The Sinner Brigade (also known as the Sinners' Brigade, Order of the Sinners and League of Sinners) is a covert organization that is featured in the TACITUS series. Originally a black operations organization within the National Security Agency formed a week after the September 11 Attacks, the organization abruptly splintered from its parent organization in the United States government and became an independent, but still covert, organization. Now they are loyal to no one but themselves, treating everyone else as a potential enemy.
==Overview==
Founded a week after the September 11 Attacks, Sinners' Brigade originally functioned as a black operations unit inside the National Security Agency, waging cyber-warfare and acts of sabotage against potential enemies of America. However, in 2011, they splintered from the National Security Agency, and became an independent organization, its members holding allegiance to no one but themselves.
==Background==
With the September 11 Attacks, the Sinners' Brigade was formed to perform covert intelligence work against Raven to discover their new cyber-capabilities. However, in 2011 the group splintered from the United States government, though still gathering intelligence on the country's behalf at times. 
During its time in the National Security Agency, the organization tasked its members with seizing communications signals and rerouting them to the NSA for analysis. After splintering from the NSA, however, the Sinners' Brigade utilized cyberwarfare, cyber-espionage and sabotage operations against its perceived enemies to cripple and destroy them.
==Assets==
The assets in the Sinners' Brigade are referred to as either Sin-Eaters, or merely Sinners (after the Biblical term for people born under the curse of sin). As a sabotage operation, are the "scapegoats" of the espionage\sabotage world, taking credit for missions conducted by other organizations (which happily let them) in order to pin the blame on themselves (hence the term "Sin-Eater").
