 During this period of uncertainty, he met [[ezrah_scherkenstein|Ezrah Scherkenstein]], who was investigating a clinic data manipulation case in Hope. Kweku helped her uncover falsified patient logs, using his insight into human behavior rather than technology. Ezrah quickly recognized his psychological intuition and offered him freelance work with the [[office_for_special_operations|Office for Special Operations (OfSO)]].
-Since then, Kweku has served as the agency’s field medic, counselor, and moral compass — a man who listens where others interrogate, who calms where others coerce, and who quietly leads by presence rather than command. Among the freelancers, he is known as the one you can rely on when everything falls apart.
+Since then, Kweku has served the [[office_for_special_operations|Office for Special Operations (OfSO)]] as an interrogator and investigator, valued for his ability to read people rather than pressure them. His interviews feel more like conversations than cross-examinations, yet he often extracts more truth than any threat could.
+Alongside his investigative work, Kweku discreetly assists in off-record medical operations — treating wounded witnesses, informants, or agents whose injuries cannot appear in official logs. Within the freelancer circle, he is regarded as the moral center of the team: calm, reliable, and quietly decisive when others lose direction.

     - **Serenica Neuro-Stabilizer:** Removes “Frightened” condition; grants advantage on Wisdom saves vs. fear for 8 h, but inflicts –2 Initiative while active. (Avg. Price 40 K; black-market fakes may cause hallucinations, DC 12 WIS save → Confusion 1 h.)

 ===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters =====
-Kweku shines in negotiations, interrogations, and crisis scenes. Use him to stabilize injured NPCs, extract emotional truths, or mediate between clashing factions. His leadership aura helps parties resist panic or moral collapse; his flaw—reliance on Serenica—adds tension in long operations or moral dilemmas involving substance control.
