Special Task Force 1

Art from Shadowrun

The Special Task Force are a sort of secret superhero/special operations military force of Archmages, and a couple Megami, who operate independent of any Queendom, who attempt to protect the world from threats no one is prepared for. They are sort of the Sex Mage World's equivalent to Civero's S.O.S. organization. I've not yet done a story of the STF team yet, but their original debut role was going to be in the apocalyptic Year 100 Story, which has since been scrapped.

The idea has since expanded in my mind, but by and large, I don't technically consider them canon, and don't really have any intent to do stories of them, because their concept really jackknifes the Sex Mage World away from it's intended femdom fun, and goes full bore into ridiculous, melodramatic superhero/adventure fiction. The STF protects the world from insane Cults, extra-dimensional horrors, murderous Megami, monsters born of mad science Sex Magic experiments, and mystical fae creatures. Hence, they are a big part of the Temael Origin/Ending versions of the setting but probably shouldn't be considered canon anywhere else, even compared the rest of the Sex Mage World's loose continuity. This arguably fits them just fine: for the most part, the world isn't aware they even exist, and that's exactly how they like to keep it.

Anyway, the team consists of several new characters, but also some who appear in various other works of mine:

Commander Gennedy DeVray, who first appeared in the Sex Mage Sojourn Centurions Crossover.

Pamela, an assassin who never appeared anywhere, but was going to have had a hand in dealing with the insidious Cult of the Murai.

Hikaru Kurasu and Fumi Wakahisa, two of the main characters from Sex Mage World: Saisho no San. Umiko Ryuki is not a member, but she does act as an informant for the group within Japan.

Rika, the only successful creation of Project: Centurion as detailed in the Pandora Secret Files.

Hope Escher, who appeared in the Hope story.

Devika Sai, who appeared as The First Megami.
