Arkangel doesn't tolerate failure, and neither does Ascension Company."[^2] - Ascension Company "We request the presence of Ascension Company."[^3] - Campbell <br> ### Description When the impossible becomes a threat, Ascension Company is the answer. A classified wing of [[Arkangel|Arkangel's]] corporate security forces, every member of this group is trained in the use of branded exosuits, with physical enhancements harvested from the [[Boreas]] laboratory's top-secret Project Pallas, bringing human potential to its cutting edge. Ascension operatives are highly mobile and trained in shock-and-awe tactics, assigned to obliterate threats to the company with less than 24 hours notice. They live and work entirely off the grid, rotating through private Arkangel bunkers to complicate exterior surveillance and sabotage. Recruitment is limited but brutal--90% fail to make the cut, and Arkangel doesn't like leaving around loose ends. [^1]: This is likely the motto of Ascension Company and loosely originates from the "No Antidote" store bundle description: "Sting deep and leave no survivors with the elite members of Ascension Company. Become the best that Arkangel has to offer." [^2]: This quote almost entirely originates from the "Hot Spot" store bundle description: "Hit hard and finish the job clean. Arkangel doesn’t tolerate failure, and neither do you." [^3]: Featured in a [[False Flags|memo]] to Arkangel CEO Henry Blackburn.
