Mission overview:
Upon touching down on the planet, we've been intercepted by Lieutenant Liran who explained to us the situation. The colony has been harassed by native species of ambush predators known as "Rippers", creatures of wide and relatively flat bodies which thrive in both aquatic and arboreal environments. They have a tendency of swarming their targets and as the Lieutenant said at one point they've attacked with a strength of three dozen specimen. Lieutenant mentioned that aside from regular ones there are ones that are much larger and posses thicker hides, causing them to be resistant to normal powered blaster bolts. Our best bet of removing the threat was getting rid of the Matriarch which should cause the Ripper host to scatter, and just so it happens their nest was in a cave system, not far off the Silooth Scars' encampment. Given the number superiority Rippers had, the Lieutenant has spared us five of his best men, one of which going by nickname Camo, was our guide through the jungle.
The trek wasn't that long, yet despite that the constant trickle of impending danger was present and it wouldn't reveal itself until we've finally got to the maw of the cave. Once stepping into it, the Rippers have taken us in an ambush, successfully killing the four members of the mercenary group with relative ease. The creatures have come in a swarm both from the cave and the trees, posing a significant threat to the team. And as the fight went on against almost indescribable amount of the Rippers, the earth has stirred with a shockwave caused by, what turned out to be, the Matriarch.
Causing the swarm to run, the Matriarch was a startingly large creature, most likely due to it's age which might've also caused some mutations. This is prompted not just by an increase in size but the thickness of her armor shells, spikes on the back and a seemingly endless supply of razor-sharp teeth. Though, the most worrying part of it was how fast this creature was, especially when considering it's size. This became even more apparent given how easily it has caught up to Camo, who used a jetpack to get away only from it, only to end up eaten by the Matriarch.
However, her sacrifice didn't go in vain, as Camo in a last stand against it, used a grenade to blow up while being swallowed by the Matriarch, causing the creature to flee and marking the last death of the Silooth Scars who have gone with us. Ultimately, the swarm's gone and Silooth Scars have suffered a loss, prompting the operation to be considered a failure, the Lieutenant is still open up for negotation when it comes to joining House Horuset's powerbase.
That is all.
