Ari Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 With the relatively recent Hotzone incident in mind, not to mention its instigator: Mister Motley, and several other threads with the theme of people attempting to access and exploit the 'source' of super-powers, it strikes me as sensible to explore this a little more. Seeing as SHADOW seemed to be involved with the majority of these cases, I decided it might work best to have its notorious terrorist group front organization as the antagonists of such a thread. What: An assault on an undersea OVERTHROW base off the eastern coast of Russia. Director Powers of A.E.G.I.S.has received word from his agents about a possible location of the infamous creator of the Proteus mutagen: an old and hitherto-unknown research facility off the eastern coast of Russia, built during the Cold War and recently taken hostage by an old submarine commandeered by the terrorist faction, who are haranguing the Russian government with their usual list of ridiculous demands. Seizing this opportunity, he has sent out word to a small number of superheroes, asking for their help in a 'delicate and dangerous mission'. With them and the assistance of the Russian hero Protonik(Aleksander Solokov), he plans to uncover whether the recent attacks have anything resembling a common thread, and forestall any attacks like the Proteus incident. Freeing the captive scientists Who: 3-5 players. Preferably ones with some experience in lands outside America. PL: 9-12 Link to comment
Raveled Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I don't think OVERTHROW has underwater bases. They're more the 'bomb in a bus' type, IIRC. Link to comment
Ari Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 An excellent point. I'll edit that to make it more in line with their described tendencies. Link to comment
Raveled Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Well if it's a European adventure with some intrigue and skullduggery thrown in, Starlight works perfectly for it. Link to comment
KnightDisciple Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Gabriel is a native-born Irishman dating a native-born Russian woman who works for UNISON at the Freedom League. This seems right up his alley, including the "delicate situation" part. Link to comment
TheAbsurdist Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 So if it is a European adventure, may Asad wear a tux? Link to comment
Raveled Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 So if it is a European adventure, may Asad wear a tux? "Call me Misri. Amir ibn Jafar ibn Abd al-Aziz al-Misri. Or, you know, Asad." Link to comment
Azuth65 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I'd like to toss Wisp or Silver Spider in if there's room. Link to comment
Tiffany Korta Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 If you still have a slot free I'd like to throw YB in. It would be nice to have something nearer to home. Link to comment
Ari Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 Alright, so that's: Asad Gabriel Starlight Silver Spider/Wisp Young Britannia. Looks good! Up to you which to use, Azuth. Personally I'd prefer the Spider. Fair warning: I'm not going to start it for a little bit, need to work out a few things first! Link to comment
Azuth65 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 If you'd rather have the Spider, an arachnid you shall have. Link to comment
