Porpoise Intelligence Gatherers are an elite group of porpoises within the United Cetacean Federation (UCF), renowned for their advanced data collection and communication skills. These gatherers play a pivotal role in the strategy and operations of cetacean forces during the ongoing Cetacean Uprising.

Formation and Purpose

The Porpoise Intelligence Gatherers were formed shortly after the Dawn of Sentience, when cetaceans began to recognize the value of organized intelligence networks. Their primary purpose is to collect, analyze, and disseminate information across cetacean societies, providing real-time data critical for decision-making in both peaceful and conflict situations.

Communication Network

Porpoise Intelligence Gatherers have developed an intricate sonar communication network that spans vast oceanic distances. This network allows for instantaneous information sharing, enabling cetacean communities to remain connected and responsive to threats. The efficiency of this system was notably demonstrated during the Battle of the Mariana Trench, where timely data sharing was crucial for the cetaceans' decisive victory.

Sonar Technology

The gatherers use a sophisticated form of echolocation, refined to transmit complex messages and data. This technology, which evolved from natural sonar abilities, allows them to relay information with remarkable clarity and speed. They can communicate across hundreds of kilometers, coordinating efforts between diverse cetacean groups and even other species allied under the UCF.

Strategic Importance

The intelligence provided by porpoise gatherers is not limited to military applications. They also monitor environmental changes, track resource availability, and facilitate diplomatic communications. Their contributions have been invaluable in efforts like Human-Cetacean Diplomacy, where accurate information is essential for effective negotiation.

Role in the Cetacean Uprising

As key operatives in the Cetacean Uprising, Porpoise Intelligence Gatherers have been instrumental in organizing defenses and strategizing attacks. Their ability to adapt quickly to new information has made them indispensable during critical battles, such as the defense against human incursions highlighted in Tensions Rise on the High Seas.

Collaboration with Other Factions

In conjunction with the Dugong Engineers and the Great Whale Conclave, the gatherers have helped establish a robust network of fortified underwater cities and strategic bases. These collaborations underscore the importance of intelligence in maintaining cetacean autonomy and securing oceanic territories.
