Group History

Zingo Command Corporate Link"


The I.R.A.T.E. Blackout Team is a Spec Ops Unit affiliated with the covert umbrella group called Zingo Command. Zingo Command is private security conglomerate. It is contracted to provide an array of security and intelligence services for governmental, scientific and industrial clients who wish to monitor and influence the events taking place in Malton after the level 3 outbreak of the Necrotech viral incident. I.R.A.T.E. is Zingo Command's eyes and ears on the ground. Our unit's origional mission was recon, intelligence gathering and zed suppression in the Malton Theater of Operations. Elements of our Recon team were operating out of an area called Rolt Heights. This suburb was thought to be friendly, however, a local survivor group called the Rolt Heights Vigilante Patrol initiated an unprovoked attack on our team leader Skyzingo, killing him in their safe house and disrupting our mission. The RHVP's aggressive and unwarranted action against our interests, means that they are now considered a hostile and dangerous group. The I.R.A.T.E. Blackout team has been given the authorization to commence offensive military operations against the RHVP until further notice. (Update: Current Status: Cease fire).

December 2007. The Northern Regiment initiated hostilites against I.R.A.T.E, when their leader Blanemcc attacked and killed team member Skymike. Zingo Command has authorized sustained retaliatory operations against The Northern Regiment via Executive Order 127-KTA. All Northern Regiment members are now high priority tragets of the I.R.A.T.E. Black Out Team. (Update: Current Status: TNR has ceased operations).
