Crozier's Group

Covert Medical Research and Indigenous Suppression on Thoros Beta

Description

A covert research collective operating under Dr. Crozier's command within Thoros Beta's medical facilities, specializing in experimental procedures for the Mentors. The group forcibly maintains patients like Kiv and conducts life-force harvesting operations that extend the Mentor-controlled biological augmentation program. Frax's guards enforce their operations, eliminating dissent while advancing the Mentors' systemic control over the native population through surgical and psychological domination.

Events with structured involvement data

2 events

S23E5 · Mindwarp Part 1

Doctor and Peri uncover horrors in the cave

Crozier's Group is directly implicated as the operators of the life-force extraction device, working in service to the Mentors. Frax's orders to take the Doctor and Peri to Crozier's laboratory for interrogation indicate their central role in the conspiracy's enforcement and analysis.

Active Representation

Through Frax's directives to transport suspects to Crozier's laboratory for identity verification and interrogation

Power Dynamics

Subordinate to the Mentors but exercising direct operational control over the cave and its technology

Institutional Impact

Reveals the group's complicity in systemic exploitation through forced compliance and life-force extraction protocols

Organizational Goals

Verify the identities of suspicious outsiders to prevent exposure of their experiments Investigate the Raak's regression to maintain the integrity of their augmentation programs

Influence Mechanisms

Deployment of upgraded enforcers like the Raak Use of dissection laboratories to study and recalibrate 'regressions'

S23E5 · Mindwarp Part 1

Frax accuses the Doctor and seizes his weapon

Crozier’s Group operates through Frax and the station guards, who enforce silence on the Doctor’s questions and bundle witnesses toward the dissection lab. Their presence is not reasoned inquiry but procedural violence, ensuring that any deviance—like a dead Raak or alien discovery—is processed within Crozier’s deadly research protocols.

Active Representation

Through Frax and guards executing chain-of-command removals to Crozier’s laboratory

Power Dynamics

Operating under the Mentors as enforcers of a predatory research agenda, wielding coercive force while pretending at institutional legitimacy

Institutional Impact

Exposes how scientific ethics have collapsed into institutionalized cruelty; process replaces morality, and any transgression is redefined as criminal to protect a deadly secret.

Internal Dynamics

Clear hierarchy: Frax gives orders grounded in institutional mandate, guards execute without reflection—reflecting a chain of command unburdened by ethical scrutiny.

Organizational Goals

Remove unauthorized witnesses to Crozier’s life-extraction experiments to prevent exposure Use institutional procedure to validate violent control as rational governance

Influence Mechanisms

Immediate physical sequestration of suspects under pretext of identity verification Utilization of emergency protocols to justify overnight detention and dissection oversight
