NPC BRAINSTORMING

The main Aegis Force consists of up to fifteen imPorts, but who keeps their base in Maurtia Falls running while they're off fighting crime on the Moon? To answer that question, six NPC TEAM MEMBERS have been approved for the team to serve as a standing HQ staff, answering the door for guests or fixing the sinks as needed.

ICly, this expansion also reflects Aegis' mission to build cooperation between imPort and native for the shared goal of protecting the innocent. To that end, Aegis has recruited the best volunteers that can be found among the Porter cities from humanitarian, law enforcement, or metahuman backgrounds to be part of the unit. And YOU can help create these new additions to the team!

Read the below descriptions, and if you have an idea of a character who would be a good part of Aegis' stories, fill out the below form to flesh them out. Any un-claimed characters will be created by Jesse. Once every NPC has a profile, a new page will be added to the team community with their information, and the FAQ will be updated accordingly. The roles are as follows:

ADMIN: basically the God of the Base, who keeps everything running behind the scenes with regards to appointments, payroll, scheduling, and more. Works at the front desk in the lobby.

INTEL/LIAISON: The person who talks to the government, local emergency services, and other sources offscreen to keep Aegis fully briefed and informed on information relevant to their tasks while maintaining relations with their allies. This person is also ICly in charge of creating the monthly Press Releases for the Majority Report. Works in the Command Centre.

MAINTENANCE: like the Admin, but in charge of keeping the physical base and its assets running, including vehicles.

MEDICAL: Works in the infirmary. For when someone wants to get their character patched up off-screen after a mission and there are no healers available to arrange something with

SECURITY: full-time armed sentry who welcomes and processes visitors and stands alert for signs of intrusion, espionage, or other mischief. Usually stationed at the front entrance.

The sixth NPC is a Trainee, an NPC metahuman seeking guidance and teaching from Aegis to control their powers. This NPCs bio is currently pending mod approval, but the other five have been pre-approved.

NAME: Laura Crews
AGE: 16
BACKGROUND: Laura was thrilled when her metahuman fire-breathing powers manifested in 2016 (see: the Extremis crisis), until a fateful burp set her parents' home on fire. No one was seriously injured, but it was still a traumatic event for a young child, and Laura has been fearful and ashamed of her powers ever since, which has affected her schooling, socialization, and emotional health. It was her idea to approach Aegis Force for help learning how to control her abilities and use them productively, and she has aspirations to re-invent herself as a hero, instead of the freakish failure she currently perceives herself to be.
DESCRIPTION/APPEARANCE: Sadie Sinks
EXTRA DETAILS: She's at Aegis HQ for training at least once a week after school. She lives with her parents in a small apartment close by in Maurtia Falls, which makes it easier to fit this extracurricular into her schedule. She has few friends at school (burning down your house isn't great for your reputation) and is sometimes targeted by local punks who either fear her or see her power as a potential asset if they can lure her into crime. Her dating life is a disaster even by 16-year-old standards.

She thinks imPorts and Aegis are extremely cool and tries hard to impress team members, but struggles to adapt to the disciplined, regimented atmosphere around the base. Like many in Maurtia Falls, she often views official rules as suggestions or obstacles rather than guidelines, but has her heart in the right place and gives her best in training. Even if she sometimes has to be stopped from live-streaming or live-bweeting her every visit to Aegis HQ in ways not conducive to security.
