This is an open playtest for final feedback before release.
The year is 1988. The Soviet Union is still a major power, but has begun to crumble slowly. Power shifts as the Soviet Union crumbles, and smaller regions find themselves in control of deadly nuclear arsenals. South America is undergoing a slow socialist revolution. The Middle East is a cauldron of unrest, with the Palestinian declaration of independence throwing more fuel onto the fire. China is rising.
No one knows where the next threat will come from. Some governments begin cooperating, pooling their resources to share intelligence. They commission a new agency. Nameless, faceless, the agency implements what it terms the Zero Protocol, and begins recruiting from a wide selection of outside organizations.
From a vast pool of candidates an elite few arise. This elite trains in secret to combat threats as they arrive, or pre-empt them if possible. But their work can never reach the light of day. Their accomplishments remain unsung. Their governments can never acknowledge what they do.
Disavowed if caught, they officially do not exist.
They are Zeroes. You are a Zero.
If spy fiction in the vein of Robert Ludlum and Ken Follett is up your alley, I'll supply you an official copy of the system pdf to build a character.
