| - Sublime Task Force Whiskey Cobra is a mercenary company renown for the diversity of its methods, its moral ambiguity, and for the great distances it has traveled in pursuit of the next job. Numerous wild tales circulate the wastes, attributing the destruction of raiders gangs, the sacking of villages, and the plundering of Pre-War sites to the fearless soldiers of the STFWC. Many adventurers, itinerant heroes, and desperadoes have claimed membership in the past. However, Sublime Task Force Whiskey Cobra does not exist, and never did. The real STFWC isn't an army, rather it is a collection of jokes, references, one-liners, non sequiturs, and invented anecdotes shared between friends. Originating in Vieux Carré, it spread northward and westward by word of mouth. As it moved along and was picked up, the canon was expanded to include local flavor. Any group of people who pick up on it invariably create their own in-jokes. Familiarity with the lore let's someone participate in the camaraderie of a crude hive-mind that the participants find humorous, while breaking one of the unspoken rules can out someone as a square. "Every third man would lose a nut, Queen's pick. Those guys would still be better off than every fifth man..." ―Gillingham
