"In a world shrouded in darkness, we are the light!"

I have a habit of tossing around story ideas in my head. One of them is about an elite team who polices the supernatural. My original idea involved different characters, but the same concept. However, after commissioning  tatious for this awesome piece, I'm thinking I might re-work the story to have it about anthros instead and revolve around Jessie and Aria.
Here's what I have so far:

It starts with Aria as a detective who has a run in with the supernatural. Her survival and display of skills in the encounter earns her an invite with a secret organization that deals with such things. Here she meets Jessie, who was more or less, raised in the organization after displaying the rare talent of magic when he was very young. He already has years of experience and now is partnered up with Aria and has to teach her how to be a an Inquisitor. Inquisitors are like detectives and it's their job to investigate the unknown and eliminate the hostile. Sometimes they must apprehend them and sometimes they must protect them. It's not just a straight forward search and destroy for not all the creatures they hunt are evil.

Jessie and Aria get a bit of a character make-up for this story to make it more serious. They are no longer siblings of any kind and don't even know each other until Aria is requited.
Aria is a bit more gruff and tough as nails. She has to be in order to be a detective in her city. She's a little more tomboyish and can hang with any male in a fight or a bar. She dresses in pants a lot more, but still dresses provocatively and might wear a dress if the mood fits her. She's very proficient with guns and hand-to-hand combat and as her time as an Inquisitor develops, melee weapons too.
Jessie is still somewhat the opposite to Aria, but while he is usually bubbly and girly, he's more a of a serious character this time around. Of course, Jessie is still a crossdresser, preferring female clothing over male's. His reasons are not clear though. Jessie still acts feminine and somewhat girly, just not to the extent he normally would. He is for the most part a serious character and as an Inquisitor takes his job seriously. While Aria is more the brawn in this story, Jessie is the brains. Highly educated with a vast knowledge. I'm thinking of having him lean towards being like Brennan from "Bones" (great show if you haven't seen it) and having be somewhat of a bookworm and nerd with a habit of explaining things all the time and being technical. Leaving it up to Aria to take the stick out of his ass (no, there was no symbolism meant there XP). Jessie is very talented with magic and with the wave of his hands and uttering the right incantation he can unleash powerful spells that can do damage, mend objects, heal wounds, detect things, read minds, etc. His knowledge and his imagination are his only limitations. However, there is a catch and limit to his power. Can you guess? ;)
That's right: Bondage! Basically, the only way Jessie can cast a spell except for a few very minor tricks, is to speak the words of the spell and use his hands to direct it. If he doesn't have the ability to do either, than the spell won't cast. The laws of magic are cooky like that in this world. So all one has to do his bind his hands behind him and gag him and he is completely helpless. Of course that goes without saying. :P
So needless to say, Jessie would get tied up and gagged a lot. :D And with him wearing skimpy goth girl outfits like this, all the better. ^_^

So what do you think? Worthy concept? :)


Aria's outfit was inspired by a cosplayer's take on a female version of Dante from Devil May Cry:

And Jessie's outfit was inspired by a commission done by Deviant Art artist Horus-Goddess (a truly awesome artist! check her out):
