Unique Gadget[edit]

Gyro Cam MK2
Encased in a tinted silicone ball, coated in micro-suction cups, the MK2 maintains a clear view thanks to the internal gyroscope that dictates the angle of the lens. The suction cups allow the camera to adhere to any surface, while the gyroscope mounted lens stabilises the camera angle and focus. The live video feed is available to all operators.

Lore[edit]

Background[edit]

An Olympic hopeful in the 200 meter breaststroke, Castellano split her time between the pool and the army base, where her father was a training officer. Her junior year, Castellano broke her arm in a car accident, putting an end to her Olympic ambitions. After high school, she enlisted in the Navy. Serving four years, before attending college on the Veterans Affairs bill, upon graduation she returned to the NAVY as a career intelligence officer.
