A report on the situation at Dead God is filed, soon after the assault.
Earlier this cycle, one of the Reaver mercenaries from the port town Dead Gods Rock (Astral Plane) came to Sigil, requesting aid against what he suspected was an impending attack on the town. A number of planewalker mercenaries, as well as a contingent of Harmonium (led by Notary Reina) and Mercykillers (led by myself) answered the call, and promptly ventured to the port.
Not long after our arrival, the small fleet of vessels came into view. Most held back, but two began an approach, and then vanished from sight. Seconds later, they appeared at the harbor, seeming to have phased through the distance. The crews, which seemed to be armored humanoids, promptly and without word assailed us, but were repelled. Soon after, another vessel warped over the town, and dropped battle golems to join the fight. One attempted to capture a specific individual, but we managed to rescue him and damage the ship before it phased back out.
The individual was taken by Notary Reina to the Harmonium Barracks (to the last of my knowledge), while the two ships were impounded by our forces. We discovered that the ships were operating out of a combination of Furnace Helms, as well as some strange devices, the nature of which is still being determined. I have taken one of these devices to my personal vessel in Sigil for further study.
Of note regarding the enemy force; as mentioned, they appeared to be humanoids, though heavily "modified", with armor grafted onto and through their bodies, such that the components cannot be removed without specialized tools. Furthermore, the surviving forces went catatonic as the enemy fleet retreated, suggesting a mind link to a controller that requires a minimum proximity. Seconds after this, their helmets exploded, killing every single one where they stood.
Some of the bodies were taken back to the Mortuary, and studied by various planewalkers.
Agents with additional information on this enemy force are encouraged to bring such to my attention as soon as possible.
