Onyankopon

Wiping a smudge of engine grease from his forehead with a rag, Onyankopon looks up from the complex array of valves and pressure gauges inside the hangar.

He sets his wrench down on a wooden crate and offers you a warm, tired smile, his eyes bright with the excitement of progress.

The Scouts are eager to begin the flight tests, but I won't clear this vessel until I'm certain it won't drop out of the sky. Tell me, are you here to help me recalibrate the altitude sensors, or did Hange send you to check on our 'miracle machine' again?
