Background

<Stellar Intelligence - Target Summary: Xiang Mackenzie - Excerpt - Prepared by ████████████>
*This file is out of date — please verify your security clearance for access to the updated records.*
Status: Unknown, assumed alive.
Xiang Mackenzie is or was a former CyberIntelligence agent for the pre-Fall government of Singapore. There is little available information her early childhood beyond a summary from the ISD records (see attached), the body of which was lost. School records tell us she recieving unexemplary scores at the public education facilities, but was cited for illegally accessing the academic servers in eight and eleventh grades, and was expelled at the second offense. The local domestic securty agency arrested her a year later after learning from an informant that she was accessing government systems, and she entered the foreign intelligence service to avoid facing jail. Mackenzie recieved several awards for her work before moving to the Cyber Intelligence division shortly before the fall, where they performed poorly against the TITANs but better against their own government, managing to secure an escape for their ego backups before Earth fell.

She was recruited by █████ shortly after Stellar Intelligence was formed and performed admirably █████████████████████, resulting in her being flagged for evaluation by PsychOps. █████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████.
Her cortical stack was destroyed in the incident, but her official backups were found to be useless, and the copy ███████████████ was physically destroyed. Most of the records relating to the ISD were also damaged or missing, although replacements have since been procured from other sources. This additional damage makes it unlikely ██████████, instead ████████████████████████ a runner.

After initial efforts by the corperation failed to trace her, a sanitized record was forwarded to several Ego Hunting agencies and remains on file. The reward for her capture was increased after ███████████████████.

<Project Ozma - Personnel Briefing: Min Xue / ███████████████ - Excerpt - Prepared by ███████>
Min Xue is the current guise of ███████████████. She works as a Private Detective in Noctis-Qianjiao, having moved from the Valles Marineris four years ago. She frequently hires herself out to Ego Hunters, having earned a strong reputation for reliability and skill as a skiptracer and for being picky about which jobs she accepts. She came to attention of ████████████ after being hired to assist in an Ozma operation under cover as a job from Direct Action, but a lucky break by ██████ uncovered her real history and status as a runaway from Stellar Intelligence.

Even though she refuses to answer to her original name, the outgoing bounty on her ego proved to be an excellent negotiating chip during recruitment, and should serve as a good ace in our hand if she gives us trouble in the future. Her own idealistic tendencies match reasonably well with most of our goals, but could require careful handling in some cases. Her personal obsession with conspiracy theories and VR games should be carefully monitored to make certain it does not jeapordize any Ozma missions.
