Story + Background |
It is the year 2003
In response to the growing use of sophisticated digital encryption to conceal potential threats to the
national security of the United States, the NSA (National Security Agency) has ushered forth a new dawn of
intelligence-gathering techniques. This top-secret initiative is dubbed Third Echelon. Denied to exist by
the U.S. government, Third Echelon deploys elite intelligence-gathering units consisting of a lone field
operative supported by a remote team. Like a sliver of glass, a Splinter Cell is small, sharp, and nearly
invisible. |
March 10, 2004
The CIA contacted NSA officials regarding the loss of contact with Agent Alison Madison, a CIA operative
monitoring widespread communication shortages plaguing the former Soviet Republic of Georgia.
A second operative, Agent Blaustein, was inserted into the Georgian capital T'bilisi to locate Agent
Madison, only to drop from contact seven days later. Fearing for the lives of American agents compromised
at the hands of a suspected terrorist effort, Third Echelon has activated operative Sam Fisher to locate
the missing agents and evaluate the situation. |
You are Sam Fisher
You must leave no trace on the physical or political map. Remember: Although killing may compromise secrecy,
the choice between leaving a witness or a corpse is no choice at all. You are a Splinter Cell. |
