Based on a series of stories I wrote and posted on another forum: [url=http://forum.darkness.com/topic/117866-the-power-within/]The place I posted them.[/url] A summary for those that don't want to read them: We work for the Bureau of Paranormal Investigation. It is a division of the FBI that deals with cases involving Otherkin (non-human intelligent lifeforms) and paranormal abilities. Paranormal abilities generally come in sets. Most species only have a few possible sets, but humans have over a hundred different possible sets and more are discovered every year. Some say it is because, by some estimates, 90% of the people on the planet are all or part non-human. Some say it is because humans have a gift unlike any other race: adaptability. Power sets are groups of powers, usually four, that follow a common theme, like fire, or telekinesis, or stunning. They usually contain a offensive power, a defensive power, and a tactical power, plus one more that could be any of those. Genetics determines what power sets you might have, with part-otherkin possibly having the power sets of that race or similar human ones, and your personality determines which of the possible ones you actually get. There are also rogue powers, which are powers from other possible power sets that you get because nothing in your power set can help you. Your brain unlocks it out of desperation. When powers first unlock, you only get one from the set, and it is usually weak. You unlock more, and they get stronger, as you use them. They are ranked from class 1, being barely capable of doing it, to class 10, the theoretical limit of human abilities. Powers are based on energy, with how good the energy pattern is and the amount of energy you put into it being what determines its class. This would essentially work by me playing the Director of the BPI office we work at, as well as a rookie agent. The Director would give you missions and tell you about crimes in the area. You can work with a partner or he can assign someone to work with you on a case-by-case basis. Hopefully this will mean that we don't get stuck if someone doesn't show up. I'll add all of the species I've written in so far, but this doesn't have to follow the other story. CS: Name: Sex: Age: Species: Appearance: Powerset: Rogue powers?: Personality: History: [hider=Example] Name: Director Harold Levant Sex: Male Age: 57 Species: Human/Demigod Appearance: [img=http://www.stlmag.com/downloads/184343/download/FBI-cox.jpg?cb=27965ec46fc35b4f55ebeb3670805017] Some grey hair on the sides of his head, but well-built and muscular for his age. Powerset: Helios Warrior Solar flare: Produces a beam of yellow plasma. Class 9.2 Corona: Produces a magnetoplasmic sphere around him. Great against energy attacks, fair against physical attacks. Class 8.6 Blinding light: Bright light comes from his hand or body, blinding and/or heating everything it touches. Class 8.2 Ion storm: charges the air around him, disrupting or destroying electronics in the area. Class 7.1 Rogue powers: Photosynthesis: Absorb light and convert it to energy. Personality: Dedicated to the job. Often sleeps at the office because he worked so late. History: Like many Demigods he was raised by a single parent. When he was a young adult he was arrested by the BPI for the misuse of his powers, but the details of the charges have been hidden from most agents. He ended up helping them take down an Otherkin criminal organization and then joined permanently. He rose through the ranks and when, five years ago, the director of this branch died, he was offered the position. He accepted, and has been running the place sense, including during many of his vacation days.
