Irregularity Assessment Syndicate (IAS)

The Irregularity Assessment Syndicate, or IAS, is an international agency that works to track and target criminal Supernaturals. Formed shortly after the second world war, the IAS enjoys the backing of the United Nations and has a plethora of contacts within the world's major countries.
The IAS is also home to an entire Order of Adepts, the Enforcers, who see to it that all infringements on the Discipline Arcani are investigated promptly and dealt with.

The Irregularity Assessment Syndicate, or simply IAS, is an international coalition of military forces united together under the common banner of national security in the face of any supernatural threats. At least that's what's printed on top of most official documents bandied about through the bureaucratic labyrinth that is the internal IAS network.
The reality is that the IAS is a 'secret club' of governmental agents welded to the Order of Enforcers. While their agenda is to maintain national security, some forces within the IAS secretly wish for either total control of the Supernaturals (including the Adepts) or their total elimination instead (well, total elimination of the more problematic Supernatural races at least).
The IAS has repeatedly in the past attempted to seize control of the Supernaturals, most especially the Orders of Adepts. Everything from capturing Order leaders to extortion and blackmail - most of which has backfired spectacularly. In retaliation, Adepts have had to launch raids into IAS facilities to free comrades and secure information on the agency's operations. During the Cold War era the IAS attempted so many crimes against humanity that an out-and-out Crusade was launched against them by the Ecclesiastical Orders.
Right now the tension between the IAS and the other Orders of Adepts can best be described as simmering. There is no real peace, just a mutual understanding that each side lacks the proper time and resources to bring the other down.
