Since 1849, Kingsman Tailors have clothed the world's most powerful individuals. In 1919, a great number of them had lost their heirs to World War I. That meant a lot of money going uninherited. And a lot of powerful men with the desire to preserve peace and protect life. Our founders realized that they could channel that wealth and influence for the greater good. And so began our adventure. An independent international intelligence agency operating at the highest level of discretion. Without the politics and bureaucracy that undermine the intelligence of government-run spy organisations. A suit is the modern gentleman's armour. And the Kingsman agents are the new knights. Last I left you, I was injured and being sent on a recon mission for a week. It was a successful mission where much of the time was spent poolside drinking drinks out of pineapples. I'll have to thank Merlin somehow. Coming back was less fun as it was to a mess of work left undone. Things need to change. I am prepared to adapt and I shall transform. It is time to become a Kingsman. As my goals haven't changed much from last challenge, I shall refresh your memory and add a few edits as well: There are multiple parts to becoming a spy: etiquette, work ethic, intelligence gathering, and physical ability. Manners Maketh Man: It is time to start putting my training to work. I got some time in last week at a Gala but need to up my networking game. (2 networking/social events for the challenge) Take the Initiative: Some missions will require work that is... unsavory and comes with lots of paperwork. Paperwork is dull but necessary. Just because it isn't fun and glamorous doesn't mean you don't have to do it. Focus on getting work accomplished, even if it isn't enjoyable. Moving forward can only happen if you have the right skills to back it up. Intelligence Gathering: Study up - Language and LSAT. (5 days a week) Physical Ability: Hand to hand, running from explosions, keeping your head when in pain. All three (and more) are skills needed to become a Kingsman agent. These can be learned through proper training and focus, but all require a level of physical ability beyond the norm. Build the body and the skills will develop. (5 days a week) Let the training continue.
