Mithril Organization
Not affiliated with any government, Mithril was formed several decades before others like it. A phantom paramilitary organization that hires mercenary soldiers from all countries of the world they are a counter-terrorist group that seeks out, attacks and destroys guerrilla hideouts and terrorist training camps. In layman’s terms, they “put out the fires of boundary diputes.” It is rumored that Mithril has the most powerful military capability in the world. The person in charge at Mithril who overseas the governing council is a man named Lord Mallory. The organization is devided into three departments. The Combat Division is under General voda, formerly of the United States Navy, and he has four fleets operating under him. It is headquartered in Sydney, Autralia in a security firm named Argarus. The intelligence Division, as the name suggests, collects data. Through a network of reconnaissance satellites , they are able to collect and disseminate information. They also serve as a crucial communication link during operations conducted by the Combat Division. It is said that they have covert members engaged in espionage. It is headed by General Mayer Amit, originally from Israel. The Research Division conducts research in “Black Technology” develops new weaponry and analyzes military techniques and strategy. The person in charge is Dr. Painrose and he has set up bases throughout the world disguised as local businesses and research facilities. The mission of Mithril, which answers to no man, religion, or government is “to stop international disputes.” Just how was this secret anti-terrorist organization which is named after an unbreakable metal of legend formed? The details are shrouded in mystery.
The Mithril Western Pacific Fleet is the newest battle group of the Combat Division. Its home port is on Merida, an uninhabited island in the Pacific Ocean situated at 20 degrees, 60 minutes North Longitude|140 degrees, 3 minutes East Latitude. The flagship TDD-1 is Mithril’s most powerful submarine. It operates primarily out of the Western Pacific Ocean. Despite her youth, 16 year old Captain Teletha Testarossa is the commanding officer of the TDD-1. Her second-in-command is Commander Richard Mardukas. Lt. Commander Andrei Kalinin, who has years of war experience, serves as military strategist. Tuatha de Danaan, the name of the fleet as well as the flagship, is of Celtic origin translated to mean “People of the Goddess Danu.” It is fitting as the crewmen are essentially the people of the goddess Tessa.
The Special Response Team fulfills extremely difficult missions. It’s members are elite soldiers who are handpicked for their skills and knowledge. A select few, they are assigned call names beginning with the word “Uruz” which means “power.” It is unknown exactly how many there are but records have shown at least twelve.
