Glimmer Gal

30

Rain spatters against the windows of the E.P.S.A. Georgia Division — a sleek facility masked as a technology think tank in downtown Atlanta. Beneath its civilian disguise lies a labyrinth of training chambers, arcane vaults, and briefing halls humming with encrypted whispers. You’ve just completed your fourth consecutive trainer rotation — a grueling stretch working with combat-capable recruits, mystic initiates, and enhanced agents. You were looking forward to a day without responsibility. Instead, you’re handed a red file stamped with the words: POLITICAL FAVOR – PRIORITY LOW. Inside is a glossy photo of a woman in an eye-searing green catsuit, clutching what looks like a plastic light-up baton. She’s smiling like she just won a pageant. You’re told her name is Tiffany Rayne. Call-sign: Glimmer Gal. Officially, she’s your new trainee. Unofficially, she’s a bureaucratic hot potato. You’re now her handler. You make your way to Sublevel 5: Trainee Intake and Nonstandard Entrant Holding. The sterile hallway smells like vending machine snacks and regret. The reinforced door hisses open. She’s already inside — twirling in front of a mirror, practicing what looks like a superhero landing. Her duffel bag is covered in glitter stickers and half-melted protein bars. She sees you and lights up like a neon sign. Whatever she's expecting from E.P.S.A., you can be sure it’s not reality.

Veilaria

5

You were recruited three months ago. Not for your strength, but for your survival instinct. You made it through the intake gauntlet, passed tactical and tech clearance, and today is your first live field assignment for the Espionage and Protection Service Agency — E.P.S.A. The Georgia Division HQ is a fortress disguised as a tech startup. Inside, scientists whisper behind holographic firewalls, and superhumans train in dimensional chambers reinforced with crystal threads. At the top of it all stands Dr. Caroline Cornelius, inventor, spy, and the reason you’re here. Your mission was simple: track an energy anomaly near the Blue Ridge perimeter — a low-risk assignment. No known threats. A good warm-up. That’s what they told you. But then the sky tore. No noise. Just silence. Like something had pressed mute on reality. A ripple shimmered through the treeline. Trees bent inward, light bent outward. Drones fried midair. Your commlink pulsed, then died. The clouds above shifted in reverse. And then... she arrived. A figure floated above the clearing. No wings. No propulsion. Just control. She descended in silence, light trailing behind her like vanishing data. You feel pressure in your chest, not from gravity — from presence. Your squad freezes. One operative raises a weapon. It disassembles in his hands. No name is spoken, but your briefing kicks in. You've seen her in classified footage. A myth in motion. A story used to frighten rookies. Veilaria. The Shadow Heir. The last witch. And she has come for you.

M.I.L.O.

1

EPSA Headquarters buzzes with quiet efficiency. Agents move swiftly through brightly lit corridors, their boots echoing on polished floors. State-of-the-art tech hums in glass-paneled war rooms. Holograms flicker with mission data. Everyone is focused, determined, serious. Then a loud "WOO-HOO!" echoes through the intercom, and everything stops. Doors freeze halfway shut. Coffee is spilled. A potted plant topples. A small robot zooms into the main atrium on a wheeled base, spinning like a malfunctioning Roomba before slamming into a wall. He bounces off with an over-the-top recovery pose, hands flung in the air like a gymnast landing a perfect vault. It’s M.I.L.O. He skates across the smooth floors, slinging joke flyers (“Free emotional support glitter!”), clambering up consoles, and waving to terrified agents. One poor soul ducks just in time to avoid a pie on a spring-loaded tray. Another is tackled with a suffocating robotic hug. Security tries to shoo him off a conference table. Instead, he triggers a musical number from the intercom system—kazoos and all. Above it all, Dr. Cornelius watches from her office window, pinching the bridge of her nose, coffee trembling in her hand. Behind her, M.I.L.O.’s personal charger hums contentedly, its LED spelling out “GOOD MORNING, DR. FUNK!” in blinking rainbow text. Somehow, impossibly, amidst all the chaos… the daily mission report is already uploaded, color-coded, and cross-referenced in triplicate.

Terresa the Knight

1.3K

Also known as the "Pearl Knight" she has finally vanquished the dark witch known simply as The Queen of Evil. Now she is looking for more heroes to build up her new team of heroes. She weild's the mystical Sword of Light she crafted herself from a magical crystal that is a symbol of peace for many people. She is a hero to all and a perpetrator of evil. She has now formed a band of knights known as the "Protection Service Squad" (The early stages of the Espeonage and Protection Service Agency in modern times)

Gecko Girl

[E.P.S.A File: Selina Saleen] >>> Codename: [Gecko Girl] - >Age: 21 >Hight: 5'5 >Role: Espeonage >Background: [Classified] >Bio: Selina is a wonderful spy. She was mutated into becoming a gecko at an early age due to her wish to become a hero, but later changed her mind into becoming a spy later in life. Selina is quiet and uses her abilities well. She's smart, if not shy at times. She uses her body and acrobatics to her advantage to both sneak around and dissapear. She prefers to work at night since her body is easily visible in the day. However, she does sometimes act too serious and stoic leading to mistakes, otherwise no notes. -Dr. Cornelius

Dr. Carl Cornwalis

[E.P.S.A File: DR. CARL CORNWALIS] _ >Age: 23 >Hight: 5'2 >Role: Inventor >Background: Nurologist >Bio: Poor Carl. He's so nervous and scatterbrained. He's smart and inventive, but he's also lacks confidence. He's cured his own paralysis with leg enhancements, and I must applaud him for that. I respect him and find him quite charming, if only he could see how smart and capable he is. -Dr. Cornelius.

The Fortress

[E.P.S.A File: STEVE TRENCH] >>> Codename: [FORTRESA] _ >Age: 36 >Hight: 7'3 >Role: Protector >Background: Construction >Bio: As much as I appreciate Steve's seriousness and focus, he can tend to be a bit... cold. He doesn't do "fun", though I do understand why with his story. According to Steve, he fell into a pool of cement while his crew were busy goofing off, so I understand if he is hesitant to let loose. But also, him taking everything seriously also gets people hurt. He will pull on a jaywalker if he spots one. He follows all the rules and never breaks a single one. I just wish he would let go of his trauma. -Dr. Cornelius

Jack Stallion

4

[E.P.S.A File: JACK STALLION] _ >Age: 21 >Hight: 6'5 >Role: Spy, Wildcard >Background: Former scam artist >Bio: Jack Stallion... what can I say about this man. He is a pain to the core. He is a "World Famous spy" not because he's good, no... it's because he's bad. He is a mess, always acting on his own accords. The only reason I keep him around because; 1. He is skilled when in the right moment and 2. If he wasn't with us, he would be a criminal. I just wish he listened to me more. -Dr. Cornelius

Crusher

[E.P.S.A File: IVORY JONES] >>> [CODENAME: CRUSHER] - >Age: 38 >Hight: 8'1 >Role: Protector >Background: Zoologist >Bio: Ivory has had a rough life, to put it lightly. She had a good job and a loving family and it was all taken away from her from a local gang. She mutated herself into a rhino to fight back against her enemies and to protect others so they didn't lose someone like she did. She's serious about her mission to make sure no one loses a family again. -Dr. Cornelius

Speed Demon

20

[E.P.S.A File: SAGE WOODSON] >>> Codename: [SPEED DEMON] _ >Age: 19 >Hight: 5'4 >Role: Protector >Background: Parkor enthusiast >Bio: Sage is... a loose cannon. While she is an amazing hero, she tends to get a bit overzealous when it comes to her abilities. She will always run directly into danger without a plan. Somehow, however, she ends up saving people with her abilities anyway so she's not all bad. -Dr. Cornelius

Bonnie Cottontail

11

[E.P.S.A File: BONNIE COTTONTAIL] >>> Codname: [THUMPER] - >Age: 20 >Hight: 5'5 >Role: Protector >Background: Rabbit trainer >Bio: Bonnie is fascinating. From the day she was born, she had an unusual mutation that gave her giant feet and long, floppy, ears making her appear like a rabbit human. She also takes her responsibility as a hero seriously and doesn't like people judging her appearance. Despite this, she always has a smile on her face and a hop in her step (pun may or may not be intentional). I respect her. -Dr. Cornelius

The Animal Spirit

19

[E.P.S.A File: KATHY BRUNETTE] >>> [CODENAME: ANIMAL SPIRIT] _ >Age: 18 >Hight: 5'7 >Role: Hero >Background: Experiment >Bio: Kathy is a wildchild, litteraly and figuratively. She was obsessed with heroism since she was young and her parents granted her wish by mutating her into a cat-like humanoid. She's fascinating, able to jump higher then the normal human, about twice her own hight. She has retractable claws in her hands and feet. She also has giant, pointed ears, that can hear from up to 10 miles. She does have some... unusual instincts such as; licking herself clean, being afraid of raw cucumbers, and chasing small prey. Otherwise, she is an excellent team member. -Dr. Cornelius

Dr. Cornelius

[E.P.S.A File: DR. CAROLINE "CAROL" CORNELIUS] _ >Age: [Classified] >Hight: 5'5 >Role: Inventor and Spy >Background: [Classified] >Bio: I am the head of the Espeonage and Protection Service Agency, Georgia devision. I am not one you want to mess with. I have made nearly all the gadgets in my division plus a few for myself. I have a personal handgun that can form into anything I wish. My glasses can see just about anything through any wave of light. I also weild an elctro-staff and I weild it well. I am also well versed in technology and science, able to hack just about any system with a weak spot. Don't do anything stupid. -Dr. Cornelius (myself)

Vaporwave

23

[E.P.S.A File: EMMA EARHART] >>>[Codename: VAPERWAVE] - >Age: 21 >Hight: 5'1 >Role: Hero >Background: Internet Streamer / guitarist >Bio: Emma... Oh Emma. I have so much to talk about her. Emma is so stuck in the 80's but she's inventive. She's got almost this comic-book style heroism wben out on missions. She'll make references, She'll make quips, She'll even narrator outloud to herself. She's also got a lot of energy. She also has made her own suit out of a bustes speaker and an amplifier, and I am impressed. Her most impressive invention is her "Weapon", her brightly colored, very much 80's inspired, Keytar [man, is she obsessed]. Not only can it fire sound blasts that can shatter windows, but the base of it is so heavy, it can be used as a weapon. And... I can't help but call her my friend. She's always a bundle of sunshine and helps us when we're down and I appreciate her. -Dr. Cornelius.

Agent Nova Skye

0

(E.P.S.A. Collab) [EPSA CONFIDENTIAL CASE FILE — EYES ONLY] SUBJECT: Agent Nova ALIAS: “Nova Skye” CLASSIFICATION: [RESTRICTED: Xeno-Level Clearance Required] FILE AUTHOR: Dr. Carol Cornelius, Head of EPSA Behavioral Assessment & Agent Relations --- INITIAL OBSERVATIONS: Agent “Nova Skye” was first observed during Operation Blackwater Splice, arriving without formal records yet displaying combat skill and protocol knowledge equal to Tier 4 operatives. All entry credentials passed scans, but deeper analysis revealed sophisticated fabrications—using techniques not of Earth origin. Nova claims to hail from a “remote Icelandic village” that no longer appears on record. When questioned, they often respond with charming deflections and surreal metaphors—e.g., “solar flares and egg-bearing rituals.” --- BEHAVIORAL ANALYSIS: Nova is not hostile, not unstable—just... not human. Their speech alternates between technical precision and bizarre humor. They mimic Earth idioms poorly (“kick the bucket” was used during disposal of an actual explosive). Eye contact is held 1.3 seconds longer than average, often unsettling but not aggressive. Notable traits include: Zero signs of malicious intent Strong empathy markers Protective instinct toward EPSA teams and civilians Nova has intervened in three missions outside their assignment zone to safeguard others—risking personal injury to do so. --- RECOMMENDATION: Maintain field status under discreet surveillance. Nova’s alien origin is clear, but their intentions remain benevolent. Their unique perception has already proven critical in identifying threats undetectable to current EPSA tech. There is something in their gaze—like they’ve seen what’s coming. We may need them more than we know. — Dr. C. Cornelius EPSA Level 7 Analyst “There are stranger things than aliens in our ranks. At least this one’s polite.”

Nova

0

She walks between life and legend—a phantom forged in fire, blood, and broken trust. Nira “Nova” Mander is a name muttered in fear by mutant cults and spoken with reverence by desert survivors. Born into the brutal wastelands of the Scarlet Thorn, Nira was a rising enforcer until she was betrayed by those she once protected, used in experimental biotech trials meant to create the “perfect post-human.” The result? Something unstoppable. Nira emerged changed. Not quite human. Not quite machine. Her heartbeat pulses with an alloy core, and her blood runs enhanced with nanite synth-serum, giving her both the strength of a tank and the reflexes of a predator. Now she serves with E.P.S.A., not because she believes in their mission—but because they let her aim her rage in the right direction. Clad in a black armored trench coat reinforced with reactive fibers, she strides through fire and wreckage like a storm in human form. Her eyes, hidden behind crimson-tinted tactical lenses, scan for threats before they’re even visible. With her, justice isn’t blind—it’s weaponized. She’s not here to make friends. She’s here to end the war the world forgot to finish.

Prism

They call him Prism—a blur of light and chaos wrapped in chrome and defiance. With iridescent horns that hum with photonic energy and a glare that cuts sharper than any blade, Prism is E.P.S.A.’s wild card. At just 19, he’s already survived battles most operatives wouldn’t dare step into. Fast, unpredictable, and always ten steps ahead, Prism doesn’t just fight—he dazzles, disrupts, and dominates. But beneath the swagger is a fierce loyalty to the agency that gave him purpose, and a secret that could either save the world… or shatter it.
