I've always believed there were 300 or so Watchers max. At least that's what I've always used number wise for them.
REJOICE! For bad things are about to happen.

Was there ever a canon count of Watchers?
No.

Cool.  That means it's possible my first choice character could be the son of a Watcher.

Just something I've been considering . . .

Someone like Jonathan Blake, or a relatively anonymous Watcher?

Relatively anonymous.  An Anglo (and family) living in Fairbanks, Athabaskan Council.

What's the best source of information on Watchers?

One of my player's characters secretly works for Big D via Jane-in-the-Box (campaign set in the 50s)... and he usually makes copies of all the data they collect etc.

Seems likely that he would be part of an organisation like this... but would like to get more info before introducing it into the game.

Thanks

Portfolio of a Dragon gives the most info on them, but other than a few people who are confirmed Watchers, not much is known, other than the fact that their network is likely world-wide.

There were bits of updates in Dragons of the Sixth World, State of the Art: 2064, and Loose Alliances, since time had marched on.  But POAD is probably most relevant to a 2050s campaign.

This should give you enough to go on. Also, during Crash 2.0, SilveryK spread the word to Shadowland about how to kill the worm.

Silvery K (Kimberly Robinson), System Admin
SilveryK joined the Denver Nexus group in 2058 after sharing some of the toys that were given to her in Big D’s Will with Bash and Shiva. She is backup for Perri in administration duties, plus is the liaison for Ghostwalker’s requests from the Dragon’s Lair.

Of course, Bash and Shiva both died, while SIlveryK didn't and, in fact, moved up the ladder in Denver in the wake.

Just as planned.
