Essentially, its a cliched Bond rpg with either classic Bond characters and Bind himself, or, characters of our invention in the same context. Anyone in?

What would be the 'story'/goal of the agent(steal/liberate info, eliminate bad guy, ect)

I was rather thinking it ought to be Bond/un-named protaginist following and re-covering a stolen WMD, or possibly an informant/scientist.

sounds... interesting. potentually at least... not sure exactly what bond himself would have to do with NS though.

what the heck, i'm game. be prepared though: i may be really good, or a may suck. this is a little different.

Although this sounds interesting, I'm not sure if I understand. The thing about Bond is him working alone (apart from the standard girl) so how does that become a RP for more than one person?

a) He didn't say it had to be Bond himself. Only that it could be... or you could make up your own characters.

b) While Bond "works alone" there are always other characters that help him (i.e. Felix, a girl, etc.) There is often another character from a different agency that helps Bond. Like if they are in Tokyo, than the Japanese have an agent who helps him along.

c) You don't have to be a good person. The RP would also require the evil people and their henchman.

Orzhova is always having to deal with "glitches" in the budget mathematics that tend to lean in favor of the Church of Orzhova. Perhaps I could take on an antagonistic role.

Delta Green, with its expansive, paranormal, and conspiratorial nature, could provide an excellent avenue as an anatagonist, or even an aid to the main protaganist with one of their own.

Then are we in agreement that we run the rp, but with our own character (personification of nation if you wish) in place of one dericed directy from Bond?

sounds good to me. my nation doesn't have a "secret service" as such as yet.. but that doesn't mean to say it doesn't have some plenty sneaky people around. of course, haveing reached an agreement, we would then need some sort of ... plot... or something.
