Im still in and waiting to role
Is it too late?
Hi, just found this...is it too late to add another player into the mix?
I have a decent enough background for a character and I think it would fit in nicely.
The character concept is that (Kevin Styles) is in his last year at a post graduate school studying psychology and has no real clue that the Shadow exists at all until he either meets up with it somehow, maybe by accident, or somebody else comes and recruits him or something. I was thinking that perhaps there is something to do with his past that he can't remember, but sometimes he has really strange dreams and can't figure them out; they confuse him but he believes that they are trying to tell him something. Being a nerd most of his life he's not really physical, but there is something different about him and most people shy away from him. What it is, neither he nor anybody else he knows knows what it is that makes him different.
-------------------
A question or two (or maybe more): I think this character could fit in with the group, if you allow him. I was wondering, though, if you would be allowing psionics into the game? If so, then at some point in the future he would gain some levels into one of the psionic classes. If not, then as he learns about the magic of the world it will trigger something inside him that way also, and he will learn some arcane spells.
I hope he will fit in. Let me know and I'll have a character ready tonight.

IC Thread Prelude
DM-Just wanted to provide more details as to how you ended up at Dept.7 in New Orleans and what exactly they do.
Those of you with a military background were approached by former commanding officers and told you were be commissioned by your government for a top secret assignment of importance to the security of all citizens of the United States...
Those without a military background were approached about a government job through an fbi field agent staing that your specific talents were needed for a top secret position within an agency of the United States for the security of all that is held dear by our country...
After accepting the positions you were each at seperate times sent through a battery of mental, physical and psychological tests to affirm you were in condition for the job. Up to this point you have only been told very vauge details about Department 7, where you will be working and you official job...you were told that after passing the tests you will be debriefed.
The tests were difficult but after pulling through you were each given a one week period to take care of any unfinished business before you are to meet at the Pinnacle Scyscraper in downtown New Orleans...it is the tallest structure in the city towering over all other buildings at 50 floors high. It is known to be the center of corporate operations for many companies based out of the bayou state of Louisiana. You note with the address only states to go to the information desk in the lobby and ask for Director Stevens Office...

Jade, sounds good. 
I do have two (or more) questions:
1) Sounds like we have a dress code? Is that true?
2) Licenses and firearms? Are we aloud to pack are "heat"? Do we have licenses for said firearm or do we take are own chances when we carry them? (I guess that was more than one question...)
3) Wealth, how much of are equipment is purchased by Dept 7 and how much do we have to pay for are selves?
4) Do we start posting "now" or do you plan on giving a post saying so?
