Mobius (The Evil Within)

"Society is wounded. People are suffering, hopeless. Just like you were... before we saved you. Mobius can now do the same for everyone. STEM is a machine designed to connect everyone's subconscious and whoever is at the centre has the power to influence them. There couldn't be a better tool to change the world.. to lead. Society needs a curator and Mobius will be just that; ushering in a next step of humanity"

- The Administrator

MOBIUS is a mysterious organisation that debuted in The Evil Within but only becomes a well-known threat in its DLC's The Assignment and The Consequence and will reappear in The Evil Within 2 in a presumed antagonistic role''. ''Unknowingly, Mobius set off the events of the original game and its sequel due to they're role in working with Ruvik and Marcelo Jimenez to activate the STEM system for unknown but sinister reasons.

Description
According to a recording, Mobius' research dates back to a century ago. There exact motives and benefactors are unknown but they have vast resources, agents and headquarters at their disposal. The Administrator claim that Mobius wish to "usher in a next step of humanity" but further implies their desire to in fact control society through fear via the STEM system, a machine that connects individuals subconscious and allows the host control over them.

Despite a thinly-veiled positive side towards its agents (such as adopting Juli Kidman from the streets and turning her into an agent with her own apartment and bank account in return for her assignment), Mobius is a ruthless organisation shrouded in espionage, conspiracy and illegal activities. They control their agents through fear of failure, indoctrination and brainwashing but are willing to punish severely and even "replace" anyone of unimportance. Many agents such as Marcelo Jimenez and Kidman are all afraid of Mobius, implying their lack of morality in dealing with people such as making them "disappear".

They are not above betraying people who work with them or kidnapping children such as using Ruvik's own machine against him after murdering him and running tests on STEM using his own brain. It's revealed they kidnapped Lily Castellanos, used her as the host of their machine, Union and faked her death when she was seven. However, Mobius appears to have some ethics as they were unwilling to work with Ruvik after learning of his sadistic nature.
