Who do you send to force introductions with unknown and unknowable alien intellect that doesn't wish to be met? You send a linguist with multiple personalities, a biologist interfaced with machinery, a pacifist warrior, a monster, and a synthesist, praying they can be trusted with the fate of a world. They may be more alien than the thing they've been sent to find.
