This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Looking for a badge

I'm looking for an image of a badge to use for "The Agency" in my upcoming Scion game. Basically they're the Men In Black. If the badge actually says "The Agency" or "Men In Black" on it, that would rock.

I tried deviantart, but searching for badge got me a bunch of hits for foxes and wolves for some reason, while searching for "men in black" got me hits ranging from fan art from the movie to anything that had anything to do with either men, in, or black.

That's the best I could find.

Sweet!

Here's my first run with the badge generator. Help me make it nicer.



In the game the badges will be sort of like Doctor Who's psychic paper. You'll see whatever badge they want you to see, or whatever badge you expect to see if they're not actively projecting. But I want to have something to show the players if one of them rolls high enough on the perception check to see through it.

The "Paces Quod Alcedonia" is from the Transformers movie. It was on the decepticon police car's emblem. As far as I know, no movie geek has explained exactly what it means, although there are several possible interpretations. I'd love to know the exact translation if there's any Latin gurus in the house.

For some reason, it doesn't show up inline with the page; I have to fish the link out and view it directly.

Could use an emblem in the middle, if only a star. I liked the 3D globe for my Spycraft agency.

Sorry, I'll try it as an attachment.

Yeah, I couldn't see any that looked like they fit. I'll fiddle with them and see if any work well enough.

Silverlion, thanks! That looks cool too.

Here's the next attempt. The motto is "Order is truth." I'm not sure how I feel about it, but I'm drawing a blank on alternatives.
