Supernatural Investigation and Nullification: Agents of SIN (X Files-ish RP)

[Kaithas]

"Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests, I'm pleased to welcome you to the Bureau of Supernatural Investigation and Nullification. Since our inception by UN charter in 1947, we've had the sole, secret duty of training and commanding operatives to inquire into apparent supernatural activities and eliminate them, if need be. Your presence at this induction and awards ceremony shows your dedication to the ideals of our organization, whether by achieving high enough marks to pass initiation or your desire to go above and beyond in the field of duty.

It is my greatest honor to command you... As Agents of SIN."

-Eric Lawson, Bureau Director.

So essentially, this is going to be about agents of a federal agency who are in charge of "Investigating and Nullifying" supernatural and extraterrestrial threats, all while maintaining secrecy. Anyone interested? Last time I made this RPG it was really fun until someone ruined it with a Mary Sue char and species, but... I'm still willing to allow players to be extraterrestrial agents and even play as threats.

[Turboshitter]

I'm interested.

[Lord Wyron]

This looks like an interesting concept! Kinda like SCP or something :P I'll be keeping my eye on this, see what develops :)

EDIT: An idea for a potential character would basically be doing what the 2008 version of Day The Earth Stood Still did, make an alien who adopts a human body and remains undercover assisting SIN in dealing with other supernatural/extraterrestrial threats. Still debating whether I'd give him technopathic abilities or not.

[Mach2]

Much intrigue. :3

Count me as a tentative probably.

[Kaithas]

Awesome to see such quick interest! I'm working on the profile form now so you can get profiles underway while I work on opening posts and whatnot.

@Ghost Shadow: Sounds cool! I'll have to see it actualized, but it sounds interesting.

[Kaithas]

Name: If your name is Vernithrax the Undomitable you may want to come up with a human name.
Appearance: What you look like! Pictures and/or descriptions acceptable.
Agent Codename: Agent <insert generic last name or appropriate moniker here>
Gender: Might not be applicable for aliens/ghosts.
Species: Be it human, alien, or some manner of supernatural being, that goes here. I'm not accepting species that are specific to a single other universe. For example, your own version of grey aliens would be acceptable, but a Saiyan or Kryptonian would not be. I would really prefer human chars, at least at the beginning, but I'll accept aliens.
Age: Self explanatory.
Years in SIN: SIN does not use child soldiers, at least not of the human variety. If your years in SIN would put you below 18 when you joined, you're not going to get approved unless a reaaaaaaally good reason is placed in your bio. That being said, aliens or supernatural beings might have faster maturity rates. Additionally, this number cannot be used to say you've been in SIN since before 1947, because that was the date of its inception.
Equipment: Most SIN equipment is built for human use, and as such is not quite as compatible with alien physiology. Standard gear includes a rifle that fires sonic pulses, a nine millimeter pistol, and a pack of syringes containing serum that can cure critical wounds in five minutes if injected directly into the cut. This serum has varying effects on alien anatomy. Specific agents may have other gear issued to them, dependent on mission or skill.
Abilities/Powers: Note, some aliens have these, humans as a whole do not. Not now. Maybe later. Who knows what might happen on a mission... For humans, just put Genetic Adaptability here. You'll see why as time goes on.
Personality:
Biography:

BEGIN COMPENDIUM ENTRY_
Species Application:
Name: Species name.
Creator: Bro, give yourself props! You added to the lore of the universe. Take credit for it! Your username goes here.
Biology: Powers, physiology, etc. Be somewhat detailed, but I'll fill in any gaps. Just keep in mind that my Summer Program had a reason for nicknaming me Satan.
Appearance: What you SEE when looking at an average member of the species.
Culture: Optional, but if you plan on referencing a lot of your alien's culture in your backstory I'd suggest making a few notes here.
History: Same dealio as Culture.

All (approved) species applications will be added to a post in the Character section of the RPG topic as they're approved, and I'll make a few of my own.

But yeah. Have fun with the applications! If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to ask.

[NuttsnBolts]

May keep an eye out for this one.

[Plank Sinatra]

Sure, interested.

[NuttsnBolts]

Couple of questions (was late last night when I saw it so I msg and subbed before sleeping)
Did you want us to generate an application form/character sheet now or when you get the ooc up?
If I was looking at more of a supernatural style of being rather than alien, would you be talking about werewolves style of things?
Branching off from that, if they appear human I assume they would have to transform somehow. (Much like MIB where people walk around in Edgar suits)
Weapons... realistic, technology based and supernatural design. You have any rough preferences on what you would like?

Just trying to guide my inspiration. :)

[Kaithas]

I'd suggest starting now if you want to play as soon as possible after I get the OOC done.

Supernatural chars are okay, but I have a terrible history with werewolves. Just so you know.

One too many hintings of bad things happening ruined my best RP of all time.

Alien agents are not common in SIN, but those that are generally do have a cloaking device of some sort.

Weapons: Modern technology is permissible, almost all SIN weapons are reverse engineered alien tech. Most of SIN's high ranking officials believe tampering with the occult and forces not understood is a bad idea.

[NuttsnBolts]

That's all good. Yeah I'd hate to think that I'd accidentally undermined any GM's vision so I'll usually always ask first, even if it's trivial.

Thanks for the reply.

[Virani]

Interested

[DizzyRenegade]

Interested~

[Kaithas]

Sweet! I'm working on the OOC, should be finished over the weekend!

[Sophrus]

I think I'll be following this one. It looks fun

[Crimson Raven]

Interested, I'll be crunching out a character sheet some time in the future.

One question- how about an alien-tech enhanced human I.e. a Cyborg?
