A Short Introduction to the Ketsui Initiative
The Ketsui Initiative is a multiversal humanitarian organization with the mission of providing support to individuals or groups "fated" to suffer without recourse or hope, "fated" to fail in attempts of protection or saving their world or only do so at pyrrhic cost.
After an initial period of surveillance to identify the relevant individuals or groups, contact is made and assistance offered. Allowing for cynicism and skepticism, the offer of assistance remains open even if initially snubbed. Types of assistance include logistical, combat, emotional, investigational, and more.
The Initiative does not participate in colonization, nor does it subvert local governments outside of extreme scenarios. While joining the organization to "pay things forward" is lightly encouraged, it is by no means required. For some, their interaction with the Ketsui Initiative begins and ends with whatever journey or crisis led to contact in the first place. For others that desire to keep in contact, join the organization but commute from their home universe, or even just visit, arrangements can be made including embassies and/or methods of travel.
Those who wish to leave their former lives behind (due to persecution, necessity, or just plain wanderlust) can freely move into various connected settlements across the multiverse, often located on otherwise uninhabited worlds or within pocket universes. Whether or not an individual chooses to join the Initiative proper or live unaffiliated lives as citizens of the Ketsui Initiative is their perogative.
Happiness has to be fought for, but you don't have to fight for it alone.
The Four Virtues
There are four primary virtues that flow into one another and inform the ethos of the Ketsui Initiative. They are not qualities innate to the self, but rather aspirational ones that must be actively strived towards.
The Hope for a Better Tomorrow
The path to change begins with HOPE. HOPE is of LIGHT, and is the foundation of all, for without hope, what point is there in action?
The Determination to Secure your Dream
HOPES and DREAMS are the two halves of BELIEF.
One of LIGHT. One of DARK. Fuel and Form. Together, they hold infinite potential. It is through the power of Determination that potential becomes reality.
The Kindness to Accept The Repentant
An open hand is offered to those who want to change. Attaching strings to forgiveness is manipulative.
However, do not mistake Kindness for Appeasement. Accepting those who atone does not mean excusing those who wish to continue evil.
The Choice to Decide your Future
Self-Determination—freedom of choice—is sacrosanct to the Ketsui Initiative.
No one's fate is predefined. Everyone deserves the freedom to choose who they are in this world. You have the right to decide your own future.
Organizational Divisions of the Ketsui Initiative
Outreach Division
"Remember who you fight for."
Often the first division an outsider will come into contact with, Outreach specializes in public-facing and diplomatic roles such as embassy staffing as well as serving as adjunct to members of Delta Divison, handling dissemination of information and potential recruitment offers to locals.
While trained in self-defense for emergency situations, members of this division are considered noncombatants and expected to act as such.
Research Division
"Salvation through Innovation."
Serving a support role for matters both internal and external, this divison specializes in Research & Development of any and all—depending on specific subdivision—technologies both civilian and military in nature.
They are held to stringent ethical standards in exchange for otherwise lenient choice of research subject and supplies of materials and funding.
Civil Division
"Build The World Worth Living In."
Composed of many subdivisions that effectively perform all the roles of domestic governance expected from a nation-state, the Civil Division primarily exists due to the fact that the Initiative's work makes contact with refugees or prospective immigrants that will inevitably require such a civil apparatus.
In addition to governance of existing settlements, other subdivisions focus on the planning and construction of settlements of various scales in both artificial habitats in microuniverses as well as more conventional cities on planets within the bounds of extant universes.
Delta Division
"Write A New Ending."
The letter "Delta" is a symbol of change. The Delta Division is the primary apparatus of the Ketsui Initiative's mission, actively intervening in the many many worlds of the multiverse to tip the scales where evil, cruelty, and oppression would otherwise win or only be defeated at pyrrhic cost.
Though trained in combat due to the existence of those unable or unwilling to be negotiated with, it is made quite clear that violence—while never off the table entirely—should seldom be the first resort.

Digital Citizenry
Although biological lifeforms may have been the first to develop sapience, in time they would not be the sole example.
With the advancement of electronic computing technology, digital individuals eventually became a reality.
Though the nature of their creation means their mental structure is comparable to organic brains, they are ultimately beings of data.
This nature means they can freely move through a parallel digital world, also accessible by organics through Virtual Reality equipment.
A set physical form is by all accounts optional; individuals who live entirely in "Cyber Space" are not uncommon.
Others—especially those actively working with the Ketsui Intiative—choose to take on a symbiotic role to Explorers or Researchers, "linking" with equipment to offer expertise and companionship in the field.
It is both policy and law that digital individuals are legal persons with all associated rights.
The creation of such persons is treated with the same gravity as biological reproduction; creation of life demands responsibility—that's the very definition of parenthood.

The PDA is a rugged, high-end handheld computer for almost any situation. Personal identification, emergency survival, and engineering are among some of the many tasks the PDA was designed to assist with.
The hardware can operate both independently and as a platform that a digital volunteer can "link" with to more efficiently assist the PDA's operator.
In the event of catastrophic damage in the latter case, an emergency backup engram will be transferred to the nearest outpost—or, failing that, a high-durability backup drive carried on the operator's person—to allow for digimedical intervention.
Due to how digital information is typically stored and transferred, this process uses thaumaturgic techniques rather than technological ones to avoid a SM-4017 "Coin Toss" Identity Crisis situation.

Personnel Dossiers:
Taylor Glade
POSITION: Founder, Chief Director
U.O.O: [REDACTED]
NOTES: For the longest time, I've never been very good at expressing myself nonverbally.
That mask was made to help with that by exaggerating my facial expressions.
Ironic, considering that a mask is usually used to hide one's face.
Kirsten Izu
POSITION: Director of Physical Sciences
U.O.O: SP-15-528
NOTES: They've always supported my dream, even back then. I don't know how I can ever thank them enough for that.
Mindy Rose
POSITION: Chief Xenolinguist
U.O.O: SP-15-528
NOTES: It's kind of scary when she shows off by seamlessly switching between half a dozen languages in as many sentences.
Rowan Cartwright
POSITION: Head Engineer
U.O.O: SP-15-528
NOTES: He's had that acoustic guitar for ages. I think it might be 74% experimental technology by volume at this point.
Ezra Lane
POSITION: Senior Advisor
U.O.O: SP-15-528
NOTES: Dr. Lane was once my supervisor back in ███████. I hold a lot of respect for her, both her knowledge and her patience with me when I was younger.
