JEHO:VAH
Overview:
The Joint Enterprise for Human Opportunity: Victoria Adversus Heri* is an activist organization founded in 2002 that is opposed to much of the world's current policy of containing and experimenting on meta-humans to maintain the status quo. Members are often liberated meta-humans themselves, and the organization makes the rescue and integration of victimized meta-humans a priority. By asserting themselves as a global force to be reckoned with, JEHO:VAH's goal is to put a permanent end to illegal and unethical meta-human experimentation and subjugation. Their goal is to establish a world of equality, and to create a paradise for victimized meta-humans.
JEHO:VAH was created in the aftermath of the Cold War, from the remnants of defecting meta-humans, activists, scientists, and soldiers from Soviet and Allied states alike, brought together by their desire for justice. As the world stage broadened, so too did the number of sympathetic ears, until JEHO:VAH became the force it is today.
Structure:
JEHO:VAH has a cell-based organization, with a known leadership caste based out of an unknown location. Many of JEHO:VAH's cells are a largely political force, seeing themselves as the police of the post-metatanium world. They pride themselves on rescuing meta-humans from terrible conditions and private laboratories, and make use of high-tech experimental technology obtained from their benefactors. JEHO:VAH is composed entirely of volunteers and children, though there isn't much of an alternative for the meta-humans they come to the aid of.
Despite JEHO:VAH's peaceful message, one cell in particular seems to have adopted a more radical ideology. Allegedly, the organization's largest cell is led by a figure known only as "The Boss," believed to be a former Russian operative. The Boss and her agents are a splinter group of JEHO:VAH, created by a rogue cell that went A.W.O.L. with a majority of JEHO:VAH's high-class meta-humans in 2016. In a relatively short amount of time, they have become a major player on the world stage, and have become a considerable terrorist threat. This splinter group not only deals in meta-humans, but also in weapons running and intelligence gathering.
JEHO:VAH spends most of its attention in the modern world by hosting rallies and through supporting sympathetic charity organizations. They sponsor political campaigns that agree with and defend their ideals, and supply foreign aid to the eastern European nations.
Contrarily to the rest of her organization, The Boss has been known to covertly lend her superpowered soldiers to criminal and military organizations around the world. Although their current numbers are believed to be limited, a single company can fetch several hundred thousand euros. The most recent known mission was in 2019, in which they participated in a conflict assisting an anonymous radical organization based in Yemen.
They have been both on the side of the National Heroes Association and against it at times, depending on the situation. They largely hold the NHA in contempt for their policy on drafting meta-humans to serve as peacekeepers rather than their out-and-out liberation. JEHO:VAH has respected the NHA's formidable might enough to leave it mostly alone, but the terrorist group sharing their name doesn't share their same reservations...
NHA Peacekeepers are made to be aware of possible raids, terrorist action, and spies from JEHO:VAH, and are to notify their superiors about any activities from fellow personnel fitting the JEHO:VAH behavioral profile.
*Victoria Adversus Heri is a Latin phrase that translates roughly to "Victory Against Yesterday."
