Camp-X Training Facility / Intrepid Park
Camp-X was, at one point in time, home to the best spy training program in the world. It was so...er..."recognized", for want of a better term, as a secret facility that it has, at various points, played host to Ian Fleming, creator of James Bond, Roald Dahl, celebrated children's author and spy, and Igor Gouzenko, who defected from the USSR to bring Canada secrets securing her from Cold War threats.

All of this is common knowledge. What is less common is the knowledge of //why// Camp-X was so effective. Those in the know circulate a rumour that it was because it had a forbidden tome called "The Shadows of the Mind" which dealt with neuromancy in a big way. Ideal techniques to teach potential spies, turning them into Minor Talents. And think about it. In war, what's one more person with shell shock? The psychological damages of violations regarding the Third and Fourth Laws would go all but unnoticed.
 * The Idea**

The book is gone now, as is Camp-X. It's "Intrepid Park", now, actually quite a peaceful place to visit if you have the chance. That said, though, some things linger from that time, not visible to the average person. This place has become stained, and though the ground has been rejuvenated into Intrepid Park, the damage of Camp-X remains. As for where the book has gone, well..."Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?"

The Shadow Knows
 * The Aspect**

Donovan "Don" Sullivan
 * The Face**

Not many people know old Don Sullivan well; most would recognize him as little more than a kindly old man. Remember the guy who played Brooks in //The Shawshank Redemption//? Like that, only (if possible), more knobbly and more kindly. And yet Don has an absolute passion for everything Camp-X. Currently, a collection of Camp-X artifacts, maintained in an off-site museum, has become less-than-profitable, and some investors have become very interested in purchasing the building and everything in it, likely to be broken up and moved to private collections. This has sparked in Don a passion not seen in nearly 50 years of his life. He has begun agitating to raise funds, to get support, to keep the collection together. Support is growing, but slowly. He only hopes it will grow fast enough to save his life's work.
