6th Hand

The United Planetary Defense's secret unit "The 6th Hand."

Other than the fact that they take their name from an old Tarian legend about a shadow that ate children, nothing else is known about them besides they exist.

Instead of the standard UPD colors of olive-drab and white eye lenses, members of the 6th Hand don white uniforms with red eye lenses. The top portion of the helmet is able to slide down in front of the mask for additional ballistic protection.
