Delta Squad

**Delta Squad** was one of the MVSF's most elite and experienced teams, famous for preventing the return of Erebus, and putting an end to Rick Gryphon's reign of terror. Originally a part of **Hunter Squad,** the future Delta Squad operated as their squad's B Company, and after many missions together, became a tight knit family. B Company gained infamy for temporarily defecting from the MVSF in order to intervene in the Rio Sapo crisis, but they would later be pardoned after helping save countless lives. By 2026, they had been transferred to the special forces division, where they would continue to fight back against the terrors of the cosmos. While several of their members would perish during the events of OPERATION: SENTINEL STORM, their sacrifice would help save the multiverse itself. Delta Squad played a critical role in the search for Xanos.

## Members

### **Delta 1**

Having fought in the Convergence alongside his multiversal counterparts, Ben Foerr of the Nexus Universe had a lot to live up to, and joined the MVSF to explore and protect the multiverse. Originally a recon specialist for Hunter Squad, Ben would come to lead the newly formed Delta Squad despite his defiant nature and issues with MVSF high command. Ben played a major role in OPERATION: SENTINEL STORM, stopping Erebus during the destruction of Forge Station. By 2030, he has achieved the rank of Force Captain, and helped lead and organize a large number of the MVSF's teams. However, his ambition and spark seems to have faded.

### **Delta 2**

Celia Harley was Delta Squad's second in command, sniper, and auxiliary pilot. Originally from an alternate Earth beyond the Nexus, Celia would choose to start a new life after the Convergence. After serving on both Praesidium Squad and Hunter Squad with distinction, Celia would help command Delta Squad while Ben was MIA. During her time on Delta Squad, she would meet, and later marry, fellow operative Jade Lalonde.

### **Delta 3**

Ryko the Nemean Lion was a survivor of the Celestial Obliteration during the Convergence. During these events, he met and fought alongside Celia, and the two became fast friends. From 2018 to 2020, Ryko served in Praesidium Squad, before being transferred to Hunter Squad, and later, Delta Squad. During OPERATION: SENTINEL STORM, Ryko would sacrifice himself to destroy one of the shards of Erebus.

### **Delta 4**

The Bahtsai Waero H'uru was Delta Squad's heavy ordnance specialist, and a Ben's recon partner. When he was young, Waero was branded an Elkanshi, and was banished from his home world. Alone, he sought a new life in the MVSF. While often letting his friends take the initiative, Waero was steadfast and reliable, seeking to do the best he could with what he had. After the attack on Kiedus, and the start of the Bahrsai Revolution, Waero left the MVSF to help create a better homeland for him and his people.

### **Delta 5**

Pete the Gryphon was a famous celestial who participated heavily in the Convergence. As one of the new powered members of the race to survive, Pete spent time causing magical mischief around the world, aimless about where he could go next. The return of Erebus gave him a chance to make up for past mistakes, and he would give his life protecting Delta Squad during the battle of Forge Station.

### **Delta 6**

SHAI-314 was Ryko's replacement on Delta Squad. An experimental robot designed to one day replace MVSF operatives, they have a long way to go until they can match their human counterparts in the field. Regardless of their inexperience, however, SHAI is friendly and tough, and is extremely curious about the world beyond their programming.

### **Delta 7**

Sarah Kaitlyn Holt originally planned to work for the MVSF as only an engineer and researcher, though her curiosity to see worlds beyond Earth led her to a role as a security operative. Her first deployment was on Positor Squad, and though she did not see any combat, her skills as a technician earned her a position on Delta Squad, as a replacement for Pete. Sarah and Ben were the first members of the MVSF to encounter the Drowned, during an operation on Osira.

### **Delta 8**

After being almost entirely wiped out on Kiedus, Kappa Squad's only survivor, Pagan Moore, replaced Waero on Delta Squad. Angry, violent, and determined to avenge his fallen comrades, Pagan was heavily involved with the fight against Xanos. After the Golden Legion's mysterious defeat on Lakaash, Pagan resigned from the MVSF.

Other members of the team include Asriel, the team's spark, and Jade Lalonde, the team's pilot.
