Canon history

Backstory

Speed Tail first enters the living ASCU record through the Fleetview roster. UMED identifies the person behind the name as Maxine "Max" Harper, but the circumstances that placed them in the city's altered conflict have not yet been cleared for the public archive.
The current file preserves confirmed identity, alignment, location, and source classifications without turning unverified notes into canon. Field reports, relationships, and the full sequence of the character's origin remain under editorial review.
This dossier is built on the same expandable structure as Eagle Wing's profile. New history, appearances, equipment, relationships, and measured UMED telemetry can be added without changing the page or breaking its place in the wider universe.

Origin

Her AGC origin is established in UMED classification; the circumstances of activation remain part of Fleetview's unreleased records.

Seven marks the highest currently measurable operational expression. Verified values come from Judd Metrology field measurements; provisional values are UMED estimates derived from documented abilities and encounters. Ratings describe capability, not moral alignment. Empty channels mean no defensible estimate has been published, never a zero rating.
