Born in Iberia, Andreana serves as a bodyguard to Operator Incandescence. The two joined Rhodes Island together.

She came with a strong foundation as a sniper. After receiving professional training, she has served well as a Sniper Operator.

Imaging tests reveal clear, normal outlines of internal organs, and no abnormal shadows have been detected. Originium granules have not been detected in the circulatory system and there is no sign of infection. At this time, this operator is believed to be uninfected.

Operator Andreana has no signs of Originium infections.

Operator Andreana rarely comes into contact with Originium.

A laid-back Iberian.

She tends to be slow to speak, and shows little on her face. When Andreana first came to Rhodes Island, she was mistaken for the quiet, uncommunicative type. But after getting to know her, and seeing how caring this great listener is, that impression quickly collapsed.

While Andreana speaks often of Iberia, she and Incandescence came to us through a branch office in Rim Billiton.

Of course, this is to be expected, considering Rhodes Island does not and cannot have an office in Iberia. In fact, there's only one kind of Iberian we find outside Iberia, as far as we know——the ones who decided to leave. Incandescence, Andreana and their respective families left Iberia together to settle in Rim Billiton. The two submitted their resumes to Rhodes Island not long after.

As for why they brought their families, Andreana appears troubled when posed with the question. She insisted on learning to shoot, despite her family's objections. That troubled their relationship and she ran away from home, where she met Incandescence. But in the end, family ties are tough to break. The two families ultimately made contact and agreed to leave Iberia as a group.

Andreana's hobbies certainly draw the eye. Particularly the gun she is never seen without.

When she first joined Rhodes Island, her weapon perplexed many of our operators who were familiar with guns— Questions such as: 'She's a Lateranan who looks like an Iberian?' 'Did she rob a Lateranan? Such a badass?' 'Iberians can use guns too?' swirled around endlessly. After all, Blacksteel's guns are assumed to be some kind of corporate secret, but a non-Laterano freelance mercenary strutting around with a huge gun gets people talking.

Of course, everything becomes clear once you see her shoot an inkball out of that thing. Apparently, it's a modified crossbow made to look like a gun. Because Andreana is a committed firearms enthusiast.

According to her, Laterano culture has had a strong influence on the Iberians, who often display an affection for it. After seeing one of the statues in church as a child, Andreana fell in love with the weapons, and devoted herself to mechanical engineering in hopes of making a crossbow in the style of a gun, since she lacks the affinity for Originium Arts necessary to use a real one herself.

But there is a point here worth examining, and one Andreana herself did not realize. She mentioned that she was dragged into court over the weapon several times, only to be chastised when it became clear it was not a real gun. That seems reasonable. But with the limited information we have, the Iberian courts should be very powerful. And for such an organization to grab her 'several times' for something known to be harmless the first time indicates that they may have been using it as a pretense to find something else.

However, since we lack reliable intelligence about the internal politics of a country closed so long to outsiders, we are not able to form any concrete judgments about the situation. And since, at least according to Andreana herself, she has not been harmed or unnecessarily interrogated, we leave the matter to speculation.

[Classified Log]

It was clear that while Kal'tsit had a detailed knowledge of both Skadi and Specter, and even seemed equally familiar with Andreana, the rest of the Medical Department staff, including Warfarin, knew little about them. And just like with the others, Kal'tsit determined that Andreana's presence at Rhodes Island would not be adverse. Or at least that the benefits of them joining us would outweigh the potential harm. Otherwise, they would have been found inadmissible.

As for me, I don't know what the story is. Haha, Kal'tsit actually said it would be okay to tell me, but I refused. Knowing too much can get you in trouble. I'll leave this one to Kal'tsit.

What I took from her is that the difference between Andreana on one side and Specter and Skadi on the other is something like that between a drop of ink into clear water and a proper inkwell. The drop of ink is itself an infringement on the dignity of life, to the point that Kal'tsit expressed clear disdain for it: 'There are those who have reached their hands into places they do not belong. Those for whom this stupidity is very much in character.'

Regarding Andreana's strange physical condition upon encountering Operators Skadi and Specter, as well as the similar Arts deficiency she expresses, Medical has performed several physical examinations using different methods and approaches.

The results showed no new information. We were only able to conclude, once again, that she is a lot stronger overall than the average person. To use Dr. Warfarin's phrasing, 'What the hell? At this level, we can't compare her to Skadi's physique at all.' While there is some ambiguity in that statement, it is true that when compared to Skadi, Andreana's physical prowess could well be explained by better physical development. There are always those who are naturally strong. Let's just say that making her a Sniper Operator may be a bit beneath her. But Rhodes Island won't interfere with her personal choice.

All in all, after confirming no anomalies in her physical condition, the matter has been closed. But, to be on the safe side, Medical still recommends Andreana receive regular checkups.
