Super Secret Special Supernatural or Scientific Situation Squad Meme

You've surely seen something similar. An ensemble of people unique people all brought together to face off against equally unique threats that cannot be overcome with conventional methods. The squad has few members but has existed in some form for a very long time indeed.

"There was an idea. To bring together a group of remarkable people. So when we needed them, they could fight the battles that we never could."


1 Post your character to the meme outlining a few details about them and what sort of role they play on or opposing the team. Additionally, playing someone caught up in the squad's business without any connection to them is also possible.

2 Tag others, either using some of the prompts below or of your own. Presuming CR will usually be implied, but playing a newbie to the team is good too.

Ooohhhhhhhh nooooooooooooo.

[Orihime slowly inches into view, just barely next to the doorframe of the kitchen, holding a large headlamp in her hands. She's not looking at Damon, but. Come on. There's no one else there. And her attempts at being subtle are laughable.]

I need to test out this fog-piercing headlamp, but when will we get a foggy night? It just can't be predicted! If only there were fog around here.

[IF ONLY. ...Okay, so it's a pitiful excuse to see the fog-summoning powers firsthand, but as the newest (and probably youngest) member of the team, she's been dying to see everyone else's powers in action, and that includes fog conjuration.]
