==== Sidebar: Hunter the Vigil ====
As mentioned in Chapter Five, The Marduk Society is a Hunter Conspiracy. The members of the Society detailed below are written to be easily converted to the Hunter template if the Storyteller desires, simply add the additional details listed under "Hunter Traits". Nothing else is needed, the free specialty and Contact provided by Professional Training are already included. 

You may be thinking, if you include one Hunter Conspiracy why not others? There is some merit to this idea as one of Leviathan's themes is that Leviathan's are living in another Tribe's world but be careful not to overdo things. This game is at heart about Leviathans not Hunters and too many groups could steal the spotlight. If you wish to include one or two here are some suggestions as to where they might fit into the Border Cities: The Aegis Kai Doru and Loyalists of Thule are both interested in relics and may be drawn by the rich supplies of heirlooms, their relationship with Marduk could range from academic rivalry to outright violence. The Ascending Ones could easily fit control a cut of the drugs trade moving across the borders. Both San Diego and Tijuana are predominantly Catholic so a Malleus Maleficarum presence might be justified, the Long Night not so much. If anyone aside from the Marduk Society is able to profit from using Leviathan's as raw materials it's the Cherion Group who may have come following the Tribe. Finally a Leviathan's tendency to make waves in whatever circle they move in means that any with political aspirations may come to the attention of the Barrett Commission.

==Rosie Watson==

Rosie Watson is a young Marduk agent. Coming from a well off family of Cuban immigrants to the United States Rosie spent her gap year travelling the world on trips organised by a Marduk front (usually used to transport equipment). Rosie's potential was noticed and she accepted an offer to join an archaeological front and later the Marduk Society itself. Tijuana is her first solo job, a deep cover operation investigating possible Leviathan influence in <Aunt Remona's barrio> under the name of Maria Lopez. A task which due to faulty intelligence she is deeply unqualified for.

==Michael Lay==

Michael is a young and slightly overweight man, his long hair in a permanent ponytail. Mike had two goals in life: He wanted to be rich and he didn't want to have to work for it. Online crime seemed like the perfect job and would have been if he didn't brag about his career in public. Despite his indiscretion his computer skills impressed the detectives, one had a quite word to Marduk and Michael vanished from custody. After a few years of impressive but entirely unambitious service Michael was kicked upstairs to run Omisoft Ltd and provide support to field agents in the Border Cities – an enviable position among Conspirators as among other logistical duties he is officially responsible for removing Leviathan corpses. The consensus is that Michael is a lazy and barely competent manager but the Conspirators are happy he's keeping quiet until needed and Michael is happy to have a fat paycheck for minimal work.

==Edward Arndt==

Edward is a man approaching retirement but his love of archaeology keeps him in the field in his trademark leather patched coat and straw boater hat. He has little personal knowledge, or interest, in the supernatural but is acquainted with the Marduk Society through their funding for archaeology, this time they're trying to uncover the source of the massive Wake over the Border Cities and Edward is one of several academics who have accepted sponsorship to conduct digs. Unknown to him several of the artefacts he's uncovered are choice Heirlooms.
