Captain Genevieve Salé is the Hijacker specialist of the Global Defense Forces. Her primary role is anti-vehicle disruption.

Background

Captain Genevieve Salé is an accomplished soldier and was selected by the science division for her ability to remain level-headed and adapt during the chaos of the battlefield. Captain Salé is outfitted with the science division’s more experimental and cutting-edge technology, trusted to put it to use in live firefights and bring it back in one piece.

Entrusted with the GDF's highest stable concentration of Tempest-derived explosives, Captain Salé's grenade launcher is lethal to most ground targets and can also cause out-of-control Tempest electrical reactions on enemy armour.

The GDF Science Division does not discuss the specifics of the technology used to override the piloting and weapons systems of enemy vehicles, but the results are undeniable. With the apparent press of a button, Captain Salé is able to remote-pilot enemy vehicles for a short time to occasionally dramatic effect.

Captain Salé bears a suit of adaptive camouflage of similar make to that of Drone Maulers (though lighter weight). It activates while she is immobile, allowing her to plan her next move.
