Realistic or Modern CODENAME : PANGEA - Omen of the End [OPEN - UPON SPECIAL REQUEST]

A L M O S

I've converted to red
CODENAME: PANGEA #567632 - Omen of the End

A few months ago Intel was passed on to MI6. It was not tortured out of anyone. Or bribed. It was not coerced or schemed out. A simple flash drive was left inside the bedside table of the previous British PM [Removed from office since - REASON: SUICIDE], informing him, and through him the British Intelligence Services - of CHIMERA[x].

Their message - [See us, and despair - We, The Omen of the End] - Direct quote from MI6-DOC_CHIMERA_#0003 [PAGE 3/1744]

Within three months of receiving this, the world has gone to shit, with CHIMERA claiming responsibility for these, among other things…

  • Active spies within the top Intelligence Agencies of the world (Mossad[x], ASIS[x], MSS[x], RAW[x], DGSE[x], BND[x], FSB[x], MI6[x]) have been revealed in lists freely shared on the DarkWeb - Noticeably absent from the list of agencies was the American CIA[x].
    • It took almost two months of threats of WAR against the USA from most of the world to prove that the CIA was not behind the leaks, damaging international trade and military relations beyond the point of any significant repair.
    • After the CIA managed to prove that they were not behind CHIMERA, their own agents were also revealed.
  • All Nuclear codes for all land and submarine-based missiles were released, as well as the locations, security codes and info on security/maintenance personnel (as well as their families and home addresses).
  • Financial records of all public officials, as well as the private emails, private meetings, private text messages, extramarital affairs, covered-up secrets - from more than 100 countries, were released online.
  • Pirate activity in the Northern Pacific and the Mid-American Bridge increased 1000+% as suddenly the already violent groups present were suddenly armed with Rifles, Grenade Launchers, STA Missiles, Heavy Artillery and various Seafaring Craft.
    • When interrogated they informed various Intelligence agencies that the weapons and resources were just para-dropped into the area every few days. At random, to random groups.
    • The source of these weapons seem to be American, Chinese and European - and was sold under military contract to American, Chinese and European markets. These countries deny the buying of the weapons but admit that they produced them.
  • Various small countries and villages in Northern Africa have been eradicated by military groups from all over the world, having been given information and orders that these housed powerful terrorists and members of CHIMERA. Upon inspection by the UN, it seems that almost all of these were false leads, and those few instances where actual terrorists were droned to death, they also found the bodies of various family members of military officials from other countries among the rubble. Further complicating the already heated international relations.
  • Etc. etc.



This is just an INTEREST CHECK - I am not yet done with what I want this to be. What I am planning for this - involves the following...

  • Each country/region/organization has 1 ‘Superspy/hero’ type figure.
    • (At the moment allowing for North America, Canada, South America(Choose 1), Britain, France, EU-REP(From any EU member), Middle East, Northen Africa, Southern Africa, India, South Korea, China, Japan, Russia, Australia)
  • Even the people/agencies who handled these spies don’t know the secrets these people have.
  • They are so far above the rest of the agents, that they have become bored with missions unless the mission has something to do with one of the other superspies.
  • They never killed each other because it is kinda like killing your best/only friend.
  • They all learn that they can’t trust their own countries anymore (Documents show that their handlers are all/mostly corrupt), nor their agencies, or anyone really.
  • The only people they can trust to do a good job/and have respect for, are the other spies.
  • They choose to meet up somewhere, and forget loyalties to countries, and together save the world.
Again, early stages - but I like the idea.

Each person will choose a speciality - what their spy is the best at. You will all talk to me via PM about what you guys do or know, and I will give you whatever you can find out - which you can use to try and solve the mystery (Which is already figured out).

I would also have a character because this seems to be too much fun to just play quartermaster - I choose SOUTHERN AFRICA: HUNTER

IF there is interest, let me know here. I will set up a CS (Will give you more info on how to make a character, for now just provide the country-speciality) and an OOC. INCLUDE What country you would like. What speciality you would like. Try and think about what that country is known for, and get your speciality from there. Explosives? Deep cover? Hacking? Interrogation? Assassination? Naturally, all of you will be able to do a little bit of each. But what made your char Legendary. Cliches are cliches for a reason. Try and put an interesting spin on it.

EXAMPLE - AUSTRALIA: TRACKING, SWITZERLAND: NEGOTIATING, SOUTH-KOREA: ROBOTICS, etc etc. (Use the cliche, but then find an interesting twist)

If you see someone already picked your preferred country, consider another. If you really want it - I will allow both to make CS and then choose the best one.

Japan - Gadgets

I'm going for that kind creator in spy movies who invents many strange and oddly specific gadgets.

I'm only tentatively interested because I'm not 100% sure what this will entail.
 
Cool - That sounds interesting. I have been working through it for a bit more.

SUMMARY: You are a spy. A superspy. For a country, you have now found to be corrupt, just as all countries have been proven to be corrupt. They, along with many other things, have been corrupted by a group who refer to themselves as CHIMERA. You can no longer depend on your own people for support. The only competent people you know, are the few other superspies in the world... who are not your friends, or allies, or even associates - but you know they are powerful, and you know they are in the same boat as you. So you all decide to come together, and use your various skills to take out CHIMERA... and then? Go back to working for governments? Against eachother? IDK... you decide what you do afterwards. But first... we need to save the world.

If anything is unclear let me know. This will most likely be a small group. Which is better for this kind of RP. In CS we will talk about what assets you have, and what intel you can get. Privately I will share info via PM with you all, and then you guys need to work together to solve the clues - and plan your missions.

That sounds like a lot of fun then. I hope this picks up.
 
Brilliant. We have another that might be Canadian - Assassin, which is just the most adorable thing. But that makes four. I think I will put up a CS, so that you guys can start thinking about the chars, I would hopefully like two more. But maybe with CS's going up - it might spark a bit more interest.

interested in china but undecided on a specialty just yet !!
Awesome. I am so glad more people are interested. If you are looking for inspiration, Look at the ones we already have and see if anything is missing. When I think of China I think of Trade and Logistics.

What about Courier - you move things people across international lines and beneath radars. A trafficker but who worked as spy for china, moving their secrets and allies.

Just an idea. It's open - don't just look the list. You can choose anything, just run it by me.
 
I think one of the biggest issues is its hard to think of something clever to associate with America. Like what spy specialty really screams America? America is all about American exceptionalism, which from a character standpoint might be fun to just have an extremely arrogant spy, but doesn't leave you with a lot of obvious options for a specialty I would say. You pretty much have free reigns to do anything (especially with how large and diverse the country is), so it makes it harder to think of something specific. At least that what I think.

That being said an American spy with like a cowboy aesthetic would be A+ imo
 
Perfect explanation - The American spy was cool maybe 50/60 years ago. But now it's such a 'business aesthetic' that it has become kinda boring.

still undecided on a specialty ): courier def sounds interesting but i dont really feel it fhjsdh i did some research and deep cover/infiltration might also be a relevant option for china? but i wasn't sure if that's similar to what masquerade is supposed to be ;;
oh and looking over the cs' are personalities not necessary?

China is also known for being bureaucratic and is still considered a communist country by some, an extension of that could lead to the idea that they micromanage things which could easily lead to a "tactician" sort of spy who specializes in gathering the necessary information and using the tools at hand to create a plan of action, relying less on personal skills and more about using the tools on hand to maximum capacity. (Although what kind of super spy would you be without a few skills to speak of for yourself)

I’ve taken this as a challenge to make the American the coolest spy.

So, I’ll take the American, specializing in scare tactics/interrogation. (I’ll be taking a lot of inspiration from old American Mobsters)
 
The CS is very limited because this is the 'very very limited' public/secret profile - I don't want you guys to make massive backstories, and likes and dislikes, and all that. Have a private idea of what your spy is ... And then explore that over the course of the game. Leave room to grow. These people don't really have time for lives outside of their work... What happens now, when suddenly they have a bunch of off time, and they have to work with people they only know as mutually/respected rivals.

That... Actually sounds kinda cool. I will add America to the list. And I think we are full now. That's enough. When everyone's CS is posted I Will close the RP.
 
Love the character High5ives High5ives - love the name. Picture is awesome! I am loving the images. Can't wait to see what the rest of you have to offer.

Can we say - Wednesday - as cutoff? I need to know who is in to set up the intro. And to know who is in, I need to know your CSs. Let me know via PM if ya can't make Wednesday deadline for CS.
 
Arrt Saunders Arrt Saunders - Nice. Seems like a vety cool group of guys. Can't wait to meet them... Lol

I do hope we get a few women. A bit of a sausage fest. Not that I mind. But often the world of spies is so full of dashing men, we forget the femme fatal.

Why thank you - let’s be honest though, all the character’s so far are, if one pardon’s the French, bloody awesome.
