Temple Strike Force
The Strike Force is one of the most elite military groups in the world, and they have to be in order to contend with supernatural threats without supernatural powers of their own.
The Strike Force prefers ambushes and sniping to open conflict, they are almost always looking to take the high ground and hold their shots for the right opportunity to make the biggest impact, usually targeting officers first. They most often deploy in modern military camouflage. When sniping isn't a viable option they prefer to set ambushes with land mines or razor wire.

The Geeks
Temple Intelligence
The eyes, ears and brain of the Temple. Consisting largely of ex-intelligence agents and military intelligence officers, Temple intelligence agents are the reason the Temple knows so much and always has the latest in weaponry and anti-supernatural technology. Temple Intelligence tend to deploy in slightly modified civilian garb and provide support, scouting, and espionage during times of conflict. They particularly like to sneak in to place remote detonated explosives on key
enemy assets, and detonate them right when the enemy most wanted to use them. They have a pronounced rivalry with the Hand's Shadows.

The Freaks
Temple Demolishers
If the strike team is the Temple's surgical sledgehammer, the demolishers are their wrecking ball. An almost experimental group containing most of the Temple's supernaturals as well as those wielding experimental weaponry. The demolishers are deployed in situations where bystander casualties or stealth are not a concern. Where they go they'll leave only rubble behind.
The Demolishers usually deploy with the heaviest weaponry and in stripped down military gear, with men often going topless. They aren't usually that well-armored and carry such heavy weaponry as to render their mobility limited. In a direct firefire they rarely lose, but tend to perform poorly in confined areas.

The Temple
This group is made of mostly non supernaturals, they believe that magic and supernatural forces are inherently damaging and should be removed entirely from the world. Most of their members are essentially supernatural hunters or soldiers, religiosity is also very common. Some of their members are extremely prejudiced, going so far as to hate all supernaturals, believing they are evil abominations who must all be destroyed. Some however are very compassionate, believing that being supernatural is not that person's fault, they deserve all the respect and kindness of anyone else, but still thinking that the world would be better served if supernaturals and their influence could be grandfathered out. Supernaturals do sometimes find themselves in the temple, some are self loathing, others simply believe that despite what they themselves are it's true that by and large the supernatural is damaging. These members are accepted grudgingly but never ascend into the ranks of the higher command structure. While the members of the Temple are often cast as closed minded or bigots in truth there is a good deal of evidence that the supernatural by its nature is harmful, most supernaturals have a dark side and power is always corrupting, the Gate itself is a constant apocalyptic threat. The Temple's main interest in Haven is to close the Gate. The Temple is the strongest faction in sheer military power, mostly due to their number of combatants. All members of the Temple are sent on a six week combat training course regardless of their role within the organization. Currently the Temple is invested into fusion and pilotless flight research. The Temple's elite warriors are known as Cleaners.
