   * **Limited Authority:** Unlike authoritarian secret police forces of the past, the FBIS does not have unchecked power and requires approval from the Federal Council for any actions classified as “extreme interventions.”
+===== Jurisdiction & Responsibilities =====
+While the Federal Sheriff and Local Sheriffs handle public law enforcement, the FBIS operates in more sensitive areas, focusing on preventive security measures.
+==== Primary Responsibilities of the FBIS: ====
+**Surveillance & Intelligence Gathering**
+  * Monitoring high-risk individuals suspected of political destabilization, espionage, or organized black market activity.
+  * Tracking movements of known smugglers, saboteurs, and arms dealers in Firetown and other settlements.
+  * Coordinating with GAIA for pattern recognition in illegal activity networks.
+**Political Stability & Crisis Prevention**
+  * Investigating attempts to undermine the Federal Confederation through subversive propaganda or inciting unrest.
+  * Ensuring that Local Sheriffs uphold federal law and do not engage in corrupt practices or politically motivated enforcement.
+  * Providing intelligence to the Federal Council on potential political or economic destabilization factors.
+**Black Market Countermeasures**
+  * Infiltrating illegal trade networks that bypass resource restrictions under the Peace Treaty.
+  * Tracking down and dismantling smuggling rings moving weapons, drugs, or stolen technology.
+  * Monitoring Individualist-controlled areas in Firetown, where resistance to federal regulation is strongest.
+**Internal Threat Response**
+  * Investigating suspected sabotage, espionage, or high-level corruption within the Federal Confederation.
+  * Overseeing background checks on individuals assigned to critical infrastructure or sensitive government roles.
+  * Conducting operations against radical factions threatening the Confederation’s security.
+===== FBIS Agents & Selection Process =====
+Unlike traditional law enforcement officers, FBIS agents are not freely recruited. Instead, they are assigned by GAIA, based on psychological profiling, skill assessment, and behavioral analysis.
+**Agent Selection Criteria:**
+  * Strong analytical and deductive reasoning skills.
+  * High emotional resilience and ability to work under pressure.
+  * Loyalty to the principles of the Federal Confederation and the Peace Treaty.
+  * Experience in law enforcement, cyber analysis, or counterintelligence (preferred but not required).
+  * Since agents are selected based on aptitude rather than personal ambition, the FBIS remains a professional, duty-driven organization, free from self-interested political maneuvering.
