Holofernes

Holofernes is a mysterious group or entity, that releases weekly "evaluations" as well as cryptic YouTube videos. Not much is known about them, their members, or their goals, but it is known that winning an "evaluation" provides membership to the group, or at least access.

There are reportedly 10 "main" Holofernes members, all simply numbered I-X using Roman numerals.

Each evaluation is "hosted" by two or more members of Holofernes, who pose tasks to solvers to try and complete.

The May 25th Evaluation
The scheduled May 25th Evaluation was hijacked halfway through. The Closing Remarks video for the second evaluation shows that Holofernes' YouTube channel has been compromised by an unknown party.

During the evaluation, Three's account was taken over, and was used to remove X from the evaluation. It is unknown if the entire organisation has been compromised.

The June 1st Evaluation
During the 1st June Evaluation, it was revealed X has been overthrown by an individual called the Blinded Lord, and Holofernes is now controlled by Lockbird.

The June 30th Evaluation
A full reform of Holofernes took place before Akitu, and they are now led by Eleven, and Three, Four, Six, Seven, and Eight have been replaced.
