Of all of the branches of the Commonwealth’s military forces, the Watchmen are the most feared and loathed. Charged with rooting out rebellion and dissention, Watchmen are highly trained special agents, adept at detecting suspicious activity. They can track and evaluate suspects from a distance, determining what they are doing and whether or not they present a threat.
Watchmn wear suits made of specialized nanowires that have the unique ability to bend light around the wearer, allowing them to become almost completely invisible. In order to track their targets, they wear specialized helmets that offer both thermal and MRI vision modes, allowing them to easily follow a suspect through a dense cityscape.
For combat, Watchmen make use of the Mk V railrifle, a semi-automatic battle rifle firing 14 mm hypervelocity slugs. This weapon is highly accurate, and allows them to engage their targets from up to a kilometer away. For emergency situations, they carry a small 3 mm sub-machine gun.
Many large-scale plots and attacks have been foiled through the actions of a single, solitary agent. Watchmen are infamous among insurgent organizations and rebel cells, and almost impossible for them to counter.
