Yikes about the delay, Arkain.  Sorry about my own lateness in looking at this thread.<br/><br/>The Chimera Project Division are a bunch of scientists that are mostly looking for files and biological samples on the base that could help them clone a Tailmouth.  They're convinced that the Tailmouth naga ability to unbirth and change other species will lead to a breakthrough in genetic engineering.<br/><br/>This group was supposed to only find the older base and get its location to the project.  If they do that there will be a bigger group to search the base for the biological samples.  They're not too keen on trying to catch a Tailmouth themselves (especially after seeing what we did to the base).<br/><br/>Of course, if they die, the only choice for the project is to try to find a new mage and make another scout team (Easier said than done with the forest's reputation for disappearing expeditions).
