Mission Details:

The mission itself is fairly straightforward. There is an anathema located on the Blessed Isle, she has been under surveillance for a time. Normally a Wyld hunt would be called for, but it she is located in a more populated part of town and the Immaculate Order would prefer to keep the furor and potential destruction which can occur when a Wyld Hunt is called out. The Sidereals who are involved in the immaculate order would like to see her terminated in a quiet manner with minimal collateral damage and disturbance of the populace. Traditionally, it would be a single experienced sidereal, possibly backed up by a few summoned elementals or little gods from Yu-Shan. However for this occasion they have chosen to send this band of sidereal initiation candidates. The Bureau of Destiny has officially sanctioned this mission. Apparently the Anathema, if left to her own devices, would have disrupted the Skein.

The Anathema is currently located in a room at a small inn, The Quiet Repose, the local constabulary have been asked to surround the Inn and wait for your orders. These men are mortals, and should not be misused. Nor should they become aware of the supernatural nature of Sidereals.

Subtle Wickedness is beleived to be one of the Rhaksha, although a relationship hitherto unknown with the Yozi or Malfaen enemy should not be entirely ruled out. She is known to be fairly potent, and particularly adept at escape. She has eluded over a dozen Wyld Hunts sent to terminate her, though her combat abilities have not had a lethal impact on any members of these hunts, she should be considered armed and dangerous. Mortals are no match for her.

Her Reasons for being on the Blessed Isle in a location near the Impereal city are unknown at this time. She is a being outside of fate, but was able to conceal her arrival on the isle by some means.

You mission is to locate and terminate her. Due to previous encounters, capture of this Fae is discouraged.
