We recently had the joy of reading through over 100 entries for a contest where members of the community submitted their own idea for an Agent as a part of the Agent Network!
Four winners get some prizes as well as their Agent bio implemented into the game as actual agents one can command via the Agent Network, with one of those winners getting a custom-drawn portrait from one of our artists! Here are your winners:
GRAND PRIZE

Name: “The Cleaner”
Gender: Male
Profession: CoV Occult clean-up crew
Age: 45Physical Description: He’s seen things. Things with tentacles. He’s probably seen nearly everything. Large, sleep deprived, caffeine-strong eyes that have looked into the void. And then… mopped it up. He looks older than he is – his face is quite drawn and grumpy – this guy doesn’t sleep easy at night. And…he has a mop dun dun duhhhh
Agent Background: A long-term member of “The Janitors”, a special occult clean-up crew employed by the Council of Venice, this subject is well-versed in a lot of the happenings within The Secret World. He’s seen things. Things with tentacles. Armed with his trusty mop “Bessie”, he’s stared deep into the void… and mopped up whatever had just been spat from it. Subject has become bored and tired of finding new and creative ways to dispose of ex-Orochi employees, and feels his talents could be better used on a wider range of missions. He is willing to do almost anything to prove his usefulness.

Human

Agent Background:
Subject was one born of the sea, figuratively speaking. Always found the shore and ocean more like home than anywhere else. Captains a vessel called The Sea Sloth, where he spends much of his leisure time at sea fishing. Definitely one of wit and intelligence, and not to be underestimated just by his looks. If it needs doing then he will get it done one way or another. Subject also has a sly tongue and can bargain with just about anyone. Beware if if he approaches you saying “Feesh for Sale”. This man could sell a fish to a rock if he wanted to.
