Camelot

History and Background Information

Pictures of Camelot HQ

Camelot’s the traditionally good side of the reincarnate war. Although the war’s been going on throughout history, Camelot has only existed as the good side of the war since 1511. Camelot was created by their version of King Arthur, who drew upon his knowledge to create an organisation that’s been so successful it’s continued in one form or another to this day.

Camelot’s leadership has traditionally been passed down from parent to child, although there has been the rare occasion that it was passed to someone close to the leader. Michael Morgan is the current leader of Camelot, having been given control when his father decided to step down just after the peace treaty was broken by Adam Saxondale.

Today Camelot Enterprises acts as the front organisation; it funds Camelot’s operations and adds a certain amount of misdirection to the average person. Their ability to organise the organisation and fund their activities without much hassle is just a couple of their strengths, but it’s their weaknesses that set them apart. Unlike CORE, they are much less likely to resort to measures such as assassination, torture or holding loved ones hostage. However, when anyone is pushed far enough they’ll do anything to win.

Headquarters

Camelot Enterprises has it's headquarters in the Canary Warf area of London, and it's been a commonly held belief that Camelot operates outside of this office. In reality the headquarters for the organisation is just outside of Glastonbury, England.

The Headquarters are in a castle that was built in the 1500's by the current King Arthur. It was hidden from the public by magic, and any outsiders that look towards it will just see empty farmland and farm buildings. In order to see the castle for what it really is, you must be invited by the current leader, only he or she decides who is trusted enough to enter the HQ. From the outside members of Camelot see a huge 16th century castle, but on the inside it's been updated with all the modern technology you'd need to run a command centre.

The castle is made up of four wings, six above ground levels and four below ground levels, and there's a vast network of hidden passages all throughout the castle. Inside the above ground levels there are training rooms, operational offices, accommodation suites, board rooms, down time rooms, a kitchen, dining rooms, and a fully kitted out medical centre. In the lower levels there are cells, a gun range, the main weapons storage, and other rooms that have been declared top secret.

If you don't have an invitation from Michael Morgan to come to the Camelot Headquarters then you get to it from the Camelot Enterprises HQ in Canary Warf, where there is a rudimentary MTN hub that only goes to Camelot HQ.

Aside from the Headquarters, Camelot has small cells all over the world ready to fight for the cause.

Ventures

The following ventures are continuously ongoing within Camelot. They are not the only things they’re doing, but a lot of the other ventures will be short term reactions to information they get or CORE’s actions. These new ventures will be announced both in and out of character, but unless they turn into long term projects they will not be listed here.

Each venture has a project leader that answers to Michael Morgan. If you’re interested in playing one of these characters please contact the mods, until then they will be NPCed.

Surveillance

Surveillance is probably one of the most important projects that Camelot constantly undertakes. Members of CORE aren’t always easy to follow or track down, but it’s often the only way they can predict their movements in order to protect as many innocent people as possible. As well as win the war against them.

Project Leader: Jeremy Gates

Reconnaissance / Espionage

Reconnaissance is probably the most dangerous jobs that someone can do for Camelot. There are very few people who have the skills, daring and abilities to get close to CORE and go undercover within the organisation. Those that decide that it’s worth the risk to find real information for Camelot face discovery, torture and even death.

Traditionally the role of reconnaissance has been filled by men and women that are the reincarnation of someone who would be typically seen as evil, but who is actually a good person in this reincarnation. This is due to the fact that CORE is more likely to trust someone that's been traditionally evil as well as them having a better ability to fake evilness.

Project Leader: Farley Trask

Training

Camelot’s aware that not everyone that joins their side is going to have combat skills necessary to survive fighting a war. As a result, they take training very seriously, and it’s the job of Camelot trainers to help new and old recruits reach a level where they’re comfortable with them going into combat.

Combat training isn’t just limited to fighting and often includes various amounts of the following depending on the role they wish to take:
Computer skills.
Evasive driving.
Basic law.
Field medicine.
How to lie well | Farley Trask
How to blend in with your surroundings | Farley Trask
Self-defence: Beginner | Matilda Martin
Self-defence: Intermediate | Dita Reese
Self-defence: Expert | Jacqueline Legrand
Weapons training: Beginner | Farley Trask
Weapons training: Intermediate | Michael Morgan
Weapons training: Expert | Jacqueline Legrand
How to bug a person, residence, office or transportation without being caught | Jacqueline Legrand
Research skills | Matilda Martin
Analysis skills | Matilda Martin
Explosives | Dita Reese
Magic; how to use it, and how to identify it and what you should do in those circumstances | Matilda Martin

Please contact the mods if you want to know exactly what training they’d be getting for their role within Camelot.

If you wish your character to be a trainer, they need to be trusted within the organisation and have knowledge in the areas that they'd be training. Please contact the mods for more details.

Project Leader: Matilda Martin

Combat

It doesn’t matter what side you’re on, or if you’re involved, the fact remains that reincarnates are at war with each other and anyone who’s a reincarnate may find themselves facing violence without notice. It’s the job of the combat troops to get to locations to engage CORE members and also to protect innocents that find themselves facing harm.

Project Leader: NPC

Propaganda

Like any side in a war, Camelot uses propaganda to its advantage. It tries to sway the reincarnate public to their side, make them think the same way as them. That CORE is an organisation that needs to be stopped before they destroy everything.

They use a mixture of posters put up in public places, Agency run radio and TV shows, print, public activism and the journals to attempt to sway the reincarnate public to their side. Either to join them, or just to be on their side if they ever need to choose.

Project Leader: NPC

Recruitment

Recruitment is an ongoing process that only really stops during peace time. The easiest way to be recruited is just to ask over the journals, but remember to filter it to the good guys. However, those that get the attention of those within Camelot are also often invited to join them.

Project Leader: Nate Roth

Please remember to contact the mods before beginning the recruitment process.
