I know these two drafts are rough but that's why I need help fine tuning the RP before I post it


LTD.


Starchild LTD. Is a privately held company founded by Jessica Robin Winchester 5 months ago using funds earned working for the International Space Agency to create a unique organization that seeks to employ people with Meta Talents in contracts that contain no aggressive use of power.

What does that mean?

Well it means that Starchild isn't a mercenary, law enforcement or security organization but instead is a group dedicated to the nonviolent use of their power in more positive aspects such as Construction, Rescue and Disaster Recovery. Sure like any good citizens if the members of Starchild witness a crime they may choose to intervene or not and in either case expect the support of it's members and corporate influence in maters public, private or legal.

They do not hunt criminals nor actively patrol with or support law enforcement as a member of Starchild. They do not engage in this as a group and any member who does must win a two thirds approval of the board to remain. If there are more than four votes on the subject of powers used in violence that member will be severed from connection with the corporation.

Hello people who thought they'd pop by for a peek

This is a proposal for an unusual Super Powered RP and primarily because of it's deviation from the standard Fight Club style. This RP will focus on a Group of Meta Humans who have either grown tired of combat or never had the inclination to engage in such activities.

It is set in a world were Meta began appearing about 1946 and made up 1 in 250,000,000 till 1958 when that number became 1 in 65,000,000 then once more in 1965 1 in 19,000,000.

This increase in number resulted in humanity growing more fearful of this new branch of their own race. This fear wasn't helped by the fact that many countries around the world began militarization of Meta within their boarders in the early 60s.

The world experienced several flash fire wars that involved clashes between beings capable of destruction on a large scale and threatened the safety of the world. It was because of these threats that the UN met and passed the Meta Human acts in 1969.

The Meta Human act views the use of Meta as an act of war comparable to nuclear weapons use and bans their use in military deployment. It also addresses the fact that among Meta are those who practice the use of their abilities for criminal intent and formed provisional command sectors in key positions around the globe to react to such threats.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

So this is a world where Meta are forced to either work for the UN Legion as Meta Enforcement officers or be considered criminals; or at least that's how it was till 1 year ago when a young Meta Female named Jessica Robin Winchester won a pivotal court case.

This case allowed Jesse to work outside of the accepted government controlled and violent atmosphere so long as her organization engaged in no activities considered in violation of the Meta crimes act.

She won her case even though much of the rest of humanity view her type as a threat to their existence primarily because of an on going association with the International Space Agency.

Drifter is a primary Elemental who's Magnetic power is off the charts and who's control of that same power beyond imagination. This is why she makes regular lifts of 30 tons or less of material to the growing space station in orbit. She was careful in the beginning to include in her service small countries that lacked the resources of larger countries to get into space. She also displayed a grasp of international politics by first making herself invaluable to the exploration of space before launching her case.

Since have made it public for others to help, that shouldn't be too difficult to avoid coming off like that.

@Mr Allen J@King Tai

Thanks but this is a working title; Wow, why'd that sound strange?

I need help doing a little fine tuning such as How super powers are controlled

To join Starchild Ltd. is to be thought of as protester of the Meta control acts which Jesse argued before the UN
Jesse is viewed strangely by the media as a maverick Meta Supremacist because she logically argued that as a Meta she is genetically superior to Homo Sapiens but that she also had rights equal to her parent species

You need a limiter for the powers or some law or something to that effect.

On there are limiters but those are for criminals and if you've never committed any crimes why should you be in one?

That was one of her arguments and because she waited till she helped several smaller first world to third world countries join space research and technology she won. (rumor - she threatened to go on strike and preform no farther lifts than those needed to evacuate personnel)

Possible, mild interest.

I have a suggestion, how about a rival company that got a deal of getting mets human in a sort of fight club tv show for all the plebs to watch like a sport, which furthers the culture of meta humans being nothing but destructive and violent savages. What better way to deal with that way if thinking then to have said savages fight to the death for entertainment.

In this Reality the Government runs the League and Meta are basically in their civil rights phase. They have the Illusion of Freedom but they are not or were not till Jesse found the Leverage to get what she wants. Her court case set persistent.

Abolished Controls
Meta are free to travel internationally without seeking special permission to do so from the Meta Registration board

Meta may use their powers outside of league control in civilian application

Meta may buy, lease or rent a domicile without gaining Meta Registration board permission

Basically you come up with the type of power and think up how you want to play them trying to deal with prejudice and the nonviolent use of their powers.

Jesse was trained in a secret government project to study Meta and the military application of their abilities, it's where she developed her philosophy and world view.

I wouldn't be surprised to see some of those joining Starchild coming from similar backgrounds

Here's Jesse to look at, I may shift her age up to 21




Age :19

Sex :Female

Nationality :British

OFFENSIVE : Magnetism

DEFENSIVE : Shield Generation

MOVEMENT : Flight

PHYSCIAL ENHANCEMENT : Spatial Awareness

Bio : Jessie/Drifter is the only child of Major Amelia Winchester father unknown.

Born three months after her mother's return from a two year assignment to the International Space Station Jessica strangely has no shared DNA with any of her mother's male crew members. This has lead some to speculate she is the result of an artificial insemination experiment carried out by either UKSA or a joint UKSA/NASA but neither government has any records of such an experiment.

Jess's birth was the cause of her mother's early retirement from the RAF and suspicion of collusion with unknown entities which resulted in her suicide when Jessica was 5 years old.

Taken into custody an made a ward of the state the tragic Orphan might have simply faded into obscurity had she not begun to display unusual abilities around her 10th birthday. Once more the young girl found herself at the center of curiosity and speculation as she was whisked away from public view and sent to a facility in the Falkland islands.

For the first three years Jessie cooperated her handlers till like most adolescents she began to rebel against restrictive authority both actual and perceived. Her rebellion began as simple refusal to cooperate with experiments and schooling which frustrated the scientists and her handlers; little did they know that they'd look back fondly on those days.

By her 15th birthday Jessica had enough of her unjust confinement where she felt alone and isolated by her condition. Using her abilities which her handlers had spent years defining then training she escaped the island and was spotted on a beach in Rio two weeks later but disappeared before she could be brought back. It was a full 6 months before Jessica was finally discovered again and this time convinced to at least cooperate with Her Majesty's government.

When the League discovered that the UK had a secret research project to study Meta sapiens and their prime specimen was codenamed Drifter (Jessica) they demanded her immeadiate surrender. (Under international agreement the United Kingdom had signed the treaty of Baltimore which forbade the militarization of Meta types outside of UN control and Jessica was declared an attempt at violation of that treaty.)

Once under League control Jessica found herself lied to constantly by the powers that be who told her she was free all the while controling her life in nearly the same manner as she'd experinced on Lively Island. She was forced to adhere with a tight schedule and brutal authority her complaints falling on deaf ears and while still techinically a minor; at best she was a conscript and worst a slave.

Her condition was unacceptible to her so she began research for other options and building both a logical and legal argument. She knew she was about to overturn the Apple cart and that the powers that be wouldn't make it easy for her unless she found some form of leverage; that's when she was approached by the International Space Agency and asked to help perform high altitude tests for them.

After observing how thrilled the Squints at ISA were with not only the test results but with how much money she'd saved them by going around the need for an expensive and risky launch Jesse saw a chance to ingriatiate herself to an International Agency, the Public and the countries to small to be able to afford a berth in the emerging space technology race going on at that time.

No one saw her reseach into Public Relations as a threat of the Statusquo in fact they helped her by mentoring her to an older and more experinced Meta who preformed the function for her branch of the League hoping that in the future they could use her in that same capasity. Perhaps they would have never approved of her outside training if they'd considered aplying military stratgy to a PR move was her eventual goal.

Most thought she'd become enamored of the spotlight and was simply seeking glory and admiration to bask in till she sprang her trap during an interview by questioning how she and others like her were treated like criminals in reality. She spilled the ugly secret of her virtual kiddnapping and how she'd been treated like a lab rat and a weapons system when she was only 10 years old. The Public at that time had developed a love for Jesse both locally and Internationally for her expansion of the space program and how when she was on patrol in her assigned city she'd stop and change tires on cars or tow them off the highway if they were broken down.

They had thought her extra ordinary work (bonus work that brought in more money than her League pay) was like other Meta's an attempt at gathering wealth to buy nice things and roll like a big dog; they never suspected she was saving money to hire lawyers and a PR firm to represent her case in International court






I haven't detailed her powers yet

or the CS layout this is a Rough
