HECATON SPECIAL OPERATIONS Not a single person in Taskforce Valkyrie doesn’t know about the conspiracy’s glorious history, particularly the historical records and accounts from the conspiracy’s precursor in the HECATON Special Operations Unit. Named for the many-armed monster both because of what it symbolizes and because they wanted to do homage to the Unit’s “mascot” Brigade, HECATON made the Taskforce what it is today, right down to the values that the conspiracy is supposed to uphold. Once the conspiracy within Taskforce Valkyrie’s conspiracy, operating in secret within their own organization with the express goal of reforming Taskforce Valkyrie before the end of 2012. HECATON is the actual “head” of the institutional beast that the Taskforce is in tonight's Vigil, comprised of the best that the conspiracy has to offer. Their members are 70% supernatural, and operate off the books. The remaining 30% are Deadwalkers (or secretly Sleepwalkers) who moved things within TFV and the American government for their companions. Joshua Larue's rise as a Malice King, however, marked HECATON's break away from Taskforce Valkyrie following the rising dark within the Vigil, and the corruption within their own ranks. HECATON’s agenda goes far, FAR beyond creating a safe and friendly Vigil for the Americas and any friend to the United States. They’re out to reform their own Taskforce, preparing it for the coming of the New Age – something that is only going to happen after they stop the Apocalypse. They’re out to purify the Vigil, to restore it to what it was meant to be the day that the Dragon decided to form the Methuselah. They’re out to bring an end to this war between the Kings, and the best way that they’ve determined how to act on that is to continue helping Hikaru Shinta and Riley Falner. They plan on doing this at all costs, even if it means fighting their own comrades.

THE WINGS :: Barbara Wintergreen-Brea, Director of Archangel

[geistnet]

BARBARA WINTERGREEN-BREA Alias: Babs DIRECTOR OF ARCHANGEL SLEEPWALKER [PSYCHIC] Known to many within ARCHANGEL as “the dame who started it all”, Barbara Wintergreen’s brilliance, grit, and hardline principles are responsible for steering ARCHANGEL throughout is dark history and propelling it towards the division that it is today within the Taskforce. Only a few people know this, but she’s actually the daughter of Rebecca Cowen-Wintergreen, a woman that Joshua Larue was once in love with and continues to regard with a great amount of fondness. No wonder Josh sends her daughter Eve gifts on her birthday and on Christmas… Babs stayed behind in Taskforce Valkyrie for as long as she could, all in the hopes of using her clout to convinced more of the conspiracy to see the World of Darkness as potential allies or fellow denizens of the Fifth World instead of as enemies. Her mother, however, ordered her to retreat to Taft a little before the Ides of March. PLOT POINTS AS OF 06 OCTOBER 2016 Babs has taken point on recovery and extraction operations for HECATON. They've still got a lot of people out there, and there's an ever-growing list of friends and family who need a pick up.
