BOARD

Short for the , , the organization higher-ups's motive was to unleash the sealed Undead Cards.
==History==
The Board of Archaeological Research Department was found with the discovery of ancient ruins in a Tibetan cave. There were murals describing the Battle Fight between the 53 Undeads, as well as the that contained the sealed Undeads' Rouze Cards. Hiroshi Tennoji established BOARD to study these findings. He assumed position of chairman of BOARD and began researching the actual situation of the Battle Fight, which he named "the fundamental history of humanity", and the cards he retrieved from the recovered the Board Stone. However, these facts are kept secret from all but a few, and the organization is ostensibly an institution that explores the mysteries of history prior to the present human history, based on the hypothesis that there are other factors behind human prosperity that cannot be explained by the theory of evolution.
Later, when Yoshito Hirose unsealed the Undeads, BOARD hastily developed the Rider System to reseal the freed Undeads. Tennoji, who was the chairman at the time, took responsibility and resigned, and Kei Karasuma became the director of the institute. Afterwards, the researcher Sakuya Tachibana and the newly scouted Kazuma Kenzaki, who were found to be a suitable candidates, were assigned the task of sealing the Undead, but the research institute was destroyed by an attack by the Locust Undead. However, the institute has a higher-level organization, Tennoji's private organization, and Kenzaki and Tachibana were still paid salaries in the name of BOARD even after the institute was destroyed.

In the alternate reality World of Blade, the Riders are high rank employees of the , and are effectively , whose job it is to combat the Undead once receiving clearance to use Rouzers. In BOARD, there is a ranking system with Ace at the top followed by King, Queen, Jack, and then the Numbers, with Two at the bottom. The backdrop used to arrive in this world shows a hand of facedown Rouse Cards with the Ace of Spades Change Beetle card faced up. Within this A.R. World, Tsukasa assumes the role of chief waiter within BOARD and is given the ability to completely destroy Undead without sealing them.
==Super Hero Taisen GP==
At the end of the film, car racer Kyoichiro Kuroi, whom was the Shocker Cyborg Kamen Rider 3 in the altered timeline, had BOARD as one of his sponsors, with said emblem visible on his racing suit.
==Kamen Rider Outsiders==
As Zein emerged, BOARD chose to side with the entity. Sakuya Tachibana worked with George Karizaki to create Zein Cards, which contained the powers lent by the Kamen Riders Karizaki talked to. After Nico Saiba installed Kamen Rider Chronicle program into Karizaki's Zein Driver, the device was used by Yuto Sakurai who then transformed into Kamen Rider Zein.
