Re: [ORE] Progenitor: Gods and G-Men

If you don't mind two being tier 3 and two being tier 4 you could have the Domestic Security and organized crime FBI agents be among those empowered by Lyndon B Johnson at one of his speeches (like Brenda Harkness and Bryson Mass-Thierry) and then have them empower the other two.  The organized crime FBI agent would likely have reason to interact with an FBI informant mobster and either one of them could have reason to have interacted with an FBI forensics person.

I thought of doing something with Zipperneck (also easy to arrange), but I like seeing what happens when the PCs get their powers a bit earlier on in the timeline, before knowledge of the super-stuff becomes more commonplace.

Amy Sykes is definitely a nice option for a Tier 2 who has most of her slots unused for most of the canonical timeline.

What about Amy Sykes? She could have easily been in FBI custody for a short period after Zipperneck and Grimes kidnapping attempt went awry. While in custody, she could have easily gotten upset enough to explode, thus infecting three agents on the other side of a wall.

So I'm starting up a new Progenitor game, so expect to see more messages from me asking to help me finesse this power or that power, etc.

Right now, though, we're just starting off and no one has powers yet. We've got a group centered around the FBI in 1968 - one agent from the Domestic Security (Counter intelligence - the part of the FBI worried about countering the KGB, not the part targeting hippies and civil rights activities), one from organized crime, a mobster who is an in-to-his-neck informant to the FBI (he has Loyalty: FBI, but no Loyalties for his organized crime bretheren, so he knows which side his bread is buttered on), and then a forensics scientist working for the FBI (who is also the only woman in the group).

I'm thinking I want them pretty high Tier, 3 or 4, because I find the high power levels most interesting. So I'm trying to figure out how they get exposed - the obvious angle is to be exposed by one of Hoover's progeny, but that puts them at Tier 5 which is a lower Tier than I'd like. I'm sort of mulling now that maybe they're exposed by one of Colt's progeny, or one of the soldiers teleported back to the USA by [I forget her name but she's that Tier 2 teleporter that sends people home].

If anyone else has clever ideas on who might spore them though, I'd love to hear them. I like clever.

Also if anyone has any clever ideas on what a Domestic Security agent, an Organized Crime agent, a mob informer, and a forensic scientist might all be working on together at the start of things. I know the CIA was all about using the mob to try and get shit done overseas, but figuring out internal threats Domestic Security might need the mob for is a bit harder.
