The CENTINELS Planetary Secret Service, or just CENTINELS for short, is an organization dedicated to defending Earth from alien invasion. Created in secret by the United Nations following Earth Defense War I, the CENTINELS are humanity's greatest defense against the GEATHJERK Federation Supreme Armada.

Headquartered in Paris, France, the CENTINELS operate out of 100 field offices located in 100 cities around the world. Located at each field office is a Wonderful One: the special combat agents tasked with fighting the GEATHJERK. In addition to providing combat support for the Wonderful Ones, the CENTINELS are also leaders in the field of Earth defense technology, and they recognize many allies in Earth's struggle against GEATHJERK.

In general, the characters working for or with the CENTINELS comprise The Wonderful 101's ensemble cast of protagonists.

A Planetary Secret Service established by the United Nations to stop a group of invaders, known only as the GEATHJERK Federation Supreme Armada, who appeared suddenly from outer space and began attacking Earth. Based in Paris, the CENTINELS have 100 field offices around the world, from which they fight an alien army estimated to have 10 times the strength of humanity. The CENTINELS name itself evokes the meaning "To stand strong with the power and bravery of 100."

Located at each CENTINELS field office is a special-operations soldier known as a Wonderful One, who wears a powerful exoskeleton known as a CENTINEL-Suit. Their duties are to maintain peace and fight against the covert GEATHJERK forces hiding around the globe engaged in guerilla warfare. They are an elite force selected for their stamina, technique, and character, experiencing every possible form of training. These Wonderful Ones participate in missions ranging from front-line combat to undercover espionage, but the details of each member's mission history is held in the strictest secrecy.

The CENTINELS' 100th field office, based in the rapidly developing Blossom City, is a research station focused on developing an testing new weapons, strategic planning, and collecting alien intelligence. It operates independently from CENTINELS Central command.

The Wonderful Ones, collectively known as the Wonderful 100 (One-Double-Oh) or Wonderful 101 (One-Oh-One), are the CENTINELS' primary combat force and make up the game's main playable characters. By linking together in single file, the Wonderful Ones can merge together to recreate real-world objects using their secret weapon: The Unite Morph.
Out of the entire team, only seven Wonderful Ones are main characters. Each one provides permanent access to a new type of Unite Morph weapon when they are met in the story.

The remaining 93 Wonderful Ones aren't main characters as far as the story is concerned, but are part of the team and playable characters nonetheless. Minor Wonderful Ones are found hidden in almost every level of the game, functioning as collectible upgrades. Unlike temporary civilian recruits, Minor Wonderful Ones become permanent additions to the team when found, allowing you to enter levels with a larger initial team, and they contribute to the total ranks/levels required to unlock new Skills and Unite Morphs.

Wonderful File No.017[]

WFile017 CENTINELS location

The Wonderful File on the CENTINELS can be found by inserting the Wonder-Liner into an open window on the top floor of the brown "Pretzelicious!" building near the end of the long road Mission 007 takes place on. The window is almost out of sight when standing on the road, and may be obscured by the Vitality and Unite Gauges as you pass by, making it very easy to miss.
