The Lancer known as Osprey was, until recently, the premier infiltration expert operative of the ZAPS. He has spent the majority of his life and career working to advance Guardian interests through the clandestine arts, but thanks to the Zaps Corruption Hearings he is now unemployed and sleeping on Roxanne's couch in Albrook.

Osprey is believed to have been born among the other Lancers who cultivate a noble, shamanistic culture high on the summits of the Denadoro Mountains. Osprey has himself once or twice mentioned in passing that he is from Denadoro Prefecture. Census records from Denadoro have been searched through to no avail in an attempt to learn more of ZAPS's most notable infiltrator. It is likely that Bekkler either had the records destroyed, or polymorphed them into a bowl of pudding which he then fed to his pet gopher Lucius. The former is assumed to be the case.

Osprey, like many others of his inclining in the ZAPS, is a master of Gatian Shadow Magic. For years Osprey was the pre-eminent ZAPS spy and infiltrator, sent by Bekkler himself on a number of important missions to gather intelligence and uncover secrets. In his early career, Osprey had something of a flare for the dramatic, and would always leave a single grey feather left behind, usually wedged in under a window sill or in a bookshelf, after completing a mission.

His arsenal consists of (among other things): an enchanted Katana known as Shiva's Edge, Shadow Magics, an assortment of throwing stars, various smoke pelets, assorted Ninja weaponry, hooks, rope, knives, and a powerful itch powder concoction. Osprey never uses guns, as is typical of many of ZAPS's agents. (although he did once, in a classic post I just put up, but that time it was okay because... well, because. --M )

Previously, Osprey has worked with such notables as the Shield and Manta. He was highly active during the periods of the OmniSent Conflict and the Cleansing Wars; the former as a counterintelligence operative working against Rudra Tairen's best agents, and the latter as a resistance organizer (with other ZAPS agents) in Porre, coordinating with the GA 10th army's siege efforts there.

More recently, Osprey took part in the Defense of Egmont, where he met up with the Shield, Fara Somers and Roxanne. He was then eaten by Grendel, after which he moved in with Roxanne and became her permanent house guest. During the ZAPS Corruption Hearings, Osprey and several other top-shelf ZAPS agents were fired by Bekkler. So now he is Roxanne's permanent unemployed house guest.

Places Osprey has Applied/Interviewed for Work

  • RFIA (Tasnican Intelligence)
  • S/31 (Scandian Intelligence)
  • KIA (Kuvallan Intelligence)
  • Forge Mechanicals
  • Splatdonald's
  • That hardware store down the street from Roxanne's house
  • The Albrook Zoo
  • DalMart
  • Frank's Toasters (best deals this side of Albrook's Toaster District)
  • The Kleingold Family (looking for a dog walker)

WHO IS THE SPY?

Osprey has, in the past, demonstrated incredible amounts of loyalty... to his employer. Since being fired by Norstein Bekkler, Osprey's had a really hard time finding new employment. ... But what if all that's just been an act? What if he actually HAS found a new job, working for the Master of Mana? He is a trained spy and infiltrator, after all; wouldn't he be adept at deceiving his friends if it furthered the interests of his new boss? Could Osprey really be the spy?
