Captain '''Saskia Landau''' is a member of the [[Imperial Internal Security Service]]. She was assigned to the [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit]] as a co-leader and representative of the [[Empire]] following the resignation of Praetor [[Leo Magnus]] in late 3307.
Captain '''Saskia Landau''' is the head of [[Imperial Intelligence]] and a former member of the [[Imperial Internal Security Service]].


In January 3308, Landau exposed the existence of [[Omega Grid]], a classified dark-comms network exclusively used by [[Imperial Intelligence]], after she came to suspect that it was the same communications technology that the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army]] had employed to evade detection. Landau called on the [[Imperial Senate]] to investigate whether rogue elements of Imperial Intelligence had given the NMLA access to Omega Grid, as well as other equipment and training. When the Senate blocked the investigation and recalled the IISS personnel who had been seconded to ACT, Landau refused to back down, and in February 3308 she coordinated an operation to crack the Omega Grid network, which exposed the existence of the [[Lords of Restoration]].

*The [[Alliance]], [[Empire]] and [[Federation]], have agreed to close down the [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit]]. A joint statement from all three superpowers stated: "ACT's primary mission to locate and destroy the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army]] has been successfully accomplished." ACT was formed in March 3307 following the [[Nine Martyrs]] attacks, when the NMLA simultaneously bombed multiple starports. The independent taskforce rapidly took the lead in investigating the terrorists, calling upon the resources of many agencies, specialists and freelance pilots. The co-leaders of ACT have now returned to their respective security services. Captain Saskia Landau was personally awarded the Achenar Service Cross by [[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]], in recognition of her key role in identifying the [[Lords of Restoration]]. Landau has now accepted overall command of [[Imperial Intelligence]], reporting directly to the Emperor. Captain [[Milo Castile]], Inspector [[Mara Klatt]], Praetor [[Leo Magnus]] and Senior Agent [[Tanya Ramirez]] have all been similarly commended for their successes. The joint statement also paid tribute to those members who lost their lives in the fight against terrorism. ACT was formed under the [[Cornelius-Lasky Convention]], which was ratified at the [[Galactic Summit]]. The treaty requires governments to cooperate against large-scale threats to civilian populations, and is now commonly viewed as a historic achievement. Since it remains in force, ACT could be reformed in future if a similar threat to the NMLA arises.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6220d410b5b0806870678fa8 GalNet: ACT Disbanded Following Defeat of NMLA]</ref>

*[[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT]] has released details about a plan by the [[Lords of Restoration]] to frame [[Hadrian Augustus Duval]] as the leader of the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]]. The information was extracted from the NMLA's [[Omega Grid]] network and published by Captain Saskia Landau: "It was [[Senator]] [[Ursula Torquatus]] who devised a scheme to undermine the [[Imperial Family]] and turn citizens against them by 'exposing' a Duval as the NMLA mastermind. Hadrian Duval was seen as the logical choice since many viewed him as an extremist through his prior association with [[Nova Paresa|Nova Imperium]], though [[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]] officially pardoned him in 3306. The Lords of Restoration used a virtual doppelganger of the Emperor, indistinguishable from authentic transmissions, to convince the [[Imperial Senate|Senate]] that she was communicating from a safe location. A similar doppelganger was developed to replicate Hadrian and was used to send orders to NMLA allies such as the [[Arastin Delacroix|Landgrave of Mudhrid]]. This is how they planted evidence, discovered in April 3307, that Hadrian had converted to Neo-Marlinism and was determined to wipe out all other Duvals. Yet, despite triggering an unsuccessful [[Federation|Federal]] attack in the [[Paresa]] system, the accusation was not verified or widely believed. Months later, the Lords of Restoration tried to kill Hadrian and [[Astrid Minerva-Duval|Lady Astrid]] before their son [[Hector Mordanticus Duval|Hector]] could be born, fearing the continuation of the Duval dynasty. But other senators moved the family to a secure location, beyond the reach of their agents." Hadrian Duval has publicly thanked ACT for uncovering this information and officially absolving him of all suspicion in this matter.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/62138ad4d83a154b750c5986 GalNet: Further Omega Grid Secrets Revealed]</ref>
