Adventure Squad International

**Adventure Squad International** is a quartet of branches of Adventure Squad at the North, South, East and West of Earth. They handle emergencies localized in their regional quadrant, and assist the main branch in the battle against Demon X.

## History

The branches were created by direct prompting of the world governments to deal with Demon X, who's attacks have been increasingly relentless in recent times. To this end, sites were prepared for base construction and 4 sets of rescue mechs (each with a crew of children) for modifications. The branches operate as a part of the International Safety Committee to the public eye, despite being a part of Adventure Squad in secret. Due to said arrangements, General Orion was assigned the task of being the main commander alongside Thomas, who took some convincing to allow the project to continue on the children side of operations. The robot units had their AI cores developed in separate facilities across the globe, with Adventure Squad training both human and machine to be in sync. Each branch team was trained by Thomas and Carson, who were covered in the main branch by Lady and Tim. Thomas and Carson also built the bases, which were mobile to avoid detection.

The concept of the branches were brought up by Richard Murphy, solely to spite Thomas and bring bad publicity to Adventure Squad. Unfortunately for Murphy, his transparent attempts at disguising his contempt for everyone else meant that the squad *and* the ISC were very much well aware of his motives, and as such were able to limit and outright prevent him from bending the project's direction to what *he* desired.

## Notes

* The branches' mechs are based on toys from the *Prime Wars Trilogy* portion of the *Transformers: Generations* toyline, though while the Western branch uses the *Power of the Primes* Dinobots as inspiration, the rest of the branches use the *Combiner Wars* versions of the Aerialbots, Protectobots and Combaticons as templates.
