The Shroud

"Your mind betrays your tongue rebel. Here's your freedom."

- The Shroud to the Informant, when they see through his lies.

The Shroud were an elite Confederate black ops unit. Like many Ghosts, they were considered "creepy".

History
Marshal Bill Constantine of the Brontes IV Colonial Milita had lost track of a routine patrol, and was unable to count on the Confederates for help. He sent his own troops to try to find them, but they were ambushed by a mysterious militia.

Now Constantine finally received some assistance from the Confederacy; they loaned him five members of the Shroud. They infiltrated the rebel installation, with orders to investigate and rescue any captured militia members. During the mission, they learned of Atticus Carpenter and his rebel movement, the Fist of Redemption, from an informer.

They discovered that the Fist was keeping Zerg captives within the installation, along with some of the missing soldiers. The Shroud freed the soldiers and escorted them out of the installation.

The data disk they delivered to Constantine enabled him to temporarily acquire the services of Jack Frost.
