System: Scion: Hero Player Count: 4ish Style of Play: Talking, Intrigue, and shooting things Allowed Content:
Scion: Hero/Demigod/God
Scion:Companion
Basically whatever, just ask and I'll mess with it
Character Creation: Standard according to Scion: Hero with the following exceptions
A unique new ability called "SCP." This is similar to the "Occult" ability; it represents your knowledge and general familiarity with the SCP and its operations. It doesn't indicate rank so much as study and ability to use their systems to find more information
All players start with one dot in Marksmanship, Brawl, and SCP. This represents the training your characters received when they joined the Icarus Initiative
Experience: I'll dole it out as things go on. No more than Legend 2 at character creation.
Alignment: Try not to be overtly evil or otherwise non-cooperative with a military organization. You volunteered for this, after all.
Other Notes:
The Icarus Initiative. That's what they called it - the men in black who approached you with an offer: join the SCP, and experience a world hidden even to the divine. Maybe you didn't accept right away, but eventually you signed up, and where whisked away to [REDACTED] for training and briefing.
The Icarus Initiative. Meant to be a new line of defense against the monstrosities contained within the SCP. Ichor, in their estimation, just may be the edge needed to confront some of the more dire circumstances that seem inevitable with so much evil holed up in one place. Trained and briefed, they gave your team a personal barracks to live and work out of. Carefully monitored, of course, as everything else within the SCP is, but comfortable, with access to SCP files and information for when you will inevitably need it.
The Icarus Initiative. Now, well entrenched in your daily duties, you eagerly await, and at the same time dread, the day it is deemed prudent to send you in. Soon, they will have to rely on you, but with in a termite's mound of containment procedures and research, you can't help but wonder if, somewhere, there's a file with your picture and a number.
I may or may not be playing Cesar Millan. Time will tell.

Dean O'Connell, former P.I., Scion of Lugh and the Tuatha Dé Danann is ready.
Inspiration is a dash The Shadow and some of Supernatural's Winchester boys.
