TP-Prometheus

Stealing fire
Introduction xxxxxOnce a secret government project to research mutant powers and attempt to utilize/replicate them. Now -- a little less with the 'secret' part. History xxxxxThe inadvertent brainchild of Rasheed and some of his colleagues, Prometheus, like many horrible things, was actually founded with good intentions. For all that's worth when it went so quickly sour. Originated as a project to more thoroughly understand and hopefully learn from mutant abilities, it soon developed the rather severe flaw of neglecting to obtain consent for any of the experiments it did, which slowly grew more and more invasive in scope. xxxxxThe first lab was opened in 2004, though at the time their methods were not so inhumane and their methods of obtaining subjects not so unethical. As the project grew in scope and the government got more and more heavily involved, pushing harder for the project to help in military ventures rather than its original focuses, their practices grew more brutal, eventually evolving into Prometheus as it is today -- an extensive nationwide operation that imprisons mutants and uses them as labrats in a wide variety of experiments. xxxxxThough operating for many years in secret, the zombie outbreak triggered by one of its ex-test subjects brought Prometheus's work into public notice. In July 2014 news footage of a massacre of labrats in Promethean custody created a storm of public outrage, leading to the arrest of many Prometheus officials. The project was officially frozen by the government and its operations ceased, though what has become of the labrats who were still in custody at the time is as yet unknown. Involved Characters On the inside Rasheed -- Prometheus co-founder, administrator of a number of labs throughout the northeast. Malthus -- not directly involved with Prometheus, but HAMMER supplies muscle in some of the lab security as well as apprehension of test subjects. Rescue team & supporters Jackson - Raid co-organizer Ryan - Raid co-organizer Hive Flicker Dusk Jim Micah Melinda Iolaus Ex-labrats Kay Ion Anima Mirror Parley Dorian Jeremy Kismet Lia Sebastian Shane Kai Ghost Prometheus NPCs Errata Prometheus has been quietly responsible for an enormous number of leaps in various fields; a large number of new treatments for varying ailments have stemmed from Prometheus research, as well as improvements in everything from solar power to crop fertilizers. Some of Prometheus's less savory developments have been brainchips that can control the behavior of their patients, and processes for transferring mutant powers to humans, though this latter has only been accomplished as yet with severe risk to both the mutant and human subjects. Though the project has been halted and all its labs officially shut down, it is not publicly known just how many labs there ever were -- or how many test subjects still imprisoned in them at its time of closure have yet to be freed. Though many of Prometheus's workers are aligned with or sympathetic to the Friends of Humanity, not all their employees are anti-mutant or even human. It takes a certain skewed moral compass to accept the things they do, but many of its workers are not operating out of any particularly anti-mutant bigotry so much as a more ends-justify-the-means attitude, seeing their subjects as unfortunate but necessary costs in the name of scientific progress and pointing to the very real leaps they have made in various fields as justification for their work.

Not overly possessed of conscience? Looking for work? Prometheus can help! Gifted - Ooor maybe your mutant power might help in the cause of SCIENCE. You want to help science, don't you? Meddlesome - Of course, some backwards-minded people don't like science. MAYBE you want to be working to take Prometheus down. Good luck!
