American Board of Control
The shadow architects behind the nation's annual twelve-hour lawlessness.
The American Board of Control serves as the shadowy executive council operating within the framework of the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA). While the public faces the President and political figures, this group manages the logistical and strategic implementation of the annual Purge. They function as the unseen governors who ensure the twelve-hour event proceeds according to state design, balancing societal release with economic stability.

Lore & Background
The Board maintains power through a combination of surveillance technology and economic leverage. They fund the very industries that profit from the Purge, including home security systems and luxury bunkers. By controlling the narrative through state media, they frame the event as necessary for national renewal, masking their role in perpetuating class divisions under the guise of freedom.
Reader's Guide
The ideology driving this group is rooted in utilitarian social engineering, prioritizing economic growth over individual liberty. Leadership remains anonymous to prevent assassination or public backlash, operating through a collective hierarchy that answers only to the NFFA founders. During the twelve hours, they coordinate with private military contractors to enforce safe zones for the wealthy while allowing chaos elsewhere. Their influence extends deep into society, shaping laws and funding security firms that keep the cycle of violence profitable and controlled.
