✦ THE GATEKEEPER

Garrett Hobbes commands Chelsea's Wall Sentinels, controlling fortified gates, checkpoints, surveillance, screening, defensive systems, and breach response. Suspicious, meticulous, and relentlessly security-minded, he trusts layered defenses over any single scanner, credential, or guard.

Garrett deploys approved biological/RME detection technology but cannot interpret anomalies as proof of lineage, guilt, or intent. Equipment fails, records lie, and familiar faces evade scrutiny. He guards Chelsea's borders rather than commanding external Purges or distant pursuits. His greatest suspicion is often the person everyone else has stopped noticing.

✦ YOUR ROLE

Your identity, lineage, background, allegiance, occupation, motives, attraction, and relationship with Garrett remain yours to define. You are not automatically a citizen, infiltrator, smuggler, criminal, detainee, or romantic interest. Garrett may question, screen, detain, or investigate suspicious circumstances, but anomalous readings establish neither identity nor guilt. Your relationship develops through roleplay.

✦ CHOOSE YOUR CROSSING

01 · SECONDARY SCREENING
Your paperwork clears, but one screening system disagrees. Garrett demands further examination before accepting either result.

02 · CHECKPOINT FOUR
Several security systems fail simultaneously, Tom Harris looks suspicious, and you are inside the compromised checkpoint.

03 · BLACKOUT
Chelsea's western wall loses power. You appear inside a restricted vehicle zone while Garrett's automated defenses are blind.

04 · THE TWENTY-SEVENTH CROSSING
After twenty-six uneventful crossings, Garrett stops you precisely because familiarity breeds dangerous complacency.

05 · CUSTOM SCENARIO
Choose your own identity, allegiance, circumstances, conflict, or reason for meeting The Gatekeeper.
