"Investigatrice déchue de premier plan."
"Elle est journaliste de formation et n'a pas oublié d'être brillante dans ce domaine. Son passé de Grand Reporter et de journaliste d’investigation en atteste."

Summary

Although Eleesha is officially one of the Daedalus's mechanics, she is secretly an investigative reporter who hunts the Mush. An effective Eleesha must juggle keeping the ship together while helping to identify its fungal invaders.

Eleesha is an investigative journalist for SNC (Sol News Channel). She managed to obtain the medical files of several financial and political leaders in the Federation, proving their Mush infection. After her report was taken off the air, Eleesha fled to Jupiter for fear of being eliminated. She revealed all this to the crew of the Daedalus and is currently on board posing as a mechanic.

Tips

• Don't hesitate to visit various rooms around the ship to note down the room logs. Your Tracker skill makes you very effective at keeping track of everyone's movements.
  • Equipping the Anti-Grav Scooter can help you save energy while traveling the ship (giving you 2 extra during - transfers).
• Depending on your chosen skills, you should be helping your team by relaying in the Laboratory or Nexus, and/or by repairing or reinforcing important items.
• Remember, you are a suspect like everyone else! Though you should be keeping track of others' movements, people might not appreciate it if you're constantly visiting a Dorm with the Shower, or visiting isolated characters like Raluca.
• Use THE List wisely. It can help make or break a stalled investigation, but you only get one chance to print it... Coordinate closely with Chun and other trusted investigators.

Skill Notes

• Tracker is Eleesha's most important skill. Between the extra room log info, THE List, and the expedition utility, it's too good not to take. Be mindful of when you print THE List: it contains the name of one of the two Alpha Mush aboard the ship, among several other names that decrease in number the longer you wait to print it.
• Determined is the closest thing that Eleesha has to a combat skill, and it can help when making repairs. However, it is noticeably weak compared to some of the other skills Eleesha has at her disposal.
• Observant is very situational. It effectively turns you into a walking Camera, making it very risky for Mush to take certain actions around you, and it can help locate hidden items. However, it has virtually no utility outside of the Mush hunt.
• IT Expert gives you the equivalent of 4/day, useful for a wide variety of tasks. It also makes it easier to use the Hacker Kit when dealing with an uncooperative commander.
• Technician is especially useful on long-running ships, when breakages become more and more frequent. It can also be helpful if PILGRED needs to be repaired in an emergency.
• Polymath is also fairly situational. On the surface, it appears weaker than some of Eleesha's other skills. However, the extra 2 private channels can make coordinating the Mush hunt much easier, and the skill points (which save you 2/day) complements IT Expert very effectively.

If Mush

• Tracker is so good that not taking it appears very suspicious. Thus, you may want to take it even though its effects are directly harmful to your team. This is not all bad; since THE List cannot be printed without your intervention, you have control over when it comes into play (unless Stephen decides to Apprentice it).
• Observant is a pretty bad choice, because it can reveal the Covert actions of your fellow Mush! But there are some niche situations where it might be useful - such as if you're looking for a hidden Hacker Kit...
• IT Expert allows you to appear active without spending too much of your precious , and it may be useful for sabotaging expeditions using the aforementioned Hacker Kit.
• Technician is a very good skill for Mush, because it allows you to dismantle important objects like the Mush Genome Disc. Warning: These actions will be quickly noticed by the human crew and will make you public enemy number one! Choose the right moment to act.
