OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing
The Occult Wildlife Landing (OWL) is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of supernatural creatures to live a life unmolested by humanity’s relentless spread and greed.
While OWL has become the de-facto head of the conservationist movement in the United States, many claim it’s not as innocent as it appears. A number of small, seemingly-disconnected terrorist cells wear the OWL insignia with pride. These groups– which tend to contain a disproportionate number of supernatural creatures and beings– commit high-profile acts of public violence with the intent of furthering OWL’s core objectives. In the past, they’ve blown up oil pipelines, stopped development projects, and even infected congregations of people with mutagenic viruses.
OWL denies any involvement with these so-called “OWL-inspired terrorist organizations” (or OITOs for short). However, many people conflate the two and consider OWL itself to be a terrorist organization.
One thing is for certain: when OWL sends a blast to its followers urging protest, they’re taken seriously.

The stare down
At some point you can get the feeling of what kind of person some one is, from just looking at them.
Yado intensely stares at the target while moving aside his jacket. People looking back at him can see, that he seems to be carrying a pistol. His contact from the other side tests him by pitting a copy of Yado’s astral spirit against the target in the duel.
The better Yado performs, the more pleased is the contact from the other side. The information gathered from the contact is depending of how pleased the contact is.
Yado will be able to hear a whispering inside his mind, which is the contact, telling him what he wants to hear.
After a while of being in this line of work, you begin to view people and their problems as unimportant, in the grand scheme of things.
The life Yado lives is connected with understanding dangers, just by looking at them. You have to understand the person you are up against, just from looking at them.
