that will further his aim. Watching him now, proposing measured military responses designed to draw out and bleed the Savis advance, you would never guess that the man would burn the whole world if it mean seeing a few more slaver bodies chucked on the pyre. But you know him better than that, and you can tell that whatever scheme he has cooking up it’s going to be voidjumps beyond the sensible strategic suggestions he’s making to the Council here.
The Libertans are a larger faction, but far less consistent in it’s compilation and voting on each issue. These are the true believers, the ones that genuinely believe in the glorious revolution or the righteousness of their stand against the tyranny of their oppressors. You’ve seen the pamphlets around camp, extolling the escaped slaves to never give up hope and to fight on to the end with their liberated brothers and sisters in arms. At least some of the more realistic ones admit that death is likely, but sugar it with the promise that their defiance will inspire others all across the galaxy. Last you heard from the LT, the conflict on Dis is rarely even makes the headlines in Fed space other than for some finger-pointing and hit pieces.
It’s hard to call her the main speaker for the faction, given how much it shifts on each issue, but a major spokesperson for the Libertans is one of the first rebel squad leaders you trained in jungle warfare, the Drax Kerim’O’Kas. She speaks passionately and earnestly, though not always usefully, and you can tell that she is convinced to her core that fighting on to the very end is the right thing to do here. Her sub-faction, one that advocates a bloody end and somehow buying time for the most vulnerable to escape, is one that is growing significant steam in sentiment but keeps butting headfirst into the practical impossibilities of doing so on a meaningful scale for the refugee camps.
LT’s briefings talked about them a lot, their support, or at least enough of it, is usually key in securing any major consensus. The trouble is that the idealist faction seems too malleable for the briefing to hold true from issue to issue. What might have their ardent and zealous support in one issue could just as quickly have their staunch and undying opposition on ther very next subject. Wasp points out that, in addition to formerly being your subordinate, Kerim’O’Kas and your own Trooper ‘Bones’ Armstrong have become fast friends over the course of the Dis campaign. You might be able to draw on that connection with her sub-faction for some consistency.
