General description

Description: We, the K.U.E.R.T. are a group of urban explorers of karakura. We list information about the places we explore, groups we meet and stories of other citizens. We try to keep the least amount of data censored. Bear in mind that some info must be kept secret for various reasons.

History

The beginning (27/12/2022)

Daniel Minaya was walking through the streers of Karakura, after finding an strange and abandoned place he has the idea of documenting this place. Daniel Minaya calls this new project "KUERT". The purpose of it is to document the places of Karakura.

The first document published by KUERT was POI-001 and was posted on 27/12/202. The POI-001 is written on google documents and shared through his onrain. He also creates the KUERT account of Onrain.

The descent (30/01/2023- 20/03/2023)

One of the defining advancemnts of KUERT during this time was the the first KUERT website. Documents were now accessible through one centralised website, this significantly improved the experience of navigating through the data.

The other important events are first descents into sewers. It was in the sewage system where most of the lost and anomalous places could be found, however the underground was said to be dangerous and the explorations were very superficial to avoid dangers. After days of research and work, the descents was provent to be fruitful and the documents on POI-002 and POI-003 were published.

Daniel Minaya kept himself away from documenting on GOI's as he didn't know about the underworld inner workings or secrets, this was the reason why the POI list is so long but GOI list didn't grow during half a year.

The first contacts (20/03/2023-30/5/2023)

Up until now KUERT had been an non-interacting group due to it's isolation policy. Essentially, this meant that KUERT avoided contacts with groups systematically. During mid of March, several groups showed interest in exploring the sewers and contacted KUERT with the proposal of exchanging information and even collaborating at explorations. Those interactions made Daniel reconsider the isolation policy. This lead to the removal of the isolation policy in (24/04/2023), and collaborations started.

Following this change, KUERT started the first recruitment in (26/03/2023). In the end the new ambition for a big team to work along failed and no team explorations were ever carried out.

The last and definitive page for KUERT is published in (09/04/2023). However the engine for the site was more private than google and it let KUERT have the privacy they needed for some documents.

In the subject of exploration, Daniel Minaya starts having a high command on moving through sewers, not loosing the sense of direction and keeping and eye out on possible dangers. KUERT has explored by now the 75% of important locations of the sewers.

In Zaragoza (Spain), KUERT collaborators started the foundation of the ZUERT.

Internationalization and professionality (30/5/2023-1/9/2023)

This era starts with a significant decrease in content and document publishing.The reasons behind this is the ZUERT. In (22/06/2023) Daniel flies back to Spain for almost a month to oversee the new ZUERT project. A month later, Daniel is back at Karakura and content for KUERT resumes. New POI's such as POI-006 and POI-007 are published. Not only that but KUERT also starts the first descents to sewers to help lost people and explorers.

This period of time also came with more group interaction. KUERT meets new groups and contacts, allying themselves to gain further knowledge of the underworld.

At this moment, KUERT has gained high amounts of professionality, they had explored almost every part of the sewers (90%), and began aiding explorers as a part of their job. The zenith of this professionality came the KUERT offical suit, made specifically to make the exploring experience easier. The only thing that KUERT lacked was people. Adding more agents was a hard task, because managing them required more responsability from the team. But KUERT needed agents to explore, to make theories and to rescue people. This resulted in a new recruitment and acceptance of those required responsabilities that came with it. To grant protection to their agents they added masks to the KUERT suit to protect agents identity, prepared communication systems, insurance...

The zenith and ending of an era (1/9/2023 - 30/10/2023)

After a long month of preparation and hardwork, Daniel Minaya was ready to handle having people under his care. Hence a small group of less than five people was formed throughout the first days of september. Of course this meant that the rules and operations systems for KUERT had to become tangible, this led to the creation and sistematization of rules and directives.

In the mid september the GOI list has it's long awaited debut with the GOI-002 and GOI-003.

During this period KUERT has experienced a process of neutrality to gangs and KPD to ensure the protection of the new members of the team. This is known as the 'neutrality policy'.

In October of 2023. The Paranormal Entity Incident took place. In the face of such situation KUERT focused completly on resseraching those mysterious entities and stopped operating at sewers temporarly. Many discoveries about the paranormal were discovered but nothing to stop the rise on the anomalous activity. In the middle of the situation Daniel Minaya had to leave Karakura defenetly as his student exchange ended. Leaving the Paranormal investigation unfinished. A council member took the position of the main head of the KUERT and Daniel was reassigned to be the face and ambasser of KUERT.

KUERT under Ms K1 management (4/12/2023 - now)

During a month, everything was silent. Only the new council member, Ms K1, came into the light during the first days of december. KUERT was now back on track.

The first meassures Ms K1 took, were to widen the number of agents and to start the rescue inciative. An iniciative to find and rescue lost people at the sewers. The idea was that Onrain users would DM the KUERT onrain account asking to rescue a certain inidividual. After giving essential data KUERT would inniciate a support operation focused on the extraction of the missing individual in the hopes of finding them. However this iniciative was a complete failiure as no requests were recieved.

The recent activity of KUERT attracted certain groups, who, sought to exchange intel or to collaborate in operations. These positive interactions led to the documents of GOI-004 and GOI-005.

KUERT is now one year old. I am happy that we have made it here.

Workers and group structure

General view

The identity of the agents is generally a secret to keep them safe from the dangers of the underworld. It is known that ZUERT and KUERT share the same structure. The group structure is more public

Council

They control and supervise K.U.E.R.T. to ensure the well being of the team. Any important action is always under the controlling eye of the Council.

Class-B

They lead operations. Like exploring, research, training and so on.

Class-A

The duty of class A is to supervise the operations that the K.U.E.R.T. carries out. There is one for each type of tasks (Exploring, Researching and Supporting).

Class-C

The average agents. They have a vast knowledge of the sewer infraestructure and most of the (POI's/GOI's/TOI's) are seen as common knowledge. They are experienced explorers.

Class-D

The recruits. They have a basic knowledge of Urban exploration. Their job is to offer aid to agents during operations, which act as their training.

Services

KUERT offers a general set of services to anyone who visits their page. The KUERT services are based on giving information to the viewer about Urban exploration and Karakura itself. These documents are classified in the following three.

POI: (Point of interest). A resumed document with information about the place like a spacial description, dangers within etc.
GOI: (Group of interest). A resumed document about a group from Karakura, which explains their purpose, danger and more.
DOI: (Documents of interest). A resumed document about information that wouldn't fit the previous categoires.

Operations

The job of KUERT is divided in categories to help organise the team and its objectives.

Exploration: These operations are about exploring new areas, finding faster ways of moving, training Class-D's and making publicity.
Research: In these types of operations the group tries to find as much information about a topic. They examine POI's and investigate GOI's to make documents.
Support: The support operations are about: approvisioning the sewers so that explorers can have food down there, helping lost people and guiding explorers.

Trivia

KUERT was originally inspired by the M.E.G. and the SCP foundation. Both fictional, completly and undoubtedly non-existent in our world...
ZUERT work experience is very different to the KUERT. There are more POI's in rural areas and the sewers are not an easy place to explore. The groups are more friendly and there aren't as many gangs as in Karakura.
During the (27/12/2023) the KUERT page became unusable because of it being covered in texts and gifs wishing KUERT a happy birthday. This will repeat every KUERT birthday.
