GROUPS OF INTEREST IN
GERMANOPHONE REGIONS
File Overview: The Foundation is not the only group with an interest and investment in the paranormal and metaphysical. There are many other groups in existence who possess, use, or attempt to create SCP objects, either for their own personal gain or for the protection of mankind. Some are rival organizations, some are splinter groups of the Foundation, and some are trusted associates of the Foundation. In any case, it has been deemed necessary to create and distribute a brief on which agencies the Foundation knows about, and our stance towards them.
The Fourth Reich
Original Name: Das Vierte Reich
Overview: The Fourth Reich (4R) is an organisation lead by an occultist and scientist calling himself "Mister Rass". According to information found by the Foundation, Rass worked for the Third Reich from 1941 to 1943, until the SS considered him too great a threat and tried to assassinate him. Mister Rass has since secretly worked on the creation of a successor organisation, named the Fourth Reich.
Besides Rass, the Fourth Reich mostly consists of people recruited by Rass and granted anomalous abilities through a mixture of rituals and experiments (for example, SCP-077-DE and SCP-097-DE). This was done to enable them to destroy the "Unclean" and, in the future, take control of the biggest political Factions. Mister Rass also created and/or modified various machines through rituals and experiments, such as SCP-084-DE.
Mister Rass knows about the Foundation, but by his own accord doesn't consider it a threat, rather as "insignificant annoyance". However, he has also expressed his admiration for the Foundation, describing it as the "guardian of this world".

Raptor Tec. Industries
Overview: Raptor Tec. Industries is a corporation for research and development. As of yet, the only known site is located at the border between Germany and Austria. Raptor Tec. specializes in weapons, vehicles, drones and artificial intelligence, focussing mainly on drones and AI.
Originally, Raptor Tec. Industries was a supplier for the Foundation in Germany. When the Foundation realized that the delivered equipment had anomalous properties, it tried to take control of Raptor Tec. by force. It failed, and the only known site was destroyed.
Years later, new products of Raptor Tec. have appeared on the black market, and Foundation-sites within Germany have been repeatedly attacked. It is assumed that Raptor Tec. is testing its products during these attacks.

Division XXV
Original Name: Abteilung XXV
Overview: Division XXV was a secret department of the Ministry of State Security of the GDR. It was tasked with the research into anomalies for utilization by the state to achieve its own goals. Their main focus was, among other things, anomalous applications of espionage, sabotage and control of the populace.
Division XXV existed from 1956 until 1989 and was closed down, so that the staff members of the department would not face persecution. Whilst Department XXV might not exist anymore, the anomalies created by it were left behind unsupervised.
Using the remaining documentation describing Division XXV, the Foundation is devoting its efforts to try to locate and recover the remains of the Division, however, they discovered on multiple occasions that they weren't fast enough to do so. The whereabouts of a large portion of the anomalies are still unknown.

Caecus Carneliana-Collective
Original Name: Caecus Carneliana-Kollektiv
Overview: The Caecus Carneliana-Collective is an active organisation, hostile to the Foundation, that wants to achieve the release of sentient SCPs contained by the German branch of the Foundation. The Collective attacks sites of the German branch and frees sentient SCPs. The Caecus Carneliana-Collective is led by so-called 'branches' and a 'stem'.
Caecus Carneliana has existed for quite some time, but revealed itself to the 'public' only after the DE/B33-incident on the ██.██.19██. Since then, the Caecus Carneliana-Collective has sabotaged several Foundation Sites. It is known that the Collective has contacts with other groups of interest.
The Foundation is aware of the Collective, and is trying to contain the members of Caecus Carneliana. It is not known where members of C.C. are currently located, but the possibility of a fixed residence for its members is being considered. The origin of the members and of the Collective is also unknown.

The Mages Academy
Original Name: Die Magierakademie
Overview: The Mages Academy is a group with locations in several European countries, headquartered in Germany, whose mission is to explore and teach the safe use of anomalous skills in the form of "magic". While the Foundation considers anomalies to be a danger and tries to control them by all means, the Academy sees anomalies as a natural part of the world and tries to achieve a harmonious coexistence, by dealing with anomalies in a largely non-violent and scientific way.
The Academy has covert agents in most of the major locations of the German-speaking Foundation, and some in Europe, who observe the Foundation's work, exert influence here and there, and coordinate secret support or countermeasures through the Academy. Since its exposure by Acolytes of the Fourth Reich, the Academy has kept a low profile, but has recently taken the initiative and is now trying to work with the Foundation.

IMBW
Translation of Name: Institute for Human Education and Development
Overview: Founded in 1972 as a Berlin research institution, the Institut für menschliche Bildung und Weiterentwicklung (IMBW) describes an institution of scientists, researchers and professors, who have made it their mission to collect anomalies all over the world for the use and benefit of the human species.
In 2004, an incident occurred within the Foundation in which staff members turned out to be a member of the IMBW. According to them, they decided to join the IMBW during their career at the Foundation, and acted as spies in the Foundation since. According to discovered information, the institution has continued to exist since its inception, with the primary approach being to salvage and use the use of anomalous objects to maintain, develop and enhance human education and the human being.
The institution has not always been a major issue for the Foundation, and attempts have rarely been made to steal SCPs from the Foundation. Even though the Institute has a great interest in some SCP objects, it has sufficient respect for the power of the Foundation.

Sonderkommando for the Paranormal
Original Name: Sonderkommando für Paranormales
Overview: The Sonderkommando for the Paranormal is an organization of the Third Reich for the investigation of anomalies, which in our reality was dissolved after the fall of the Third Reich.
In Incident #028-DE/I2, the SKP attempted to invade our reality from reality R-3378-DE, which could only be narrowly averted by a concatenation of happy circumstances. The SKP must be seen as absolutely hostile. It is known that they will try again to invade our reality, and then will be much better prepared. If they fail to ward off their invasion at an early stage, it is to be assumed that they can no longer be stopped.
Due to a data leak, numerous data from R-3378-DE could be tapped.

Das Wunderkabinett
Overview: The group of interest known as "Das Wunderkabinett" is a relatively small organization that sells anomalous everyday goods and custom-made products with an unknown agenda. Despite several attempts to contain anomalies made by the group, the cabinet has never shown signs of hostility towards the Foundation.
Miss Mirabilis first came into contact with the SCP Foundation in 1995 with the discovery of SCP-124-DE-1. Since then, the German branch of the Foundation has documented an increasing number of incidents in which other persons have revealed themselves as members of the group of interest "Das Wunderkabinett", which apparently has Miss Mirabilis as its leader.
Although the cabinet has attempted to help the Foundation several times, the group is seen as a threat to normality, as the improper handling of its products has often led to personal injury, property damage and/or the need for cover-ups. Members also cooperate with many other groups of interest, which has increasingly led to global action. The complete arrest of the group is further hampered by the fact that they operate from a shop with a spatial anomaly, and possess additional anomalies and even support from larger groups of interest.
