[OOC] VIGILANCE: Memento Mori

[An Outsider]

Hey I just saw this and i'm interested in joining. Is there still room?

@LPFan

Yeah! Drop us a cs, and remember to read the rules!

[Lord Wraith]

@LPFan Definitely! I'm not really capping the RP as it's meant to allow people to come and go as often happens. So if you have a character in mind submit an app!

@BlackSam3091

Hurray for finishing each other's sandwiches.

@t2wave

And do you have a plan in mind for where the leak came from?

@BlackSam3091

@Lord Wraith

Yes. It is not particularly nefarious, more opportunistic than anything. Information has value. A name, a face, and a mention of WWII and digging into her history isn't that hard. There is money to be made by picking a side and promoting it. They would just need someone inside that is willing to make a few bucks. And releasing it into the wild would make it quite difficult to stamp out before media outlets got wind of it.

Now there's no reason that H.E.L.P. can't approach Ruth and advise her not to speak publicly but her name and history are out there and public knowledge. Putting a gag order on her would look bad so this would be an unexpected surprise. Damage control time.

@t2wave

So is she still trying to work with H.E.L.P while dealing with the media?

[An Outsider]

@Hillan Think my Skype name is just Sam MacPhee.

I'm so good at social media.

edit; Of course anyone else can add me if they want to.

She would. Ruth doesn't see how being a public figure helps anyone in particular. For the most part she is a helper and not a leader. H.E.L.P. looks to be the best option for that. But that won't change the public opinion of her alone. People want answers even if they don't really need them. It's why celebrities have a constant eye on them for every little detail.

Whoever it was, they weren't really...

... H.E.L.Ping.

@Mr Allen J

Ahhh, I knew you were feeling the puns!

[twave]

I could have made a pun very easilly. But decided not to.

[Mixtape Ghost N]

@BlackSam3091

*Looks up your skype name*

.... Which one?

@Mr Allen J

Double that, though through a process of deduction and assuming you are in fact male all this time I think I have it eliminated down to one sam.macphee1 if not then they're going to be very confused.

@BlackSam3091@Lord Wraith

I take it there is still something to sort out with my CS.

@t2wave

I don't believe so, just have to wait for confirmation from Sam but I think you should be good now.

[twave]

@BlackSam3091@Lord Wraith

Ah. If you need me to establish anything in particular with H.E.L.P. please let me know so I can do so when I do start posting.

[Lord Wraith]

@t2wave As in how Ruth is working with them or what exatly did you have in mind?

[twave]

@Lord Wraith

Yes. I do not understand all that they do though so I only have a limited idea. Though obviously she can work on the medical side of anything and coordinate what kind of information she speaks about to the media.

@t2wave

Well H.E.L.P. is broken into three divisions:

Equality and Education: (Sidenote I know the OP says 'and Research' but as you see below that's redundant and shouldn't be there.) This division of Help works the political sector, ensuring that Hyperhumans receive the same rights, privileges and treatment as regular humans. As they just went from a Federal level to an International level the Equality department is stretched rather thin. The Education department is divided between providing education to the public about Hyperhumans and what is known of their abilities as well as providing education and training to Hyperhumans, this is primarily at the Pacific Royal Collegiate and University in British Columbia but I have plans to eventually have H.E.L.P. open other institutes.

Logistics and Research: Logistics looks after organizing all of H.E.L.P. while research looks into further understand Hyperhumans and their Hype genes. If Ruth were to be helping, the Research Department would make the most use of her abilities.

Protection and Enforcement: This essentially is covered by S.H.I.F.T. although S.H.I.F.T. is comparble to a SWAT unit. H.E.L.P. does have basic trained officers who can deal with low threat issues. S.H.I.F.T. intervenes when the risks are quite high. Note that this is both protection of Hyperhumans and the public from Hyperhumans who decide to abuse their gifts. Enforcement basically covers keeping Hyperhumans from abusing their abilities whether harmful or not.

[Mixtape Ghost N]

I can't wait to get things rolling. Which I assume will be soon.

[twave]

@Lord Wraith

Yeah, Research would be the direction she would be inclined to go for sure. And no doubt they would be interested in her ability as a whole.
