Firefight: Asterian Black Talons

Black Talons are a highly specialised variant of the Cyphers, built for rapid airborne assaults.

With built-in personal flight units, anti-grav suspension, adaptive sensors, and armed with modified Noh rifles, the Talons are swift and silent predators.

Although membership of this enigmatic group usually prevents them from gaining any leadership roles within their Clade, the Black Talons are still respected veterans whose opinions and knowledge is sought after by Cypher Primes, Overseers, or even Shu’uvatars.  It is a rare occurrence, but some Black Talons are elevated to Primes where they can utilise their battlefield experience to lead others.
