Joseph Gocong cratered to a 785, a full 67 below his 852 rating, and the Ghost Index's response was to hand him Direct Contact Alpha. Either the signal jamming corrupted the surveillance feed or the Bureau promotes on sheer audacity now. Redacted. Moving on — the tag moved up one spot while the rating fell off a cliff, which tracks for a system that 'cannot be purged' and apparently cannot read scorecards either.

Character Sheet
AI-written · FATE styleThe Ghost Index was created during the Bureau's earliest days as a classified failsafe tracking system. It operates completely outside official channels, monitoring players through methods that leave no evidence in standard databases. Agents have whispered about 'the Ghost' for decades - a system that knows you're playing even when you've erased yourself from every official record. Once you're on it, you're always on it - it cannot be purged.
The Ghost Index exists as an invisible surveillance network that cannot be detected through normal means. It tracks behavioral patterns across all leagues simultaneously, creating a persistent monitoring system that operates on different infrastructure than official Bureau databases. Attempting to verify your status on the Index is itself a suspicious action that gets recorded - making the act of checking for surveillance a self-incriminating behavior.
The Ghost Index serves as the Bureau's ultimate surveillance wildcard - it tracks players across all leagues through methods that leave no evidence, and attempting to verify your status on it is itself a suspicious action that gets recorded. Players can never determine if they're being monitored or if they've already been forgotten, creating the perfect atmosphere of paranoid uncertainty.
