Operation Wandering Stench

Summary
Operation Wandering Stench was a propaganda campaign exercised by The National Society of Hygiene's 1st Battalion during the Purge of Speke.

The operation played off the belief of many of the Fletchers' ogres in the "Wandering Stench": rumoured to be the accursed tongue of deceased ogrekind. A widespread belief within ogre culture is that if you hear the Wandering Stench, you shall be forever plagued with the haunting wails of your deceased ogre relatives.

NSOH engineers spent weeks recording eerie sounds and altered voices – masquerading them as the Ogre Spirits – for use in the operation, with the intended purpose of instilling a sense of turmoil within the enemy.

During the final week of The Purge, the 1st Battalion's Loudspeaker Team - Charlie Oscar Mike - deployed the synthetic recording of the Wandering Stench. It proved to be the turning point for the war; once the opposing ogre army heard the audio being played, the majority either retreated, surrendered or entered a berserk, trance-like rage which only made them easier to finish off. The surrendered ogres were apprehended on the scene and taken to The Barracks.

Stats and Abilities
Tier: 8A in range and overall effectiveness.

Powers and Abilities: Weaknesses:
 * Supernatural Aura - Instilled a great sense of fear within the ogres, previously unknown to even be possible.
 * Highly Manipulative - Was able to deceive the entirety of the ogre army that was present in Speke at that time.
 * Effectiveness - Some question the effectiveness this had during the operation. Loudspeaker engineers and tacticians believe that using non-artificial ogre noises would've been more effective. Some even worry about how effective this tactic will even be in the future, if it isn't improved upon. To quote Dr. Tracy: "You can only pull the same trick so many times". However, others on the board retort that the results speak for themselves.
 * Ethics - Many critics on the NSoH board of directors question how ethical such a method really was, with certain individuals even going as far to say that it was a cowardly act, perhaps worthy of condemnation, despite such positive results.
