It was my responsibility to look after their families.” - Lis “Angel ran a small crew recovering and selling data drives. He asked me if I wanted to join. The money was good, and it helped me provide for those families.”[^1] - Lis “We found the smoking gun. Operation: Steadfast Refuge. It was being run by the Americans out of the Black Ridge base. They were responsible for the Blackout.”[^1] - Lis “If you want me to be honest - fuck the Dark Market. They infected Poland like a cancer. I’ll never forgive them for that.”[^2] - Lis <br> ### Description As the daughter of wealthy parents, Lis experienced an upbringing more privileged than most of her peers. She attended the prestigious Nord Anglia boarding school and initially did well in her studies. However, her educational performance began to decline as world events worsened and her own country became embroiled in crisis. With a growing desire to do something with her life that mattered, Lis defied her parent’s wishes and enlisted in the Polish military. Despite being cut off from her family, Lis forged ahead with her decision in the hope that one day her family could forgive her. As Europe disintegrated, Poland eventually collapsed. Lis, now a member of Poland’s elite special forces, headed up one of the few remaining GROM units, helping government officials restore order. Their main task was targeting [[Codex/Organizations/The Dark Market|Dark Market]] bases that were flooding the country with weapons. Lis and her team were on a night raid infiltrating an illegal weapons compound when [[Codex/Key Events/The Blackout|the Blackout]] hit and scrambled their equipment. In the mayhem that followed her entire team was wiped out - only Lis escaped with near fatal injuries. As Lis recovered, she threw herself back into armed combat and vowed to help the families of her fallen comrades with whatever money she could make. This led to a meeting with a [[No-Pats|No-Pat]] called [[Codex/Specialists/Constantin "Angel" Anghel|Angel]] and an opportunity to make cash by trading data drives to the highest bidder. While attempting to offload some intel, she learned a [[Codex/Battlefields/Exposure|secret base in the Canadian Rockies]] and its connection to the Blackout. Lis finally had a chance to find those responsible for the death of her team. While the Black Ridge mission failed to provide living culprits, the facility was at least destroyed - Lis could be sure nothing like the Blackout would ever happen again. That was until she reconnected with Angel and discovered the [[Codex/Profiles/Exodus|Exodus]] was hunting a No-Pat leader named [[Codex/Profiles/Loyiso "Oz" Okusanya|Oz]]. He’d used the Dark Market to sabotage Black Ridge and steal plans for a new weapon. It looks like Lis’ mission is just getting started. <br> **Key Dates** 2014 - Born in Gdańsk, Poland 2032 - at 18, joins the Polish military. 2035 - at 21, advances into Poland’s elite special force, GROM. 2039 - at 25, undertakes missions to target Dark Market strongholds. 2040 - at 26, survives the death of her unit and goes on to support their families. 2041 - at 27, meets No-Pat Constantin Anghel. 2042 - at 28, undertakes a mission to the facility responsible for the Blackout.
