Faction Profile

The Leonida Department of Corrections runs the state prison system. In Leonida this agency is not background scenery. The story opens with Lucia Caminos incarcerated. The DOC is the institution she is held in, the environment the opening sequence establishes, and the system the story begins inside.

Prisoner transport, facility management, and the security apparatus of a state correctional system are the DOC's operational profile. In Leonida this translates to specific mission types: transport interdiction, facility infiltration, and the story beats that involve navigating the institutional machinery of the criminal justice system rather than avoiding it.

The real Florida correctional system has a specific character that the design will have referenced. Large facilities, significant staffing, and the specific institutional culture that develops in environments built around long-term detention. The Leonida DOC will carry enough of that character to be recognizable.
