The Ballyraven Cryptid Wildlife Protection Agency is an organization dedicated to studying cryptids, paranormal and supernatural organisms, strange phenomena, history - and nature in general! From folklore, scary stories, and sighting reports, to interviews, scientific studies, field trips, and more–the BCWPA explores the myths and real lives of our world’s rarest creatures, visitors, places, and happenings.
Agent Roman researches a variety of cryptids (usually of the atmospheric category) and gives voice to a few different Ballyravens. Agent Roman not only helps with the modern archival process, but provides the BCwPA with field illustrations.
The Ballyraven isn't so much a name as it is a title. Like 'President', in modern day BCwPA, 'Ballyraven' (or "T/the Ballyraven") is a title for the organization's leader. Keeping with fae tradition, the Ballyraven takes a vow of name secrecy, giving up their human name. The Ballyraven researches and gives voice to the most prolific Ballyraven (Ballyraven #1, "Bally"), who was responsible for much of the old agency's digitization and archival, as well as translating for and transferring their information to a human audience.

A member of the BCwPA, Agent Leutwyler studies the journals and tapes of Ballyraven #47, "Bug," a frog-centric agent of the original organization. Agent Leutwyler has followed up on Bug's many Ohio cases, discovering several are complete hoaxes, with no basis in folklore or witness sighting - bad Bug!
Agent Puckett is a BCwPA who organizes community game nights and researches fae, in addition to history. He provides a voice to historical reenactments and context segments for the modern BCwPA archive.
