Hound Dog

Hound Dog (猟犬部隊(ハウンドドッグ)) is an elite |black operations unit that takes orders from Aleister Crowley himself, under the command of Kihara Amata. Unlike the Anti-Skill, Hound Dogs covertly perform operations that are considered against regular military conduct and even laws.

Hound Dogs name can be attributed to their their ability to track down any target; using their Scent Sensor technology, which is said to be superior to that of a trained police dog, henceforth their name.

Duties
Under Kihara, the Hound Dogs where only shown to follow the exact orders of Academy City General Chairman Aleister Crowley. Unlike the Anti-Skill, the Hound Dogs are not bound any sort of protocol or laws, as they are a covert paramilitary unit, they do their mission regardless of any damages and consequences that they incur.

Because of their covert nature, the secrecy of their operations are highly guarded, and as such the Hound Dogs will eliminate any potential threats – such as witnesses or bystanders – that get in the way of their mission. A part of their covert nature is to cover their own existence, as such the Hound Dogs themselves have to remove their own presence in many situations, such as destroying evidence, retrieving bodies of comrades, and general clean up of anything that would indicate their presence.

Failure to achieve an objective usually ends with Kihara Amata punishing members severely. A Hound Dog member who interferes with operations or betrays the organization are also punished, usually through death.

Organization
The are only seen to move the will of Kihara Amata, who answers to Aleister Crowley, and generally seem to fear him as well. People who became members of Hound Dog are ordinary people (such as former Anti-Skill) from all walks of life, however, become entrenched in the ways of the dark side of Academy City; as such, Hound Dogs are referred to as scum and garbage, and are apparently devoid of any human rights and are replaceable during missions. Because of their similar fates however, there is a certain camaraderie between the members of Hound Dog.

Most of the time, Kihara Amata utilize all Hound Dogs in a single objective during a mission. However, when there are several tasks that are required to be done, then the Hound Dogs group themselves into small squads with a squad leader.

Because of their covert nature, members of Hound Dog use Western names to hide their true identities.
