The Nexus’s surface seems to react to touch, and its inner mechanisms operate using a form of advanced energy that predates modern engineering. Some believe that the light shining from its pinnacle is a reflection of the founders’ vision; a beacon to guide all from darkness. Its geometric design mirrors that of the Syndicate’s Sanctums. When activated, it fills with light, serving not merely as an ornament but as a conduit to unlock the hidden mysteries within; If a Vigilante possesses a Nexus long enough, it will begin to reveal its deciphered clues.

THERE IS BEAUTY
We never turn those away whose discerning eyes have glimpsed the truth.
The world you have known until today is but a shadow of the real world that has existed since time immemorial...
DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?
WE INVITE YOU!
To become a Vigilantes you must complete the Syndicate’s Rite of Passage. The Syndicate will provide you a kind of world map and location device unlike any other in existence. The Cipher has been granted to you to be your eyes into the shadows of the Syndicate. Though still in its base mode, you shall see the world around you as only Vigilantes can see it.
Origins of the Syndicate
In the aftermath of the First World War, a series of ancient Egyptian and Mayan artifacts were unearthed, revealing not mere static relics, but functioning pieces of a lost technology. While these discoveries were quickly hidden from the public, the intrigue they sparked within influential circles would not be extinguished.
Thus, a radical idea began weaving its way through enlightened aristocratic minds: Bring these artifacts together and use the secrets hidden within to covertly enlighten the nations of the world and bring everlasting peace. From this collective desire, the Syndicate was born.
IN MEMORIAM
