== Summary ==
The Occult Security and Investigation Commission works hard to ensure supernatural threats that are too big for local law enforcement to handle are taken care of.<ref name=":1" /> The OSIC keeps files on many notable persons,<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Holliday|number=1|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=I've read your file, sheriff. You seem competent.|hero_quote2=Holliday|quote2=I have a file?|hero_quote3=Haze|quote3=We're the OSIC. Of course there's a file.}}</ref> and once a threat to national security has been identified, a Sandman is sent to neutralize the threat.<ref name=":2">{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Graves|number=3|hero_quote1=Graves|quote1=Surprised you're not trying to take the hand.|hero_quote2=Haze|quote2=Curators care about things, Sandmen care about people. So until you become a threat to national security you're not my problem.}}</ref>

The OSIC has warned [[New York]] citizens to stay indoors for the duration of the [[Maelstrom]].<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Newscaster|file=newscaster_headline_17.mp3|transcription=The OSIC has issued a warning to the city of New York recommending that citizens stay indoors for the duration of the celestial event.}}</ref> {{HeroIcon|Haze}} has been sent to fight in the [[Maelstrom|ritual]] by the OSIC, although the details of her mission are currently unknown.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Haze}}'s in-game [[Haze/Quotes#Select|voice line]] (Select): ''"I'm here on OSIC business."''</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=Haze}}'s in-game [[Haze/Quotes#Pre-Game|voice line]] (Pre-Game Ping): ''"This assignment keeps getting weirder."''</ref>

The OSIC wants {{PageRef|name=Calico}} and {{PageRef|name=Seven}} dead.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Calico|number=1|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=I'm going to kill you before the day is out, so making small talk seems a little pointless.}}</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=Haze}}'s in-game [[Haze/Quotes#Enemies|voice line]] (Killed Seven): ''"You hid yourself from me for the last time."''</ref> They seem to know that Seven is in New York, as Seven is hiding from them in New York's subway tunnels.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Seven|hero2=Mo & Krill|number=2}}</ref> The OSIC is also keeping an eye on {{PageRef|name=Wraith}} and {{PageRef|name=Yamato}},<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Wraith|number=1|hero_quote1=Wraith|quote1=You're not here for me, right?|hero_quote2=Haze|quote2=The OSIC isn't concerned with your little casino, Wraith.}}</ref><ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Yamato|number=2|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=We're going to win today, Yamato, and when we do, you'll use the Patrons to make the Seventh Moon strong. But know this: we're watching you.|hero_quote2=Yamato|quote2=[Scoffs], I don't care.|hero_quote3=Haze|quote3=If you step out of line, you will.}}</ref> although they haven't been considered worth allocating resources to take out yet. Haze mentions that if the [[Seventh Moon]] becomes a cartel, then her superiors would likely send her to kill Yamato.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Yamato|hero2=Haze|number=3|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=Right now, your operation is small enough that the OSIC wouldn't waste allocating resources on you. (...) Well, if it gets big enough, it stops being a gang and starts being a cartel... That's usually when my superiors start thinking about having me kill you in your sleep.}}</ref> The OSIC doesn't seem to be after {{PageRef|name=Drifter}}.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Drifter|hero2=Haze|number=1|hero_quote1=Drifter|quote1=OSIC finally coming for me?|hero_quote2=Haze|quote2=No, we're using you. If we were coming for you, you'd already be dead.}}</ref>

The OSIC is implied to be worried about creatures of [[The Deep]].<ref>{{PageRef|name=Haze}}'s in-game [[Haze/Quotes#Enemies|voice line]] (killed Viscous): ''"To think the OSIC was worried about your kind."''</ref> They seem to know about the [[The Deep|Adversary]] and are aware of how dangerous it is.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Viscous|hero2=Haze|number=3|hero_quote1=Viscous|quote1=Thanks for your help, Haze. Not everyone takes the problems of the Deep seriously.|hero_quote2=Haze|quote2=We don't live in a vacuum. If there's a problem in the Deep, it's only a matter of time before it's a problem on land.}}</ref> Once the ritual is over, Haze wants {{PageRef|name=Viscous}} to tell her everything about the Adversary so the OSIC can prepare in case any more creatures like it come through The Deep's [[Astral Gates|Astral Gate]].<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Viscous|hero2=Haze|number=1|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=Viscous, after the ritual, I need you to tell me about the Adversary.|hero_quote2=Viscous|quote2=But after the ritual, the Adversary will be gone!|hero_quote3=Haze|quote3=Yes, but there may be others, and the OSIC needs to be prepared.}}</ref>

The OSIC's main office is not local to New York. Instead, they've set up a temporary base of operations in the area, although Haze believes that the OSIC will open a permanent office after the ritual due to all the activity going on in the area.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=McGInnis|number=1|hero_quote1=McGinnis|quote1=After the ritual, you think the OSIC is gonna pack up shop?|hero_quote2=Haze|quote2=No. I think they'll open a permanent office. With all the activity going on, I'm shocked they haven't sooner.}}</ref>

Haze acknowledges that the OSIC is flawed and that they don't have enough people "who care what doors are getting kicked down".<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Vindicta|number=2|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=I'm not a zealot. The OSIC isn't perfect and neither is the world.

We don't have enough guys who care what doors are getting kicked down.}}</ref> That said, she is still loyal to her job and believes that the ends justify the means.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Haze}}'s in-game [[Haze/Quotes#Select|voice line]] (Select): ''"I dedicated my life to the OSIC. I won't fail them."''</ref> Haze works for the OSIC because she "loves her country".<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Vindicta|number=2|hero_quote1=Vindicta|quote1=How can you work for them?|hero_quote2=Haze|quote2=I love my country.}}</ref>

{{HeroIcon|Lady Geist}} is worried she will be sent to an OSIC oubliette if she caters to [[Oathkeeper]]'s demands.<ref>[[The Binding of Oathkeeper|''The Binding of Oathkeeper'']] - [[The Binding of Oathkeeper/Transcription#3b - Hunger Strike|Chapter 3B]] - {{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}: ''"What good is eternal life if I spend it in an OSIC oubliette? And we both know that's exactly where I would end up if I gave in to your every whim."''</ref> Haze warns her that the OSIC will have to intervene if "the Oathkeeper issue isn't resolved".<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Lady Geist|number=1|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=The Oathkeeper issue needs to be resolved, Lady Geist.|hero_quote2=Lady Geist|quote2=It will be.|hero_quote3=Haze|quote3=Good. If it's not, the OSIC will have to intervene.}}</ref>

The OSIC is interested in {{HeroIcon|Kelvin}}'s condition as a revenant.<ref name=":0">{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Kelvin|number=2}}</ref> They also show some interest in {{PageRef|name=Celeste}} being a unicorn.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Haze}}'s in-game [[Haze/Quotes#Enemies|voice line]] (killed Celeste): ''"The OSIC is gonna want an autopsy."''</ref>

The OSIC has released a report about hexes.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Newscaster|file=newscaster_headline_85.mp3|transcription=Expecting parents have long kept the names of their babies secret. But now, a new OSIC hex report has some families questioning about ever revealing their children's true name. Readers weigh in with their thoughts in today's New York Oracle.}}</ref>

The OSIC limits expeditions to the North Pole.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Newscaster|file=newscaster_seasonal_headline_08.mp3|transcription=The OSIC has issued a statement reminding citizens that North Pole expeditions are illegal without a permit.}}</ref>
