Chase's Forces — Organization

Description

A clandestine armed unit operating under the direct command of Chancellor Chase to eliminate threats to his authority. This group functions as Chase’s private security apparatus, employing deception, coercion, and brute force to prevent the exposure of secrets linked to an alien pod. Membership includes Scorby (Chase’s chief enforcer) and his personal guard detachments, who operate both as ceremonial presence and immediate response force. Their loyalty is strictly to Chase and Scorby rather than any official institution, and they execute operations outside conventional chains of command to serve their leaders’ interests. Notable operations include the ambush of the Doctor and Sarah in a deserted quarry lane and the pursuit of the fugitives through mansion grounds.
