- Role: War Beasts
- Permissions: N/A
- Links: N/A
- Age: Tiara is three and Crown is two
- Force Sensitivity: Non-Force User
- Species: Magn-Vermanii
- Appearance: Tiara and Crown are two Magn-Vermanii females, each a mother to a small swarm of Magn-Vermanii males that either swarm around them or cling onto their fur. You would not be able to tell either is young and in their prime, their hide is heavily scarred from past experimentations and combat and their natural appearance causes these large rat-like companions to look filthy and deranged. If left alone these two typically turn violent, attempting to escape what ever restrains them and give into their base instincts, but around Ysolde they are almost docile, obeying her whims and protecting her with their lives.
- Name: Tiara is officially logged and referred to as "Omicron Agent 01" and Crown is referred to as "Omicron Agent 02" within Eternal Empire official documentation
- Loyalties: Loyal to Ysolde and Ysolde only
- Notable Possessions: None
- Personality:
- Training: Tiara and Crown lack any official training, but due to Ysolde's ability to directly connect to each's mind, and thus the mind of their offspring, she is able to control them very precisely and command them to do complex tasks.
- Combat Function: Tiara and Crown are war-beasts, meant to accompany Ysolde and what ever small squad she is working in to both boost their numbers and add a number of tactical advantages. Due to Ysolde's ability to connect to the Magn-Vermanii collective-mind she can perceve through their senses, using the smaller males as scouts, distractions, or fodder to draw fire away from the squad and the much deadlier Magn-Vermanii females. The larger females, Tiara and Crown, are able to easily gnaw through duracrete and durasteel, adding extra mobility options to Ysolde and whichever squad she is tied to.
- Force Abilities (Force User Companions Only): N/A
- Brood Mothers: Both Tiara and Crown have their own broods, each numbering about 30 to each so 60 in total. These broods are part of a pseudo hivemind and listen to the commands of their respective mothers, and thus the will of Ysolde
- Quite the Bite: Tiara and Crown have a powerful enough jaw and bite to gnaw through durasteel.
- Technically Feral: Tiara and Crown are still wild beasts and have only a small connection to Ysolde, so if she were to become unconcious or even die the two of them would have no qualms about attacking previous allies while under her control.
- Kill Switch: Although seen as a strength by the Eternal Empire government, Tiara and Crown have small chips implanted in their brains connected to a remote given to the squad leader of whichever squad Ysolde is a part of. This remote allows the chip to instantly dump a large amount of tranquilizer in both Tiara and Crown, causing them to fall unconcious only seconds later. This is used encase Ysolde is to go down and prevent the two Magn-Vermanii from beccoming a danger to allies, but it wouldn't be impossible to steal or hack the remote from a distance.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Tiara and Crown were brought in during the initial tests of Ysolde to see if she could control them throughout the experimentation. It was only in the latter years of the experiments, when the two Magn-Vermanii could be fully controlled. Later experiments had far more difficulty, and it is believed that Ysolde cultivated a relationship of respect with them rather than attempting to dominate or control them outright, causing them to be more trusting of her and her control.
