Consisting of only five drivers and a handful of support personnel, Detachment 41 is a small and undesirable posting for officers of the Ontario Peace Patrol. Commanded by Sgt. Major Sawyer, Detachment 41 patrols a backwoods section of the 401 corridor of no real significance.
Sgt. Major Sawyer, 40; a veteran of the Detroit-Windsor War, is believed to have once enjoyed a much more prestigious position within the OPP. What transpired to see him shuffled off to the boonies, his men don't know, but they respect him nonetheless, if for no other reason than he's their top pursuit man.
Sergeant Spirit, 38; Sawyer's second in command, is a tough and loyal officer, and is closest to Sawyer of all of them, in age, skill, and attitude. Because of this, she sometimes serves as a bridge between Detachment 41 and their commander, being perhaps a bit more understanding than Sawyer at times is.
Constable Jacob, 26; he fills the role of unit sharpshooter, having a record number of ranged kills. His kills are high enough, in fact, that he has been offered transfers to other, better units. Thus far he has chosen to remain with 41, although how long the young sniper will stay is a question that weighs heavily on Sawyer.
Constable Red, 30; Detachment 41's resident daredevil. A skilled driver, he could likely take his commander's place as top pursuit man, if only he took fewer unnecessary risks. Red has caused nearly as much damage to his own vehicle as those of the renegades he runs down.
Constable Echo, 18; still called 'Cadet' by the rest of her unit, is fresh out of the Ontario Peace Academy. A native of the GTA, Echo is no stranger to violence, but is still adjusting to life outside the city.
Detachment 41 is poorly funded and rarely receives support. The veterans of the unit, Sawyer and Spirit, barely bother maintaining the appearance of their vehicles anymore, only repainting the trademark gold stripe of office a couple times a year. Their Junos are older machines, equipped with turbochargers, while the rest of the unit runs plain V6s.
