Peacekeepers

Background
The Peacekeepers were designed to assist ENFPOL agents in the field to combat crime on the streets of Panau, after ENFPOL's agents went into decline and their priorities shifted, they are a militarised police force, armed with only single-handed weapons and armed attack vehicles.

These people will patrol the streets of Panau, working hand in hand with the remaining ENFPOL agents, Detectives (during cases of importance), and the Department of Justice (DoJ).

These brave men and women will often risk their lives at armed bank robberies, and territorial skirmishes, acting only on the behalf of the Government and Department of Justice, while helping defend Panauan civlians from criminals and rebel insurgencies.

Lore
'' 'It would be raining heavily over the Government HQ, Viktor Woltz; a man of many words and talents, would sit promptly at his desk admiring the Panau tropical rainfall whilst Frank Overwood, PM of Justice, would be seated in-front of him - mimicking the admiration. BANG! A gun-shot would ripple through the entire HQ and alert anyone within the radius. A revolver, 44. Magnum round - a roaches delight. The sound of a Dalton N90 would speed off into the distance as Mr. Woltz and Mr. Overwood would anxiously take a look outside. A Panau Police Officer - shot dead in cold blood; in his hand would be a parking ticket. Charming. ''

"This is the sixth death in the past week; the police are simply not strong enough."  'Viktor would already be accustomed to the presence of death now in Panau, rain would plummet onto his head whilst he spoke.' 

"They simply are not strong enough sir, we need something; the enforcers are too tied up to protect civilians and enforce the law of the land. None of them are equipped to survive the harsh climates and violence of Panau."  'Frank would reply, rather concerned about the dead-man.' 

'' 'Agents would swarm the place and retrieve the body - screams and shock would be heard but the two men of the government would return to the office inside; thinking deeply about a new idea they both had. It would be a few hours before a conclusion was made and they would brainstorm it onto a piece of paper.' ''

"They will be better equipped, trained and utilized. Military standard but here for the protection of our people. This new initiative will be called the Peacekeepers and they will like no other. They can survive the raging war in Panau and work with all factions; gangster, natives and communists." '' 'Viktor would proudly announce. And so, that was it - the initiative was passed and the Peacekeepers were created.' ''

 'Viktor would place his hand firmly on Franks shoulder.'  "This Frank, is the start of a new era; a new Panau."

The Council
The Council is an illusive group of members (some of whom have little direct connection to the Peacekeepers, yet can have a large influence on their affairs) who will keep their names concealed at all times, they work behind closed doors to determine what should be done to push the Peacekeeper's department onwards, they also have been said to have quite the word in Peacekeeper's promotions...

Only the Chief knows all the members of The Council, however even then, such information is classified, these contacts do share common interests, in addition, these contacts are partially responsible for the Peacekeepers secret armoury, and some of the gear in there...
