A summary of the data so far has been made available to the Fringe Newsfeed
Data Collected on Marauders 159-161
This document includes a Study Overview and an example autopsy report.
The names of some witnesses and researchers have been redacted or replaced with pseudonyms for their safety.
It is my understanding that “Dr Silicon” has a report on the scan of a living Marauder brain pattern, which I would like to add to this report if possible.
2. Sample Autopsy Report
This section is an example of one of a series of autopsies of Marauders slain on Eclipse in September of this year. The results in the example are typical. My thanks to the local physician and researcher who lent their time and skills to the project.

Describe the events and circumstances leading to the fatal illness/event:
Specify any concerns of abuse, neglect, drug/alcohol involvement, or suspicious circumstances. Use this space also for any additional comments
Decedant part of a Marauder raiding party that attacked civilians at Station 19.
Decedant was killed in self-defense by [REDACTED]
C. Autopsy and Investigation Information
Status: Autopsy Completed
Performed by: Dr Pacifia , Professor Silicon
Was Toxicology Performed on the Decedant?: [x] Yes [ ] N
Results: [ ] Positive [x] Negative [ ] Unknown [ ] Pending
Substance/Level (if known): N/A
Additional Death Scene Investigation Performed by:
[x] Not conducted [ ] Fire Investigator [ ] Psi Investigator [ ] Clergy [ ] Orpheon [ ] Other
Coroner’s Notes:
Body Temperature 76deg
Standard Medical Scans performed prior to full autopsy, subject confirmed dead.
Cybernetic implant removed during autopsy. Implanted for medical purposes, not functioning at the time of death (non functional before injuries incurred)
* Please follow-up on origin and nature of all devices
Skin marked with many scars, all located to suggest self-infliction. One scar circular, in Nidrig’s pattern. (consistent with other Marauders)
No disease or organ degradation
Stomach contents include Dahak tissues and undigested Dahak finger,severed above middle knuckle. Bite patterns match teeth of decedant.
Brain chemistry “Way off” (see attached readings) consistent with other Marauder brain scans. Pattern not associated with any known pathology, other than being similar in many ways (comparable, but not identical) to those of violent sociopaths and mass murders studied in Imperial space (Fringe medical facilities generally lack the specialised equipment to measure and document these patterns.)
Adrenal gland overstimulated.
Amigdila lacks the chemicals to connect with the rest of the brain.
(In Layman’s terms: Regions of the brain that interpret the link between emotional response and rational actions are chemically deficient and non-functional. This varies, but all Marauders to some degree share this trait.)
Brain patterns and energy signature of living subject of any race, in religious frenzy, are distinctive and have similarities. He speculates similar here.)
Notes: Professor Silicon hopes that a scan of living Marauder brain (see later report) to compare will reveal more.
Likely this person has not been a Marauder for long. Ritual scars are fewer and fresher than many, and battle injuries are relatively few (other than those that caused the death). Brain chemistry change is not as advanced.
Notable in this individual: Evidence of a very minor mutation. Decedant might not have been aware of this.
Additional Note: “JQ says [REDACTED] shattered one once - suggesting it was an animated corpse, but Dr Pacificia finds no evidence to support this claim.
