Briefing
On December 19th, 2017, at approximately 1:54PM UTC, a briefing email was sent out to all Black Watchmen agents. This email contained a classified document from site 7361, which proves that Mr. Whitechapel is behind the mysterious occurrences in New England. The email also contained the following instructions:
- Take your cell phone and go to map.blackwatchmen.com
- Record yourself reading the following incantation:
A custodia matutina usque ad noctem
- The Situation Room will broadcast a symbol in realtime, draw it on your cellphone to submit your voice recording.
It is believed that once this chanting reaches critical mass, this intercepted broadcast will be understandable.
After agents received the briefing, the Black Watchmen Map along with the in game map began to fill up with symbols indicating an agent in that area had recorded and submitted their chant. Soon after these symbols appeared, audio cues of agents chanting began to play, each audio cue being repeated after ending.
As of now, this is all that is known. This page will continue to be updated as more of the event plays out.
