Department of Divine Intervention

The Characters all work for a top Secret Government Agency, a joint task force agreed upon by the US Government and the Gods to police the world and defend them from Titanspawn threats and Titanic plots. The U.S. government appreciates having a bead in on whats going and not being kept ‘out of the loop’ and the Gods find its much easier for their scions to succeed if they don’t have to avoid detection by the Government, but instead receive aid in covering up their exploits and bailing them out of potential legal crisis.

The Agency is above-top-secret able to supply the character with whatever identity and paperwork is required, but in general the characters are defaulted to FBI Agents. (Every FBI office building has a small area devoted to the DDI.)

Dramatis Personae

Sheila Henderson: [mental – Primary, Social – Secondary, Physical – Tertiary] One of the newest recruits, Scion of Athena. She is a 16 year old who is the all around ‘perfect girl.’ Mainly mental epics, she posses almost as many physical and social epics. Though she has some natural combat and social ability, she is currently filling the role as group ‘brain’ as she has yet to become comfortable in combat and social engineering aspects of her job.

Freddy Harrison: [Social – Primary, Mental – Secondary, Physical – Tertiary] Musician Scion of Erzulie, Freddy has decided to take his formidable social character and double it to become the team’s Brawler, (as the team was amazingly lacking in really ANY physical primary characters 0_0!) He’s got a ways to go, but hes got the heart and attitude to give it a go. (Freddy is the only one so far to gain a one-liner entry into my quote volumes with “Fuck you ugly! Soon I’ll have me an ugly-skin coat.”)

Samuel Rodriguez:[Mental – Primary, Physical – Secondary, Social –Tertiary] Scion of Tlaloc who stumbled across his heritage working as an archaeologist, he’s the one who has been with the Department the longest of the group – 7 years. He can be a little sensitive especially when it comes to being needled for his smoking. He possesses a Quetacoatlus birthright (not a quetalcoatl, but an actual dinosaur of a similar name).

Rex Collins:[Social – Primary, Mental – Secondary, Physical – Tertiary]Scion of Isis who has caused some controversy by also being guided by Bast (rivals), he is a complete and utter social character focusing on charisma and appearance, he is still not to be underestimated in combat. His main shtick is social-fu and annoying his fellow band mates by hitting on them (he’s not gender-biased.)

Li Xian:[Physical – Primary, Mental – Secondary, Social – Tertiary] Scion of Houyi, she defected to the U.S. several years ago during the Olympics, having returned to China only once with covert agents to recover her family, Li provides quiet contemplation as well as combat capabilities, especially ranged, as she is an expert marksman.

Jenner Blackwell:[Mental – Primary, Physical – Secondary, Social – Tertiary] Scion of Dian Cecht, this Pharmacist turned EMT provides the healing powers for the team as well as providing his annoying obsession with fictional doctors (the player himself has 80 – yes 80 – pages of doctor quotes pulled up and ready to use). Tends to be friendly and outgoing (though these traits generally come off as annoying rather than endearing) but will generally hold himself out of the random arguments that crop up amongst the band.

NPCs

Director Caufield: Mortal Director of the Department, he has been working for the Department for years and is an efficient leader. Provides briefings and all that buraeucractic red tape BS. Despite being mortal, he always happens to have gotten to where the players are assigned (they travel the US reporting to branch offices wherever they are working) to before they do, even if they travel with all do haste (no one has psychopomp though).

Rebekah Leslie: Cute as a button and bouncy as a spring this ever-cheery scion of Hephaestus is in charge of Requisitions for the band, she also often gifts them with some modified equipment for the mission of whatever she has been tinkering with lately. She is perpetually bopping to her modified Ipod (she has 7 terrabytes of information on it and doesn’t quite know if it’ll ever run out of space), knocking back untold volumes of strawberry yoohoo (and in light of this, almost always had a pink milk mustache which somehow makes this strange girl even cuter)and tinkering with new gadgets.
