Remmy is tall and lythe, not an ounce of muscle on his frame though. As a sickly kid he never filled out much. He wears a brown leather trench coat and wide-brim hat most of the time. He has slightly olive skin and dark eyes betraying his Italian heritage and dark slick backed hair. A long hook knows and pursed lips complete the look, if you didn't know him he could pass for a wiseguy. On his bare chest he has three parallel scars, God knows what gave him those, probably best not to ask.

Background:

Born in New York City, went to PS 192 as a kid. Got into a lot of scraps because he had trouble with his speech, and other kids said unkind things about his mother. Half of those things were true, that was the problem. He couldn't talk it out, so he punched it out.

In his late teens, he not only learned how to speak normally, and how to drive, but also took flying lessons, of both plane and helicopter variety. NYC had changed after the Towers fell. When the air space restrictions made thereafter were eased, a whole generation of New Yorkers were anxious to learn how to fly, and many of them were anxious to teach. What if a passenger has to try to land the plane because the pilots... was an unfinished sentence heard many times from many mouths. A whole lot of people thought they might find themselves in a situation where they'd have to live up to the notion of, "let's roll." Garland thought it was just another way of saying "man up", the only phrase he could remember his father saying to him, so many years earlier. Maybe his dad coined that phrase. Maybe that contributed to his style of delinquency.

In his early twenties, Garland moved to Kentucky. He had family down there, and let's just say that getting out of town was the alternative to going to jail. He wasn't scared of prison, he just didn't like the notion of being cooped up for a year in a 10 by 10 with 1 or 3 guys he didn't know.

There was an incident near Mammoth Cave where got into a tussle with, as a now buried police report says, "guy who was likely high on painkillers and a long time self injurer as evidenced by the large quantity of bandages on him." That there was an illegal fight club one county over explained half the assault reports in the area hospitals that year, and enough of a reason to gloss over any dust ups. Understaffed police departments don't waste manpower looking into idiots beating each other up, especially when the sheriff lays money on the championship fights.

Garland retired undefeated after a year. There maybe footage of some of his bouts on the internet, but none that he's seen. He really doesn't care for computers. He left town after that. Why? "I've dated country girls. I've dated city girls. I prefer city girls."

He found himself in Chicago after that. He preferred the big city life after all, except for when he recently fought a group of young vampires. Well, at least he thought they were vampires. They acted like ones you see in the movies anyway. But oh, his brother would be so proud. His older half brother Arthur, California guy, the only person he maintained communication with, even if it was just a couple times a year. He didn't hold the Californian aspect against him, and didn't believe the dog eared letters where he said he had been fighting all the vampires from Sunnyvale to Los Angeles since he turned 20. Well not, until now. Not exactly a mentor in terms of how to fight the supernatural. Arthur never passed along any info that you couldn't get from horror flicks. But in re-reading letters, which could've been nothing but lies and bravado, Garland allowed himself to think that maybe he not only defeated vampires...he kicked a mummy's you know what.

Garland decided differently the next day. Anyone could just do the right kind of the wrong drugs and have a high tolerance for a smackdown.

But little did he know that he actually did defeat folks that could be called supernatural. and that he did such things without military or paramilitary...or paranormal...training...that's what got the attention of the Hoffman Institute.

After that she became obsessed with the dark arts and joining the Hoffmann Institute and making a difference. Her drive led her to graduate high school two years early. She attended college as soon as possible. She majored in History focusing intently of Medieval Europe. Aurora while seemingly well accomplished, really could not have cared less for her education. In reality she used her time in college to double down on her experimentation with the dark arts. She honestly believes that the best way to defeat the evil is to fight fire with fire.

Dorian ButlerDorian Butler

High Concept: While he can still be harmed, taken out, and killed in all the same ways as a normal human Dorian does not seem to age. In addition he heals more completely than any normal human, with scars eventually disappearing completely, and old fractures gradually fading away to nothing on X-ray scans over the course of decades.Amnesic ageless conman;
Trouble: Dorian's had a difficult life. Between Nam, the asylums, the unexplained things he's seen, and his time as a junky, his sanity has suffered more than a little. He's still mostly sane, but only mostly.Cracked around the edges
Theme songs: Shortchange Hero by The Heavy, My subtle hustle by Clutch, Scar Tissue by the Red Hot Chile Peppers
He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.

Physical: 2; Mental: 3; Fate: 3/3; Scale: medium; Consequences: 3
Skills: +4 Deceit was the mother's milk that Dorian suckled on in what he sees as his youth. It let him survive and even thrive in an unforgiving world, and it keeps him safe from discovery. He might not be the best in the world, but he's a very good liarDeceit;
+3 He prefers conning people into giving him the things he wants over outright theft, but he's gotten pretty dang good at tickling locks and picking pockets when the opportunity arisesBurglary, Hand in hand with deceit comes the ability to charm and influence an individual. Another conman's primary weapons and a well polished one in this case.Rapport, Dorian is a networker. Moreso with some rather than others. Lately he's been working hard at rebuilding his networkContacts;
+2 Dorian doesn't entirely trust his senses and instincts, and likes to take the time to analyze and investigate a situation when he can.Investigate, While Dorian does have some difficulty connecting with and understanding others, it's an important skill for him, so he takes the time and effort to do just that.Empathy, It's been many years since Nam, and this skill has atrophied somewhat, but the ability to handle a firearm is always a boon for someone in Dorian's "line of work."Shoot;
+1 He prefers less confrontational methods of persuasion, but he can still take the role of the bad-cop, especially when it's supported by lies and information already gleaned.Provoke, While what he's been through has left him cracked, it has not yet broken him. Perhaps his will is stronger than his somewhat cowardly demeanor suggests.Will, He has at various times been a wealthy individual, usually for less than legal reasons, but sunk most of what he had into starting up Hard Choices. He's still got a few little investments and nest eggs left though.Resources, He's no lawyer but a good working knowledge of law and the government is something that he's built up over the years, mostly by working to avoid them.Law

Aspects: Dorian has a very strong survival instinct, and when his life is threatened he's capable of pushing himself past his limits to pull off feats that would surprise anyone that knows him. It may not be pretty or graceful, but when the alternative is death, it's worth it.

During the Vietnam War Dorian's cargo plane was shot down in a remote mountainous region. With nothing but his colt1911 sidearm and a few scavenged supplies he attempted to find his way back to friendly lines. On the second day he came across a tiny village in the mountains. From his hiding place in the jungle he could not see any Viet Cong soldiers, but something about the villagers made his blood run cold. The villagers seemed to be going about their business in complete silence and even at a distance something about the way they moved and the shape of their exposed hands and faces felt subtly wrong in a way he couldn't put his finger on. He snuck around the edge of the jungle, avoiding the village entirely.

Twice over the next few hours he came across the bodies of Cong soldiers hung from trees. They'd been torn to shreds, some of them partially eaten. He didn't sleep at all that night, and by morning was convinced that something unseen was watching him. He peered in tense silence from his hiding spot, but could perceive nothing untoward in the unfamiliar foliage. It was past noon before he worked up the courage to move. All that day his mind played tricks on him, flickers of movement out of the corner of his eye, unfamiliar sounds in the greenery took on a sinister cast. Never was he able to clearly perceive a threat, but all the same he was certain it was there.

He pushed himself on past exhaustion for a seeming eternity, nights and days mixing into a series of still images in his memory. Impressions of light and dark, mud and rain, and over it all that heavy humid stink. All the while dread trod on his heels. He still doesn't know what it was that prompted him, but one moment he was trudging through dimness along a thin game trail, following a river, and the next he'd emptied his sidearm into the trees behind him. Something dark and sinuous fell from the branches. From the bushes in which it landed a horrible bubbling shriek burst forth. From the jungle around them the cry was echoed many times over by other throats. Sprinting in a blind exhausted terror Dorian could only listen as the sounds of pursuit came rapidly closer. The sole grenade he'd salvaged from the crashed and burning plane backed them off briefly, giving him enough time to grab a fallen branch and jump into the mountain river.

The shadows never followed him into the water. After shooting a few small rapids the last of his strength left him and Dorian fell asleep. Head tucked into the fork of the branch, he didn't care if he drowned in his sleep, only that they hadn't got to him, that that oppressive terror was receding. He doesn't know how long he drifted down river, only that his next clear memory is of being dragged out of the water and into a PT boat by American servicemen.

According to the official report he'd spent eight days in the jungle alone, but in his memory it was an eternity.Hardscrabble survivor, Maybe it has something to do with whatever makes him ageless, like attracting like, maybe he's cursed by someone or something, or maybe it's just bad luck, but Dorian seems to be destined to run into one bizarre situation after another.
Fish Men? He's friends with one named Abe, and his clan. They live off Maine and are pretty nice folks if you can get past the smell.
Interview with the Vampire? South of France. Her name was Isabella supposedly. Dorian managed to avoid staying for drinks later. Still not sure if it was a euphemism, but better safe than sucked dry.
Chupacabra? Yep. Dorian's still got a scar on his leg from the bastard. You should have seen the other guy though.
Wicked Witch? In the West appropriately enough. LA. She wanted to be a movie star and turned to black magic to make it happen. It didn't. Don't ask.
MIB's? Back in the 70's he ran into a small herd of them while smuggling a certain something something through the South. They wound up chasing him across four states because they thought he had something he didn't. No idea what it was they were really after.
Lizard people? Yea, that was Nam. Not sure if they really were lizard people, but that's the closest description he can come up with.
Leprechaun? Dorain's pretty sure that was just a crazy Irish hobo, way back in jolly old England. Pretty sure.
Ghosts. More than once. One solution was to find and properly bury it's earthly remains, another was to just get the hell out of the house and city.Weirdness Magnet,

Notes:
Dorian is, to all appearances, a man respected by the community. The owner and operator of a small charity operation called Hard Choices Half-way House. A place for people trying to reconnect with the world and shake the chains of substance abuse and mental illness. Hard Choices gets by with a combination of government money and funds from various charities, as well as the occasional private donation.

England, nineteen forty. A man washes up on a southern beach with a horrific head wound and green clothing so tattered and burnt as to be unrecognizable.

He is assumed to be a sailor from one of the ships sunk in the fighting across the English channel that year, and brought to a military hospital. When he wakes up weeks later, identifying him proves impossible, as his speech matches no language known to man and seems terrified of his surroundings. The doctor decides his head wound has resulted in him talking in tongues and probable mental retardation. He is remanded to the custody of an asylum.

The years in the asylum are not kind to the man. Ideas on how to treat the insane or retarded are practically medieval during this period, and memories of that time haunt him for the rest of his life. But he perseveres, learning English and the basics of the world around him. He is however amnesic and cannot remember anything before he woke up in the hospital. At something of a loss as to what to do with him, the government gives him an indefinite work visa and releases him into the streets of post war London to fend for himself.

The post war era is not kind to the man either. Due to the Post-War Consensus nationalizing many of the UK's industries, work is hard to come by for a man with few skills. Doubly so for a former asylum inmate with a funny accent and nervous disposition. But he perseveres, learning the rules of the street. He learns how to lie, how to steal, who to cheat, and who to appease. Inevitably he comes to the attention of the police.

In the fifties the man faces difficult prospects. If captured and convicted he'd know a judicial system with little sympathy in it's heart for someone of unknown origins and felonious means. He could be deported to parts unknown, incarcerated for years or decades, or worst of all sent back to the asylum for a hell of electro-shock, beds with restraints, condescending looks, and those fellow “loons” bad enough to make one long for silence and solitude. So this man collects his wealth, calls in all of his markers and favors, and disappears.

Shortly thereafter another man appears in Los Angles California. He looks much the same as the first, but is an American citizen born in England by way of his American serviceman father, who'd been there during the first world war. He even has paperwork to prove it. He's also flat broke.

The sixties were actually not too bad, at least to start. He's already savvy so learning the rules of a new culture, and it's criminal element wasn't so bad. In a few years he has a respectable income, some of it even legitimate. Better, he's getting savvy enough to stay off the radar of the police. Then a new problem crops up. He isn't ageing. During a visit to some old “friends” in the UK they comment that he didn't look a day older, despite having known him for over a decade. A grainy photo of another man, taken more than twenty years ago during a celebration of the end of WW2, didn't look any different than he did on that very day, or any other for that matter.

During the next few years he is a virtual recluse. People begin to talk. Eventually he introduces his son, born again to an English woman a few years after the end of WW2. He arranged to have the young man become an American citizen, then left the majority of his belongings to this son and leaves for a Tibetan Monastery. Plastic surgery is coming into the mainstream and he could even alter his features slightly if he so chooses, but he won't need that in Tibet.

The ease at which the man's son gains citizenship mystifies him. The son finds out in the mid sixties that this is because Americas “support” of South Vietnam is going to require large numbers of troops shortly. The son is drafted and arrives in Vietnam less than a year later. He sees many things, from Operation Cedar Falls to the Tiet offensive, he is one of the helicopter servicemen that witnesses the My Lai Massacre. In 1970 he is released on a section-8, again remanded to an institution.

After talking his way out of the nuthouse the seventies are a haze of drugs and regret. He again becomes “known to the police” as a petty criminal and grifter of difficult past. By the early eighties he seems to be cleaning himself up, but in nineteen eighty four a body, identified as his, is found burnt and mutilated in one of the worst areas of south-central LA. An unfortunate end to an unfortunate life.

He is survived by a son, raised largely by a friend, who eventually settles in New York in the mid nineties. A few years later he starts a half-way house for people with addiction and mental problems. Other “side activities” supplement his income and support the half-way house, called Hard Choices. While hardly an idyllic lifestyle, it gives the man with a difficult family history a certain sense of contentment. Of course, inevitably, change is just around the corner.

Perform research or gather information.
Win an argument or make someone look like a dullard.

Compel To -
Upset someone important because you know more than them.

"Although in his methods of thought he was the neatest and most methodical of mankind...[he] keeps his cigars in the coal-scuttle, his tobacco in the toe end of a Persian slipper, and his unanswered correspondence transfixed by a jack-knife into the very centre of his wooden mantelpiece... He had a horror of destroying documents...Thus month after month his papers accumulated, until every corner of the room was stacked with bundles of manuscript which were on no account to be burned, and which could not be put away save by their owner."

What appears to others as chaos, however, is to Holmes a wealth of useful information. Throughout the stories, Holmes would dive into his apparent mess of random papers and artifacts, only to retrieve precisely the specific document or eclectic item he was looking for. In matters of personal hygiene, by contrast, Holmes is described in The Hound of the Baskervilles as having a "cat-like" love of personal cleanliness

Appearance: Slightly built middle aged gentleman with an unruly mass of curly mouse brown hair. Blue-grey eyes peep out from under slightly shaggy brows. Typically dressed in a shabby herringbone jacket and vest, he could be mistaken for a college professor or librarian.

Persona
Backstory: Raised in a wealthy family, his parents let him be raised by a series of nannies and boarding schools. He always did well in school, but was always a bit bookish. He is heir to a title, but has never really put much thought into it. Since he lives mostly in the States it never comes up, other than providing a generous income for him to live on. The one true regret in his life (getting married) lead to one of the true joys (two children). He was too young to get married and now wishes he could see more of his children.
Personality and surface affectations: The classic English gentleman, he is reserved and understated by habit. His ex wife called him aloof and uncaring, but that would entirely miss the point. He is just interested in different things than most and she wasn't at all. Often pedantic and a bit of a noodge.
Worldview:The world is a web of interconnectedness - often at such a deep level that the participants themselves have no idea of the connection. The hidden part of society is so much more interesting than the open and populated by the most interesting people. Getting to them is worth the effort and ferreting out the connections often reveals much more about the true goals of those involved.
Theme Song Voodoo by Godsmack

Purpose
Goals: Make the world a safer place for his children. Know what there is to know, find a solid footing upon which to make progress toward a better self.
Motivations: Curiosity, idealism taken to an extreme. Protection of the unknowing from those who would exploit them
Inner demons and conflicts: Which is the right way and which are dead ends? How does one measure right and wrong? Do others have the right to practice their own beliefs if the practice of them impinges on others? When is the exercise of power the right thing? How responsible is one when the actions of others force violent exercise of power?
Character arcs:
Short:discover a nascent talent for magic.
Medium:cohere years of study and practice into a framework of morality that he can live by.
Long:wrestle with the implications of absolute truth, power and how it changes the one who wields it. Elucidate a theory and understanding of magick.

Notes: parents alive, ex-wife 2 children, curious, fulfilling a vow (tbd), fortitude and tenacity. Idealist. Questioning morality - killed/dead prior associate.

Notes: A scientist first and foremost, Alicia has a masters degree in Botanical Chemistry from Concordia university in Montreal. Raised in rural Quebec, she is more at home in the northern forests than in the cities further south, and is fluent in French as well as English. After graduating, Alicia applied to the Hoffman Institute with the expectation of doing research on biofuels or some such work, seeing it as a more interesting alternative than working in a botanical garden - her actual job duties will be far different from her expectations.

Notes: Eachan or Professor Mac or Professor Currie, is an itinerant speaker at a number of universities in Europe and North America. His specialty is Germanic studies and history with a minor in languages both current and arcane. During his studies he came across enough information to change from the Catholic faith of his parents to a more distant faith built on the ideas of his Scandinavian fore-bearers. (fortunately he is well aware that a large part of the Scottish population shares some viking DNA) His studies led him to an unimpressive small home in the rural areas of Iceland where he met and was trained by one of the few surviving Seidr/Gythja's to be found. He was introduced to a world behind our own, where legends and nightmares actually live or seem to live. Sometimes he doubts his own sanity or the memories he has of that time. Now he teaches more common aspects of Germanic history while pursuing his own studies into the esoteric. His only contact thus far with the Hoffman institute has been a research project or two through anonymous contacts.

The “young” man had been in Eachan’s den and associated alcove for hours. Periodically the middle-aged professor would stick his head in to inquire about progress or to offer some form of hospitality to the gent working on his electronics corner. Thus far replies had been a subvocalised sort of grumble that might or might not have been intended as intelligible discourse. Despite these communication setbacks, the Old world tradition of hospitality had been observed. Over the course of three days, Eachan had provided the workman with a bacon-spinach omelet and home-fries, asiago-mushroom-redpepper and Italian sausage foccacia, blackened chicken diane with gnocchi, a southwest strata with more bacon and green chiles, something called “sawmill” gravy on biscuits (not biscuits such as one would use to entertain during tea time, but some americanised breakfast roll.) and an unlimited supply of various teas, juices and flavored waters. Now as things wound to closure however the professor had set up a proper celebratory arrangement on the balcony outside his living area.

Overlooking Lake Michigan, Eachan’s balconies all provided stunning views of some of the more visually appealing parts of Chicago. The timing seemed almost perfect to enjoy a relaxing beverage while congratulating this Mr. Byers for a job well done. In addition to a beverage and some hearty thanks, professor Currie had possessed the foresight to provide a thick envelop with a referral letter on his own elegant letterhead, and a very nice and tidy stack of American dollars as a gratuity. When he had asked one of the “geek” crew at the Universities Computer department something about Roy’s story had made him a clear choice for the rather eccentric demands of an offbeat college lecturer.

That impression had been heartily reinforced when the young man in question had responded promptly and shown up punctually to view the prospective work. His sketches had been clear, concise and as sharp as if printed. Even more impressive had been the detailed and very complete list of supplies and materials necessary for the project. It seemed odd for such an excellent mind to seem so socially awkward. If the conversation was technical in nature this Mr. Byers was animated, energetic and very vocal. If however Eachan had tried to engage him in social pleasantries the effort invariably withered and died within moments.

Still, his work seemed flawless. From his last peek, Eachan was certain that the work was complete except for some minute cosmetic adjustments. The faraday cage was probably still gleaming copper but it was invisible behind the fresh drywall and wainscoting. The lighting was also unobtrusive yet gave a variety of options for everything from pinpoint spotlights to a muted glow. Ostensibly the room was devoted to the large and decorative screen of a high definition projection style screen for movies and presentations. The truth however was that a good three quarters of the labor had gone into the small alcove containing an innocuous looking computer and printer set up and a bank of chargers for Eachan’s personal devices.

The wiring was carefully shielded and hidden, the faraday cage to divert random energies was even less apparent, and the preparatory runic work done by the scholar himself was even less obvious. As it stood the little corner seemed impervious to most types of energy. From a lightning bolt to an EMP there was little that threatened the device and he had been insured that it would take a handful of devoted hackers to get past the firewalls and security measures in place. The story told, was that he was paranoid about others stealing his research and preempting any literary or publishable papers. While that was indeed a concern, the greater issue was that there were notes and correspondences that would raise more than an occasional eyebrow. Very few people discussed shamanism, spirit work, runic energy, or what others would call “cryptic” with so little doubt about the subject.

Even as he pondered the new equipment, Eachan’s chime rang with the security man downstairs. Since these guests were expected Eachan had given notice of their arrival ahead of time. Christoph however never took a chance and always rang the residents before allowing outsiders into the converted old opera house. Within minutes a polite knock at the door heralded the arrival of the trio of short and stocky visitors in their concealing overcoats.

Without a word the foremost of the trio extended a thick hand into which Eachan placed a small bag that clinked and clunked with it’s contents. Still without saying anything the professor had given each of the three a half bow and offered them each a piece of bread sprinkled with salt and a thick mug of very dark and foaming beer. Only after all four players in this little ceremony had both eaten and taken a large draught did the newcomers speak.

Hejsa, Professeur. Ve are hyere for da work. Ist cage ready? As he spoke in his slow and thick accent the shorter man led his companions towards the room with the computer. Ja ist gut work. Now we test then we do our part no?

Before Eachan could so much as utter a response all three visitors clapped their hands together rubbing them back and forth while a low rumbling sound vibrated in all three throats. Still vocalizing, the back pair reached forward and placed two palms against the leader’s back. When all three were in contact they each gave a low grunt and the lead Alfr, drove his opened hand towards the room with the cage and computer. Eachan’s jaw almost dropped as a visible golden energy uncoiled from the fellow’s hand and rolled through the walls towards the computer and it’s hopefully complete defense.
His reaction was however pale in comparison to the gentleman engineer who had managed to step into the room at precisely the right time to see this bit of arcanery unfold.

The clock had not moved in approximately 3 hours. Of course the hands were steadily clicking and the minutes were moving by, but to the rumpled middle aged man in the middle of the room, the clock had all but stopped. He was tired. He was hungry. His leg hurt as did his back and there was a very persistent rhythmic pounding beneath the agony in his head. In short, Eachan was at the end of his resources. Gentlemen I believe that this has gone on far enough don’t you?

Despite the waspish snap to his tone, the professor seemed to be speaking to empty air. In addition to the annoyance, his voice had a very discernible accent from somewhere near the highlands of Scotland. The vest he wore had once been an almost obnoxiously green tartan with lines of yellow and an orange red in the traditional plaid pattern. In fact he owned several other bits of the same woolen mix to be worn as everything from a vest to a great kilt as well as Scottish formal wear. His pants were a charcoal grey that had been well pressed and very well made when he donned them along with the knee high boots now crusted with mud. An off-white linen “poet shirt” finished the ensemble along with a bit of amber in one ear, a trio of silver or white gold rings, and the ornately decorated silver cane that he occasionally twisted in his grip. All in all Eachan looked like a mildly eccentric academic sort who had been lost in the swamp for a week or so. If I have not satisfied your curiousity yet then I am certain we no longer need continue this charade. I came seeking a few answers to some questions. You’ve put me through the hoops and rings and if you are not ready to answer my questions by now then I shall seek the answers elsewhere.

As he started to lever himself wearily to his feet a door opened just to his left. Thank you Dr. McVurlich. I am sorry for the delays.

As he spoke, the newcomer put a tray down on the single plain table in the middle of the room. Like the table, the room and the two chairs were plain and unadorned. The floors were an unremarkable pale tile, the walls were eggshell, even the acoustic panels in the ceiling were unmarred by so much a small waterstain. There appeared to be no mirrors, cameras or microphones but Eachan was quite certain he had been observed the entire time. Before he could voice his own frustrations though, the newcomer continued. Help yourself to the tray there. You’ve been through quite a bit and you’re bound to be ravenous. Do you need any medical assistance in the meantime? Your heart rate is only mildly elevated probably due to frustration and probably some pain from the inflammation in your leg. I imagine you are irritable and developing a fairly significant headache as well. Monitors indicate that your blood sugar is quite low. Everything else is in surprisingly good working order.

The thirtyish younger man in his non-descript navy suit and “power tie” of electric blues and reds ignored the sustained intensity of the professor’s glare as he continued. I will give you what answers I can, however you are likely to be disappointed in those answers. Not that we plan to withhold that much from you. The truth is, well….mildly embarrassing. We simply don’t know enough to answer some of those questions. In fact we’re hoping you can help us with the same questions you yourself have.

It’s professor Mac, Currie or Eachan please. I find the Doctor title a tad unwieldy and pretentious. With only the slightest softening of his gaze, Eachan lifted the top of the tray to discover not only a plate of roast beef with all of the desirable side items, but a small clasp-top envelope. His priorities might usually be otherwise, for now though the steaming plate occupied his complete attention. He managed to wrangle a heaping pile of whipped potatoes and beef with thick rich gravy onto his fork . With a nod of encouragement he met the eyes of the youngster with his conservative hair cut and warm and open smile. Continue.

Ah, ok then professor Currie, first let me congratulate you. Not only were your written scores well above the norm. You passed one of the most extensive physical assessments I’ve seen. Not necessarily the hardest. We had to take into account your age and your limitations…or rather our perception of your limitations. You surprised a number of people there. Sometime we’ll have to discuss exactly how you managed one or two of those obstacles. You also scored surprisingly well in a couple of areas unique to our testing. Tell me have you had experiences with …oh a ghost or spirit in your past? Your willingness to accept umm, unexpected, occurrences was rather remarkable. In fact that was why your psychological evaluation was so lengthy. We needed to make sure you weren’t delusional or somesuch. I can’t say your completely clear of any psychological influences but you are quite sane enough for our purposes.

Again the agent flashed his eager smile at the small joke. The response was smaller than the joke. Ahem. Well…ok. Professor you may or may not have heard of the Hoffman Institute. It was one of our agents that has been contracting the research you are asking us about. I must say your notes are always well organized and more or less on point. I’ve read a couple of them. Unfortunately we do not know what that agent was last working on, or why he asked for the information you had for him. We haven’t spoken to him in some time now. We also have very little information about the three ladies you reported seeing in Connecticut. What answers I do have are limited but they can be given to you. On the other hand…well lets cut to the chase. Professor, would you care to work for us? It seems we have a common goal and I think the association could be profitable for both of us.

Extras: Organization - Hoffmann Institute
Nanite Remnants: Xenotechnology (Stunt): - when dealing with technology of an extant origin, receive a +2 bonus to Technical Science.

Notes: Roy has a gift with dealing with technology. He has developed this gift (unwittingly) at the expense of his family and friends. He thinks he is just an engineer dealing with the cutting edge, but sometimes his is able to push that edge

Background: Roy read the email with a mix of wariness and relief. Wariness because that which is 'too good to be true' usually was, and because he had spent most of the last week trying to gather the facts of why he was fired. He had been fired for a cause and that was bad news. He also thought it was totally unjustified. So Roy tried to find out the 'real' reason in order to protect himself. It wasn't until he dug up the facts that he got an unpleasant surprise and realized he needed to put out feelers for more work fast. The relief was that he had gotten a new offer, he had a chance to undo and fix the damage to his reputation that such a firing would have.

Growing up Roy was on of those kids that got more enjoyment taking apart his toys and seeing how they worked then playing with them. Or more precisely that was how he played with them. When they broke, either from his 'play' or from someone else then he tried to fix them. His parents thought it was kinda weird but it kept him out from underfoot so they 'supported' his interest. So in time his skills at fixing closed in on his skill at breaking them. This lead to him naturally enough turning his passion into his career.

Large business have large support systems and machinery. Most of the time maintain such can come from in-house staff an expertise. But from time to time, wither by merger, outsourcing, layoffs, retirements, or other poor choices by management this expertise and knowledge can be lost. If the system is reasonably stable it can work for a long time as a simple 'black box' Where the business simply puts in whatever the input is and gets whatever the output is with no care whatsoever on how it happens. No care at least until it stops working and they realize no one knows how to make it work again.

This was the field that Roy had entered, he was one of a few people that could go in to such situations and fix it. His technical skills and knowledge was profound but amoung his peers and the people he went up against for jobs that was a given. The difference on who got jobs would come down to reputation... So getting fired from a job was bad, having it be for things like 'performance issues' or 'Inappropriate use of resources' or 'many complains' could be a death sentence to getting any further work. Roy hadn't done any of those things he knew he hadn't. He figured he was a victim of interoffice politics or some middle manager covering his own a$$ by blaming him. Unfortunately his research turned up no such thing. When Roy took an unbiased look at the facts he collected he had to admit it pointed to him. How could that be? Then he looked at the dates... All of the events fell on the time he was going through his divorce. He wasn't that good with dealing with his own or other peoples emotions and both had been running high at the time. Had he done something stupid after all? He had to admit during such a time of emotional turmoil he couldn't be sure of much of anything.

Her name was Suzanne... And they met just shy of their 20 birthdays. She had gotten out of a bad relationship and was looking for someone nice. Roy had never really been in a relationship and Suzanne's interest in him was like the best thing ever. Over a short period of time their relationship developed and hormones over rode common sense and he got her pregnant. In the kind of flawed logic that you get from someone more comfortable with machines than people. Roy concluded that he had 'broken' her and needed to 'fix' her. Which in his mind meant marriage and fatherhood.

Shouldering his new responsibility he forced himself to finish his education and work to support his family. He was successful in providing what Suzanne and his daughter needed Samantha needed, but full time work and full time school left him no time with them. He was more of a ghost in their lives then a person. Suzanne understood and did her best to support him while doing the school and work thing. Hoping and expecting that once school stopped Roy would have more time for his family. That didn't happen. Their was always more work or seminars or continuing education. Roy thought he had it working, and the fights and disagreements were just byproducts of a stressful and hectic life.

He did not realize it was signs of things being broken until it became to much for Suzanne. When he did, he tried to fix it, he tried to make it right, but he was to late. There had been to many lonely nights, to many missed events for Suzanne over the years. She left him and filed for divorce. It finalized just a short while ago, but the emotional impact was harsh. And Roy hadn't had a whole lot of experience dealing with such things. He muddled through as best he could.

The mixed feelings of the email was child play compared to that. Roy knew he need to work, he had a daughter to think of. Plus you know alimony that the courts ordered him to pay Suzanne so she could take herself and their daughter. The fact that Suzanne's new guy, 'WhatHisFace' was also there was just a bitter pill he had to swallow. So it was time to pack and head to DC.

Doctor River McGurk became interested in cults after growing up in Indian Ashram with his hippy parents until he was 13. His parents returned to Australia and young River never really fitted in. Academically he was a whiz kid and excelled at the University of Melbourne becoming a lecturer in Sociology. His area of expertise was Cults. His talent was spotted by ASIO and he was employed as an undercover operative infiltrating various organisations for a period of 10 years including the Rajneeshs, Scientologists and a little known group the Eighth Day.

McGurk is a brilliant analyst of human relationship and has amazing insight into group dynamics. He has practical and theoretical knowledge of behaviour modification and persuasion techniques. Since finishing up his fieldwork for ASIO he has become reclusive and paranoid. McGurk has become a bit of a survivalist nut and lives on an isolated property near the Daintree Rainforest. The position with Hoffman Institute interests him greatly as he believes, although he would never state it publicly, aliens or other forms of intelligent life maybe using cults and even social media as form of mind control and indoctrination. He would also welcome the chance to move overseas to escape the eyes that are always watching him.

Born to a Cherokee father and a white mother in the heart of the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma, Joseph was said by one of the local elders to be born under a strange star and would one day be very important. Naturally, his parents pretty much ignored that, but that didn't stop the boy from growing a fascination with the old stories and legends and developing a strong sense of right and justice. These two loves drove him towards his degree: A B.S. in Criminal Justice with a minor in Native American Studies from the University of Oklahoma.

Returning home, Joseph settled into a position with the Cherokee Nation Marshals, quickly making his way to Detective and helping to solve several local murders and rapes. Still though, the young detective felt as if there was something missing in his life, something bigger that he could be doing. And so he applied to the FBI, NSA, and BIA, that last one being the only one that responded favorably.

In the years since, Joseph has traveled the country as a BIA Special Agent, investigating the most heinous of crimes that happen on Native land. In the beginning, the truly strange cases were intermixed with the "normal" ones, but being the only one capable of solving them has given him a bit of a reputation, and more and more of the cases with not-quite-logical endings come across his desk now.

Background:
Alice Rowntree was of a number of children to be lucky enough to grow up in the age of rapid technological advancement which brought us from a relative disconnect to the world around us to one where access to instantaneous information was the norm. The fact that her family provided the lifestyle and means to embrace these changes meant that the odd girl was more likely to browse databases than attend a sleepover, spending late nights teaching herself every shred of computer knowledge that she could grasp at. Ultimately, the flood of information served to bring out a quirk buried in her psyche; she had an insatiable curiosity that required her to see the patterns in things. This manifested in a form of obsessive-compulsive disorder that required the identification of patterns around her, such as a right side of the bed to get out on. But when introduced to that wealth of information from the net, it turned into what most would see as madness.

She came across all manner of conspiracy theory in her studies: UFOs, Roswell, missing gunmen, New World Order, a Hollow Earth, reptilian overlords, chemicals in the water. While most would brush away these things as the ravings of madmen, her mind grasped for any hint of a pattern. She would take that idea of UFOs and try to trace it back, going over historical accounts dating back years. While some would be thrown out for clearly being falsified, others would stick, and she would try to draw the connections that would tell her the deeper patterns of the world. As she started to find truth behind some of these patterns, it was the natural step that she seek out a position at the Hoffman Institute, where her curiosity and ability to not immediately reject the abnormal might serve her well.

Name: Oksana
High Concept: Mystical Urban Explorer
Trouble: Will risk it all for a Peak Experience
FX Aspect: Telekinetic Instincts

Skills+4 Stealth
+3 Burglary, Telekinesis FX
+2 Athletics, Medical Science, Tactical, Shoot
+1 Resources, Deceive, Notice, Will

Refresh: 4

BackgroundAddicted to the euphoria of rediscovering places both forgotten and forbidden, Oksana spent much of her childhood and early twenties planning for and then conducting elaborate exploratory missions. Medical school started as an excuse to put off adult responsibilities became a means of funding her ‘hobby’ as it became more consuming and her partners got married, had kids, or got arrested after bragging too much online.

She needed to broke away from the Urbex community and become more self-sufficient: learning to shoot for protection, and developing an inexplicable knack for - when the situation demanded it - being able to manipulate objects and her own trajectory with her thoughts. Her missions became meticulously thought-out to take advantage of whatever gaps she could find in her work-load.

With some resources saved up, she’s ready to make a career out of exploring old places in new ways.

Development NotesHer skill sets may need to be shaken up. I'm not thinking anything major, just a swap in for medical science, probably.

StuntsTelekinetic Synesthete. You can sometimes sense things about concealed objects that sighted people could tell by seeing them: texture is a feeling in your jaw, color can be a taste. Make a telekinetic overcome roll with a difficulty starting at Fair (+2) for a nearby object with minimal amounts of material between you and the object.

Creatures of Habit. +2 to overcome rolls with stealth if the opposition comes from people whose duty or habits you understand well without needing to create an advantage.

Without a Trace. You don’t have to be present to provide active opposition to someone trying to analyse physical evidence that you were present during a crime.
