The SCP Foundation

Strange question for you folks, would any of you use both the SCP Foundation and the SCP's in your game? If you're curious as to what I'm talking about, here's the website: http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-series#001

I think those thing might be a little much in the Nightbane world. Perhaps good for a side adventure or two but too many of them and you'd detract from the main focus of the game. It's a little like the Warehouse 13 show but without the censors

True, but think of it as something that the NightLords WANT to keep secret from the public.

What the heck is the SCP Foundation? I clicked around the website, but even the FAQ didnt' really say what the heck it was.

The SCP Foundation is a group of people that basically go after and capture (and then hide away) anything and everything that would either harm humanity, destroy the world or just destroy the written history of the planet for Civilians. Think of it something along the lines of what happened at the end of IndianaJones and the Lost Ark.

You need to actually read through the articles in order to start to get the feel for how powerful the organization is. It's less kin to the Indiana Jones warehouse and slightly more kin to Warehouse 13. I'd recommend their top rated pages.

This article in particular seems to be a good summary of the SCP organization.

I said like that as in "A similar concept" not "identically powerful/massive/depressing"/over the top" ;)

I agree with you. The way I see it (for making a decent story anyway) would be easily integrated for you game. Maybe fix it up so that either it being a extremely secret organization that's trying to protect the world or have it so the Night Lords are running it so they can figure out ways to make their conquest easier to do.
