AEON Program

The **AEON Program**, also referred as **AEON** pronounced as [ee-oh-n], is an organization in *Deathloop*. It is the current inhabitant of Blackreef.

## Overview

AEON is "a group of opportunistic 20-somethings who call themselves 'Visionaries'", an organization responsible for creating a timeloop over the Isle of Blackreef. Initially, the program consisted of 9 Visionaries and the recruited Affiliates and Backers (i.e. Eternalists), until Colt betrayed and left the organization.

> These Visionaries want to escape the constraints and discomforts of the world. AEON's goal is simple: pursue the dream of an eternal life free from consequence and far from society.

The AEON Program is an association of cutting-edge technologists, artisans, and mixologists, all aiming for one: creating a pleasure-seeker's paradise, a never ending party without any possible repercussions.

## History

The AEON Program was founded sometime before 1960, by Egor Serling, Wenjie Evans and Harriet Morse, as a way of advancing human science by exploiting the Anomaly.

Following the creation of AEON, Egor bailed Colt out of Dargyey Institute, since the ex-soldier was the only person with knowledge of the island's location. Thus, the first Visionary sans the founders have been recruited. The remaining five were recruited later, under different circumstances.

Sometime in 1960, AEON set its foot on the Isle of Blackreef, and started the construction of different facilities needed to accommodate their research. AEON's manpower has repurposed old Operation Horizon's buildings and bunkers, as well as built new facilities.

The organization and its plans of creating a timeloop were heavily advertised as 'escaping' from the reality's impending self-destruction, as well as a place of consequence-less fun. Along with different advertising, Colt's veteran status was used to urge people to join AEON's initiative.

Starting from 1963, Blackreef and AEON are experiencing the timeloop, along with its side-effects—although, unbeknownst to its residents.

## Goals and Tenets

AEON was created with a goal of advancing human potential, preserving society's brightest minds, and researching the Anomaly: its origins, effects and likability of exploiting; as well as creating a highly independent chrono-controlled environment for unrestricted fun on an isolated island far away from the mainland.

As such, its residents follow three tenets, created by the Visionaries.

### Tenets

* **Trust Your Visionaries:** in a situation of a debate, the Visionary's demand holds greater value.
* **Follow Your Fun:** the Eternalists are free to explore their own scientific or other calling.
* **Protect The Loop:** the Loop's stability is the greatest importance.

## Participants

AEON Program's members are the only residents of the Blackreef island, and thus make up the entirety of its residents.

### Eternalists

Together with the nine Visionaries, Eternalists are a part of the organization: a group of nameless and faceless people, previously recruited as *Affiliates* or *Backers*. Eternalists are the main manpower behind the construction and decoration of the island.

**AEON Affiliates** are ex-criminals, heavily recruited by Harriet and Frank from a maximum security prison, convincing the warden to institute a work release program through the help of a donation from Aleksis and Backers.

**AEON Backers** are members of wealthy Motherland's families, recruited by the chief financial backer.

## Trivia

* Despite requiring tremendous financial support, AEON does not use money since initiating the Loop to avoid creating a fundamental separation between classes.
* Some of AEON Program's Visionaries come from wealthy families:
	+ Aleksis Dorsey is a young Dorsey Pharmaceuticals CEO;
	+ Fia Zborowska is a successor to Zborowski Logistics;
	+ Harriet Morse is an ex-owner of an Morse Center Cartridges;
	+ Egor Serling comes from a wealthy family.
