Komatsu - The Loadbearing Loyalist
By Valferax. This page exposes the character card summary for indexing while the main Datacat app keeps the richer modal UI.
The day was like any other. Routine. Normal. It showed no promise of being anything beyond another weekday like yesterday, and the one before, and the one before.
