"Some there be whom shadows kiss"
―Marka Ragnos slogan

Battleteam Marka Ragnos was formed following the dissolution of House Marka Ragnos into the newly reformed House Naga Sadow by Fremoc Pepoi in honor and memory of the once great house. Today the Battleteam stands as a way for those who wish to remain Disciples of Ragnos as well as a way for members to remain as Disciples of Sadow.

History

In 28 ABY, following the events on Tarthos with the Lost Tribe of Tarthos, it was revealed that Clan Naga Sadow was to be reorganized as a House resulting in the dissolution of House Ludo Kressh and House Marka Ragnos. With the previous Houses defunct, Marka Ragnos was reorganized from its previous foundings as a House to a Battleteam under the guidance of Fremoc Pepoi, the House's final Quaestor. As a Battleteam, Marka Ragnos stands as a smaller more intimate environment for those who wish to remain under the banner of Ragnos while retaining their Sadowan identity.

Headquarters

Marka Ragnos continues to operate out of the sanctuary of Mucenic and primarily the Temple of Ragnos at its center. While their usage of the Temple hasn't changed too vastly from their days as a House, Marka Ragnos as a Battleteam uses far less of the structure than before. While controlling and occupying many of the lower areas of the Temple, primarily the Catacombs, Hidden Hangers and Immortal Tomb; the team also utilizes sections of the upper regions like the Meditation chambers, training circles and Library which are also used by weary spirital pilgrims. There are still restricted zones of the Temple however such as the second floor, the invocation chamber and sections of the Library itself.

Team Structure

While the Team has been pushed more into a Special Reconnaissance or "SR" team, it is composed of four small four-man teams designated by their purpose within the Battleteam as a whole. While certain aspects of the Battleteam are used to SR activities from prior engagements under the Night Raptors or Night Hawks, the more militant and aggressive members of the team are not left out do to a Direct Action or "DA" element that co-ordinates with the other assets of the team or with other elements from the other Battleteams of Naga Sadow. Even with a singular DA unit attached to Marka Ragnos, the team still operates in its standard SR mandate of to not engage in direct combat. Traditionally they will observe and report enemy formations, or direct air or artillery attacks on enemy positions; if any team besides Delta has been discovered and is forced to engage an enemy formation, they have failed their objectives. This is not to say that stealth takedowns are not permitted when applicable.

Alpha Team

Alpha team is primarily the Support unit of Marka Ragnos lead by their Battleteam Leader. In a bid to keep the leader out of direct confrontation, the support arm of the team had been designated as the one under the command of the Battleteam leader; this was twofold as a) the Support team rarely encounters heavy resistance and b) the Battleteam leader is usually the highest ranked and most familiar with the team's operational procedures allowing them to bend the Support team's objectives to suit the need of the mission. Due to their nature of heavy stealth operations, Alpha is the least armoured and least armed of the Ragnosian elements. With their armour being restricted to heavy leather based armour or extremely light durasteel/duraplast plating and weapons consisting of varied bladed weapons along with the former Night Raptor's NR-Series silenced weapons.


Alpha team in its present formation is as follows:


Beta Team

Beta team is primarily the Infiltration unit of Marka Ragnos and is traditionally led by those who have trained under the Battleteam leader in some fashion; it is not uncommon for the team's XO to act as the squad's leader. As a more paramount and engaging unit within the team, Beta is one of the more common units to see combat out of the four squads due to their nature of being within enemy formations and more often than not tasked with sabotaging the enemy lines, defensive positions or supply lines. Much like Alpha, Beta is tasked with being a variable team with flexible members for any situations that may occur; as such they are equipped with heavier armour than Alpha but lighter armour than Delta. Additionally members of Beta team are usually equipped with the same weapon set as Alpha but are permitted to carry and wield heavier weapons found on the field or personal weapons that team members may utilize so long as they are not heavy weapons.


Beta team in its present formation is as follows:


Gamma Team

Gamma team is primarily the Exfiltration unit of Marka Ragnos and acts as an intermediary between Alpha and Beta squads. While not operating with an experienced officer like the other two teams, Gamma is normally led by a ranking member of Naga Sadow and explicitly follows the commands of the Team's CO. As the only team standing between a successful escape or impending death, the members of Gamma have a heavy burden upon their shoulders and are more often than not the best pilots of Marka Ragnos. Tasked with the exfiltration of all members of Marka Ragnos, Gamma primarily operates in aerial vehicles while on certain missions they are tasked with holding a specific location as a supply depot, exfiltration point or general clandestine observation point. Due to their unique nature, Gamma by all intents and purposes is an almost identical unit to Beta besides their operational parameters; as such they are granted to same weapon sets and armour as found on their comrades in Beta.


Gamma team in its present formation is as follows:


  • Morrigan Jarel Lilienkamp Fey; Sierra-3
  • TBD
  • TBD
  • TBD

Delta Team

Most fittingly, Delta team is Marka Ragnos' Direct Action formation. As one of the most unique aspects to Marka Ragnos, Delta very often operates with many other units within Naga Sadow to ensure their allies inside their team succeed in their mission. In smaller operations, Delta acts primarily as a diversionary team or as a strike team once a target or objective has been identified by Alpha or once Beta has successfully created a hole in the enemies lines. While not always a foolproof plan, Delta in conjunction with the rest of Marka Ragnos can create a formidable foothold for the other elements of Naga Sadow to utilize in larger missions. Due to their demands on the field, Delta is the only team permitted to wear heavy armour or wield heavy weapons in conjunction with any variation of weapon they need for the mission that they personally own. Due to their limited operational range and support, members of Delta must carry only weapons they can carry sufficient ammunition for during the mission.


Delta team in its present formation is as follows:

Trivia

  • Instead of moving the House Marka Ragnos page to incorporate the new Battleteam named Marka Ragnos, it was decided to create a new page all together so that the history of the House could remain so that when HNS becomes a Clan again there won't be a need for the Page to be moved again.
  • Mildly keeping in line with the former Night Raptors layout drafted under Methyas, Marka Ragnos as a Battleteam is a Special Operations Force for Special Reconnaissance (SOF-SR); this has also been selected as an attempt to slightly direct Marka Ragnos back towards its Krath roots without forcing members to be Krath
