Ok, but such a scenario can't exist as part of a Void. Such an "Agency" couldn't be born out of the blue.

So, I tryed to expand the idea and give it some historical mean. Very well.

In that case, I could see groups of hunters existing ever since the dawn of civilization (cave men didnt have the numbers or organization for it). Monsters are a plague, so its not to hard to imagine that brave men and women would rise to fight their insidious presence.

So.... What's the most likely place to the birth of the first hunters?

A few options, amongst the oldest civilizations: Egypt, Summeria, Babylon, China.

The Gods of Summeria and Babilon are... Weird, to say the last. How about if... Well, lets think of those civilizations as Monster Driven. Yep, the vampires and demons took them over. And thats also one of the reasons they fell.

In China... China is curious. In real world, they have an elaborate bureoucracy of supernaturals in their myths of the "Celestial Bureoucracy". So, how about thinking on China as a place that managed a curious form of coexistence? I like the idea. Chinese monsters are "civilized" monsters. They are the "Devil you know".

Now, in Egypt... Ok, that one is good for my purposes. Their Gods value the life in community, they value individuals with good deeds - thats why Anubis weight the hearts of the dead, and if it is heavier than a plume, the person is doomed. That's a metaphor - the weight of the heart is a measure of selfishness, violence, etc.

So... In Egypt, the "Soldiers of Ra" were born... With the mission of "hunting down the spawn of Set". Set is an evil God... So, it would only be natural for them to see the monsters of the night as agents of Set. And, since Set is the natural enemy of Egypt... It makes sense.

Secret is, of course, their biggest weapon. And, since those guys have been commited to the hunt for thousands of years, they've learned A LOT in this time.

With a clear purpose and a fanatical zealoutry, they've managed to keep going throughout the ages. And learned how to keep away from the secular rulers of the civilization; working alongside the paraohs showed them that its best to pull the strings from the shadows.

From there, its only a matter of expansion. Secret moves to infiltrate Greece, Rome, Persia, even India.

Than Constantinople, the muslim lands... Perhaps the Templars were their biggest branch on medieval Europe.

Hell, why not making a funny fictional assumption that Hernan Cortez was one of them? Disgusted to see the monsters rulling the Aztecs...

In modern times (probably during Victorian Age), with a more global world, some of those groups enlisted the others - its unlikely that there would be a global conspiracy since the times of Rome. But, during the Industrial Age, some groups banded toghether, and started to covertly assume the leadership of others across the world.

This also opens room for "rogue agencies", minor groups that stayed beyond the Agency's radar and keep on playing independently. Those can be valuable assets or a huge problem to the Agency - perhaps, as a safety measure, the policy is " infiltrate and destroy" or even "kill on sight" (you never know if one of those can be corrupted or dominated by the monsters)
