Role: Communications and Surveillance Officer
Background: Phillip Webb grew up in the shadow of Bletchley Park, the grandson of a wartime codebreaker. A gifted mathematician, he joined GCHQ straight out of university, specializing in signal analysis and cryptography. Webb’s interest in the fae began when he intercepted a series of unexplainable radio signals during a routine sweep—broadcasts filled with strange harmonics and unsettling whispers that defied standard encryption. Digging deeper, he found himself pulled into the world of the Faylinn Defence Group, where his skills proved invaluable in tracking fae incursions. He has since developed a personal theory that the fae communicate through mathematical patterns beyond human understanding, using the fabric of reality itself as their medium.
Skills: Master of analog surveillance, radio signal triangulation, and audio analysis. Prefers tape machines and vintage oscilloscopes, believing modern digital equipment is too easily influenced by fae interference. He often carries a battered, leather-bound notebook filled with half-deciphered fae transmissions.
Personality: Nervous, socially awkward, and intensely curious. Webb has an almost paranoid awareness of his surroundings, always scanning for the subtle distortions that signal a fae breach. Despite his quirks, he is fiercely loyal to his colleagues and driven by a deep need to understand the Fae, even at great personal risk.
Motive: To crack the fae ‘language’ and one day bridge the gap between the human and fae worlds without losing his sanity in the process.
