Hey hey! I've got a mission going. It'll benefit us all, and I think you'll be perfect for the job...
The House of Spies is an independent espionage organization run by
Fallington Stacks, a wealthy man with lots of connections to various governments and intelligence entities. The aim of this company is said to be recruiting talented spies from across various places of the world to work together towards one goal regardless of their affiliation. Before embarking upon their assigned task, operatives are put through a series of puzzles and tests to ensure they are capable of completing the mission at hand. Many participants crack under the pressure, quit, are eliminated, or meet their demise before the ultimate challenge is even presented.
What? What's wrong? Why do you look so scared? You're a talented agent. You have nothing to worry about. Whatever stories you heard about me, forget about them. People just don't want you to benefit from the awesomeness. They wanna hog all your epicness to themselves. You're an individual not to be controlled. Do what YOU want.
There is one known leader at the top;
Fallington Stacks. He makes himself known and his presence is almost always felt. He also has several employees working directly under him who keep things organized and make sure all operatives visiting from other companies are always in check.
Who else? What do you mean? It's just me. I'm all you need. All these goons? They're just menial helpers. YOU can partner with me and actually join this place. Do you know how much you can make? Look at all these rooms! Look at all these perks! Look at all this cha ching! Tell me you don't want a part of this.
The environment is made to seem fun and friendly, but there are creepy undertones at every corner. Spies gathered here are supposed to be working together, but tension is felt all around. Many are paranoid that everyone else has an ulterior motive and could possibly betray them.
Some of the other spies here, they're from other companies. Don't worry about them. I've got my eye on YOU. You are promising. Those other guys? They're just here for formality. You won't have to worry about them after a while. ;)
Though the organization is kept secret from the public, many private spy companies are familiar with its existence. Everyone has their own opinion about the House of Spies. Many businesses don't trust allowing their operatives to visit or participate in any collaborations involving the organization in fears that their agents will be destroyed, injured, or convinced to turn against their company.
Listen...we're good here. We're probably better than where you're coming from. Think about it...
The House of Spies has various locations across the globe, but one of its most notable venues is a sky scraper on a remote island in the Pacific. There are several floors all with different themes. There are also boarding quarters for all visiting guests. In addition, many meeting rooms can be found, as well as training rooms and recreational rooms. The place is reminiscent of a resort.
I'm so glad you've finally decided to join us! Here are the keys to your room. Good luck. ;)
