[center][sub][b]who are the black watchmen?[/b] the black watchmen are an elite paramilitary group charged with protecting the public from dangerous phenomena beyond human understanding: ritualistic murder, occult secret societies, and paranormal activity, to name but a few. as a global organization, the black watchmen offer a wide range of skills and services for covert missions anywhere in the world, on behalf of any group, corporation or government that can afford them. Often called in as a last resort, the black watchmen pride themselves on their discretion, strength and efficiency. 

your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to use the first day of the rest of your life focusing with like-minded agents in solving the disappearance of the watchmen's most elite agent. find her, agents, before it is too late.[/sub][/center]

[indent][sub]while alice & smith completely immerse their players in a permanent alternate reality fueled by calls and text messages and events in real time, my hope as a GM is that i will be able to do something similar with the players of this game. in this roleplay based on the game, 5-7 players and the gm (total of 8 at max) will interact in a completely immersive, paragraph-style roleplay with real-time puzzles and connections to real world history and pop culture. 

the following themes will be implied: active PMs from a "source", information available to certain characters at certain times, interactions with multiple NPCs made by the GM, real-time events with GMT-based times. please note that i will never ask for a cell phone number, address, or anything of the sort like alice & smith does.

[indent][sub]agent AI2057. the girl with the golden gun. one of five black-level, soldier-rank classified agents. the best of her kind. some believe her existence is a myth; an urban legend to intimidate rookies. to the other four members of her team and the directors, however, she is completely real and damn good at what she does. with a number of captures, kills, assassinations, hackings, and real-time events under her belt, agent AI2057 is a force to be reckoned with.

and she has fallen off the face of the earth.

the directors of the black watchmen cannot find her. her records have vanished, as if she was never born. it is your job, agents, to work amongst yourselves and locate agent AI2057 before she becomes the first of many black watchmen to disappear into the grasps of a darker, stronger force. if you cannot complete this mission, you may be one of many who fall into similar fates.[/sub][/indent]

[indent][sub][b]the director[/b] - some say she is the personal mentor to agent AI2057. some say she is the cause for her disappearance. either way, the director is a terrifying woman and a force to be reckoned with. some say her sociopathic nature is her downfall at times; others say it is the cause for the black watchmen's success.

[b]ayden christian[/b] - a young, intelligent man with too much time on his hands, ayden is a green-level, soldier-rank member of the black watchmen and your greatest asset. with hands both in the ahnayro project and the cyberwarfare unit of NITE team 4, ayden can give you information on any topic at any time; his connection to agent AI2057, however, is as shrouded in mystery as he is.

[b]AGENT AI2057[/b] - the target of your charge. the girl with the golden gun. the greatest asset to the black watchmen as an entity. and the girl you're supposed to find. follow the clues she's left for you and uncover the secrets she was trying to uncover before her disappearance. her life is in your hands.[/sub][/indent]
