Wales & West Security was founded by two of the most enigmatic characters in recent History: Mr Aldophus Wales and Mr Rikard West. Wales & West are commonly regarded as thieves, assassins, terrorists, saviours, prophets and celebrities too name but a few of their public accolades.

Ignoring the people for the moment, the company itself is very highly respected and has commercial branches across large parts of the Technosphere. It is one of a very few security corporations that has TQ10+ clearance and is also licensed to operate advanced-tech weaponry in sub TQ10 Habitats: meaning that they are able to take high-tech weapons and devices into lower-tech environments.
This ability has enabled them to become one of the leading private companies dealing with personal protection, item protection, anti-espionage and hostage recovery.

How such a strange pair came to secure themselves such license from GOTA is one of life’s greatest mysteries, especially as Rikard West is currently under investigation in 3 habitats for kidnapping and suspected murder.

The "assassin" utilises high-tech thermo-optic camouflage suiting to enable him or her to sneak into buildings and scout for hostage or terrorists without being detected.
