We have an arcane divisions within Scorpio that deals with the mystical/extraordinary in a BPRD (hellboy) sort of manner. I'll even share our super secret new page we're working on. (We're rebuilding our Division pages right now). |

S.C.O.R.P.I.O. Arcane-Ops
Arcane-Ops is also tied with the Psi-Ops group as an overall Paranormal unit. We're actually doing an story right now for Halloween.
Well the character I am going for is a paranormal investigaor (not really ghosts, maybe something LIKE ghosts) he wears the typical black trenchcoat, sunglasses, etc
He actually does have a power, he has been chosen by Sir Lancelots sword and shield, He was chosen because of his potential as a hero.

Well the Arcane Division for Scorpio deals with all sorts of things from ancient deities, to smaller paranormal events, to spirits, the undead, etc. The event we're running right now involves Baron Samedi. Mostly they're a variety of people with experience in the occult.|

Some of them are normal people, like Danger St. Clair who is an adventure of sorts (think Indiana Jones). Some have powers like Nick Myrddin. Others are entities in and of themselves like Brou who I believe is a construct created by a girl in Croatoa, or Callista who is the avatar of an ancient god.
Its a fun part of the group, I'll admit Spec-Ops and my rifle toting military chick are fun, but I really enjoy making story lines for the paranormal stuff.
how about a tech based group.
another one of my main I wanna RP with is name Simman
I'm gonna copy/paste his bio
A 22 year old ex-EMT and self proclaimed geek. living in a smalltown outside Pittsburgh PA, USA who is tired of the medical field. He had a car wreck a year ago and now is unable to get work on an ambulance, or anything that involves driving, if he wanted to. Currently in his life the only bright side is he is in school for programming computers, something he has always wante to do.
He lives at home and is currently working in a nursing home, a job he hates, in a field he hates. One day after coming home from work after having a day that didn't go so well he sat down and watched tv. a knock came on the door and when he answers, there was nobody there, just a package.
When he opened the package all that was there was a disc. Being bored and curious he put the CD into his computer, against his better judgment, and a program opens up. A large sign flashes on the screen and says,
"WELCOME TO SIMMAN
PLEASE PUT ON ASSOCIATED HEADSET"
He followed the instructions and came to a screen asking him to load Simman. A bright red beam flashes on and the words "Simulation on" flash in red on the screen. There is a white flash and a city appears on his screen. He instantly recognizes the statues and buildings from the news. He moves the character he can only assume is Simman around on the screen, amazed at how well his crappy 4 year old computer is rendering the world. It slowly begin to dawn on him that this might just not be a game, The people are moving in ways no game could render and it almost looks like he looking througha very advanced camera. He played around for a bit before getting tired and logging off.
After he logegd off for the first time a Shadowed figure loaded onto the screen.
"Dear user,
You have been chosen to run the latest edition of Simman, a computer program written in advanced computer code that allows it to interact with the real world via Hard Light Hologram. It has the ability to harden itself giving it a sort of faux-invulnerabilty useful for protecting others. It also has the ability to make itself light as air and fly. It can combine these two abilities and say harden its hands to hit an enemy while hovering. It can also interact with any computer system and download, decode, and translate it in a matter of seconds.
Please be aware that if you choose to accept this responsibilty you accept the dangers that go with it. There are people looking for this program using twisted version of a piece of code stolen from me.
I will be in touch.
Sincerely the Programmer."
the character is basically a mix of Tron , using the character being controlled by a user. Arnold Rimmer from red dwarf, being a hard light hologram. He is also slightly based on vision, even though he is a hardlight program he can change his density. He can also interact witn any computer system.
Through the use of Simman, the character eventually comes to have a greater feeling of self worth and renewed respect for humanity.
He goes onto become a programmer and and is eventually recruited to help create the next generation fo Simman, thus becoming the next Programmer.
I like the depth of the character, he is worth more than he believes, but he is not depressed, just not as happy as he could be, he has a natural charsima and is cute, but has no social life because of low self-esteem (even when people tell him nice things he tends to shrug it off as them being nice)
The biggest problem I have with this character is I can't seem to figure out how to put that element of danger in the story. There is no real problem when you don't have to worry about getting hurt because your thousands of miles away behind a computer.

Thunder is good, thunder is impressive, but lightning does the work.
I've been posting this a lot lately, so apologies to others who have seen this same post from me in other threads.
I have a super-science group, that role plays each weekend. We have a basic base, with all the core functions (teleporters, work benches).
However, we're really small (only five active players), and we are also work-nuts, so we tend to only play on weekends.
So, you'll probably find better groups out there. Still, I can at least help you along in finding a place to settle in and RP. My global is @Ravyna, feel free to add it to your global list and I'll gladly help you as much as I can with RP.
More info on the actual group here (click it):
I'm interested in RPing something likie fringe/xfile/warehouse etc.
