SCAR is famous for its role as one of the underworld’s primary sources of “freelance security consultants” (read: “mercenaries”). Unlike its competitors, SCAR is known for not asking too many questions when negotiating for contracts, and for not caring about the nature of the work it’s asked to provide. The organization began as a mercenary company during the Afghanistan War. Its founder, James Anderson, a veteran of several conflicts in wartorn areas of the world, struggled to keep his company afloat amid constant cultural revolutions in regions where SCAR operated.

In recent years, the company becomes something with a different agenda, having but one objective: the accumulation of wealth and influence. All other goals: expanding operations, gaining more powerful agents, acquiring more lucrative contracts, and the like, serve to further the company’s primary goal. And now is a loosely organized group, no set chain of command with a rough pecking order based on the ebb and flow of the Inner Circle’s personal power. Each member of the Inner Circle maintains independent bases of operation, each one having their own agents and mercenaries.

The lack of trust between members does not allow them to cooperate enough to build any communal space and their meetings almost always take place over encrypted video connections, rarely in person. Even though the members of the Inner Circle share a common allegiance to SCAR and its goals, their primary allegiance is usually to themselves and their own hidden agendas. Agents (or Field Operatives) are chosen to represent them in negotiations and to command mercenary forces.

SCAR is obviously an organization with flexible morals, to say the least. Its reputation is not particularly good, except with the sort of individuals who don’t care how a job is done, only that it is completed in a timely and efficient manner, with no questions asked. Those employed by SCAR are loyal to the company, primarily due to the exceptional wages paid them. The company deals with “traitors” harshly.

At present, the majority of SCAR's resources are scattered among the eight inner circle members. The company’s liquid assets are a bit limited to shady political donations, multinationals and contracts.
