A work in progress until I can shake the rest of the details out of Ryu. We're always for new people, too, so... <s>If you're interested, you should PM Ryu. (And it's a little distressing to see how involved I am in all of this now. Seeing as there isn't too much of it yet, even.)</s>
Explanation
A lot of people are confused by the huge plot that Ryu set up, which I kind of helped with. There are actually currently three different main plots going on, which all overlap on each other, and a number of factions in various stages of involvement. There were actually a whole lot more threads involved with these plots. However, it seems that most of them were dropped because the members who were in them left. So I didn't include those.
Update
I'm hijacking this plot. I haven't decided exactly what I'm going to be doing but as of June 25th, 2014, I am going to be doing my darnest to put this thing off the rails. Ryu is still going to be doing his original plot but now I am going to be way more aggressive with my side of things.

Currently, it is the faction best set against SPECTER, as it cannot be infiltrated by mental magic or technology.
