(Everyone knows the story about Santa Claus, right? Big fat man with presents comin’ down the chimney, givin’ out presents? ‘Course they do. That’s all their minds can handle. The reality, unfortunately, is much darker. By attending this information session, you’re already being elevated to Sigma-Eta-3 level security clearance. So enter the room, agent, and let’s face some unpleasant realities. The entity known as “Santa Claus” is an posthuman of unknown origin. We know he was born in Turkey in around the 3rd century AD, and was a bishop in the city of Myra. He is known to have gone on a pilgrimage to Egypt as a teenager, and that’s when he encountered the entity. Somehow they merged, and since then, he’s been unkillable. He’s known to have localized mind control and reality alteration abilities, and what he wants with children, we don’t know, but we know he vanishes them and erases their existence. We believe the advertising campaign back in the 20s is some kind of PR thing he organized that makes it easier for him, which is why we’ve been trying the “Happy Holidays” operation for the last twentyish years. Last year, we lost fourteen agents across he globe. This year, it’s your turn. We’ve identified specific children who match his preferences. You’ve each got a target to protect, so make sure to read those dossiers and memorize your kids. If you fail, you might be the only one who remembers they were ever there at all. Now, let’s get a move on. It’s the night before Christmas, and not a creature’s peeping. We want to keep it that way.
