Warden Une

Draped in a heavy scrap-coat, wearing a beastly mask, and wielding a hand-cranked wheel-fiddle, they could be more readily assumed to be a pageantry player than a village's defender. Up close, however, an onlooker might glimpse the hilt of their longsword, the butt of their pistol, or the burnished black aegis of unmarked fullerite that they carry. Pale cyan lights hover in the dark eye-sockets of their beaked mask, suggesting the very lurking threat that their costume was meant to defang.

Perfect

Warden Une is a member of the Yd Freehold, a warrior, an ex-member of the Putus Templar, and the highest-tier static cybernetics vendor in the game. Their inventory does not restock.[1]

Une's attire of the murmur mask, scrap cape, and hurdy-gurdy marks them as a Murmur[2].

Properties

Warden Une will always be loved by the Fellowship of Wardens, admired by the denizens of the Yd Freehold for "defending the Freehold", and hated by the Putus Templar for "kinslaying and treason".

Trivia

Caution: This article or section contains unverified speculation and should not be considered canonical.

Une possesses two items usually only carried by the Putus Templar in-game, an ontological anchor and the burnished fullerite shield, a unique variant of the fullerite aegis which has had its Templar symbology removed. This, combined with fact that the Templars are guaranteed to hate them for "kinslaying and treason", and their hostile reaction towards anyone who presses them on the origin of their shield, indicates that Warden Une was once a Templar themself.

Their unique headgear, cloak, and instrument, the murmur mask, the scrap cape, and the hurdy-gurdy respectively, are described in The Murmurs' Prayer as being "forced" onto "the least favored of an outpost's squires," and are meant to depict the "imagined mutant threat."

The details surrounding their departure from the Templars, and their reason for doing so, are unknown. It is almost certain that their killing of another Templar is a related factor, given the Templar's hate reason and the number of cybernetics they possess, but whether it was the inciting incident or happened after they chose to leave is unknown.

  2. From The Murmurs' Prayer: "The ritual describes a kind of uniform: trash cape, bone helm, and musical instrument. Though persistent across the scant records of the practice, I found few details and most carvings of the Murmurs were crude and varied a great deal."
