The day after that, some poor sap named Bob might need to be disposed of.

  • Destroy targets, information, and obstacles that stand in your team's way with peak efficiency.
  • Obtain intelligence and report pertinent information back to the Home Office.
  • Cooperation with other members of designated team in all mission-critical activities.
  • Securing additional streams of revenue and acquisition of resources during missions (See 'Sidequest" clause in standard employment contract)

As an Obviator, you solve problems.   If you have to ask what sort of problems, you might not be the right pick for the job.
"Obviation is not as much a philosophy as it is a practice. It's not a good fit for those who want to remain... you know, fully alive."
