Joint Task Force Paladin is a highly classified special operations unit deployed when conventional military forces encounter situations beyond the scope of standard warfare. Whether hunting warlords in failed states, dismantling international terrorist networks, investigating abandoned research facilities, or confronting phenomena that defy scientific understanding, Paladin is the force sent into the dark when no one else can.
Specializing in paranormal containment, anomaly suppression, and direct-action operations, JTF Paladin was established by executive order of the President of the United States following the catastrophic betrayal of humanity by the SCP Foundation. As governments around the world struggled to understand the scale of the Foundation's deception and the dangers concealed behind decades of secrecy, Paladin was created to ensure that no organization, entity, or anomaly would ever again operate beyond accountability.
