Processing (TWL)

Processing is the dirty work of the Library. Though some assignments are more comfortable than others, no matter what the assignment you are doing the grunt work. From cleaning out cages to feeding moderately hostile entities, this is where typically the organization experiences its highest body count.

This is the first time the players begin to interact with 'Keter' level anomalies. Often acting as security or participating in experiments to dangerous for the researchers and operators to engage in personally. Because of these factors there is plenty of opportunities for upwards mobility within departments or within the organization itself.

Specialty
Becoming an asset to the organization is the quickest way to help your odds of survival within the organization. Recruits who proves themselves to be capable and adept at useful tasks may see themselves promoted to a 'Class C' personnel ranking, gaining access and basic security benefits in the event of emergency situations.

Specialty ranges beyond your typical combat proficiency, a Wanderer can specialize in any school of academia or unique skill that the organization could find beneficial in their efforts. At this point higher ranking members of the Wanderers begin noticing and evaluating this new class of recruits seeking any those worthy of becoming field operatives.

Scrivening
However not all recruits who make it to Processing ever move past this phase. Many of those who aren't brutally killed by a strange anomaly end up as "Scriveners", who at best are forced to copy the precious books rarely found within the endless library that surround them or at worst are sent on pilgrimages and missions deep into the library, seeking wisdom.

Every new recruit must go out on pilgrimages at least once before advancing to becoming an Operative. But the endless labyrinth of hexagonal galleries filled with books of gibberish are enough to drive fragile minds mad even if you manage to avoid the strange otherworldly creatures who have made their own outposts and homes in the vast sea of books.
