The Blade is the Kindred’s signature fighter. Blades are used for the most important, most dangerous and most illegal missions in the Tri-System. They are particularly common when the Kindred is interested in performing a high level assassination – their extensive weapons array allows them to engage multiple target spheres in a single operation. Because of the thread now faced by the Kindred, the military offers a double bounty for destroying Blades.
