Interrogation

Interrogation is a passive trait ability belonging to the Recon Runner Shell in Marathon. It has two related functions tied to information gathering and enemy intelligence. First, it alerts the Recon player whenever an enemy has pinged or marked them, providing counter-surveillance awareness that other Runners lack. Second, when the Recon performs a finisher move on a downed enemy, Interrogation reveals the locations of that enemy's entire crew on the map, giving the squad comprehensive positional data on the opposing team.

The finisher-triggered crew reveal is one of the strongest team-level information plays available in Marathon, since it converts a single kill into a full situational update on where remaining threats are located. This incentivizes Recon players to actively pursue finishers rather than simply downing enemies and moving on. The ping-alert component adds a layer of defensive utility, warning the Recon when they are being actively surveilled and allowing them to reposition before enemies move on that information. Together, the two effects of Interrogation reinforce Recon's identity as the Runner that always has more information than anyone else on the map.
