Pre & Post Rifts British Psi-Corps

[Kaleb]

In the British Isles sourcebook it talks about the Caliber-X weapon that Arthu carries. It was made by a division of the British military which was creating a new division of psionic powered individuals with equipment and weaponry that was psionic based. It states that this would have been a new player in the weapons market and really brought the British Military to the forefront. However, the Rifts came shortly afterward and most of these weapons were destroyed.

My question is this what if they had survived the Rifts. What if some of their psychics had clarevoiant visions and were able to create a hidden bunker in a remote location to protect some of their people? If so, what would they be doing now? Would they feel drawn to a place like Psyscape to join with other Psychics or would they try to restore some semblance of British soverignty to the land?

While I was thinking about this I started thinking about the types of weapons and tech devices they might have and decided to create a few of my own similar to the Caliber X sword. Here is one of them that I came up with:

Spectral Goggles
These specially designed goggles which allow the wearer to see the spectral aura of a person being viewed. This is handy for determining possesion in humans and animals. They also use these goggles to find potential candidates to induct into this British Military organization as it can detect higher levels of PPE & ISP in the people being viewed. Each set of goggles is linked to an individual users brain wave patterns as a security precaution against other organizations trying to steal it from field agents and reverse engineering the tech. They are powered by the user and can be maintained for 30 minutes per activation.

They are basically equivelant to the See Aura & Detect Psionics powers. They are coded to the brain wave patterns of the individual agent so that others cannot use them.

I have not included an ISP cost at this time but will in the future (I do not have my books with me to do a proper calculation).

In the future I would love to flesh out an organization like this just to see how it goes. If anyone has any cool ideas they would like to submit I would really like to hear them.

Someone is working on an update to England. They are still adding material to it. I think it was Lenwen! You could check with him on it!

There was a CE article in the Rifter a while back with some PSI devices.
