NOMAD

NOMAD is a secret government organisation on Earth which was active from 1126 until 2034, when the world ended. It was created to research strange occurrences and the Sea of Dimensions.

Origins
In the year 1126, King Egbert II discovered a large cave that was practically made of Iobsorbium. He decided to research this strange new metal, but he was interrupted by an angry daimōn who confiscated the metal and ran way in his flying cup.

Not surprisingly, Egbert was rather freaked by this bizarre encounter, and he created an order of knights, similar to the Knights Templar. This group was dubbed 'The Order Of Nomad', but seeing as it was so long ago, no-one actually knows what Nomad means in this context.

Discovering The Truth
NOMAD survived secretly through the years, and in 1342 discovered the daimōn in his cup, which had crashed into the ocean when he ran away from Egbert II.

The knights who found the cup flew into space, and eventually they landed on Hel. Here they met Satan, who explained the origins of the universe before obliterating them. Luckily, due to a magical link, the knights who died were able to send the information to their friends on earth.

Now that NOMAD knew the secret, nothing could stop them...

Modern Day
After 1900, NOMAD became your average secret government organisation. They kept the truth from the public, researched secret weapons, and did eeevil things.
