Lore & Background

The organization maintains strict secrecy, employing neuralyzer technology to wipe memories of witnesses after encounters with non-human entities. Their operations often involve retrieving dangerous artifacts that have been hidden within Earth's history for centuries. Leadership is typically vested in a senior veteran who coordinates field agents across various missions. Despite being part of a larger network, the London branch faces unique challenges involving ancient alien civilizations and local human governments.

Their mandate mirrors the core organization: monitor alien immigration, neutralize hostile species, and maintain the secret that Earth is populated by non-humans. Unlike the US branch, this bureau often deals with ancient artifacts hidden in European history rather than modern urban infiltration. Leadership falls to Agent H, a veteran field officer who oversees operations from London. The hierarchy remains strict, utilizing neuralyzer technology to wipe human memory of incursions.

While they share resources and intelligence with their American counterparts, the International Bureau maintains operational autonomy for regional security. This decentralization allows for faster response times in different time zones and cultural contexts. Their impact on galactic balance is significant; by securing Earth's perimeter across multiple continents, they prevent hostile factions from coordinating a global invasion. However, internal corruption or rogue agents within this branch can jeopardize the entire network.
