July 8th, 2029, about seven years after the First Paranormal War, humanity thought it was all over.  That notion was immediately proven wrong.  It became apparent that there were different paranormal factions.  This time, the paranormal threat originates from our very backyard in the Earth’s oceans!  A new evolution of evil finally showed itself after many cruise liners, naval ships, and even commerce transports sunk to the bottom in matter of hours!  The economy was threatened and without access to the seas, civilization would become strained!  With the new paranormal threat brought to the attention of the UN, it was finally time to call upon the right men and women for the job.  Mankind must once again band together to fight them and to turn the tables on the Second Paranormal War!

As GM, I present to you...ParaCom: Horror under the Sea!

USEFUL RP NEWS AND NOTES: 

*Those who sign up before official RP posts: automatically promoted to Squaddie. 

*Derpestein is our co-GM.  His role is ported to the sequel from last times. 

*Remember: ANYONE CAN DIE!

*The RP will still be open for new sign ups after the official posts are deployed.

*Veteran bonus: Any previous player of ParaCom: Adversary Uncertain or its expansion can port any of their surviving characters here.  As a reward, they’ll be a colonel.

*All reviewed and approved CS's go to the Characters tab.  Everyone else post your CS in the OOC so the GM and/or co-GM can review it.
________________________________________
Before we start, I'll post official rules so we can all enjoy the RP.

1.) No power gaming or "god modding" because we want a modicum of logic.
2.) Game play and story will be integrated, so let's not try to break either one.
3.) No auto-hitting or called hits so we can be fair. This describes a fighting action whereby a character is attacking another character and ASSUMES to have hit them without the other characters response being considered.
4.) Have fun during the RP!
5.) Combat will also be similar to the XCOM games with also a dice system. As a GM, I will use tons of mathematics to decide outcomes.
