Black Box Society

The Black Box Society are an independent faction featured in Mobile Suit Gundam Agua. Formed long before the creation of the other powers active in the Earth sphere, they act to protect the Black Box from the world at large.

Overview
The Black Box Society acts as the keepers and protectors of the Black Box, a massive data server containing a vast catalog of human history collected since humanity's first appearance on Earth to the modern age of Vivens Aetus. Fearing the information kept inside would be used to instigate an apocalyptic war, the Society was formed to hide away the box and only allow those deemed important enough to even glimpse at its contents.

Those tasked with guarding the box vow to call off any relation to the outside world in the name of remaining unbiased and neutral when it comes to other parties and their desired use of the Black Box. Many of those who physically gatekeep the box live lives bound to the asteroid station where the Box is housed and are not allowed to interact with outsiders beyond assisting them across the station. There is, however, a subset of these personnel who are allowed to leave the asteroid in order to gather more information on ancient human history, in an effort to keep the information contained and to expand the Black Box's library of information.

In secret, however, the Black Box Society acts as an information broker relay to all factions active across the recovering Earth sphere, most noticeably favoring Castor Abandon and their efforts against Aliva Ciba.
