Blades of Espada

The Blades of Espada was a unit that was headed by the forbearer of the name, Espada Benvora. This particular unit served as a behind the scenes assassination and clean up operations. Established years before the Necros War, it saw heavy service during the war, resulting with the most casualties they had before being assigned. One notable feature was that membership was only exclusive to the Benvora Lineage even though Angelis Mako was made into an honorary member. The subgroup, Shields of Espada, was another faction created within the group. This particular group was established by the Medicine and Strategist specialist of the Blades of Espada, Doctolin Benvora as he saw a need for Defensive Specialists that could defend and cover the Group while they were on the offensive.
==Designation==
Originally to be a Melee Unit headed by Espada, it was later given the roles of a Special Ops Team due to their enhanced muscle fibre and stealth systems and professionalism. Later on, the role of Hit and Run Tactic were also added, as the entire group proved to be efficient in guerrilla warfare. This was proved when the squad was stranded. They were able to survive through through sustained hit and run attacks whick heavily weakened the opposing forces. After several days, reinforcements came to rescue them along with destroying the rebelling forces.

===Early History===
With special request from the higher ups, Espada was given permission to create a squad fo his liking. The squad was aptly named the Blades of Espada, as Espada had each of his member upgrade their frames to incorporate a BLADE SYSTEM. The Blades of Espada were originally supposed to use melee weapons that including several gun blade variants but ironically, this proved to be insufficient in the missions that they partook in. Thus, each member had to add another weapon system that corresponded with their system such as high caliber rifles, transformation models, frame integrated weaponry and defenisve measures.
