JR19759KeymasterThe World International Law Divison (W.I.L.D) was put in place to observe the worlds growing superhuman population and ensure the safety of the people in the face of any threat that might occur from this new section of humanity. One thing that soon became obvious after the foundation of W.I.L.D was that they would not only have to deal with superhuman threats but supernatural ones as well, something which requires far more specialised knowledge than normal operations. So the Supernatural Response And Containment Unit (SRC) was set up, bringing on board some of the most pre-eminent supernatural experts, alongside a small group of operatives with first hand experiance of the supernatural.
Current Operatives:
LtR: Tracy Samuels (Wolf-Hunter), Victoria Lewis (Nightwatch), Azaria Thomas (Demon Girl), Gabriel L’Angelo (Gabriel), Alex Finch (Warlock)

May 17, 2017 at 2:19 pm #145350
JR19759KeymasterCheers guys.
Anyways…SRC Report
Name: Azaria Thomas
Codename: Demon Girl
Age: 25
Height: 5.4ft (human)/ 5.9ft (demon inc’ horns)
Weight: 135lbs (human)/ 150lbs (demon)
Bio: A half-demon, fathered by a lesser demon driven from hell to the human world, Ms. Thomas has the ability to switch between her human form and her demon form. When in her demon form she becomes far stronger, faster and more agile than any normal human and gains the ability to control fire (though she cannot generate it on her own). Her demon form can also summon the hellsword Baphomet (named after the demon whose horn it was hewn from), a powerful weapon embued with demonic energy. She discovered her transformation as a teen, shortly after her father disappeared (presumably returning to hell, either by his own free will or under duress) and has been fighting against those who would use hells power for their own ends, as well as demonic entities looking to establish themselves in the human world, ever since. Due to her experiance and leadership qualities, she was the first candidate approached to become an SRC operative and was made field team leader.
Relationships:
Victoria Lewis: Ms. Thomas seems to hold Ms. Lewis in some regard. Taking in the young vampire and training her in combat skills when Ms. Lewis first joined the SRC, they have developed a strong bond.
Gabriel L’Angelo: As one might expect, the half-demon Ms. Thomas and the angel Mr. L’Angelo do not get on. He often outright refuses to acknowledge her as team leader or follow her orders, which she finds immensly frustrating. The two have come to blows in the past, though no clear winner emerged and it took magical intervention from Mr. Finch to end their fight.
Alex Finch: Ms. Thomas quickly developed a strong distaste for Mr. FInch’s lazy attitude and is not shy of expressing it. He, in turn, sees her as overly bossy and is only slightly more cooperative than Mr. L’Angelo, sometimes even refusing to work with her.
Tracy Samuels: Seen as they were friends and partners before even joining the SRC, Ms. Thomas and Ms. Samuels have probably the strongest relationship of the team. They trust each other implicitly and make the best team when on operations, rarely needing to rely on verbal communications whilst in action, such is their understanding of each others methods.Attachments:

JR19759KeymasterSRC Report
Name: Victoria Lewis
Codename: Nightwatch
Age: 19
Height: 5.5ft
Weight: 115lbs
Bio: One of the 0.000001% of the worlds population born with psychic abilities (colloquially known as Espurs), Ms. Lewis has strong psychic powers, measuring a level 3 of 6 on the Harrison Scale, she is able to lift objects around twice her body weight telekinetically as well as having some limited empathic and persuasive abilities. However, her experiance of the supernatural does not come from her psychic abilities, but rather the fact that she is also a vampire, having been biten when she was 16 years old. Normally, a person afflicted with vampirism would lose their mind to the bloodlust the condition causes, but Ms. Lewis’ powers seem to counteract the psychological effects of the virus. That is not to say that the virus hasn’t manifested its self in other ways. As with all vampires she suffers greatly from a high sensitivity to UV rays and has severe reactions to certain chemicals contained in the Allium genus of plant (the family containing Onions and Garlic). She is also unable to digest anything other than raw meat (meaning she requires a special menu and seperation from any vegitarian members of staff at meal times) and her eye pigment has changed from its natural brown to a crimson red, a trait common in vampires. Much like Ms. Samuels, Ms. Lewis is self-professedly terrified of losing control of her condition and hurting others, a fact she outwardly hides in a fairly convincing manner by being cheerful and friendly to anyone she meets (a fact that has made her pretty much universally adored in the facility).
Relationships:
Azaria Thomas: Ms. Lewis and Ms. Thomas have quite a strong relationship since Ms. Lewis joined the Unit. Ms. Thomas took it upon herself to train Ms. Lewis, who had pratically no combat experiance coming into the organisation, and the half-demon has become somewhat protective of the young vampire.
Gabriel L’Angelo: Ms. Lewis seems to be one of the few people amongst the SRC that Mr. L’Angelo doesn’t have a problem with and she has apparently managed to garner a certain amount of symmpathy from him concerning her condition. On her end, she does appear quite fascinated by the “angel” (especially his wings) and he is obviously very pleased to have such attention.
Alex Finch: Ms. Lewis is one of the few members of the SRC who has any time for Mr. Finch’s attitude and demenor and seems to be the best at getting him to take his role seriously (though she will not confirm whether or not she uses her psychic abilities to do so).
Tracy Samuels: Considering the simularity in their conditions and their shared fear of losing themselves to “the beast within”, Ms. Lewis and Ms. Samuels have increadible empathy for each other. Ms. Lewis looks up to Ms. Samuels as a role model on how to overcome a supernatural affliction.Attachments:

JR19759KeymasterSRC Report
Name: Gabriel L’Angelo
Codename: None (Insists on being referred too only by his first name)
Age: [Unknown]
Height: 6.0ft
Weight: 162lbs
Bio: Mr. L’Angelo is somewhat of an enigma. He claims to be the Archangel Gabriel of Abrahamic religious origin and with his wings (which he can conceal on his arms in the form of a tattoo when not in the confines of the SRC base) and greater than human strength, speed, endurance and healing capabilities, it is hard to argue otherwise. However, there is little tangible concrete proof to back up his story, so it could be the case that he is just a mutate with delusions of granduer to match his abilities. Either way, his skill set and knowledge base make his a useful asset to the operation, he has extensive knowledge of supernatural phenomina pertaining to the afterlife (ghosts, poltergeists, zombies and demons to name a few) alongside his fluency in 9 different known languages (English, French, Italina, German, Spanish, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic and Latin) as well as some languages that he claims to be of either ancient or angelic origin, although there is no way to know for sure. But to complement his remarkable skillset, Mr. L’Angelo also has a rather obnoxious personality. He condems anything that does not agree with his world veiw (which includes two of his team-mates) and he has a way of annoying those who do not share his faith, even if he does mean well.
Relationships:
Azaria Thomas & Alex Finch: Mr. L’Angelo’s relationships with his team-mates can be divided into two categories, those he sees as “beyond salvation” and those he deems saveable. Ms. Thomas and Mr. Finch fall into the former category, seen as they are a half-demon and a magic user respectively and are as such seen as sinful. This proves especially frustrating when it comes to Ms. Thomas, who finds it very hard to perform her team leader role when one of her team members will outright ignore her and follow his own plans, whether they are viable or not. The two often butt heads over trivial matters, something which might naturally be expected if it weren’t for the fact they are meant to be working towards the same goal. As for Mr. L’Angelo and Mr. Finch, they have a somewhat antagonistic relationship due to their conflicting attitudes, but generally try to keep out of each others way.
Victoria Lewis & Tracy Samuels: As for his other team-mates, Mr. L’Angelo sees their conditions as being “not their fault” and, as such, is less antagonistic towards them. Ms. Samuels tends to avoid interaction with him whenever possible but there are no outward signs of any problems or conflict between the two, outside of Ms. Samuels distaste for Mr. L’Angelo’s treatment of Ms. Thomas. With Ms. Lewis however, Mr. L’Angelo appears to have a somewhat friendly relationship, though it should be noted that Ms. Lewis does not seem to be capable of having personal conflict with anyone. Ms. Lewis is apparently quite fascinated by the angel and he quite obviously enjoys the attention.Attachments:

JR19759KeymasterSRC Report
Name: Alexander Finch
Codename: Warlock
Age: 26
Height: 6.1ft
Weight: 165lbs
Bio: Mr. Finch comes from a family with enormous magical potential, his father being a stage magician turned sorcerer and his mother being descended from a branch of the Salem witches, so it should come as no surprise that Mr. Finch displays exceptional talent in the fields of spellcasting and the arcane. Tutored practically since birth in all manners of magic and mysticism, he has developed a somewhat of a lackadasical attitude towards his talents, both as a form of rebellion and a means of coping with the obviously immense pressure of the expectations thrust upon him. Though his talent is undeniable, and often indespensable, his indifferance is a source of concern, both within the team and from SRC management.
Relationships:
Azaria Thomas: As field-team leader, Ms. Thomas is more often than not the harshest towards Mr. Finch because of his attitude. Their dislike is evident and they rarely work together, which is somewhat of a problem considering that they are the two most useful operatives in the event of demonic summoning (one of the more regular call outs for the field team).
Victoria Lewis: Ms. Lewis appears to have a capacity to get along with almost all members of the SRC Team, be they operatives or staff members, and Mr. Finch is no exception. She seems the best at tolerating his indolent attitude and is usually the best at rousing him to action (though whether that is through use of her abilities or not is something that she will not clarify).
Gabriel L’Angelo: As with most of his other team-mates, Mr. Finch and Mr. L’Angelo have a strained relationship. They have a noticable amount in common, specifically both have professed pressure of expectations upon them from outside sources, but the differences in their methods of dealing with this pressure are where the conflict lies. It also doesn’t help that Mr. L’Angelo is vehemently against magic, whilst Mr. Finch is sceptical of the veracity of his team-mates angelic origins in response.
Tracy Samuels: Much like his relationship with Ms. Thomas, Mr. Finch has a less than warm relationship with Ms. Samuels. They cooperate well enough, but a noticable difference in attitudes prevents them from working together as fluidly as might be hoped.Attachments:

JR19759KeymasterSRC Report
Name: Tracy Samuels
Codename: Wolf-Hunter
Age: 23
Height: 5.8ft (human)/ 6.5- 7ft approx (Werewolf)
Weight: 138lbs (human)/ 220- 230lbs approx (Werewolf)
Bio: An expert in hunting and exterminating large beastial cryptozoological creatures (most often Werewolves, but also including other large game such as Wendigos, Swamp Monsters and Ghouls), Ms. Samuels performs her duties in a calm and collected manner, with an impressive success rate. Of Native American descent, she first became a werewolf after being tricked and bitten by a (now former) boyfriend on a first date. Apparently wishing to build his own harem of female werewolves to consolodate his leadership of the local pack, the Werewolf was scared off by a local wolf-hunter (as those who hunt Werewolves are wont to call themselves) who took Ms. Samuels under his wing, supplied her with the medicine required to control her condition and gave her the knowledge and skills she would require to extract her revenge. She would later kill the werewolf who infected her and take control of his pack as a way of controlling the local werewolf population. Though she remains stoic and generally emotionless, Ms. Samuels appears to worry a great deal about her condition and never fails to take all conceivable steps to prevent her transformations, obviously fearing what may happen if she were to lose control.
Relationships:
Azaria Thomas: Ms. Samuels and Ms. Thomas have a strong friendship and knew each other before coming to work for the SRC, often working together on projects that were too much for either to handle individually. They make an excellent team and their undeniable chemistry allows both to perform on the fly with little verbal communication. By all accounts Ms. Thomas is also one of the few people in the department that may stand a chance against Ms. Samuels if she were to lose control of one of her transformations.
Victoria Lewis: Ms. Samuels and Ms. Lewis appear to get on fairly well. Both has increadible empathy for the other, due to their unfortunate conditions being very simular, unwanted and potentially very dangerous to everyone aroud them.
Gabriel L’Angelo: As with most of his teammates, Mr. L’Angelo isn’t on the best terms with Ms. Samuels, though she does tolerate him far better than Ms. Thomas or Mr. Finch. Whilst neither are exactly “friendly” towards the other, both have a readily apparent respect for the others abilities, and Mr. L’Angelo is more respectful of her condition due to it “not coming from her sin, but the sin of another being forced upon her” as he says.
Alex Finch: Ms. Samuels and Mr. Finch have what can best be described as a “working relationship”. She finds his knowledge of the arcane and his skill with potions to be useful but finds his attitude to be lazy and unprofessional, whilst he respects her abilities but feels she could “lighten up a bit”.Attachments:

JR19759KeymasterJust something quick for the CDC, seen as I haven’t entered in a while.
The House of the Fall rules over the Madansk lands, from the Juten Forests to the North to the Vogen Mountains to the South, controlling the people with fear, terror and an iron fist. But there are still those who would oppose them. A rebel force has armed its self in the East of the region and is sworn to take back its land. Though small in number compared to the soldier of the Fall, the rebels have passion, courage and the strength and skill of their leader, the mysterious knight known only as the Crimson Wolf.

Herr DParticipantI’m guessing Prof. May’s hair went white because he found the wrong thing? Good stuff.
May 29, 2017 at 9:53 am #145640
JR19759Keymaster@HerrD- In a way, yeah. Either that or he’s just prematurely grey (dude is meant to be in his late 40’s/ early 50’s so the silver fox look isn’t exactly unreasonable).
Anyways, my entry into this weeks contest.
