“Don’t tell me that the Changed are just children. I have fought them, and I say that they are abominations,… but useful abominations.” – Anastasia Lucessi, Agent Chief, ISADomestic Security Agency
The ISA Domestic Security Agency started simply as part of the Corporate Security Agency, but the success of its Undercover Operations Division soon made it a major tool of the CEP. While still used as a part of the corporate police force with jurisdiction covering all corporate property (which is far larger than it was six years ago), they now have other divisions to handle specialized investigations and other tasks. Their cases cover all matters directly involving corporate interests and procedures. They can, and often do, remove police from an investigation and take it over for themselves.
ISA Agents are known for their cold, disdainful manner and are commonly known on the Street by a variety of derogatory nicknames such as “Corpsicles.” But ISA Agents always have the best equipment and tech available; their equivalent of SWAT can bring out milspec Powered Armor suits, attack AVs, or even tanks. Worse, their intelligence operatives are among the best in a very competitive business. They also have another ace up their sleeves: The Raptors—Cyber-Evolved children who have been coerced or convinced to use their talents to help the Agency hunt down their brethren.
The ISA Domestic Security Agency is definitely the single greatest threat to the Changed, since they have the resources and the subtly to go where BuReloc or the military can’t. Very scary people.
