"Sneakier than SHIELD, Classier than HYDRA, more Ambitious than Weapon Plus."
In What Lies Beneath Astrid Bloom continued with her nefarious schemes. It's revealed that she has made contact with the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club, who has an interest in Quentin Quire – a potential avatar of the cosmic Phoenix Force. This thread sets up a coup where Astrid and Quentin take over the Inner Circle rather than act as its unwitting lackeys. In the end the London base is wiped out entirely, and the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club is consolidated and reborn.
As always, the individuals of the new Inner Circle will have their own grand agenda’s, as well as shared goals for more power, wealth, change or even domination. But let none be fooled, the Black King and Queen will reign supreme at the head of the cleansed hierarchy.
If you’ve a discrete, somewhat shady character with dreams of doing big things and rubbing shoulders with the elite, then show us some love here or via pm! At the moment, Quire will consider your interest. Only the crème de la crème need apply! (Not really but you know, in the spirit of things an' stuff.)
Based in NY & London, operatives are mobile.
The Inner Circle
[*]Black King - Quentin "Omega" Quire
[*]Black Knight - open
[*]Black Bishop - open
[*]Black Rook - open
[*]White King - open
[*]White Knight - open
[*]White Bishop -open
[*]White Rook - open
[*]Red Queen - Madelyne Grey-Summers
[*]Red Knight - Rowan "Warp" Hawthorne
[*]Red Bishop - open
[*]Red Rook - open
[*]Black Pawns - open
[*]White Pawns - open
[*]Red Pawns - open
[*] A King or Queen heads their particular color faction, decides upon future goals, consorts with the other variably colored Kings or Queens in reference to grand agendas and keeps an eye out for new talent in addition to maintaining their underlings. A King or Queen who proves incapable of maintaining the level of awareness and rule required will likely find themselves displaced.
[*] Knights are generally singularly trusted by the King or Queen they serve and act in their stead, speaking with their leader's authority and are expected to protect their liege and basically act as their leader's primary go-to guy or girl.
[*] Bishops are potent in their own right and are expected to pay keen attention to their color and its make up, in addition to the other two. In most cases it is a Bishop who is most likely to potentially threaten a King or Queen, though the concept that no one is ever totally safe is a necessary culling credo to insure the Inner Circle is as potently viable as it should be.
[*] Rooks are often underestimated, but usually see to the details and operate their own networks of informants, brokering information both to other colors and their own as it best serves their faction's interest or their own. Of course it varies from Rook to Rook as to what their unique specialty is.
[*] Pawns are the rank and file, though they still outrank any and every 'normal' member of the Hellfire Club. These men and women may simply prefer to be the distant power behind the proverbial thrones or they may be paying their dues and earning the trust of a given color faction. They are expected to follow the behests of those above them as required as long as it won't bring ruin upon themselves.
