Дано - Руководство по Технократии, страница 28. Тайная группировка "Cassandra Complex". Как лучше перевести? У меня пока, кроме "Комплекс Кассандры" ничего нет.
"The Cassandra Complex"
Actually, this consortium of Statisticians, Ivory Tower agents and PDC ops goes by the awkward moniker "the Strategic Prognostications and Data Dispersal Unit (SPDDU)." For obvious reasons, most Technocrats who discuss this legendary covert intelligence clique call it "the Cassandra Complex" or "the angels." Scholars with a sense of
history know it as the remnants of the House of Selene, a sect
of the old Celestial Masters. (See Mage: The Sorcerers
Crusade, pages 148-149.) Then, as now, the "Cassandras" performed arcane calculations and observations in an effort to foresee crises. In the modern age, their descendants uncover hidden data and calculate future events, then forward their findings to agents who might benefit from them.
Unlike the militant ops of Invictus and Avalon, these hidden masters simply collect information, find parties that might be able to put it to good use and drop it off in untraceable packages. People who know about the hidden agenda of the Syndicate's SPD wonder if the Cassandras discovered the Division's corruption. Regardless, these covert ops maintain a loose network of field agents, mechanical
spies and un-Enlightened errand boys. Many a "good Technocrat" has received a helpful tip from these reclusive prophets... or has received aid from an unknown (but well-informed) benefactor.
