"The world is collapsing, Zeta is our last hope."

Governments collapse overnight. Elections twist into puppet shows. Terror strikes with no fingerprints—just whispers of an organization that shouldn’t exist. The New World Foundation (NWF) moves like smoke through the cracks of global power, their operatives ghosts in the machine. They don’t want money. They don’t want glory. They want to unmake the world—and they’re winning.

Enter Task Force Zeta, a rogue strike force assembled in desperation. Five criminals, outcasts, and broken prodigies, each with a ledger of sins and a reason to burn the NWF down. Led by a dead woman, armed with a hacker who sold them the keys to hell, and hunted by the very nations that created them, they are the last light flickering against the coming dark.

-(INTRODUCTION)-

• NWF (New World Foundation)
  The New World Foundation, a newly unearthed global crime syndicate ring that is currently infamous for their crimes everywhere around world, everything from terrorism, political assassinations, cyber attacks, they do it all. Doesn't announce itself with declarations or demands, it simply erodes. Born from the chaos of collapsing systems and rewired truths, this faceless syndicate has spent years weaving itself into the fabric of global power like a silent virus. No central leader, no manifesto, just a pattern of perfectly orchestrated disasters disguised as coincidence. Elections swing on hacked ballots no one thinks to verify. CEOs drop dead of "natural causes" hours before exposing corruption. Entire governments buckle under riots sparked by just the right whisper at just the right time. The NWF doesn't take credit, it lets the world blame itself while it pulls the strings.

• Task Force Zeta
  Task Force Zeta was born in the wreckage of failed intelligence coups and scorched-earth betrayals, a last-ditch gambit by nations too desperate to care about morality. Its operatives are the discarded, the disgraced, and the downright dangerous: a resurrected MI6 spymaster who faked her own death, a rogue hacker who accidentally armed the enemy, a Wagner Group butcher with a body count and a conscience, a SWAT prodigy who treats counterterrorism like a game, and a forensic savant who sees corpses as puzzles instead of people. They have no government backing. No oversight. Just a frozen base in the Arctic, a mountain of stolen black-ops gear, and one directive: burn the NWF to the ground before the world notices the fire.

• Vesper 'Mouse' Carlisle - Appointed Head of Task Force Zeta

• Origin = Reading, United Kingdom

  Former Occupation= MI6 Board Director of Intelligence
  
  Vesper "Mouse" Carlisle is the ghost that haunts the NWF’s every move. Officially, she died in an MI6 convoy bombing, another casualty of the shadow war against the global syndicate. Unofficially, she staged her own death, vanishing into the underworld to hunt the NWF from the darkness they think they own. Now, as the ruthless, razor-sharp head of Task Force Zeta, she commands an elite task force with one unshakable goal: burn the syndicate to the ground. Her methods are cold, her strategies flawless, and her presence a well-calculated myth. She expects precision, loyalty, and self-reliance from her team.

• Anneliese 'Ironheart' Eisenherz - Task Force Zeta's Lead Field Operative
  

  Origin = Frankfurt, Germany (Birthplace) , Washington D.C. , USA (Before Zeta)

  Former Occupation=

  - D.C. Metropolitan Police SWAT (youngest female operative in unit history)

  - FBI Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) Liaison

  
  Anneliese "Ironheart" Eisenherz is the unexpected spark in Task Force Zeta shadow war, a woman who disarms crises as easily as she disarms her teammates with crooked grins and smuggled sweets. At just 24, the German-born SWAT prodigy has already made history as the youngest female sniper in D.C. Metro’s elite unit, though you’d never guess it from her easygoing demeanor or the pink stripes on her rifle mags. But beneath the jokes and jarring optimism lies a razor-sharp tactician who can read a room like her father’s old Stasi files, and breach it twice as fast. The NWF expects hardened killers; they don’t know how to counter an operative who hums 80s pop during firefights and keeps glitter bandages in her tactical vest. Zeta didn’t recruit her despite her warmth, they chose her because of it. In a war fought in darkness, Ironheart’s the reminder that light hits harder when it’s unexpected.

• Irina 'Mercy' Solovyova - Task Force Zeta's Senior Field Operative
  
  Origin= Volgograd(Stalingrad), Russia

  Former Occupation=

  - Wagner Group Chief Field Commmander (Prigozhin’s inner circle, 2019–2023)

  - The leader's personal "problem solver" (2019-2023)

  - Convicted war criminal (falsely) — Pardoned by Zeta’s black-ops influence
  
  Irina "Mercy" Solovyova is a ghost with bloodstained hands and a warped moral code, a former Wagner Group executioner who earned her ironic callsign not for compassion, but for the cold precision of her kills. At 25, she’s already lived a lifetime in shadows: The leader’s favored blade, a convicted war criminal, and now Zeta’s most volatile asset. Disavowed by the very mercenary empire she helped build, Mercy operates under a single, twisted principle, "I choose who deserves the bullet, not the mission." She’ll gun down a room of NWF operatives without blinking, yet halt an entire operation to spare a civilian child. Vesper trusts her skills but not her motives; Ironheart tries to crack her icy shell, only to find the woman underneath is sharper than the facade. The NWF fears her because she knows their playbook, and because Mercy doesn’t just kill. She corrects.

• Madeleine 'Aperture' Teja - Task Force Zeta's Lead Cyberwarfare and Surveillance Specialist.
  
  Origin = Jakarta, Indonesia

  Former Occupation=

  - Unemployed

  - Former dark-web data broker ( Under the Alias 'Io' )

  - Former Cyberterrorist (though she wont admit it, duh.)

  Madeleine "Aperture" Teja, Zeta’s ghost in the wires and the most dangerous person you’ll never see coming. At just 20 years old, this Indonesian prodigy went from selling GPS coordinates on the dark web as Io to unwittingly destabilizing governments with a single keystroke. Her genius is self-taught, her morals fluid, and her biggest regret etched in 200 million forged ballots in her own home country that sparked a revolution. Now, with the NWF hunting their former data broker and Zeta eager to weaponize her brilliance, Aperture navigates a world she’s spent years exploiting, except this time, she’s fixing the cracks she created. Don’t let the anime merch and energy drinks fool you: she’s already inside your firewall, and she laughs when you lock the door.

• Shěn 'Lantern' Shīyuè / Rosamund 'Lantern' Shen - Task Force Zeta's Lead Forensic Expert

  Origin = Shenzhen, China

  Former Occupation=

  -"Voluntary Intern" (aka breaking into police stations to solve crimes)

  - Forensic Consultant for Guangdong PD (self-proclaimed volunteer)

  - Guangdong University's youngest graduate in Forensic Pathology (age 20)
  
  Rosamund "Lantern" Shen is a forensic savant who illuminates the darkest corners of crime scenes, whether authorities want her to or not. Born under the watchful eye of guardians who shielded her from foreign academia’s "corrupting influence," she honed her skills by breaking into police stations, solving cases as a rogue investigator, and leaving meticulous notes where detectives couldn’t ignore them. But when her brilliance accidentally condemned an innocent woman to prison, her confidence shattered, leaving behind a genius plagued by self-doubt. Zeta didn’t recruit her for her intellect alone, they seized her because her guardians begged them to. Fearing the NWF would exploit her gift for fabricating truths, they traded her freedom for her safety. Now, Lantern walks a razor’s edge: her mind a weapon, her guilt a shadow, and her loyalty tethered to the only people left who still call her right. She doesn’t just uncover evidence, she burns away lies, even when the truth scalds her most.
