Accessing Centre System...
Centre Projects
These are only a sample of the projects The Centre has undergone to improve the lives of humans around the world. Jarod would have everyone believe our motives are less than altruistic but he can not be believed.
Project Faith
Status: Inactive Project
File Number: 04-621
DOB: January 13, 1962
DOD: May 17, 1970
Faith was born January 13, 1962. She lived with her parents up until their deaths. She then became a ward of the state, and was diagnosed with leukemia. She was placed in a convalescent home where she was sent to die. Catherine Parker’s friends, Father Moore, heard about the little girl and told Catherine Parker about her. Catherine, in turn, told Mr. Parker that it could be their little girl in that nursing home.
Mr. Parker had the arrangements made for Catherine and him to adopt Faith. Faith was brought to the Centre where they used an experimental drug to try and save her.
On April 13, 1970, Catherine Parker “died” in the Centre’s main elevator leaving Faith motherless once again. In May of 1970, Miss Parker and Jarod went on a search for a dead body that had been brought to the Centre. Angelo helped them to find the “dead body”. Miss Parker and Jarod soon discovered that Faith wasn’t dead but sick. Jarod informed Miss Parker that Faith wouldn’t make it. Miss Parker gave Faith her mother’s rosary. Jarod, Miss Parker, and Angelo were with Faith when she died, still not knowing who she was to Miss Parker. Faith died on May 17, 1970.
In February of 1999, Miss Parker collapsed at the Centre due to internal bleeding from a ruptured ulcer. She had been sent the rosary that she’d given to Faith, by Jarod. She was rushed to the hospital where she was in critical condition for a while and nearly died. When Miss Parker awoke in the hospital she asked her father about Faith. He finally told her about Faith. Miss Parker swears that when her heartbeat stopped at the hospital she saw Faith.
Also, Jarod was in a plane crash at the same time and nearly died in the cold snowy wilderness. He too believes he saw Faith.

Project Gemini
Status: Active Project
1969
It has been our goal, since 1959, to successfully clone a human being. We hope to clone one of our Pretenders. We have set up facilities at the NuGenesis Family Group so that we might take and test samples of DNA. We have removed eggs from women for our research and are hoping that we can merge the DNA for one of our Pretenders with a fetus. We then place this into a surrogate mother where it will grow until it is born.
1970
It has become evident that there is a flaw in our calculations. All of the clones have been deformed and have died. We are assuming that are initial beliefs that project Gemini will work are correct but it appears that we are leaving out a crucial step in our tests. We are now trying to determine where this step comes in. However, Mr. Raines asks us to lie about the “accidents”.
Â
1971
Catherine Parker was asking about the Project before her death. She was lied to about what was going on and so we think that she was trying to stop the project. It seems that someone didn’t want her to interfere. There is no further improvement on the clones.
Â
1980
The cloning process has improved some, however, none of the subjects have lived. One of our Pretenders ran a sim on cloning and deemed it possible. We know that we are on the right track. All the surrogates from the project have died, more are being found.
1985
We have successfully cloned a Pretender. Mr. Raines will be working with him and training him. It seems that with the success of project Gemini, they have deemed the project “unimportant”. There are now two prodigies in the world.
Â
1998
There has been little contact and activity on Project Gemini until now. It seems that the Project has regained its place of importance. With the real Jarod on the run the mental abilities of the second are becoming a must. Major Charles has been snooping into the Project, but it is doubtful that he has discovered the truth.
Â
September 1999
Jarod has escaped from our custody and is once again free. We did extract a sufficient amount of DNA from him to further study this pretender, though we fear our research will be starting fresh without a subject to test.
For in-depth information on this project go to our mission file Donoterase.
Project Mirage
Status: Suspended Project
The Mirage Project was for the purpose of trying to create a pretender with the inner sense or “voices” that Catherine Parker possessed. Catherine Parker faked her death on April 13, 1970.
After her “death” she confided in Mr. Raines that she believed that Mr. Parker had impregnated her with Major Charles’, Jarod’s father, seed. She was correct and she was now carrying a child, however, she also told Raines that she believed her husband was going to kill her as soon as the new child was born.
She informed Jarod of the voices and of the brother that he and Miss Parker would share. She wished for Jarod to share this information with Miss Parker. However, Raines wiped Jarod’s short-term memory and so Jarod was unable to remember any of this until Sydney helped him in May 2000.
Catherine Parker did not live much longer after the birth of Ethan. The Centre ordered that Mr. Raines kill her after she gave birth. He complied.
Ethan was placed with foster parents who gave Raines total access to Ethan. Raines manipulated Ethan into doing terrorist acts with the incentive that Raines could stop the voices in Ethan’s head.
This project continued up until May of 2000, when Jarod’s little sister, Emily, discovered Ethan’s existence and in turn led Jarod to Ethan. Ethan fled with Jarod and the two are currently on the run. This project has been suspended until our subject is returned or a new candidate has been located.
For in-depth information on this project go to our DSA files: School Daze, Meltdown, Corn Man, and Inner Sense.
Project Pretender
Status: Active Project
AKA: Project Prodigy
Project Prodigy was discovered by Jarod when he came across the original 8 Red Files which are listed below. For in-depth information on this project go to our mission file Bloodlines. Additional Red Files from Raines’ continued and uncovered work can be found in our Red Files Section.
Subject: Angelo
Angelo was originally part of the Pretender program. He is tracked in a red file. Mr. Raines made references to the fact that Angelo’s “treatment” did not go as planned when someone questioned the treatment to be undergone by Davey Simpkins. Angelo is not a Pretender. He lost his personality when Raines gave him the electroshock treatments. He became an idiot savant. Angelo, however, does possess the ability to obtain other individual’s personalities.
STATUS: Detained
Subject: Dannie/Einnad
Another person tracked in a red file, Dannie or Einnad, as he called himself, was brought to the Centre in the 60’s with mild depression. Raines subjected him to mind-altering experiments in SL-27 until the sub-level burned in ’82. After that, Dannie was moved to a psychiatric hospital. He was no longer depressed, but exhibited psychosis and multiple personality disorder. His personality fractured into Dannie, a fragile child-like man, and Einnad, the more powerful and dangerous personality.
Mr. Raines took Dannie out of the psychiatric hospital, and moved him to a warehouse where he continued his experiments until Centre Operatives Miss Parker, Sydney, and Broots found him and returned him to the hospital, where he is under Sydney’s care.
STATUS: Hospitalized
Subject: Dara Andrews
There is not a great deal of information in Dara’s file. She was one of Catherine’s rescued children. Miss Parker enlists Broots’ help finding the children from her mother’s “rescued” files which sends her to find Dara. When she arrives at Dara’s adoptive mother’s home the woman recognizes her as Catherine’s daughter. Miss Parker learns Dara died from a sudden illness months prior. Dara’s mother had a bracelet Dara wore when Catherine brought her to her and on the bracelet was the engraving SL27.
STATUS: Deceased
Subject: Davey Simpkins
Davey Simpkins was the Centre’s latest attempt at creating a Pretender. Davey is a young boy who also underwent testing at NuGenesis, and was shown to possess the Pretender gene. Apparently, he is not a natural Pretender, because as soon as he was taken, Dr. Raines began drug and brain wave manipulation treatment.STATUS: Escaped
Subject: Jarod
Jarod is a natural pretender. He was kidnapped from his family at the age of three. He was chosen because of tests taken at NuGenesis when he was a child, which revealed that he had the pretender gene. His care was taken over by Dr. Sydney Green, upon Jarod’s arrival at the Centre. His life consisted of plenty of intellectual stimulation, including exposure to thousands of simulations in which he was told to explain what he saw, what the people were feeling, and what happened.STATUS: Escaped
Subject: Kyle
Kyle is the brother of Jarod, and also groomed to be a pretender. His care, however, was taken over by Dr. William Raines who stripped him of his morals and made him into a sociopath. Kyle was eventually put into a maximum-security prison where he managed to escape. Jarod and he did find each other. Centre Operative Mr. Lyle killed Kyle in May of ’98.
STATUS: Deceased
Subject: Miss Parker
Miss Parker is the daughter of Mr. Parker and Catherine Parker and works for the Centre. She is the twin to Mr. Lyle. Miss Parker was tasked with catching Jarod after his escape but has failed at every turn. Miss Parker seems to possess the ability Catherine Parker possess which has been named “Inner Sense.”
Recent findings indicate that Mr. Parker is not Miss Parker’s biological father but rather Abel Parker. Abel Parker is better known as Dr. William Raines.
STATUS: Operative
Subject: Mr. Lyle
Lyle was born to Mr. Parker and Catherine Parker along with his twin Miss Parker. He was taken at birth by Dr. William Raines and given to the Bowman family becoming Robert Bowman. Lyle is suspected of killing his best friend in high school and framing his adopted father (Lyle Bowman). Lyle is also a suspect in the slaying of his mail order bride and other. It is suspected Lyle is a cannibal.
Lyle has been successful in capturing Jarod twice though both times he’s let Jarod slip through his fingers. Recent findings indicate that Mr. Parker is not Mr. Lyle’s biological father but rather Abel Parker. Abel Parker is better known as Dr. William Raines.
STATUS: Operative
Project Retrieval
Status: Active Project
Project Retrieval focus’s on Jarod. He is classified as a pretender and can become anything he wants to be. He believes that because his research while living at the Centre, was used for unorthodox purposes that he owes a debt to society.
He is looking for his family. Last time we had a lead on him he had found his father; his brother, Kyle, who operative Mr. Lyle killed; his sister, Emily; his clone; and his newly found brother Ethan, who is also Miss Parker’s brother. Jarod is still currently in search of his mother, Margaret.
In 1996, Jarod escaped the Centre and took DSA’s that span his stay with The Centre. These DSA’s can prove the Centre’s involvement in many historical events, good and bad. We must retrieve Jarod and those DSA’s at all cost.
In May of 1999, Jarod was captured by Brigitte, but escaped by September of 1999.
Jarod has been spotted in locations all over the world but to date no sweeper has been able to catch him. Jarod was involved in the uncovering of ancient scrolls in December of 2001.
Project Rumor
Status: Completed
File Number: 58259
The Rumor Project was a Centre Operative who answered to a higher person in the Centre. “Rumor” was the code name for this person and is believed to be involved with the death of Big Mutumbo, the set up of Mr. Parker for Big Mutumbo’s murder and the murder of Thomas Michael Gates.
Jarod left Miss Parker a card that said “Thomas Gates Restoration – Where everything old is new again. – (302) 555-0110” and on the other side it says “RUMOR 58259”. Sydney realized that RUMOR would be the operative on the case and the numbers… could be for a Centre Audio Phone Tap File. Broots acquire the Phone Tap File for Miss Parker and plays it:
Thomas: “Yeah, Parker and I are going away for the week end, so we’ll talk when I get back.”
Jarod: “Okay buddy. I’ll see you again soon.”
Thomas: “You take care Jarod.”
Miss Parker is stunned to learn that Thomas is a friend of Jarod’s. Miss Parker returns home to find Brigitte and her father. When asked about RUMOR 58259, her father plays dumb while Brigitte tells her what Sydney told her.
Back at the Centre, Broots informs Miss Parker that there is a Z3 File that will tell her the identity of Rumor. When Miss Parker returns home she finds the Z3 File Broots had mentioned. Inside Miss Parker learns who Rumor is and goes to confronted Brigitte; who she finds in labor and dying. Miss Parker asks Brigitte if she killed Thomas and Brigitte confesses. She also informs Miss Parker that the order came from inside The Centre and she never knew who sent her the order. Brigitte dies just before Cox and her father show up. Mr. Parker informs Miss Parker that Rumor tried to set him up for the death of Big Mutumbo when Rumor is actually the assassin.
Project Silence
Status: Active Project
Project Silence was instituted due to Jason and Claire Nash discovery of Centre involvement in the Neptune Project that they were working on for NASA. They discovered our intentions and while we were in no immediate danger we knew that the trail would lead back to the Centre. The Nash’s have a daughter named Courtney and while we assumed she would be leverage Jarod had other plans and sent them away. We have been unable to locate the Nashes. We strived to silence them before they could testify to what they had discovered, however, Jarod escaped from the Centre and hindered our attempts.
Despite Jarod’s attempts to thwart us, we are still working on locating the Nash’s.

The Centre
Blue Cove, Delaware
Accessing this system without proper clearance from the Triumvirate or a high level Centre official will result in immediate action and a T-Board review and may result in time spent on SL25 or in Renewal wing for re-education.
