Paradise Violated

Indoctrinator Salo…

Salo is an Empire Indoctrinator: Loyal, dedicated, intolerant, and utterly fanatical. It's his job to make sure humanity doesn't fall to alien influences and to shove humanity's influences down aliens' throats or failing that, to annihilate aliens that insist on holding on to their own cultures and humans that question the Empire.

Salo like most of his kind, sees heresy everywhere, he's even accused you of being too "soft" on the natives on several occasions. What he fails to understand (Or refuses to) is you're NOT an assault force, you're scouts. Sometimes in order to survive, you have to work with the population that may live on the planets you're exploring. In fact, it's usually easier that way, since you aren't fighting a battle every five minutes. (Let the marines worry about that when they invade) Indoctrinators though are known for their inflexibility, and Salo has been bending far too much for his taste. He doesn't even really like the idea of assimilating alien cultures; he'd rather just exterminate them. So far the general hostility of the Lizards has been appeasing his xenophobia. He gets a perverse kick out of chanting Empire doctrine as he's killing them. You've had to stop him a few times from going overboard. While killing native populations is fun for him, he always hopes to meet one of the sworn enemies of the Empire though, he particularly hates Elojin.

You and Salo have never really gotten along, but you're getting the impression that you and he are going to really have it out soon and the outcome probably won't be good. You don't understand why he didn't just ask to be assigned to an Empire Assault Legion instead, he'd still be serving the same purpose of "moral officer" and he'd be able to kill all the aliens he wanted on a regular basis.

Knowing your luck though, he specifically asked to be assigned to you personally just because the nature of the universe seems to like fucking with you.
