Barcelona, Spain - Nordatlantikpakt Organisation HQ
1980, April
You are a member of an elite paramilitary organization: part-spook, part-analyst, part-commando. You find your own information, you figure out what it means, and you do what’s necessary to make sure the people back home never suffer for it. It’s not exactly fun & games, but when things get dirty, your country calls on you to help mop things up.
Just as well. As an elite veteran of at least 10 years from the North American or European military, proficient in at least two other languages, and well-versed in both combat and spy-craft, you represent some of the best that your nation has to offer. If the Kyzyl Pact tanks start rolling over the old Polish border, you’re the best shot at stopping the war with as few casualties as possible.
==========================================
Setting
Bottom Line: Following World War II (America vs Japan; Germany vs Europe), Europe is under German rule either directly or by satellite nations… but the banner of the Third Reich is now a symbol of equality and anti-communist sentiment. Mao dies before Stalin, and the Sino-Soviet split never happens. The two communist superpowers bind together in what is later called the Kyzyl Pact, after the capitol in Tanna Tuva, a former Russian protectorate that now serves as a middle ground between the USSR and the PRC. This forces the United States (& Canada) to ally with Germany and its satellites, forming the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
You’ll probably absorb the rest of the alternate history during the game, so further knowledge, while optional, is not entirely necessary. If you want a truly in-depth character and want to do the reading, however, here it is:

==========================================
Notes: I’m looking for some mature players that can commit to keeping the game going. I understand life happens, but I’d appreciate nobody joining on a whim. If you join, please be ready to see it through.
The Nature cards are only to denote your secondary role and/or specialty. Unless a Weakness is introduced to indicate otherwise, all characters are trained and well-versed in espionage, assassination, and sabotage.
Also, due to the nature of the game, any female character will have to be German (But keep in mind, that Germany & its satellites occupy almost all of Europe). The US & Canada still have reservations about arming women and sending them into combat, but the Germans are all about equality… except for Communists.
