I'm happy to announce that we have selected our two new recruits. The interview and selection process was very difficult. We REALLY appreciate those who expressed interest, and esp. those who completed the applications!

Shaman Of Ohio will be joining us, playing Joseph "Kanuna" Write.
And
Neqq will be joining us, playing Dr. River McGurk.

Human Resources asks that the selected recruits post their CS in the forum to complete the paper work to process your hire.

We look forward to seeing you in the field, soon!

- Savy

Kevin has to whistle through just about all the invitational hymns he knows to check all the entrances to the Arena, but he confirms that they are all locked. It seems like he’d need some heavier equipment to break the chains. So he places a call to his Hoffman contact. No answer. He waits in his car for a return call. A rumbling stomach tells him when he’s waited long enough. Who’s he kidding? He’s always been a man of words. Abandoned arenas and industrial locks are not in his wheelhouse.

Wasn’t there another brochure in the stack that caught his eye? Right, Healing Waters Tabernacle. Sounds like a nice group of people. He calls his contact again. No answer. Rummaging around in the glove compartment provides just the thing he needs to put this Hoffman nonsense behind him and fill him with inspiration again. A sandwich bag with a quarter ounce of dried mushrooms. As he pulls away from the arena, he starts popping them like chitlins. The tabernacle reverend will surely see that God requires him to step aside. He might need a little convincing.

Conspiracies? Magic? Modern times? And the FATE system no less?

...I can't say for sure I'll have something, but there's some ideas already bubbling around in my head. I'll try to get something more concrete up for the weekend. I'm sort of tempted with mixing Action Scientist a la Atomic Robo with "Big Data" Analyst, but I'll need to glance around a little to get more of the themes involved, to make sure I get the right feel, since I am unfamiliar with Dark*Matter. Though, for the current bubbling... when I think magic and aliens, I go straight to cosmic horror. Is that a thing in Dark*Matter, or is it more surmountable threats that this clandestine agency deals with?

REAL NAME: Mi-Cha Kim
REAL AGE: 19
REAL PLACE OF BIRTH: North Korea

BACKGROUND: Mi-Cha is born in a typical city in North Korea and grew there in awful conditions under the rule of the communist party. One day when she was 9 years old, government soldiers and agents came in her ward of the city and asked all the children to be gathered for inspection. They performed all kinds of physical and mental examination and they discovered that Mi-Cha was a telepath. She then was selected for a special program. Her family was compensated to keep their mouth shut and just like that, Mi-Cha ended up in a truck in direction of a secret government facility.

Her training as a spy for the government started immediately, she learned many languages and everything there is to know about the world of intelligence. They taught her how to develop her talent, infiltrate, manipulate, blend-in, seduce and kill. Mi-Cha has a mind of steal, but nothing could had prepared her for the unhuman experiments performed in the facility and she was one of the guinea pigs. The physical training was unbearable and only few of the children that was selected at the same time as Mi-Cha survived and could complete the training. She lost so many friends that she shut her mind and wish that one day she could escape and hope for a better life. The final test was to fight to the death with her best friend in the facility, something inside her died that day.

When she finally was 18, she received intensive plastic surgery to have a gentle face and a perfect body, this was meant to make her a more efficient spy and prevent nobody from her previous life could recognize ever her. She was activated as a passive agent in South Korea with a mission to observe the government. For the first time she felt free for a moment, until she realized that senior agents had a close eye on her. She played the game and gain her agency confidence over time waiting for an opportunity to escape. Eventually she was assigned to China, her mission was simple, she had to seduce one of the gouvernment official and steal government secret. She played her game well and was able to complete her mission, but was caught before she could escape the country. Of course the North-korea goverment denied all kind of involvment and they leaked informations so that Mi-Cha was identify as a South-Korean agent by the chinese. She was tortured for weeks.

Few weeks after her captures, an American commando of SEALs was deployed in her jail located south of China to free a CIA agent that was next to her cell. One of the solider saw her covered in blood and had pity on her. They helped Mi-Cha to escape and took her with them. She was extracted to USA and the captain who made this decision was court-martial to have free her, an unknown agent, but had the satisfaction of having done the right thing. Mi-Cha was debrief and collaborated with the CIA, eventually she was given the opportunity to join the hoffman agency.

Can we get a crypto-zoologist maybe? I'm not POSITIVE but I think some of our group may need such a handler on occasion.

I'm working on a telepath character. I hope it can fit the fate system.

Anything can fit FATE. It's one of the most open-ended systems there is. It's DM approval w'need to worry about!

Could be... I think it something like X-files meets Warehouse 13. If is Legend or Urban Lore, it fits here, sometimes with a wicked twist.

BTY - BIG LOVE of Atomic Robo here!

WE REALLY need a tech - but I think I need to give full disclosure here.

So far, the Tech's have been our "Red Shirts". I'm not sure why that is, but we are going through them in Bushels. The last one was kidnapped by a rouge FBI agent, who 'might' have been working for the Illuminati, having recently transformed (in remission) to a Sandman (think "borg"ed).
