Isn't Michael coming into this team completely off the cuff though?

"I see." Talia remained where she stood near Jones, rocking lightly along the bottom of her feet. Phasing out of the conversation briefly, she wrapped her mind into the flows of energy throughout the building. The resulting psychic euphoria washed over her like a waterfall, drenching her telepathic senses. Almost as soon as reaching the peak of her trance, she returned to focus on the conference room. Rubbing her eyes, and pinching the bridge of her nose to relieve the feeling of pressure through her head, she heaved a deep breath.
"For starters," she said. "Special Agent Talia LeCroix. If I haven't explained it well enough thus far, I'm what you might call a psychic. My abilities allow me to sense energies and commune with the minds of others; to some degree, I can get visions of events to come but... it's inconsistent, and vague at best, so I wouldn't rely heavily on it if I were you... I can't really even use it of my own accord.

"As for the matter at hand: I've just given a precursory feel of the building. As I'm sure you can imagine, a facility that hosts a population of supernatural beings and artifacts such as ours makes it difficult to sense much from afar. The items you've mentioned, compared to creatures and people that housed here, emit more of a trace of energy. Vampire blood on its own, for example, would provide a minimal source of detectable energy compared to a complete vampire. A similar principle can be applied to dragon scales.

"The Undying Flower may well be the easiest for me to sense off if its own emission. The silver chains should also be feasible for my senses. As for the others, it may be easier for someone with more traditional senses to seek them." She paused quickly to draw another breath before adding, "however, if my opinion on this matter is of an validity, I would suggest seeing whether or not any of our resident vampire, or related kin, would be willing to donate blood to aid our cause."

"Perhaps, Mr. Jones," Talia spoke, breaking a long silence in her part, "you should take a moment to familiarize yourself with the capabilities of your team members. That is, if you're to be assuming the lead." She circled around the room, stopping near the door. "It was to my misfortune that I was delayed in my arrival to this briefing. So I will require filling in on what it is that we are searching for. However, if any of these artifacts emit even the faintest of energy, that is, the paranormal sense, then I should be able to roughly discern their locations. From what I have been present for, it would seem that they should be of supernatural potency; therefore, I should be able to point a team in the right direction."

Is PLX-395 still around, AllHollowsEve hasn't been on in a long time. I wanted to partner him with Miss. LeCroix and Ashly. science, magic, and psychic.

@Illiren

As it happens, when I was considering that character, I was thinking of the same sort of grouping; advanced alien technology + Talia's telepathic power = heckin' good psychic.

On a different note, who's actually supposed to be the team leader among the characters?

The Bureau of Supernatural Affairs

I can still come around. Just been a rough few weeks at work. I've been going in earlier than I used to (and, thus far, staying roughly 30-45 minutes later).

The Bureau of Supernatural Affairs

@Wayward What do you mean? We don't have that many people.

@KatherinWinter

It just feels like we've got a lot of people, when looking at the character tab at least.

The Bureau of Supernatural Affairs

This team is becoming pretty bloated in terms of numbers.

Talia edged a path around the conference room, finally situating herself before the elder. The man was getting increasingly frustrated with the team; understandably so too, as none them seemed willing or able to coordinate their efforts as a whole unit. Two had apparently departed in spite of orders to remain in the room until everyone had been dispatched to the task at hand. Those that remained, were proving either hotheaded, unenthusiastic, or downright arrogant. Calmly, Talia leaned in towards Alyssa, whispering. "They've got the chemistry of a rock and a glass window. I could feel the tension from downstairs.

"Perhaps," she continued, more loudly, and to those that were still in the room, "we should start with me, as per request, locating our two rogue agents. They can't have gone too far. Of what species are they? Knowing that much should make finding them less trouble."

Most like everyone will be able to lead at some point since they all have different skills. But someone needs to do something.

@KatherinWinter

I'm figuring I'll have Talia take some charge over the situation. But my post will have to wait until morning (IRL).

The Bureau of Supernatural Affairs

I mean, Talia's power set would make her pretty well-suited for a leadership role...
