Security Alert Advisory
Subject: Michael Stackpole
Recap:
On 2 August 3030, Stackpole was the subject of an alert as the result of his escape from our Phoenix Reeducation Center. At the time, the subject claimed to have been born in the 20th century, and raised in Vermont, where he took a degree in history from the University of Vermont in 1979. After that he moved to Arizona and began a career as a game designer. While our researches did uncover records of such an individual, and we were able to confirm that he worked for companies such as FLying Buffalo, Inc., FASA Corporation, TSR, Inc., HeroGames, WestEnd Games, Electronic Arts and Interplay Productions, we cannot accept the conclusion that these two individuals are one and the same. That would make him 1093 years old, though he doesn't look a day over 31. (Our experts deny that a regimen of Szechuan food and indoor soccer would grant that sort of longevity.)
Recent Sighting:
Through the late thirties, we had sightings in the Lyran Commonwealth (mainly on Arc-Royal and Nusaken), but after a confirmed sighting at Archon Katrina Steiner's funeral, the subject vanished. We believe he has resurfaced. We obtained a voiceprint match between his voice and that of a request for recharge clearance on a JumpShip chartered by Wolf's Dragoons. The match came on 25 November, and the ship is believed to have been carrying Natasha Kerensky on a mission whose purpose we have not been able to discern.
Conclusion:
Given the subject's past propensity for writing, we suspect he is preparing another multivolume work concerning the history of the Successor States. The Primus found his previous revelations about ComStar vexatious, and has not rescinded the 3030 death order. Under no circumstances is he to be allowed to reach the Clans!
